PC compared to console

not-this-again.jpg


I think that this thread somehow will end up in a flame war between console gamers and pc gamers (perhaps some mac users will join in) even thought eGO is PC gaming clan i think there's people that have a xbox or a ps3 or whichever console.

Anyway, as noise says, the Xbox version of TF2 is a LOT different from the PC one, no comment about the ps3 one...

Well, normally a thread whit that kind of title ends up in a fight, so i just thought that.
 
I'm amazed this thread lasted this long but I got the advice I needed fella no need to post here anymore :)
 
im posting here anyway

Im just saying the year i had tf2 for xbox (all the time i still had it for pc, but never played it) was really fun, get together with a few friends on an xbox and play on a crappy 2fort server is really fun. you can still glitch out of dustbowl and gravelpit on the xbox :D
 
I'd have to disagree with everyone. A mouse and keyboard hurt my hands more than an xbox 360 controller. If the xbox 360 had add on content equal to the pc I'd never touch my laptop or a pc for video games. Yes, I have tried to use the xbox 360 for tf2 on my laptop but it doesn't work anymore. Plus joining a server is easier on a game console then having to deal with all the router port set up garbage that has kept me from setting up my own tf2 server on pc.
 
I bought orangebox for 360 a few years ago. Played for a little bit and gave it up. FPS for me are PC only. That little nub for aiming is terrible.... I would live to play a match pc vc 360 just to shot the difference in game play alone. Plus when I played on 360 there were SOOOOO many skywalkers who set up SG,s in the air it was ridiculous. Dust 1 could never be taken there would be 10 sgs on top of the silo in second cap on first round of dustbowl. Finding someone to take care of the problem was even harder. There was nothing you could do, pick another server, I dont know if any of these problems have been fixed but I havent turned on my 360 in a year. Paying for 360 online is crap too.....

Do what i did when people skywalked in dust 1. Just wait till the last min of the round and spy cap.Worked 80% of the time.
 
I was on 360 as well for nearly a year

It was all very fun even with the lack of updates. IMO, it should just be re-released as its own down loadable game. All it would have to say is "Team Fortress 2 with over 350 achievements!" that alone would explode the Microsoft servers.

Then if they did they make an even bigger tease and promise a cross platform trading system

=P
 
Sir, TF2, like all games, are vastly superior on PC than console. Ours gets upgraded, it plays as a proper FPS (with a mouse!) and can be modded.
 
Guys, first of all this is starting to get dangerously close to a flame war here. The question wasn't whether PC or console is better. The question was whether somebody who enjoys TF2 on the 360 would also enjoy it on the PC/Mac. Let's try to keep the discussion there and leave out the "consoles suck/PCs suck" comments.

I happen to think he'll enjoy it more, simply because of all of the added content. More maps + more weapons = more fun! :)

Thanks guys :) when I get TF2 I'll let you all know I'll need some people to play with once I do get it and I don't think too many people in INS division have it so I'll post here when I do have TF2

That's actually kind of funny to see to me. Back when INS started it was started by a bunch of TF2 guys and most of the early members of the division came from TF2. My how times have changed.

Yaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaay!!!!!!

Somebody actually agrees with me for once! :) :):):):):):)

I'm sure that was probably the second time...

It might sound silly, but have you tried using the arrow keys or the numpad instead of the traditional WASD? I find WASD uncomfortable since W is off-set from the rest of the keys, so I use the arrow keys. Yeah, there are less keys available to me, but I've gotten quite quick at reaching over to press G to taunt or E to noclip. That said, I've never had a problem joining a server on the PC -- never had to forward any ports. But then I've never tried to run my own server on my PC either. I like ours just fine. :)
