----
Team Fortress 2 (TF2) is the sequel to the game that put
class-based, multiplayer team warfare on the . A long time
coming, TF2 was first announced in 1998, but in the years that
followed went through various concept and design changes, which
left it looking less and less like the beloved original release.
Luckily by the time the final version came off the presses and
was bundled as part of EA?s 2007 release, The Orange Box, it had
returned to something very close to the original game.
The return of a classic

.Gameplay
Built around multiplayer battles of two teams, Reliable
Excavation Demolition (RED) and Builders League United (BLU),
representing competing construction teams, players choose between
two game modes: capture the (CTF) and a control point mode.
In CTF the objective is to obtain a briefcase of intelligence
from the enemy team's base and return it to their own base while
preventing the sing team from doing the same. In the control
point mode the objective is similar, only related to holding
particular territories. To be successful in either the most
important thing is to understand and use each character class in
the best way possible.
A Game That's a Class Operation
Unlike other "class-based" games that offer a variety of combat
classes only, Team Fortress 2 features a wide variety of classes
which provide a broad range of abilities and
personalities, and lend themselves to a variety of player skills.
All nine playable character classes from the original game are
available and although a few of these, like the Medic and Heavy
generally work well with any mix of characters, overall each have
particular strengths in offensive, defensive and support
capacities. Each also will respond dynamically with different
comical dialogue when in combat.
The full character classes include:
* Pyro - An offensive class with average damage tolerance, Pyros
are armed with a flamethrower, and a fire axe.
* Engineer - A defensive class with a low threshold for damage,
Engineers can upgrade weapons and equipment and are armed with a
, a pistol and a wrench.
* - Used for sabotage the carries a revolver, a butterfly
, an electronic zapper and a diguise kit.
* Heavy - Tough on offense and defense the Heavy's weapons are
the mini, the and his fists.
* Sniper - A support class with low damage tolerance, the Sniper
is armed with a sniper , a submachine and a machete.
* Scout - The Scout is fast but susceptible to damage. His
weapons are a sawed off , a pistol and a baseball bat.
* Soldier - A slow, but a powerful offensive class, the soldier
wields a rocket launcher, a and a spade.
* Demoman - A defense class with an average a of protection,
the Demoman is armed with a remotely detonated sticky bomb and a
bottle of Scotch.
* Medic - Medics keep other characters alive and are armed with a
healing 'medi,' a syringe-firing launcher and a saw.The
importance of the abilities of particular classes aside, far and
away the dominant factor in Team Fortress 2 and the secret to its
popularity, is its clear dedication to fun. This is seen in its
rejection of realism in favor of cartoon-style art in the game's
graphics, the inclusion of super weapons like lasers and missile
launchers hidden within the six standard s and the attention
given to each character's incidental t talking functionality.
Combined, these simply make for fast-paced, over-the-top fun
which are the building blocks of any multiplayer shooter.
