Team Fortress 2 vs. Left4Dead

VS.

TF2 and L4D are among the most popular first-person shooters on this forum. I'm just curious as to whether you guys prefer one game over another. Cast your votes and post your reasons for making your selection.

Also, keep in mind you're not necessarily voting for the "best" game, just the one you like more.

You can't really compare them, since both are a different type of game and each game is best in its category, but if I'd have to say one, then TF 2 :).

But I'll vote them as equal.

L4D, all the way!

I know I'm comparing apples to oranges here. Still though, the two games have a lot in common and tend to appeal to the same group of players. I'm just curious if there's any kind of favoring one way or the other on this forum.

I have palyed L4D once and it was great,but I have never played TF2 :o

Why didn't you get The Orange Box last weekend for $10? You missed out on a fantastic deal.

Team Fortress 2!

I'd say TF2, but for some reason its glichy (like when I want to change servers it crashes). But for gameplay its much better. L4D gets a bit repetitive after a while even though the zombies do change places.

I'm downloading Left4Dead right now. Team Fortress is good but i got bored of it.

Id have to say TF2

I seriously doubt that that deal is in my country also.

You probably missed it.

I find it very interesting that there are many more Left4Dead players than TeamFortress 2. A lot of this has to do with the current sale and free-trial for the game, but Left4Dead generally has around 20,000+ players while as TF2 is more like 15,000-18,000. Judging from the votes so far though, it seems like this forum generally prefers TF2.

Team Fortress 2 cuz of the great future updates, maps, and friends I play with

I enjoy TF2 because it just doesn't get old and you can play it for hours without getting bored. I also love it because I always play mindgames as spy. "What? A Heavy behind our lines! Must be a teleporter!" 5 seconds later *KNIFE* "BLEH!" "You got blood on my suit, you ***"

Yeah, this is apples vs oranges. I like L4D for playing coop with friends and TF2 competitively (I hate L4D vs)

Final bump for more votes. Results are interesting so far, I wasn't expecting TF2 to have such a lead.

Both of them didn't really hold my attention for too long. I guess TF2 because of the SDK, that hasn't been released yet for L4D :P.

I wonder if L4D has finished downloading yet on my PC. And I wonder how much time is left on the free trial. I may not get a chance to sample it.... I wish I had pre-loaded it a day earlier.. I started DL'ing last night about 7 central. And this morning it was only at about 40%....Threesixtyci

Well it was extended to Saturday.

Oh and TF2 I like the games multiplayer alot though L4D has some awesome co-op.

It's a totally unfair comparison

i love both, but i've found that i tend to choose tf2 more when i have nothing else to do

I like them both, but I haven't really felt like playing TF2 for some time. Not really sure why. I play L4D all the time, though.

Team Fortress 2 is far superior.

I like both, but since tf2 has more content I find it more fun to play more often.

I got bored of Left 4 Dead and started playing some TF2 for awhile, but when the update came out i wanted to try out the new survival mode and really was happy that they put the other 2 campaigns on multiplayer. Now I've been playing it alot lately, but i would have to say they are both awesome games and i dont think i can choose

Equal to me, although I play more L4D nowadays than TF2.

I enjoy both games almost exactly the same.

Team Fortress2 and Left4Dead both are MUST own games imo. Team Fortress2 = 10/10 and Left4Dead = 9.7/10 i guess? :P

Im just a sucker for online games that require teamwork, i love working as a tema and helping teammates (:

What i don't understand is why CSS has more players then TF2. TF2 FTWbut L4d is a really good game too.RedxSniper

I love CS:S and play it everyday, more than L4D or TF2. does it really have more players than TF2? says who Gamespy?

i switch between the two but so far TF2 has more of my friends playing and ALOT more content released (snipers bow is pimp). but yeh they are both excellent games.

I have TF2 on PC and L4D on 360 so I'm good. My mic doesnt work with Steam so I dont see the point of getting L4D on PC.

I like both, but TF2 is far better.

I play tf2 almost everyday, while I play L4D about once a month. With L4D, I usually only play the campaign mode. I much prefer TF2 over the VS mode in L4D.

There were a couple games on the original Xbox called Hunter: the Reckoning and its sequel which I loved. That was in 2002? That was the last 4 player zombie coop game that I played before L4D. Its great that Valve ressurected 4 player coop. For that, I'm happy, but nothing beats the competitive play of TF2.

TF2 you just keep on playing. L4D is boring after hours of playing and makes you wish there is a refund button in Steam.
