I've been playing TF2 since 2009. I love this game with all my heart, but cannot recommend it to new players IF you're playing alone. There are major learning curves (or cliffs) that you will run into, hackers, and toxic players. This game is so utterly disregarded by Valve and is heart breaking to see where it is currently. While the 64 bit update was nice, it did not solve a lot of problems the community has with the game. I highly doubt we will ever see Valve put the energy into the game that is so greatly deserves.
