Team Fortress 2

Revision as of 12:10, 24 December 2007

Introduction

Team Fortress® 2 (TF2) is the sequel to the game that put class-based, multiplayer team warfare on the map. This year’s most anticipated online action game, TF2 delivers new gametypes, a signature art style powered by Valve’s next generation animation technology, persistent player statistics, and more.

Unlike other “class-based” games that offer a variety of combat classes only, Team Fortress 2 packs a wild variety of classes which provide a broad range of tactical abilities and personalities, and lend themselves to a variety of player skills.

Play as the flame-throwing Pyro, the room clearing Heavy, or the Spy, a master of disguises. Other classes include: Scout, Sniper, Medic, Engineer, Demoman, or Soldier.

TF2 features the most advanced graphics of any Source-based game released to date – and the most exciting class-based action ever created.

Custom Maps

Note: You may need to download all these maps from the following locations as server is not configured to automagicly transfer (or sometimes it does, but V E R Y S L O W L Y)!

Maps should be extracted to your /Steam/*account name*/teamfortress 2/tf/maps directory. I recommend IZarc as it covers most archive file types including ISO's and is easy to use.
