TF2 Help

[Entei Slider]

Yeah I got TF2 umm about what is it....1 month ago? Close.
Anyway,My question is, I play any TF2 game such as Arena or Capture the flag. I play for about 5 minutes and the game litterally FREEZES with lag. Anyone know how to fix this or is my computer just not fit to run TF2 (waist of 20 frickin dollars).

You could lower the graphics and play in windowed mode.
If that doesn't help then it's your computer.

I'll try that Professor.

Well, I probably would have taken a computer test to see if it works. More then likely it might be your RAM, or maybe your Video Driver/Card (if it's really THAT bad).

Not to insult you Niko, but that's honestly a horrible site. It says my laptop can run Crysis even though it clearly cannot. If TF2 keeps freezing on you, than it's probably a graphical issue, or your computer is just too god damn old. Like Gallows said, lower the resolution to 800x600 and put all settings to low. If you continue to experience these problems, than it's your computer's fault.

And for Christ's sake don't say it's a waste of $20. TF2 is one of the best games out there and it's not a waste of money just because you didn't do your research before going out and buying a PC game.


EDIT: Here's a nice "Can you run it?" site that I stumbled upon a while back.

Yeah, it also hasn't worked for me on some games either. It says TF2 can barely run on my Dad's Laptop, but it runs clean and smoothly, with a few minor lag issues here and there. I'm just seeing what negative facts he gets from the test.
