When I try to play Team Fortress 2, I’ll click the "Play" button, but then a thing pops up that says "validating steam files". It’ll then validate the files, but it doesn’t do anything else afterword. I tried re-booting Steam and everything, but the "Validating Steam files" thing keeps coming up. What should I do to help this?

This video shows new tactics, strategy and gameplay for the Spy update’s Ambassador, Dead Ringer and Cloak & Dagger in Team Fortress 2. It is a total guide to playing the new spy. The video assumes that you are already familiar with how the spy plays normally – if not, a good thing to watch would be EvilDaedalus’ video “How to play the spy” to get an introduction. Outtakes are at the end! The Sniper/Spy update for Team Fortress 2 brought three new items for the Spy to use. The Revolver can be replaced by the Ambassador, a slower firing gun which does critical hits on headshots. The Cloak has two possible replacements: the Dead Ringer, which cloaks the spy and feigns his death for up to 8 seconds when the spy is damaged; or the Cloak & Dagger, which is a cloak drained only by movement. It also regenerates more slowly than the original cloak. The music in this video comes from the game files of TF2. The first one is called “Petite Chou-Fleur” (French for “Little Cauliflour”) and the second is called “Right Behind You.” Both are performed by the Valve Studio Orchestra and were first used in the Meet the Spy video on Steam. Or rather leaked on YouTube… I also sprinked in a couple of other game sounds, see if you can spot them You can find all the game sounds inside C:Program FilesSteamsteamappsteam fortress 2 content.gcf -you will need a GCF viewer like GCFscape to open it though.

LEARN TO TURN OFF ANNOTATIONS IF YOU DON’T WANT TO SEE THEM !VIEW IN HIGH QUALITY TO SEE GOD + NOW WITH ANNOTATIONS! EDIT 2: 15000 VIEWS AND CLIMBING?! wat Thanks for watching so much?! XD EDIT: This is now the most viewed out of all my videos. Apparently my AMV attempt was good. XD Boy, was I bored. XD Basically, I combined Shinedown’s Sound of Madness (from the album, Sound of Madness) and every Team Fortress 2 trailer up to this point. The result? SPARTA. Wait… Team Fortress 2 and all related properties belong to Valve, “The Sound of Madness” belongs to Shinedown, and this video is mine (AKA: DarkxideX). Because I give credit as due, this is not an act of stealing. This is incorperating two products into one not only making no profit while advertising both both in a way, but also creating what I would personally think of as “badass.” Aside from that, ENJOY.
