Bots are in the PC version, however they're beta and only work in KOTH.

Oh ffs, this is the third time I can't read what the thread is about!
I'm just going to go out on a limb and assume the question is just plain old: Why does everybody here love TF2?

Well if thats the case then its a... how to put it... misassumption. I don't. No bots. So online forced play. Hence, I don't like it.
Who the hell still plays with bots? I mean, if you're going to play an FPS at all, you might as well shoot some other people in the head. What else would attract you to the genre, the story-lines? ROFL.
Well, last time I checked, TF2 didn't HAVE a storyline. As for the genre, I like going around shooting people. If there are no people to shoot, kind of takes away the whole point of the game. Also, bots help for many things like A) Practices, B) Offline play for say, if your internet connection cuts out or something or C) The game is fun, but the people who play it aren't.

Also, I do love a good storyline in any game, so yeah, that could be a reason I might play it. If I just want to run around and around I would play Quake or Doom or.. for eg, TF2.

No, Bots are also working on TC HYDRO as well.

Isn't that exactly why everyone else likes it? It's ridiculous.

I run a TF2 community and I've found the craziest people playing but also they are my online family. I met my boyfriend because of the game. Been playing since it came out and it never gets old. Plus who could say no to free updates for the pc version.

These are not mods just different game modes that Valve came out with.

I am in no way knocking it, I love it, but why does every single person seam to like TF2 on this site? I really have not seen so many TF2 fans on any one site then this one. Is it the humor? The fun gameplay? Do you just find the Heavy cute? What do you guys love about it and makes you all play it?
WEll it's balanced, fun, and each class is well characterized to the point of me wanting to watch them in a series.

My computer can't handle it, but I love the game, despite never really playing it. I devour all the flavor material Valve puts out.

Sorry about that, I know that a lot of people have trouble playing it. Maybe with the Engineer update they will have the texan fix up the system for better optimization.

I personally SUCK at it and I really don't like playing but I love all the jokes that come from it. Maybe if I had a PC and could practice I'd like playing it more.

Hell, I don't play it and I still like it. Tried the crappy port on my buddies Ps3 (he bought the orange box for Portal, nothing else). But I don't want to get it for the 360, so I'm gonna try and earn enough money to upgrade my computer and buy it for the PC.

The comedy aspect was my favorite part of it. I just thought it was to hard to play

For me, although I didn't realise it, until I went thru the commentaries, its the clever design (we wanted to make sure that like true icons like mickey mouse, you could recognise a class by its silhouette alone, making identifying an enemy pyro for instance far easier than if he was another guy in camo running about).

Secondly, the fact that, at least on newbie servers (because I'm awful at FPS games), the community is amazingly good, I so rarely get told that I suck, or that someone's going to rape my mother because I shot them, or that I'm a dirty n*****, or an english fag. (btw, I'm not black, and I do sound english, but for the idiots on some shooters, mere facts don't stop them using their 'random retarded insult generator' every five seconds.) Hell, it's the only shooter where I've had compliments from other players for good team play, despite dying far more than I actually get kills.

I wonder if it's partly the good humour inherent in the game that somehow cools people down and reminds them its only a game and not actually war, and doesn't require anger and hate to win.

They'll also work on other game modes (involving Control Points; no ctf or pl) if you enter "sv_cheats 1" in the console, then "nav_generate," wait a minute or two, then exit and load the map again. Go more places with bots :D
