recently i have been playing a little more tf2, and not a game goes by without someone spamming asking for metal or wanting to trade for something. this makes me sad and frustrated as TF2 used to have such an awesome community and valve seems to have lost a lot of respect for the game recently. With features like trading and crafting, i feel a lot was lost from the game, and its less of an FPS now, more of a hat trading collecting extravaganza :(
I dont mind crafting, as it helped to get rid of useless duplicate items that i had lying around in my inventory, but i hate how valve just pumps out useless updates, and worse, puts in the option to PAY for in game items. thats not what TF2 was all about for me when i started playing, and i only really enjoy it when playing with a group of real life friends now.
Thanks for reading my rant, comment with your opinion on the new direction valve is taking with tf2. or just say hi. :)
TF2 is amazing! Though I have kind of lost track of all the new weapon updates! Thumbs up!
ReplyDeleteI play Goldeneye Source more often than TF2.
ReplyDeleteI couldn't agree more. I love the TF2 game but I'm tired of small updates coming out to release new items for sale. The hats aren't bad they add a bit of flavor to your character. But it is annoying when people come in to a server just to spam for trades, they should have made it where you can't trade, just craft your own and use it.
ReplyDeletetf2 is a great game!
ReplyDeleteI never had the chance to play team fortress. My friends say its pretty good.
ReplyDeletejust saying hi. never played it, but thanks for the rant, anyway.
ReplyDeleteI'm back to FPS too. fun after a break.
ReplyDeletegreat rant, will be back for the next one.
ReplyDeleteIt's been a few years since I've played this game. But trading and crafting? What happened? It doesn't sound good.
ReplyDeleteMy friend loves TF2. I have never checked it out though. I might soon. Thank you for sharing!
ReplyDeletei'll see u on TF2
ReplyDeleteI haven't played in a while but it used to have a great community :D
ReplyDeleteAll games where possible, will have beggars.
ReplyDeleteI don't play Tf2 anymore, don't know why, I can't find my favorite servers anymore and I feel it a bit more laggy, also I feel left behind because of my lack of hats. And Jesus!, that installation folder keeps growing everyday.
ReplyDeleteTF2 has become World of Team Fortress.Fuck the hats,fuck the custom items,fuck the crafting and fuck the trade.Just give me my old game back please.
ReplyDeleteTF2 went from being a FPS to being a hat simulator.
ReplyDeletenever played tf2 :(
ReplyDeleteI want to get a new graphics card before I buy more PC games. But I do have some from the winter Steam sale that are waiting for me.
ReplyDeleteCAN'T WAIT.
Wish I could play it, but I can't...FPS make me want to hurl. Vertigo from the PoV...:(
ReplyDeleteYeah, I am always frustrated when you can pay for in-game items. I get it from the moneymaking programmer standpoint, but it really ruins it for the people who want to straight up play it without blowing a wad of cash on it. Good post!!!
ReplyDeleteI have always wanted to play TF2. Even the day it came out I told myself I should get it. I still dont have it. I dont think I even have the time to play it like I would.
ReplyDeleteur right man.. i'd say tf2 had better days..
ReplyDeleteI haven't played much TF2 lately, but what you're writing is making me sad.
ReplyDeleteI think they sort of made TF2 into Hat Fortress 2 now with all the unusuals and shit. I'm not a big fan of the crates either.
ReplyDeletei m missing it
ReplyDeleteHaven't played TF2 for a while now, still, that sucks a lot. The whole paying for ingame items, I mean.
ReplyDeleteWell, I'll be following your blag. Check out mine at nimbuzzreviews.blogspot.com
Just got my soldier headband for pre ordering homefront.
ReplyDeleteI hate what tf2 has become, if i wanted to play wow, i'd just play WOW.
ReplyDeleteso sad to see a community destroyed like that.
ReplyDeletelol, never played Tf2 longer then an hour. makes me thing of css, so I play Css
ReplyDeleteI used to play TF2 a lot, but now I spend most of my day playing awesome HL2 mods, not much spamming and lots of fun!
ReplyDeleteI played this when it was bundled with the Orange Box, before my Xbox was stolen...tis a shame, it was fun.
ReplyDeletecomp ain't good enough to play it :(
ReplyDeleteI played that one too bro, its great, I already recommended it to my brother
ReplyDeleteCouldn't agree more. Sadly this is the way the gaming industry seems to be going.
ReplyDeleteafter reading this i went onto tf2 for the first time in ages and wtf since when did it become ebay you get like 4 people staying in spawn at the start of a game bartering for a crappy weapon. also nice post following

TBH the way TF2 is going is starting to annoy the living daylights out of me,I play as a scout and like to get straight into the game, none of this bartering nonsense.
