TF2 is far better than any other FPS I have ever played excluding 'Counter Strike' of course, with a unique and almost 'child friendly' vibe. With added 'hats' and 'different' weapons or 'different' takes on already existing weapons.

Gameplay is great and each of the 9 classes are completely unique with their own skills and weapons to master, Spy being the hardest and Heavy being the easiest (in my opinion), even though some may find the game repetitive and a '1 night fling' sort of game, it is still worth playing as it is a free to play.

The 'Online Policies' are not too bad but some items can cost and outrageous amount of money, but all can be avoided by buying items from tf2shop and trading with the online community at backpack.tf and etc.

But this game being 'Profitable' is not its only strong point, mastering and or becoming experienced at this game creates a much better play style and enjoyable game. Being competitive like most FPS (not COD -_-) learning the each classes strong point and weakness is fun and knowing which class can detect or kill another class easily is fun and interesting, for example if an engineer is not guarding his buildings they can be wiped out in seconds by Snipers or a by the Spy's sapper, if you consist as a team of all Heavies without 'Pocket Medics' you are not going to get very far if the neighbourhood Spy or Sniper comes along and says "Hi!".
Pyros mostly end up as Spy detectors if you are not an experienced player and help protect the Engineer and his ammo consuming buildings, and of course the Medic being one of the most quintessential points to a team’s success, if paired up with a Demoman or a Soldier and of course a Heavy.

Each class has three main ways to attack its 'prey', a primary weapon (the Heavy's minigun, Pyro's flamethrower, Engineer's sentry gun, etc.) and secondary (various classes have shotguns, others pistols, while the Demoman has a highly effective mine thrower) and melee weapons (the Scout's bat, the Medic's ‘bone saw’, and so on). Teamwork is also another vital part when it comes to winning against the 'enemy team'. As I find TF2 a great team builder along with 'Counter Strike'
Overall the game is a must play and especially coming from someone like me who has over 900 hours with the game: D
