fps on consoles
thats cute :P
Heh
Retarded elitist attitude cause you think you're special cause you play FPS on PC's.
That's cute.
Anyway, good for 360 players, sounds like the update contains many useful options that PC servers have available. I hope for your sakes this is a sign that they're getting their act together about this, they promised a big update quite some time ago.
I my brother took my copy over to his friend's house and I havent seen it since
SNAAAAAAAAKE
It's not that keyboards are better, it's that Mouse aiming is much more precise than aiming with the stick. Keyboards are clunky for moving and changing weapons unless you have something like this

Just ignore Nanbu, he's butt hurt about PC gaming because he lacks the money and know how to build a cheap gaming rig.
@Nanbu
Cool story, bro.
Yes but that is slow compared to just hitting the number key. Although in TF2 all you really need is to utilize the last weapon key which is q. Don't get me wrong I love the keyboard/mouse combo, just for people who are used to the controller find the keyboard a clunky interface as with the controller everything fits in your hand so nicely and your not reaching for things with your fingers, your thumbs and index fingers all that is required to play.
I would say that's about right.
"It's still coming, naturally, but it seems the code jockeys at Valve are having a little difficulty fitting all that updated goodness onto the console's 512 MB of RAM."

The amont of achievements you can put into a game are at a limit, too, and if you wait a few months, you're allowed to put more in the game. Something like that, I know it's on the Team Fortress website.
Anyways, since each Valve update churns out an asston of achievements, putting them into the 360 is a real tough issue. I would imagine they had enough time to put in the first update, at least, but then again I'm not doing the math.
Even when I was bitter that I couldn't afford a good computer, I was still not ignorant enough to dispute that. I can understand being tainted because you can't get a high-end PC, and the hundreds of hours of console LAN-partying, but...c'mon!
man with some a vehement response ur clearly a console elitist :P
I'm not really that elitist, I have A LOT of consoles. I just believe that consoles are good at some things (fps, mmo, rts) and consoles are good at some things (fighting games, beat em ups, action adventures, and in general 3rd person games are more fun on consoles).
Now honestly I wouldn't care if they created fps for consoles, it wouldn't harm pc fps right? but it does ;p
But TF2 is largely not one of them, so like Christiangamer said, I don't care and I do infact think it's kinda cute :P
Mouse wheel for switching weapons in games like COD - Keyboard movement works just fine. Just look at the hardcore Quake/UT tourneys.
Also, to write off "aiming" as "really all that it has" is a bit odd. For non-twitch shooters (and even some twitch shooters), aiming is everything: TF2, specifically as the scout, is one of the only shooters that console controls may be comparable for, because you don't need pinpoint sniping/long range rifle sensitivity like both Call of Duties need.
However, the directional keys in junction with the mouse is so wonky and slippery.
And it's pretty obvious too, it's not like Halo was the first FPS on consoles, half life, serious sam, and all the big ones got ported as well.
They tanked like hell cause they control like crap, but now you have "more realistic" games where it's not so twitch and the parred down abilities of the controller becomes far more able to handle it, not near as well of course but not near as bad as before.
Now don't go through "goldeneye" in there because while the game was awesome it's just MORE of a reason :P First the turning was incredible slow, the aiming was absolutely terrible as well, which is why there was an aim assist. Not to mention practically everything you shot was on the same plane and shooting up or down without being at an angle was a sure way to die (good luck aiming up at someones head and strafing when ur not on an incline.)Also the n64 controller as magical and awesome :P
End of discussion. So all of you STFUAJPG!!
