TF2 online getting almost unplayable?

I've enjoyed this game a lot even with it's glitches. I've put up with the lag for a long time. I've played for around 200 hours but now it's starting to seem more like a chore. You get glitchers almost every other game it seems like or someone on your team helping the enemy. I'll give an example of this i went into a game and a medic was healing one of my teammates but then i find out it was really a spy so i kill him. Then yet again the same medic is healing the spy.I think to myself ''Oh this medic must be new'' but i was very wrong the spy stabs me and the medic sees yet continues to heal him. Then another case a heavy and a medic some how get into the respawn chamber(not where health and ammo is where you literally respawn). So he just sits there and kills a lot of my teammates until i finally get him after dying like four times. So then i look and there's a spy standing infront of the door to allow the heavy and medic in.Anyone else see a lot of cheating and what are your thoughts on this? It seems like they'd get suspended for these actions i mean glitching inside of the opponents base? How fair is that? Anyway before someone comes in here and says stop whining i'm not whining i normally just leave if there's too many cheaters and find a better room.TF2 online getting almost unplayable?
I gave up pretty quickly due to the lag. Just went back to playing CoD 4.TF2 online getting almost unplayable?
[QUOTE=''fkholmes'']I gave up pretty quickly due to the lag. Just went back to playing CoD 4.[/QUOTE] I can't play COD4 anymore it just got dull to me. I even tried buying the maps which didn't help. The only mode i started to like a lot was hardcore TDM but that's full of idiots and how it puts you in the same lobby like 10 times in a row. Though the game was great while it lasted i put at least 200 hours into it. Edit: Alittle off-topic but Dexter's my favorite series.
i know what you mean. the best thing you can do is stop playing. :?
[QUOTE=''Xeros606'']i know what you mean. the best thing you can do is stop playing. :?[/QUOTE] That's actually what i plan on doing. There's far too many great singleplayer games coming out this month. I'm not going to renew my subscription for a while. I just hope that when i do start playing again there wont be as much.

TF2 is fine when I play it, no lag unless the host has a crap connection.
[QUOTE=''leperphiliac'']TF2 is fine when I play it, no lag unless the host has a crap connection.[/QUOTE] Yeah i don't get too much lag most of the time and when i do i switch rooms although the random disconnected messages are annoying but i was talking more about the cheaters that play.
I just bought the game actually last friday lol and have really enjoyed it so far. I haven't run into any lag yet. The only problem I have with it are the spies. There will be times when I know someone is a spy and I start shooting them and hitting them and everything and they are seemlessly unaffected by it and go about their business. I have no clue what's going on then and I know they're spies because after i try shooting them mutliple times they sap my sentry and try to kill me. Anyways apart from that, after hours of play some of the other parts of the game that really annoyed me at the beginning I've grown around.
well the new updates and weapons are set to come out this year which should fix the skywalking. as for lag, i always host my own games. usually 7v7 although im getting a new router which should let me host 8v8 game soon.
The game sucks for Xbox, if you want to play it in all its glory, you will need a mediocer computer. The game looks ugly running at 30fps (atleast thats what it looks like its running it).
get an awesome pc and play TF2.

I had to buy Team Fortress 2 on PC even though i had the 360 version. The PC verison has so many more people playing, less lag, thousands of user made levels and mods. I wish they did a better job on the TF2 for 360 and i wish more people gave the gaem a chance.
I still play TF2 once in a while, I get annoyed as well.

I prefer PC community rather than kids from manchester rapping and stuff.
i gave up a long time ago. couldn't take the lag.
If this was Halo, COD, Gears etc the devs would have patched it up and fixed the glitches - just keep that in mind when Left4Dead comes out.I gave up with TF2 on 360 and got it for PC where not only have the glitches been fixed and repeat offenders accounts banned, but there are loads of new maps, new modes, cIass upgrades, new achievements, skills and weapons.
I love TF2, although I have to agree, it is almost unplayable...assuming you're playing by yourself. I usually play with my roomate and a friend of ours on the same team and when you have a group of people actually communicating and working together, you can win almost every time. I don't ever lag out as I host almost all the games I play in(which are always 8x8)and even if you do run into people that glitch in the game, skywalk, spawn camp, and do any other ridiculous tactic you can still beat them(My teammates and I have countless times)which makes the victory even more satisfying. I will admit that there are some pretty unenjoyable things about TF2 but overall it's an amazingly fun online game. I personally can't wait until they release all the new content for the 360.
