Well the possibilities are endless, there are multiple classes, multiple weapons and tons of game modes. It's well balanced, it's graphically pleasing and the engine is really solid...what's not to like?

I was gonna say that I liked TF2 because the gameplay is different than most shooters...

Because TF2 has no frags or assault rifles.
Also out of the 9 classes only one class (the sniper) tries to get headshots. The other classes use different tactics to kill enemies.
this however, explains much better why I love TF2. Especially the part about the assault rifles.

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? What do you guys love about it and makes you all play it?
I'm going to go with "all of the above," as well as the incredibly well-balanced class system and the total omission of grenades.

Because the Escapist is full of unrepentant Valve fanboys. As such, having 90% of the population here liking TF2 is par for the course.

That, and it's a good mindnumber for me. Why hurt myself in real life when I can die in humorous ways as a fail spy/pyro/medic?

I can't say I love the game, as I haven't played it, but I do love the "Meet the *insert class here*" videos =D

Simply put, it's well structured. Classes and teams are very, clearly defined, which allows for (heh, in theory) quick decison making, strong teamwork and epic matches.

Because it's fun, and very amusing.
You never have a dull match.
And the most important thing is it isn't one sided.
Like most shooters are nowadays and most likely the future one's will be.

Because this is a place for people who know what they are talking about when it comes to video games. And TF2 is a masterpeice of online competitive gaming. Well balanced; a good sense of humour about itself and its plave in context to the rest of gaming; a community thats wide enough to cater for different skill levels; Simple to learn, deep enough to master; enough variety in maps and game modes (whether they be standard or user generated) to allow for variation; and the constant stream of patches and updates by valvue ensure that the game remains dynamic in fresh.

People like it 'cause it's good. Simple as that.

I just love the art design and the humor that goes into it.

You dont see it very much in big multiplayer games. With that much stylized humor.

In this day and age any pc gamer worth his salt plays tf2. As the escapist is geared towards gamers and it requires a pc for access you can easily see why.

Personally I love its varied gameplay with each class, its fantastic art style and characterisation and the fact that it is just so much fun to play.

It's a good game with good characters, gameplay and community.
