In every multiplayer game, and even most singleplayer games, at some point I get the urge to throw and hit stuff. Every game manages to frustrate me in some way, be it bad balance, bad design or just me sucking at it.

But not TF2. The game is in its entirety fun. No frustration for me in TF2, not even when I'm doing bad. No urges to hurt something or someone in real life. Even being on the receiving end of your nemesis' sniper rifle for the fifth time in a row is fun when you hear him say "Thanks for standing still, wanker!". I just can't get angry at it.

Fun fun fun fun fun fun.
 
Yeah, I know what you mean. Everything's too silly to take seriously. Like even when you get blown to bits by an obnoxious Demo, the game helpfully points out, "there's your liver!" Even death is funny.

I love how much everyone loves this game. Go Valve!
 
I only get slightly annoyed when a demoman right next to me insta-kills my face while he takes no damage from his shots.

****ing what
 
Yeah demo man is seriously bullshit. Just spam nades all day for cheap kills. It's by far the noobiest class there is.
 
Oh boy, this game is so fun...it gives me a stiffy every time.

Spamming all four of his grenades? They're easily avoided unless in cramped quarters and once the demo has expended them he's very vulnerable. So he can't just "spam" grenades, every grenade counts.
 
Fun fun fun fun fun fun.

QFT

The most frustration I've experienced is when the teams are clearly imbalanced in terms of player experience, or the match has descended into a scoutathon/Spyfest, but otherwise I'd have to agree wholeheartedly. It's a nice contrast to CS, which on some pubs can be positively grim in terms of atmosphere and intensity.
 
Looking at screenies, watching vids, and reading all of your praise is certainly reassuring.

The game looks incredibly fun to play, even if it seems simplistic in nature.
I'm not sure how I'll like it since I've been playing TFC for about 6 years now.
 
I've found this too.

How can you get annoyed when ya killed and ya head's head rolling about on the floor?

Love it! :D
 
How can you get annoyed with all the funny little pictures that you can take/sounds you hear?! <3.
 
I've only gotten frustrated once - it was on the hardest Dustbowl config, they had a near-perfect defence and my team refused to work together at all.

Apart from that my emotions have mostly been along the lines of, "Yes that was ****ing awesome", "Ooooooooooaaahhhgh I was soo close to a triple backstab!" or impatience at the respawn timer.

Let's see, when half the server is playing demoman, and you're facing let's say 6 demomen at a chokepoint. 6x4=24. That's a barrage of grenades that's constantly flying at you. It's no surprise it got nerfed.
