How many drops in tf2 would you expect in 15 hours? For comparison.

In TF2 you have access to 9 totally different classes straight away though.
You have to work for quite a while to unlock a 3rd class in TA.
(Don't like how I said work, the game is very fun, heh)

Those numbers are off, because I got my Pathfinder class way before 15 hours. Probably around 7-8 hours. The game is fun either way, though.
This game's theme music http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=HgzGwKwLmgM (I wish!)
Also some content to this post: They were going to ship a patch that added a flat 50% speed inheritance in all directions to projectile weapons (instead of the current 20% + up to 30% depending on viewing angle vs traveling vector).
But there was a problem and they did a rollback... probably wont see that patch for a little while now that it's holidays.

I thought that was off too, so I gathered some data to calculate the tokens/minute gain.
So according to this the pathfinder (1800 tokens) take about 6 hours and 14 minutes to unlock.
I don't know why there is a difference between the sessions, my best guess is that is relies on how well you scored in the match. But it could also take into account: winning, losing, number of players, match length, your rank. I don't know.
But yeah, that is the average amount of tokens/minute I personally got after playing all those games.

fuck already activated my key
clearly should have just sold it instead
anyway selentic should be my name I guess?
Selling it would probably be hard. since this thing is still going: https://apps.facebook.com/betakeytribestest/contests/176920
(free keys for everyone). So while the beta is technically invite only closed beta, it isn't really.
Hi-Res Studios have released a trailer for it you your one of the people still unconvinced about this game

It's a good game and all, but do they have plans to do anything about the distribution/installation process?
It's not the worst thing to ever disgrace my computer, but I won't lie, I expected such a popular game to have a less clunky system.

Get used to it! For now.
Until they add custom server support, building any sort of community with decent game sense is hard. Right now with the quick play only, it's comparable to the level of play in TF2 quickplay.
Luckily that is their next "big thing" to implement, so hopefully soon-ish.
Usually, if your team is nowhere to be found, go hide with the flag in the generator room, in 75% cases, thats where they are hanging out. Or just keep running, avoid turning sharply and don't go down the same slope you used to get up, because there will be chasers, and they know how to deal with that tactic.
Also chasers have extreme tunnel-vision on the flag carrier. Try to steer them into your teammates (if possible), not away from them.

Bah, I'm struggling between my interest versus my hatred of the whole "LIKE US TO X!" thing.
