Hey Guys,
BTW, sorry for the Preivious post, apparently google chrome doesn't
like the tab button...
Well, under the advice of Mr. Lace I've taken the liberty of doing a
overview of TF2 for those of you who don't know what it is.

Basically, TF2 is a Massive Multiplayer Online Class Based Objective
game. Whether it be Capture the Flag, Control Point, or Payload maps.
There are 9 classes:
The Scout: A fast little bugger, is equipped with a scattergun, a
pistol, and a bat. Special Power: Double Jump
The Soldier: Slower than most, is equipped with a rocket launcher, a
shotgun, and a shovel. Special Power: Rocket Jumps
The Pyro: Regular speed, is equipped with a flamethrower, a shotgun,
and a fire axe. Special Power: The power to annoy the crap out of
people. (Just kidding, but they are pretty annoying :P)
The Demoman: The demolitions expert, is equipped with a grenade
launcher, a stickybomb launcher (which does what it sounds like it
does, has mines that stick to walls, ceilings, and floors. Is remote
detonate able.), and a bottle of whiskey as a melee weapon. Special
Power: Sticky Jump
The Heavy Weapons Guy: Or as i like to call him, the fatty. He is
equipped with a Minigun, a shotgun, and his fists as a melee weapon.
Special Power: He can pre-rotate his barrel.
The Engineer: The building expert. He is equipped with a shotgun, a
pistol, a wrench, a building modulater (with which he builds his
buildings with), and a destructo modulator, (with which he destroys
his own buildings with.) The engineer can build 4 types of buildings:
A sentry gun, a dispenser, an in-teleporter, and an out-teleporter.
Each of these buildings in able to be upgraded 2 times each upgrade
making the building better. The engineer also has a restriction of
metal, the material he uses to make and upgrade these buildings.
Special Power: able to build stuff
The Medic: The healer of the group, is equipped with a medi-gun, which
shoots syringes, a healing array, which heals people, and a surgical
saw, for melee. Special Power: Able to heal people to the point where
he receives an Uber-Charge, making the target of his healing
Invulnerable
The Sniper: My personal favorite, is equipped with a sniper rifle, an
smg, and a kukri. Special Power: Headshots
(btw, the kukri is basically a large knife.)
And finally, The Spy: The tricky one, is equipped with a revolver, a
butterfly-knife, and a disguise changer thing, which he can change
into a member of the opposite team to get into their base. Special
Power: Able to turn invisible for (relatively) short periods of time.

Teams:
There are 2 teams that a person can join when they get into a server,
the Blu team, and the Red team.
The Blu team stands for Builders League United, and Red stands for
Reliable Excavation Demolition. These teams also offer an insight as
to the background of all this fighting. Maybe 2 Construction firms
fighting to take a building contract??

As for the rest of the game, It requires teamwork to complete the
objectives and each class has its weaknesses and strengths when
fighting others. I think it balances nicely and is a great game.

Thanks for reading and hope you enjoyed!
