Only played a small amount of it, its good I guess.

The only game where it's acceptable to whip a black man as a white american to make them move faster.

My experience in TF2 How i see players with those hours

1 Hours-40 hours Ghastly Gibus Hat And Pyrovision Goggles F2P Little Kid yelling on everyone
100Hours After 100Hours Ask Mom For 10$ Buys 4 Keys heard from some one about those unusual hats which cost $ 60-100 trying to open boxses and get
1-Hat 1 Cosmetic item and 1 Strange (written in orange) Weapon and Unique Weapon At Least Is not a F2P Noob now with repotion

200Hours after 200 hours has many Smelt Refined Metal first trading has just begun
400Hours have good and valuable inventory from trading
600Hours from trading makes very valuable items or spend little bit of money o not
800Hours ties to get unusual hat and spends 20$-60$ or maybe someone not spend it those 20$-60$
1600Hours some people are rich with Unusual Hats and items inventroy overall 200$ or more some chance it to real life money some buy games someone got scamed and lost everything

But what I can say about myself I played TF2 About 713 hours
I spend only 15$ and i never had Unusual Hats but i had hats cosmetic items strange (written in orange) weapons i had valuable inventory and not one scams me
I hate hackers/cheats
I hate teenagers and litte kids who's sending those Phishing link tries to scam other players ♥♥♥♥ing scamers
I hate little kids who's yelling on servers and saying how are they slept with your mother in the bed and saying how Call Of Duty And Halo are better then TF2
-9.5/10
One Of The Best Pc Game Of All Time

I met my match alright, because I can't stand this horrible update.

I've been a long time player, been here since the Replay Update back in may of 2011, and this is my absolute favorite game of all time, but this update might finally be the nail in the coffin for me.

The biggest glaring issue here is the removal of valve servers. Say you want to play a match of sawmill or maybe a map that isn't so popular such as lumberyard, you would normally just bring up the browser, narrow the search to the map you want, find the valve server with a healthy amount of players and good ping, boom! You're done!

Nope, with the newest EPIC CONTENT UPDATE, these servers have since been removed, and replaced with 'casual mode'


Now casual mode is its own can of worms. During the launch of this update, you couldn't even CHOOSE THE MAP YOU WANTED TO PLAY ON. You picked your game mode, pressed a button, and now you're shoved in a que for an extrememly long waiting time. Some things have been fixed since then, though the experience is hardly any better. It goes something like this:

1. Choose the map and mode you wish to play

2. Enter the que and wait up to 5 minutes to get into a game

3. Join a server that is often a one sided stomp that ends faster than the time it took to join the server

4. The map ends, everyone disconnects

5. Repeat steps 1-4 until you die of old age

You might be thinking "just go play on community servers!" If by "community servers" you mean "only 2fort/dustbowl" then sure, you can play that to your hearts content. But for a game with 92 different maps spanning across 15 game modes, I think I'm right in wanting a little bit of diversity here and there.

There are other servers of course, many in fact, so why don't I play on some of them? Mainly because, most of them are garbage custom servers or AMAZING trade servers. I hope you like custom maps/modes (especially minecraft ones), because there are about 9 billion of them to choose from!

I live on the east coast of America and mainly play at night. I can hardly ever find a match with 20 players+, good ping, and stock maps that aren't dustbowl/2fort. This is unnacceptable. Where the hell are all the 50k players at?


I don't play competitive, and frankly never ever will. Personally I believe this game isn't competitive and should have never had had this mode added. This is the main point of this update, so it must be amazing right?


Wrong.


As far as I know, this mode has been in beta for half a year, maybe less/more. Plenty of time to polish some of its features up. But yet again, Valve somehow managed to screw it up.

No class restrictions, telephone number REQUIRED or else you have to spend money, no weapon restrictions, no real rewards.

No class restricitions is self explanatory. You can have about 6 engineers/snipers/spies on your team if you wanted. Now this isn't always a bad thing per se, but If you plan on playing competitive solo, half a team full of gibus spies might be an issue.

The telephone number restriction helps combat against trolls and griefers, but then again, what about the people that don't have a telephone number or don't want to give away their personal contact information to Valve?

Cough up that $10 buddy because that's the toll of admission if you want to join the competitive club.

Now to me, the no weapon restrictions would honestly kill the mode for me. Banning some of the more broken weapons would really level the playing field. Instead, you get full access to the mini-crits-on-demand cola and the reserve 130-damage-for-blowbacking-a-target-shooter (which by the way, valve planned on buffing for this update).

