With Teamwork, You Cannot Lose!

Advantages: Encourages teamwork, Unique classes, Excellent Graphics.
Disadvantages: Few maps/modes.

Team Fortress 2 is the highly anticipated multiplayer shooter than has been in development since 1998. So was it worth the wait? Team Fortress 2 is the multiplayer component of Valves Orange Box, as its name suggests it's a team based shooter but it doesn't involve any fort building! (Slightly off topic but for an awesome fort building game check out SourceForts). Once you load up the game you are greeted with the main menu, from here you can access ...
...Point, in this mode one team starts with all the control points and must defend them while the opposing team must capture. The next mode is CTF where each team has intelligence deep in their bases and both teams must attempt to bring the enemy intel back to their own base to score. The main feature of Team Fortress 2 is the unique character classes, there are three offensive classes, three defensive and three support. The first offensive class player ...

TF2: A breath of fresh air

Advantages: Replayability, just plain fun, active community, excellent style, constantly updated
Disadvantages: Not everyone's cup of tea, relies on connection speed, no offline gameplay

...get annoyed. In Team Fortress 2, there is no storytelling to be had. This '''should''' bother me, but I'll tell you why it does not-- the maps, though small at times, are so detailed and perfectly designed that it's easy to forget they're not part of a bigger world. Periodic propaganda posters, wonderfully decorated interiors and exteriors, and every environment is absolutely unique. On top of that, the playable classes themselves are something to ...
...Now, this game isn't called TEAM Fortress 2 for nothing. If you don't work together, there's a big chance you'll land yourself on the bottom of the scoreboard every single time. That said, this game really isn't about scoring high-- it's about having fun. There is less of a pressure to perform, and more of a feeling that people are playing just to enjoy themselves. It helps, of course, if you keep an eye on your Medic and make sure he doesn't die, ...

TF2 a new classic

Advantages: Ultra intense gameplay, good fun, good community, nice graphics
Disadvantages: Not to everyones taste

Team Fortress 2. My new addiction. Was the first to start playing the beta. Oh my how much fun :D Its completly revamped for a slightly cartoonish feel. The gameplay is nothing like :) The spy can dress up as a enemy and take out that dominating sniper turn invisible. (my current favorite) The heavy gunner can spin his barrells are he walks to avoid having to warm up, his capabilites being able to spray enough lead to make even Iraq take notice. ...
...power. Watch as he tracks and "pops the noggin" with his trusty SMG as backup. The hardy soldier with his handy rocket launcher provides a good base, inflicting large splash damage. The scout on his nimble nimble feet. Running around with his shotgun wreaking havok. (till someone gives it to him in the face). Just watch out for his baseball bat :D This is such a game. Usually I am not so bothered, but within 10mins of playing I now know this is ...

A solid multiplayer game, a break from the norm

Advantages: Fun, quick, witty
Disadvantages: Little variety in maps and gameplay modes

This game came in my 'Orange Box' and at first, I wasn't too keen on the game. But soon after exhausting all the other available resources in the box, I turned to what I found to be an amazing class-based multiplayer game. I have yet to be tired of it. === First Impressions === The controls are standard and intuitive, and communication using the keyboard is easy. The developers decided to abandon the gritty multiplayer visuals so common in games ...
...cartoonish look. It proves to be a nice welcome break from the norm. I was lucky because the first server that I joined had some voice communication in it, and it was pretty easy to suss out what was going on. I was flummoxed by the 9 different classes and decided to be a sniper first off, and as soon as I got into the game, I was impressed. === Learning Curve === The learning curve is steep, but that's mainly because you have to try out each and ...

Team fortress 2 AKA Reason to buy the orange box

Advantages: Fun, quick to learn, lots of variety
Disadvantages: internet required

...i thought wow. A cartoon team fortress this will ruin the game. But as i watched more and more and more previews, i thought this game is gonna be so good. I was correct. There are thousands of dedicated servers for team fortress 2. This game has good graphics, good sound, great game play, longevity, and a great value for money. Once again great investment. 1. Now lets start with game play. There is one noticeably BIG downside to this game. People ...
...IT REQUIRES INTERNET. must i say it again? requires internet. But the game is for the internet and nothing else. i can't imagine a game like this with a single player mode being long and or good. Now with the internet game play there are a few different modes that you can play on. There is capture control points, Capture the intel, and a personal favorite of my escort the bomb. Capture control points is very self explanatory you capture specific ...

TF2 Best fun Shooter

Advantages: FUN, EASY TO PLAY
Disadvantages: Need quite a decent system for high specs.

...situations. This allows for great team play and a constantly evolving game. New tactics and strategies can be utilised all the time. The graphics are pleasing to look at and have a fun feel, with customizable options for those with lower end hardware, however still quite a cpu heavy game. One of the best things about this game is the support from valve, which includes multiple class updates which provide new, alternative weapons. Allowing for even ...

For example maps geared towards those who want to practise certain abilities for each class, also the fact that these maps are being accepted by valve and made official is even more great. TF2 also has a good competitive scene, with multiple leagues and tournaments even lans ...

Team Fortress 2 is the Greatest FPS Ever, Man

Advantages: Pretty, Balanced
Disadvantages: None!

