Wild to know it was still running on 32 bit.

I don’t know why, but I find it really amusing that articles about tf2 still use screenshots from the beta (iirc that muzzle flash particle effect on Heavy’s gun was only in TF2’s beta)
This always happens. The first pre-release screenshots are the ones with the most views so tend to appear at the top of Google searches. Guaranteeing them to be used in most news stories for years to come. Which gives them more views. Which gives them a higher Google rank. Etc…
In what state is the game nowadays? Is it just the veteran players and nothing else?
Depends on what mode you’re playing.
Primarily, there’s casual matchmaking, which actually is full of new players. Sadly, especially in off-hours, there’s also a lot of bots hosted by some mentally unstable script kiddies (no joke, they buy in a bot hosting framework and just pop that on a VPS somewhere) dedicated to ruining the game for everyone with aimbots, mic and chat spam etc. They abuse the fact that Valve hasn’t updated the anticheat in what feels like years. Regardless, there are still tons of healthy games to be found and bots usually are kicked within seconds.
Additionally, there are community servers which, depending on the actual community playing there, can have bonkers veterans or absolute noobs. These servers often are modded, too.
My experience about a year ago. Try to hop into a game and find people complaining about bots and just vote kicking people constantly, then I got vote kicked. Join some more games that vary from people just standing around taunting, to more vote kicking, and everyone wearing stupid looking hats and shit. I used to love the game back in the day, but I gave up on it after a short time, it just felt unplayable.
Is THIS the heavy update? LoL
If yall don’t like TF2, you could always come back to Tean Fortress Classic.
I remember seeing this video about TF2. It was originally going to be less cartoony. I kinda wish they had kept going that realistic route.
If it did, it would have been forgotten like the dozens of other military shooters.
Awesome! Now update your anticheat
