Team Fortress 2 (a.k.a. Trade Fortress 2, Hat Fortress 2, Promo Fortress 2, Team Fashionista 2, Team Freetress 2) is a class-based first-person hat collection simulator. Originally it was a faithful recreation of the original Quake and Half-Life mods, but has since evolved from its original design into a pointless virtual collect-a-thon where the player must collect every rare item they can by any means necessary, in order to inflate their ego and show off their E-peen. The original point of the game revolved around playing gamemodes, such as capturing the enemy intelligence, pushing a bomb to the enemy base, or controlling a whole map by Scout-rushing control points, although now all this became nothing more than a small minigame to pass the time with while you wait for more hats and as time went on, more weapons to magically drop into your inventory while doing fuck all on Achievement or Idle servers.

I think there's some servers called "Vanilla Servers" on TF2. You should try 'em out.

This is blatantly false EA propaganda. TF2 is a war-themed hat simulator updated frequently.

Sadly if you don't have hats some guys will come bragging up about you being a noob.

That seems to be true for the Engineer class. I've noticed that the vanilla engies are borderline useless compared to their fancier counterparts

I love how these arguments always seem to hang on the idea that because some people like achievements and hats that the game is somehow shit now. Sure, there are more weapons, but with the exception of a couple melee weapons none of them are straight up better than the basic weapons.

It is like trying to make the argument that Skyrim is shit because you can get married. If you don't give a shit about in game marriages then don't bother with one, it has no real impact on the game itself.

Hmm, this was really insightful.....so did you guys get that new hat yet? Oh, by the way: "We have a kid in Kansas making $150,000 a year making [virtual] hats."

Secret: If u want to turn all hats in your inventory to unusual hats, Press Alt + F4 when you are in-game.

It only works one time out of 50 though. Rest of the time it quits your game... But you just have to restart it and do it again. With a little patience it's rewarding!
