Will We Get Team Fortress 3 In The Next 5 Years?

[ReasonableAdult]

I loved TF2 so much...Nothing scratches that itch for me anymore. I admit I haven't played Overwatch, but....I want TF3.

Do you think we'll get Team Fortress 3 in the next 5 years?

I think not.

 

[Anustart]

It ain't happening.

 

[Dedazen]

Of course not.

 

[-Tom]

no

 

[JehutyRunner]

Valve can't count to three.

I thought we established this already???

 

[BasilZero]

Nice joke.

 

[Randdalf]

I wish. Still the king. Overwatch doesn't hold a candle.

 

[SunshinePuppies]

Did valve sell the rights to another company?

if not, no

 

[ReasonableAdult]

(added poll)

 

[SCUMMbag]

I'd settle for a new Mann Co comic at this rate.

 

[Ballpoint Ren]

No way, absolute zero chance.

 

[Glio]

I have a feeling Valve is not going to release any short-term games other than VR.

 

[MouldyK]

Even the next 50 years? Nope!

 

[Z-Beat]

You'll get Team Fortress 2 episode 1

 

[Heliex]

That poll so far, LMAOOO. Literally 0 hope.

 

[Acrano]

They will when they fix the bot problems in TF2. Any day now...

 

[Noppie]

TF3 will never be a thing.

 

[Psyrgery]

Eez not possybol!

 

[FarZa17]

If Valve won't do it, someone else will do it, but it won't be TF.

 

[Nateo]

holy fuck the poll is 81 votes no 0 yes. Its so sad its never happening.

 

[Firefly]

This is maybe the first time there isn't even an optimistic or outlier voter.

 

[Jebusman]

If you want to believe how Valve supposedly operates (freedom to work on whatever project you want), you'd need enough people who even want to make TF3. And there doesn't really seem to be anyone championing it

 

[OhSatan]

Valve can't count to three.

SteanOS will ship as 3.0...

 

[NoneLikeAlex]

There will never be a TF3.

 

[Kalor]

Only if Valve outsourced it to someone else. Based on the way they normally work, and the current treatment of TF2, I doubt theres much interest internally. Though I'd love to see it.

 

[Classy Tomato]

I don't think we'll even get the continuation to the last TF2 comic chapter in the next 5 years tbh

 

[Ginger Hail]

 

[Rassilon]

nah

 

[Smokey]

very random

and the answer is no

 

[Linus815]

Valve can't even be bothered to fix the bot issue that has been plaguing matchmaking for years.
They are past giving a fuck about Team Fortress.

Perfect reply

 

[Ojli]

It's Valve, so you only get two numbered games.

 

[nutaroundthecorner]

We'll probably get one by the community long before Valve does anything official. Y'all should take a look at that TF2 in Source 2 project, it's looking pretty neat.

 

[random88]

Is this the most lopsided poll on Era?

 

[ChrisD]

No, and it's a shame.

 

[exodus]

Valve can only count to 2.

 

[waterpuppy]

Not gonna lie, I let out a chuckle seeing the poll results. Whoever the 2 people who said yes are, they're the most hopeful people on Era.

 

[Allietraa]

The Team Fortress dev team is in the low single digits iirc, so I doubt they're doing anything beyond the current "add community made cosmetics every couple months, patch exploits a couple times a year" schedule

 

[trashbandit]

I doubt we'll ever see TF3.

 

[The Omega Man]

Yes , Overwatch never really came close enough to TF2, the gameplay, humor, lore and and just sheer amounts of fun playing TF2 set the bar way to high.
Valve is not interested in making these type games anymore.
:(

 

[Hentz]

I wish

I would love for Team Fortress 2 Classic too, doesn't have to be a brand new TF3. They could make a remake of the original TF2 with new maps/weapons and quality of life updates, modernizing the games

 

[GamerJM]

We'd get Team Fortress: Alyx first, because Valve can't count to three.

 

[CubeApple76]

Lol at the 2 people who voted yes. I wish I had your faith

 

[wideface]

I salute the 3 people who voted yes.

 

[sph3re]

 

[Axe]

Nope, not happening. Couldn't even finish the updates they were working on (RIP Robot Destruction)

Hopefully Valve end up adopting that Source 2 port. Would breathe new life into the game.

There's actually a mod called TF2C that aims to recreate the 2009 era of the game and adds in some cut content. It's fun and has a decent player base but I wish Valve would pick it up or promote it in some official capacity. The only thing holding it back is more polish and a larger playercount.
I have no idea what the current state of vanilla TF2 is but I would imagine that the people who still play it in 2021 wouldn't want Valve to make a TF3. Seems kind of like the people who were still playing CS 1.6 after CS:GO released, they like what they like.

 

[PMS341]

TF2 is still one of the best playing shooters and it's a damn shame we have no modern equivalent. It'll pretty much never happen though.

Yes , Overwatch never really came close enough to TF2, the gameplay, humor, lore and and just sheer amounts of fun playing TF2 set the bar way to high.

I'll second this. TF2 was campy, over-the-top humor while Overwatch's dialogue is cringe incarnate lol. I definitely shifted over to OW in terms of gameplay time and just overall dedication, but recently have just fallen back into TF2 instead and am having a blast.

 

[cardboardboxer]

To me the most interesting upcoming game release as far as the business side of things is Overwatch 2.

If it doesn't do well the genre might suffer.

What is this thread supposed to be? Grasping onto the last straws of hope? Cast yourself into the darkness
