This game is a great way to blow some steam if your mad, or just to have fun with a great first person shoot'um. I love how game can be as small as 8 players, 4 on each side, or 32 players with 16 on each side. Not all classes can be played the same way which means some expertise or knowledge of the class and how it is played is somewhat necessary. Overall i give this an A! FYI, soldier is my favorite cause you just shoot rockets in every direction and usually find something to hit.

A good game with questionable support.

Okay, this is a good game. Fun and invintive class play, challenging maps, and a great community of players. The problem lies with Steam. While they have listened to the desires of players to add content, the way in which they have added this content is flawed. Patches which focus on only one class at a time, thus giving these classes more of an advantage. This has sadly thrown the game out of balance. This can be frustrating at times and will only become more so as Steam releases more updates.
Please don't think I'm one of those people expressing a personal grip against the company. I would highly recomend TF2 to anyone interested in a MMOFPS. I just want people to come to the game with an understanding of some of the draw backs. Eventually, Steam will smooth out the rough edges caused by these updates, and the game will be even more amazing than it currently is. Personally, I intend to be patient, and wait for that day to come.

The greatest online shooting game EVER!!!

That's a big statement there in the title of this post but it takes quite a game to have the pure impact and enjoyment that this game has had on the gaming public like this one has and continues to have.

As a long time player of Team Fortress Classic, (the previous Team Fortress game before this one) I was quite skeptical of what was to come next. The cartoony graphics, the been there done that type of game play, the long time wait may not meet the hype it has generated and the loss of things such as grenades that had been a staple in the game previous. It was a lot working against it but I was willing to give it a shot to see what we were in store for.

And boy am I glad I did. As its been a pleasant ride ever since.

The game set up is simple enough for anyone to get into or enjoy. You basically join a server that will have one of various different maps, each map having a different goal to it. Like one will be a capture the flag theme where the team has to bring a briefcase from the enemy base back to theirs in a set amount of times to win. Another will be capture point based where first team to capture all 5 capture points wins. And attack/defend themed maps where one side has to defend their capture points against the attacking team as time runs down.

You join a team that is either red or blue colored and pick one of nine classes. Each class having a different ability and providing unique game play all the while.

The various classes include: The fast running, but low in health points Scout, the all around, all purpose rocket shooting Soldier, the close range and burn all in its path Pyro, the sneaky and backstabbing, often times cloaked Spy, the long range head shot shooting Sniper, The health giving and supportive Medic, the Sentry Gun building wrench holding Engineer, the powerhouse and mow em all down in an instant Heavy and the bomb throwing and explosive Demoman.

And then you just jump right into the game. And that's really it. The fun will continue on from that moment on for many hours of sleepless nights playing.

You can change your classes at you want adding hours of repeatability to the game or master a class you instantly fall in love with. There are custom maps, new maps being added all the time by both Valve and fans who can make their own with the easily downloadable editor. Valve also had constantly been updating the classes, adding new weapons for you to get to them as you meet certain class specific achievements you have to unlock.

Valve has really out done themselves here with this one. It was worth the wait and even months later still continues to deliever on the fun and team based goals that this game set out to do.

Its simple and to the point yet accomplishes so much that other online based games can't seem to ever get. It doesn't wow us with realistic battles or graphics but continues on in the tradition that Team Fortress has started and even perfects it with so much more.

Sure no game is without its flaws. Like any popular game there are trouble makers in servers or connection problems and some many not like the constant changes being made to the game. But the pros outweigh the cons by far in this.

It has comedy with the unique voices each character has, taunts you can do to show up other players and so many more subtle little additions that add to the environment.

If you are a fan of online games and even want to find something new for you and your online friend to do. Look no further. This is the game that is must have and must play for all ages and walks of life.

The price is right, the time is right and the game is a must have experience. Don't take our word for it, check it out for yourself. The game sells itself the first time you play it.

Well I'm off .. Back to capturing the briefcase again, or is it trying to stop those from doing so...

Man, oh man, this one looks good. Simple text can't express how much i'm awaiting TF2! I can assure all gamers that with my experience with the first free online Half-Life modification that I know a good game when I see one! I know the graphics LOOK outdated right now, but it's difficult to see what exactly Valve has changed from the last time we saw an actual screenshot...which was, like, two years ago. ;)

No joke, I want Brotherhood of Arms more than Halo and Duke Nukem Forever put together!

Think CT, TFC, and Firearms all combined

This game has realistic weapons and damage factors too keep things alive. It has real world locations (I think). Also, it gives you the ability to drive or ride on/in an assortment of cars, tanks, ect.

JUST BUY IT

If you have ever played TFC or any Valve (creator of Half-life) game you will know that they are great. If Valve is taking so long then i trust that their time is spent well. The more time it takes, the better the game, most of the time (except Daikatana). I think you should pre-order it if you can to avoid as many TFC hard-cores as you can. You have to trust the majority, this game rocks. All I have to say is JUST BUY IT.

Never coming out!

Team Fortress 2 will never come out. So dont get your hopes up on this game. Get your hopes up on Unreal 2003 and Doom 3
