As some of you know, we FINALLY (after two months) have our team fortress 2 server running. With that said, many of you have never played or are inexperienced in this game. And this is why this thread exists.
Team fortress 2 is a very popular online first person shooter. Recently Team fortress 2 became free (via steam). However, there is a difference between a free user and a premium user. If you wish to become a full fleged premium user, buy any item from the team fortress 2 shop (in the main menu). Items as cheap as .49 cents will give you the full premium account.
Team fortress 2 is much more complicated than cod. Quite a bit more unique. There is a trading system to trade items, weapons, hats, etc. There are 8 total classes. (Scout Soldier Pyro Demoman Heavy Engineer Medic Sniper Spy) Each class has strengths and weaknesses. (For example pyro is GREAT in short to medium distances but can't do much damage in long distances) and (Engie has a weakness to spy's because spy can sap engie's equipment and so on)
Go to the tf2 wiki page to learn more http://tf2wiki.net/wiki/Main_Page
I also STRONGLY recommend you watch the "meet the" series by valve, it is little animated short films for each charecter showing a story and how their personality is. I found it VERY entertaining and it's a lot of fun.
Here is "Meet the Medic" video [video]http://www.youtube.com/user/teamfortress#p/u/0/36lSzUMBJnc[/video]
And here "Meet the Spy" http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=nnuYi-nzE90
Each character has a video except for pyro. Pyro still does not have a video yet (there are some user improvised versions though)
If you have any questions related to TF2 ask them in this thread, other members and I will gladly answer your questions.
