I used to play a ton before the Mann store which made the game go... weird. Also I am a tiny bit hipster when it comes to games. I still read Ubercharged.net for fun though, and the TF2 characters are a real triumph and the community was/(is) brilliant.

I don't even know half the weapons (I'm assuming they are weapons and not hats) you guys are talking about lol...

So cute how you're complaining about pyro. You didn't even experience backburner +75 health pyros.


I main Pyro, and BB Powerjack pyros are crap. Any kind of good player (on Reddit servers, or Brony servers) will eat a BB + Powerjack pyro for breakfast.

No. The scariest pyros are the good ones using the degreaser.


Lol you're so new that you don't even know what I'm talking about.

You think the Soda Popper is overpowered? :/ It was so inferior to the Scattergun that I complained if my team mates were using it.

There are plenty of good snipers in TF2, and I think the fact that TF2 has a higher number of projectile weapons (rather than hitscan weapons) means the sniper can pick off almost helpless targets such as heavy's/demomen/medics/pyros at long range - even sniper vs soldier at long range, the sniper can move out of the way of rockets. Headshots can quickly kill off half the enemy team if you've got good aim..
Opportunities will present themselves. Recognize them, act on them.

He's talking about when the degreaser didn't even exist and the flamethrowers used to do considerably more damage and the backburner had some rediculous stats, such as giving +50 health to pyros.

Ah, OK. I saw the +75 health, and you can only get that by killing someone with the PowerJack as Pyro, and only ever could get it from that.

LiNk coming out with "you're so new that you don't even know what I'm talking about" when he's wrong about the health ^_^ Looking at the patch notes, it only ever gave +50 health.

You're right. My bad.

My first advice is to not focus on the weapon loadouts or hats, to start with. When I first started, I thought the reason I got roflstomped is because my opponents had better weapons. For the most part, stock weapons do fine.

Second piece of advice: get off the NighTeam, Skial server etc. They have premium users, use bots and are overall pretty bad. I advise looking for Reddit servers and/or My Little Pony servers. It depends on where you live and play from. In Australia... I don't even know any servers there, sorry =/

Third piece of advice: http://www.reddit.com/r/NewToTF2/
Helps a lot, if you need to ask questions about anything, the guys are all pretty helpful. Also some tips and tricks/better advice than I have on there.

Fourth piece of advice: don't feel the need to practice only one class. Play all of them until you feel comfortable and know enough to say definitively which class you enjoy most.

Fifth piece of advice: Don't get caught up in points. The scoreboard can be very misleading. From a pyro's perspective, you get the same number of points for extinguishing a team-mate as you do for reflect headshotting a Bow and Arrow sniper (proud to say I've managed that =] ). The most important thing is that you feel you are contributing to the team effort. If that means you have to camp at the Intelligence (/flag) or heal people when you aren't getting any kills, that's fine.

Sixth piece of advice: http://wiki.teamfortress.com/wiki/Main_Page <---use that wiki, not the tf2 wiki. This one is better, it has more articles in it and is generally just better.