Last but not least, no real rewards. Valve should be aware that the vast majority of the playerbase isn't going to play competitive just to win and rank up that badge that no one outside of competitive mode will see. They could have added some fancy new weapon skins or exclusive cosmetics to compensate that gut wrenching grind to level 10 or even level 18. But instead, you get nothing. You upgrade your badge to a different picture and that's your lot.



tldr this update sucks and I advise everyone to stay away from the game until they update casual to feel more like valve servers again


This is my first long review that isn't just a meme sentence, and this game has a special place in my heart, so it deserves something that comes from it.

I'm playing this Game for Years now and regret no sec of it.
This isn't a game about killing, become the best or even Hats for that matter.
(yes I just said that! deal with it)
You can play it like any other competetive Game but that is't the moste awesome part of TF2.
This is the only Game i know where friendly Players (People who don't attack you) have spezial names.
This is the only shooter i know where you can dance with your enemys in many diffrent styles.
And it has the Best commiunity ever! (Just my stupid opinion Bro no offence ^^)

This isn't just a game you can play with your friends. In this game you can meet new awesome people every day.
Here is (nearly) everybody welcome
(just don't annoy the other guys on the server ^^)

Thanks for scrolling down

please dont leave a cancerous comment

Valve have systematically destroyed everything that made TF2 fun.

They opened the floodgates to bratty little smartarses on their big brother's hand-me-down PC or school laptop when they took a game with modest system requirements and made it free. The player community has since degenerated in to smack-talk and reciting memes stolen from ♥♥♥♥♥, which is a far cry from the game where Internet Tough Guys used to be told to '♥♥♥♥ off back to xbox live' and were promptly kicked. They also made it impossible to punish hackers by making the game free; a VAC ban just results in them opening a new account.

They encouraged poor form with weapons and 'killstreak kits' that incentivised playing like a tryhard (often at the expense of your own team and the objective).

They've provided the bare minimum in terms of support since their newer games started making bank. When balance changes come, they come with the most superficial understanding of gameplay dynamics and typically come with a six-months-to-forever wait for fixes to their fixes; they even admitted in a blog post that they simply nerf whatever is popular and buff whatever goes unused. They've straight-up declined to take any role in managing the in-game economy since adding a single new metal sink mechanic about three years ago, meaning players without a lot of disposable income are SOL when it comes to exchanging metal for keys or other goods. We're also now lucky if we get a single non-annual, non-community-developed content update a year - and even then, they're usually paid grind-fests for a bunch of reskinned guns.

They made netcode changes a few years back, allowing servers more control over client variables, which most community server operators have never managed to use constructively. To this day, most community-run servers play like crap (even when they're not running obnoxious mods). This wasn't so bad when Valve began running vanilla pub servers but they've since taken those away, too.

And now they're trying to turn a very dated game about silly hats and dance parties, with a playerbase who largely appreciated TF2 because it isn't Counter Strike or DOTA2 and wasn't trying to be, in to some 'esports' abomination. Even their 'casual mode', our supposed replacement for Valve pubs, has a giant lifetime kill/death counter displayed across the screen, attracting entirely the wrong sort and priorities in what was supposed to be an objective- and team-focused game. Never mind that their matchmaking system is next to useless if you feel like playing a couple of specific maps; you're either waiting for forever to get on your maps or you select every map and repeatedly end up on Turbine (albeit, pretty quickly) or you use the server browser to find one of the aforementioned terrible community servers.

It's great the Valve supported a game for as long as they did but, at this point, I suspect no stewardship at all would be less destructive than the half-arsed support the game receives now. What made TF2 special and what that one intern at Valve wants TF2 to be are two very different things.

What happened. No seriously, what happened to this game. I feel it all started going downhill after the introducton of promotional and cosmetic items that didn't fit the style. Now it's a wasteland of community models with precisely zero quality control, extremely awful optimization, a billion weapon reskins, the scamm-co store, traders, and an utterly broken menu system. Valve's quickplay devastated custom map servers by not listing them, something that caused many to shut down completely and disband a lot of great communities. The End of the Line update was an inarguable disaster that even the most hardcore valve fanboy couldn't defend with broken promises and no actual content. And finally there's the trainwreck known as meet your match. The only reason I still play is because I have an old bunch of friends I can go back to. To anyone who actually reads this past the idiotic and useless "POOTIS" comments on the front page just know what this game has become, it's been a long time since 2007.

Gun Mettle was ok.
Invasion was meh.
Tough Break was also meh.
Meet Your Match was trash.
Hitscan is still garbage.
Competitive MM is an actual joke. (Even after spending months in a ♥♥♥♥ing beta...)
Valve are still lazy ♥♥♥♥s only motivated by money.
...and VAC is still a ♥♥♥♥ing meme, despite doing its job slightly better lately.

Somehow this poor game has survived a decade even with the most hopeless possible devs.
I do not envy the people who still try and legitimately enjoy this fun little shooter.
But honestly, it was fun while it lasted.
Rest peacefully, TF2.

Oh and last but not least:
