Why does everybody here love TF2?

[blankedboy]

Very tactical. Very charming. Scout is especially fun, even though he's the least tactical. Double-jump + FPS = win.

Mostly because of how charismatic the characters are

"If God wanted you to live, he would not have created me!"
"You know what you and Jane Austin have in common? You're both dead women."
"What's that sandvich? Kill them all? Good idea! HAHAHAHAHAHAHA."
"Yeah, I dare you ragequit!"

And so on and so on...

Who said the second and fourth? I haven't heard them...

I want to play this game so badly. It looks really fun. So my personal goal is to get a job and buy a gaming computer for it.

Another great thing about TF2 is that it really doesn't require a gaming computer. I've just got a decent mid-range store model that's 1 1/2 years old and TF2 runs great on it. As long as you've got decent memory and a solid internet connection, you're golden.

A real class based FPS.

And it's one of the only humerous games I've played since Psychonauts.

Hmmm that sounds good. Though I still need a new computer because this one sucks.

I can see why everyone likes it. It looks better then all these other war FPSes.

Because it doesn't have bullshit killstreaks, perks and overpowered weapons that unbalance the game and it's fun, and (for the most part) requires good teamwork and strategizing. Also it doesn't have 90% of the players being campers.

Who said the second and fourth? I haven't heard them...

The Sniper says the second, and the Scout says the fourth. Both are when the character dominates someone. "Yeah, I dare ya, ragequit. Come on, make us both happy." is the full line.

Heavy says the third after eating a Sandvich, and the Scout says the fourth when he dominates someone. "Yeah, I dare ya, ragequit. Come on, make us both happy." is the full line.

You misread there.

 

[CounterAttack]

*facepalm* I'll edit that.

 

[Timbydude]

Meh, it's fun. Heck, it's great. But it got old for me, as do all online multiplayer games. I know a couple people who have put over 500 hours into it, and I just don't see how.

To Valve's credit, though, they've done an extremely commendable job of providing free updates. The game has grown to about 3-4 times the size it was at launch, all for free.

 

[Arc_Light]

The Sheer Ludicrosity of it all.... THAT'S what makes it a great game...

 

[Auric]

I dont love it, but i like it . Its fun, and alot less infuriating than most other FPS games.

MW2 or similar just makes me want to shoot myself sometimes. Getting randomly gibbed by missiles, harriers, or other equally as annoying things, plus Tf2 isnt filled with tards who only play for killstreaks or something equally as stupid.

 

[Deadlock Radium]

I play the PC version, and it is the definition of addictive. It has a unique gameplay, it is fun and there's a lot of humorous things that happens or gets said every once in a while.
And I have never encountered an angry little 11 year old. <-- INSTA AWESOME!
Yeah.

EDIT: I haven't played it so much lately, but it grows bigger and bigger all the time.
And some things said by the characters are always fun.

Are said updates PC exclusive?

 

[Glademaster_v1legacy]

Well not everyone heres loves it or has even played it but most people who play it love it. This site has a lot of steam people and Valve fans so by extension a lot of TF2 fans.

Yes. But there is a rumour Xbox will get them all after they do the engie update.
But the PC version is where it's at.

I feel like I would be hung from a tree from my intestines if I said, "I didn't really like TF2..." Well, because...I didn't.

=[

 

[Insideout Ink Demon]

I had Orange Box for the 360
Seemed like a more mature atmosphere amongst the people online, that said though, there just wasn't THAT many people online. I've long since got rid of my XBL account so I don't know if its still true. I hear the PS3 version is dead

Eh, hence the saying "To each his own."

 

[SomebodyNowhere]

It is fun and easy to play. Also the class updates keep it feeling fresh and give people something to come back for.
Personally, I suck at combat shooters like COD or BF, but I can do my part and contribute pretty decently in a game of TF2. That maybe the biggest reason why I have spent so much time with the game.
