Thorax_ 539 Posted January 18, 2017 (edited) Game Name: Team Fortress 2 Platform: Windows | macOS | SteamOS | Consoles Time Spent: +2000 Hours Do you recommend? Yes What you rate the game: 8.9 Initial Thoughts: A really interesting game; tried some of the Valve servers it was great, then I took a look at some of the community servers and it was even better! The Pros: Competitive Update The competitive update allows those players who are really looking for a challenge to compete against other players without the occasional Pootis bird trying to be friendly. This game mode allows you to level up your Competitive Ranking and earn yourself bragging rights as you reach for the top. Although it is now $12.99 to gain access to this feature; it is very well worth it. The Community Servers The community servers are outstanding, you have different non-standard game modes such as Deathrun, Surfing, Slender Fortress and more! Also many great communities to check out and meet new friends. Xeno Gamers for instance <3 The Cons: The Codec Update This is very bad, yes you may burp in HQ audio but some users get to deal with being a castrated chipmunk if I may put it that way. Your voice will sound like a chipmunk and will cut out very frequently making your speech 100% inaudible. This however does not happen to all users; just depends on your Operating System or your choice of headset. Fixed as of February 16, 2017 Minor and Major Bugs It’s quite obvious all games have their quirks, Team Fortress 2 has their fair share of them ranging from dense bot AI’s and malfunctioning map functions (deploying bomb fails to end round). Although these specific issues currently are null, there are occasions where there are some bugs that really screw up your gameplay experience. These bugs usually are never permanent and get squashed within an update or two. Final Thoughts: Overall, it's a great game. It has its kinks but it's easy to look past them and fully enjoy the game. For a free game; it's incredible! Edited February 18, 2017 by TheSupremePatriot (see edit history) 1 The_Unlit_Torch reacted to this Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
