While loathe to admit it, I like the idea and having to(somewhat)grind through achievements to secure a 'milestone'. It gives me a goal to strive for. It took me 6 weeks of casual playing to get all 3 scout milestones. Afterwards though, I lost some interest in TF2 since I had nothing to work towards(other then piling up stats). Haven't played enough of the new system to decide how good/bad it is.
