Hard to get into good games.
A huge negative side of this is that a lot of regulars are off playing MvM, so all that we're left with are the mealy-mouthed, retarded, pre-pubescent XBoxLive F2P kiddies...

TF2 is so far from what it started off as (in all ways) that it makes it too hard to get back into the game.

I haven't played it for more than a few hours in a long time.

well its been live for a while now so the servers aren't as badly choked as before...and they fixed some bugs.

all in all its pretty neat, refreshes a lot of the weapons, spamming piss rifle is amusing:) as is super upgrade beggars bazooka...

I tried to get on last night to no avail.

I waited about 15 min each try and when I did get connected, it gave me that failed to connect error or whatever. Gave up after wasting 30 min.

This mode is so hard, best I have gotten to is the last mission on coal town only to hit a brick wall.

This guy speaks the truth, game gets far too much love than it should. I put it in the same category as Borderlands, fun to play in small doses.

I disagree. I can't stop playing it. I think it's similar to something that crack or heroine addicts feel.

I still find it amazing that a game that is five years old still holds up well and the support that valve does for TF2 is legit.

I haven't played TF2 since they changed the random drops to timed ones. Maybe I'll try it again. I really enjoyed it before all the drop crap. Have a couple hundred hours in it before they did all that other crap.

Servers are kind of strict with the inactive period. I was in a server and the map changed, It was waiting for players to start so I just sat there waiting and got kicked for inactive, no warning. It couldn't have been more than 2 min.
