I've not touched this game in 10 years, easily logged 1100 hours and made a ton of good friends along the way.

Deciding to come back to TF2 and check out the new changes, and what I assumed was new weapons, I found that only 3 or 4 new weapons (non skins / re-skins) were released since the last time I played back in 2012.

None of the old community servers I frequented were alive anymore, so I decided to go and check out the default game mode match making, and not more than 20 seconds after getting into a match, was bombarded by 20+ sniper bots spinhacking and aimbotting on BOTH team, yes; BOTH. TEAMS-- but they were perfectly able to avoid one another, while effectively clearing out the entire lobby of any and all human players.

All in all, I personally- genuinely don't know how to fix this game, or what could even be done to bring it back from its current state.

if you're thinking about getting into TF2, I'd say you have two choices, either go to community servers where players are the admins and keep the servers clean, or stay clear of this game.