I once played this game for 9 hourse straight - and I am a CASUAL gamer, ok? Its many character class choices are supremely balanced, and the entire game is so wonderful that you more often die laughing than cursing. The Scout is very fun to run around as, whipping your little bat at the backs of your enemies' heads. The Sniper is satisfying to play - headshots make you feel warm and fuzzy. The heavy is just fun, mowing down the bad guys with a huge, ...
...does SERIOUS damage. I like that because after a pyro kills me, which is often, he can't insult me, too. The soldier is mean, but he's also stupid - his rocket, however, is a deadly few hit killer! The demo man does way too much damage, but he's the most difficult to master, so its ok. Spies are just obnoxious and cheap, going invisible, disguising as your friends, never fighting fair just stabbing in the back, but sometimes when you get frustrated ...

Not Up To My Standards

Advantages: Great Graphical Detail ... Cartoony
Disadvantages: can become repetative at times

Team Fortress 2 came to our attention not too long ago. It was subject to a wave of high anticipation during the build-up to its release, and in my mind that expectation for a great game hasn't been met. TF2 was bought for me a few months ago by a friend who wanted me to get into the game along-side his new-found addiction. And I know plenty of people who love it and are also completely addicted. However, for me TF2 remains a game to be missed. What ...
...server, pick your side and class, then go out and attempt the hammer any opponents in your way. Perhaps the main thing Valve developers got right with this game was the diversity found within the classes. From Engineers to spys, each class possesses a unique weapon, and unique style of play. You really have to get inside a character to understand how it works - something I found difficult to conquer. But when you see past the diversity of each class, ...

Team Fortress 2 (updated)

Advantages: good team play, fun graphics, constantly updated and improved
Disadvantages: hard!

Since Team Fortress 2 has been updated alot lately, i only think its fair i update my review. TF2 is a first person shooter, online multiplayer fiasco. Its like Battlefield 2 took some drugs with Walt Disney and then got in a washing machine and set its self to rinse. The graphics, as you can see, are very cartoony, as was the case with TF classic (so im lead to believe). But dont let that put you off. They are awfully good graphics and its quite ...
...name. Its very much a TEAM game. Like most other games, your team have to complete the objectives or stop the enemy from doing theirs or both. This means working together. This is why the classes are split into "offensive", "defensive" and support. Engineers can build drone/sentry guns to defend intelligence, flags or bomb sites. They can also provide dispensers to distribute health and supplies as well as teleporters to get the slow members of the ...

Awesomely awesome ^_^

Advantages: Fun, original, awesome
Disadvantages: addictive

...is a great sense of team spirit. This is a great game for people who know friends with the game as you can play online with them! Graphics: not amazingly detailed, but very fun (I would describe it as a stylistic cartoon). Sound: nothing special, but you are able to use teamspeak to talk to members on your team and devise strategies. Longevity: you will be addicted, and it is hard to get bored of! My university computer games society has TF2 sundays ...
...play it far more often than once a week! Value for money: But it off steam!! For the love of cheap games!!! Right now there is a special offer due to the new spy/sniper update. In summary, it is hard not to like TF2. I am a girl, and like many girls would not have thought I would like an combat game. But TF2 is so fun, funny, and awesome everyone will like it :D ...

Team Fortress 2 Review

Advantages: Enjoyment
Disadvantages: Complexity

...hard to get bored from Team Fortress 2. The Gameplay of this game is really different and extra-ordinary. With 9 different playable classes, all with their own advantages and disadvantages. It is quite difficult to get to grips with the Complexity of the game, but when you do get to grips with it, it really is worth the money. This game is half the price of other games that have been released by high-brand names, which makes it amazing for value. ...

GEDDIM! GEDDIM! GEDDIM!!!! the TF2 rollercoaster

Advantages: Good fun, Fast paced action, good class selection
Disadvantages: need a good internet connection and a reasonably fast pc or it becomes near unplayable

The TF2 Game has been A good spare time destroyer for a while now as part of the orange box set and is what most would consider a very enjoyable game despite its age, The game itself has a very good graphical quality to it and a fantastic feel that draws you in, combined with the sound it provides a wonderful, frantic adreniline burst that keeps you coming back. (Well if beating people with a spanner is your kinda thing) The cartoony feel and the ...
...you will never forget the first time your chasing someone with a flamethrower shouting at the screen only to be hit in the back with A rocket. In my opinion the variarty of different classes and maps will keep the lifespan of this game nice and long and as your skills improve then the near infinate number of servers means you will always be able to find someone to kill/be killed by . However the game does require a good internet connection to be ...

TF2 - the multi-player isn't always a bad thing

Advantages: The graphics, the non-realness, ongoing updates, simple to play with easy multiplayer access.
Disadvantages: I can't REALLY find any.

Let's start from the graphics. It's an animation style game, and that is what makes it attracting. Instead of the realness of CoD and Crysis, here you get some fun classes, maps, and... well... FUN. Now about the sounds: when you turn on TF2 you hear some music until you try to connect to a server. That is called relaxation. If you can't find a server, listen to some music. The in-game sounds are nice. It sounds like if it were a lot different - ...
...through Steam, a TF2 retail box or by buying The Orange Box. We are still getting lots of updates from VALVe, like hats, medals, achievements, maps and machinima. The controls are just about perfect. You might want to make the controls your way if you didn't like them. There was only 1 problem when I was playing about the first month. I keeped on pressing E and that is the "Medic!" button. 9 classes. 3 attacking, 3 defending, 3 support. Scout - the ...
