Santa's coming, and he's bringing rockets!

Aren't all these different event pictures great? It's ok, you don't have to thank me.

That's right! The Escapist is holding another team-based extravaganza! So haul out your holly, mull your mistletoe, and drop your stockings to prepare for a full day of festive fragging!

Join the Escapists TF2 event group to receive notifications concerning the event, but all you need to know is that's it's on Christmas Day, all day long, on the Escapist's TF2 Server!

If you havn't seen one of these before

  • Join the group by typing this address into you Steam browser: www.steamcommunity.com/groups/EscapistTF2
  • Alternatively, if you can't find the group, add me (hbrutush114) to your Steam friends list and it should be listed on my profile with the other Escapist game groups.
  • Check the group announcements for date details, in this case on Christmas Day.
  • Remember- There is no set time for these events, you need to hop on the server and use steam to invite your friends on.
  • Server Details

    To find the Escapist server:

  • Open up TF2
  • Go to "Find Servers" -> "Favourites" -> "Add Favourite"
  • Put the details in here and it should show up. Here are the details:

  • tf2.escapistmagazine.com:13013

    If you have any problems, PM me and I'll see what I can do.

    Have fun, and a merry Christmas!

    No reason not to! Use the 360 group to organise an event on the Xbox!

    Just take over some random server!

    I'm down for this! although I would like to know what time zone it is, me being in England might actually help because I could play for ages after Christmas dinner. It probably doesn't matter anyways but still.

    About as playable as Big Rigs racing.

    Well, not that bad. But no, I can't play on low. Not even medic.

    Did.... did you just advertise my army group? Why thank you! In honour of this, I think that a coinciding Christmas game night for the 360 group is in order.

    Sounds very interesting. I could play team fortress 2 on low settings, I just haven't tried. I might just wait until the next free weekend to test it out. (yes my name is ubersawer as I play the game primarily on the 360 and want the updates)

    There's no set time. It's more of an agreement that anyone on their PC at the same time as you will play some TF2. Or T.R.O.A.E. will eat their souls.

    You need to use steam to round people up. I'll help when I can, too.
