IMO, Team Fortress 2 has yet to be touched for pure, fun, online multiplayer.

Whatever happened to games being fun? I've picked up Team Fortress 2 again lately and haven't been able to put it back down. It still, 4 days before its 2 year anniversery, has an amazing online community, great mechanics, teamwork, and variety. Sure Call of duty and Halo have good multiplayer, but I, for one, have noticed that the gameplay starts regressing from fun into a grind of sorts. This is THE game to show that flashy graphics and fancy doo-dads are not synonomous with fun. Discuss.

I hated it on Orange Box for the 360....maybe I didn't give it a fair chance?

TF2 is fun, and offers a lot of personality that makes it a great multiplayer experience, but understand that fun is subjective and opinionated. There will always be someone that will see a game as 'more fun' than others.

Me too. I'm sure its different on the PC on the 360 you were lucky to find a game and it wasn't that fun.

You didn't give it a fair chance because you didn't play it on PC.

Well more content can enchance the gameplay and more players can add to the fun. It is a lot better on PC though, very, very, healthy community, better controls (IMO) and a ton of support for your characters and etc. No lag is also great (95% of the time)

all of the above....I'll give it a try on the PC why the hell not!

TF2 before unlocks, some which are incredibly noob-friendly, was fun.

TF2 now is just lame.

That is what I really love about TF2. It's just so much fun. When your team is in sync and everything starts going right it is gaming ecstasy, and even when your team is a mess and you know you are going to lose you can wreak havoc on the other team and have a blast too (pyro woot!). There are even matches that are nearly impossible to win that are still very fun to play. (maps with the max number of players with instant respawns that run for hours on end, although I did manage to almost capture the last point on one of those once. It was nuts)

[QUOTE="Penguinchow"][QUOTE="II-FBIsniper-II"] I'm pretty sure more content wouldn't change his mind about the gameplay.chikenfriedrice

Yeah TF2 is soo much fun but I think in offline multiplayer Brawl is unmatched. Its as pure and fun as you could ask for

ALL about the PC for TF2, dude.

I do love TF2.

clyde46

umm wow. You are a well rounded player. I barely have any acheivements for the spy, medic, and sniper just because I don't like playing support very much. The scout is my favorite class. I love the pyro as a bringer of chaos, and I really love the heavy on payload.

Mr_Nordquist

Imo, you are correct. The game is pure fun...

Yeah calling TF2 the best multiplayer this gen wouldn't be stretching it. And funny how some ofthose who complain about the changes still put plenty of hours in it.

I do love TF2.

clyde46

I believe I love it more xp

I agree. TF2, and Halo 3, are probably the games that I have had the most fun playing. No flashy graphics, or perk system, just me and a gun. And a lot of people say that TF2 is better on PC, if I liked it on 360, would I like it even more on PC? I would like to know, because if it is, I'll probably buy it for PC.

Both are extremely fun but TF2 has lots of hacks on PC which sucks

I play TF2 a good amount, but its not my most played online game, but i still think it is easily the best multiplayer game released this gen.

TF2 is a awesome game, through I haven't been playing it recently thanks to NeoTokyo.:P Anyway but yeah it really fun, pretty balanced, and the cartoony graphics are great.

TF2 isn't even run and gun and it is much better then Halo or Call Of Duty, you actually have to use teamwork rather then a one man team, Halo 3 is a little more team oriented then Call of duty though. The game never gets old because it gets continuous updates and bug fixes.

but it's the only game on the orange box that i hated ...

I enjoyed Team Fortress Classic back in the day, I haven't played TF2 yet.

Lots of "best of" opinion polls today lol.

Anyhow, I'll say Halo tied with CoD. Both of those games have given me an insane amount of fun online, with Bad Company and TF2 coming in a close 3rd and 4th place.

All are great games and I can't say there is any real reason to say any one is better than the rest. Everyone has their own taste.

I don't really like TF2.

Halo 3 is just as fun as TF2.II-FBIsniper-II

I think halo is definitely more fun if you are playing with your friends, especially split screen...I've played four on four in the Dorms at college and being able to talk trash and what not is definetly awesome.

But for playing over the internet, even with friends on the other end, i think TF2 is better in that case
