    Default odd images and mention of demo on Steam RTW2 page

    Can somebody clarify, I have seen on forum there will be no demo but steam RTW2 page http://store.steampowered.com/app/214950/ mentions "Plus, Pre-Purchase and receive the Greek Hellenic Armor for The Pyro, Egyptian Cheetah and now the Barbarian Set for the Demo! More to come!".

    The images also are not really fitting to RTW2. Anyone have any thoughts?

    ?

    It's for some unrelated game called Team Fortress or something like that. I too got confused and posted these in horror a week or so back!

    Its a TF2 thing. Demo as in Demoman, a character from the Valve game "Team Fortress 2". He's the one in the second image with the sword. Buying the game via steam, gives you special items in Team Fortress, as displayed.

    Just comes from the most popular F2P FPS. So they didn't think it would be neccessary to say what it's all about.

    'F2P FPS'

    I'm guessing 'FPS' is first-person-shooter...but F2P??

    The page doesn't even mention TF2 anywhere?

    Considering Valve's practice of offering TF2-items to people who pre-order games on Steam, as well as the two images from TF2...

    Aye, they ought to mention it. People could be misled into thinking it's something to do with Rome 2, particularly if they're not really au fait with any other games ().

    You guys dont know team fortress? I don't play it myself, but you just can't haven't heard of it. It's been the most played FPS on steam since 2007!

    I think it really dpeends on if Steam is where most of your games are launched from which mine aren't so it's no surprise some may have not heard of it. I never heard of Team Fortress until late last year

    Haha funny how both Will and Jack have visited this thread, as if worried that someone's rumbled their secret demo announcement....

    I've heard from my friends cousins father-in-law that works on ninten..uhh valve that if you restart steam exactly 10 000 times while shouting "I AM THE WALRUS", the Rome II demo will appear in your library.
