It depends.

If it's for PC, yes, because Team Fortress 2 is awesome when you play with custom maps and 32 players and the occasional Cotton-eye Joe.

If it's for 360, you're a goddamn retard.

If it's for PS3, return it.

Enjoy no mods or custom maps or free online or 32 players or superior control or fun.

Instead, have no fun and only a few maps made by valve (one less than the pc version) and no personal servers and only those hosted by EA and using a controller for a FIRST PERSON SHOOTER.

You just spent an extra ten dollars for the second worst version of the game when you could've got the PC version which is infinitely better than the 360 version and the PS3 version is unplayable.

tl;dr xbox is useless and is only good for bungie's shit

There hasn't been one custom map I've played that I've enjoyed in the slightest thus far.

DANGER WILL ROBINSON is pretty crazy but highly enjoyable. Mario Kart is okay if you just want to boost your sniper score. Snofort is awesome. There are a bunch of others I really enjoyed but can't remember right now.

They're all fucking stupid though. The reason I like Valve maps is they are created for balance, unlike custom maps which are retarded. "OH BOY IM GOING TO PUT THE ENEMY RESPAWN POINT AROUND THE CORNER FROM THE CAPTURE POINT. THE DEFENDING TEAM STILL HAS TIME TO DEFEND THEN RIGHT?" No, they don't. Then it becomes like Team Fortress Classic with Demomen faggoting their pipebombs and running back into the respawn point and hiding.

Also, enjoy your nerfed classes.

Actually, never happened. About 75% of the custom maps I play are better than the official ones.

And the soldier and demoman are overpowered so they deserved the ammo cut.

Soldier and demo are supposed to be overpowered. If they wanted to do that they should reduce their crit rate, not their ammo rate. And guess what, they did that too. Now they are the least powerful class in the game. Yes, even behind medic.

You're kidding, right?

The demomen and soldiers get just as many kills because dead people drop ammo. They just can't stand on a roof and fire 40 shots before they finally have to move. Even if they had dropped the crit rate, two stickies would still kill most people.

Also, spy is the weakest class in the game yet I still play it more than any other class.

If you only play Portal and HL2, then sure, it's okay. But Portal only lasts about 2 hours and you're missing out on custom maps and Half-Life 2 sucks and you're not getting the only decent part of the game which would be Deathmatch.

Enjoy your shitty ports.

Because it's the only class that require practice. With everything else, especially soldier and heavy, you can just run around like an idiot and do fair. If you just run around as a spy, you'll get blown up and burned every 7 seconds.

The worst part is most medics only heal soldiers and heavies, so I make sure to always give a spy a good little boost before he goes in and keep a distance behind a pyro since he can do more damage than a soldier. God, I hate medics that only heal one or two certain units, and I'm running around screaming with only 15 HP left.

no because backstab is incredible powerful, but the spy is incredibly undetectable. I'm not mad because 'aw i suck as spy' in fact, its my best fucking class, and frankly it requires less practice than any other class. But the only thing I want back from TFC is that spys dont disappear as their alternate, they fake death on the ground, though its impossible to do with the source engine unfortunately.

You can only be invisible for about 15 seconds if that, and it takes about 45 seconds to regenerate it. After recent updates, getting a backstab on a moving unit (even if they're moving straight) feels nigh impossible, so it's now for sure the weakest class. Give him cloaking for an extra 10 seconds and regeneration at 1.5x speed, and he'd be much better.

Also, the medic's bonesaw and the sniper's machete are each far more powerful than the butterfly knife, so if you don't get a backstab you're dead.

You can sometimes take out a pyro if you run away quick and shoot at them.

However, soldiers and demomen can easily take you out in a single hit. I really hate those demomen that  seem to somehow know you're there, even if you're cloaked and have been cloaked for about 10 seconds.

To a spy, yes.

Otherwise, it doesn't do much to other classes.
