I just got the Orange box last night and I've played barely enough to say which one but I'm leaning towards the Soldier mostly but there is also the scout and heavy to consider. I haven't played as the the engineer yet which I think looks like a very good class.

According to the Orange Box minimum specs, you don't NEED a gaming computer. :D

Which is why I now love Valve so much.

If it's DirectX 9, it'll probably work, even if it's integrated. I can play Half Life 2 with a Radeon Xpress 200m card well.

Ah, yes. The good old days of building a level 3 sentry turret and camping in front of a door. Good times.

Terin
November 6th, 2007, 06:32 PM
Couldn't a demoman be able to take care of turrets? It looks like he can throw explosives, so you'd be able to reach places where a turret lies in wait.

Engineer sounds like something I'd like to play as, too. Building, repairing, and maintaining has always been fun for me. Either that, or medic so I can see people futilely shoot at a Heavy. :D

Also, apparently there's a "gifting" feature available for Half Life 2 and Episode One for those who bought the Orange Box and had either of those. Did that apply to any of you in this thread? I downloaded the demo and I'm hooked. :>

LOL a blast from the past, eh? Intel has some pretty good graphics being developed right now.

Now after playing for a lot more today, I'm gonna have to say that the Soldier is my favourite class for killing people. Here's my reasoning:

-good speed
-excellent firepower
-work great mixed with other classes and for defense of Heavies.

LMAO I got 5 Critical Hits with the Heavy just by headshotting guys in the when they run around the corner of the balcony on 2Fort.

An amazing group to send out over the bridge in 2Fort when it's slightly clear is this:

-3 Soldiers
-2 Demomen
-2 Pyros
-2 Medics
-1 Heavy

Earlier today I was playing with a bunch of people and I managed to rally these people together and run across the bridge after the all clear from the snipers. 2 Scouts ran through to draw fire while we trudged up to the Red base and laid waste to all the Reds we saw. I managed to stay alive with 23 Health as a Soldier and get 5 Kills without dying. This is where I earned my first achievement: "Hard to Kill."

Two more things: Engineers dominate the sewers, and the Demomen are better at offense than defense which is their proper category.

Emmzee
November 6th, 2007, 09:22 PM
I earned that and the pyro achievement at the same time.

Amit
November 6th, 2007, 09:24 PM

Nice, yesterday I cooked 2 or 3 soldiers and a heavy in Granary. Unfortunately the demoman just busted in and blew me to hell. Also, it's just nasty when you see a fellow heavy running across the bridge with you and then hang back just for you to turn around and see you're team mate get back stabbed by a Heavy-turned Spy.

Emmzee

I was scout one time, and I got ubered. I got 3 kills with the bat before a turret put me down.

On 360 version the kids are so fucking bad.

"DICK DICK CUNT PISS."
"SHUT THE FUCK UP FAG."
"WHY DON'T YOU SHUT UP YOU ARE THE FAGGEST FAG FAG."
And then we're off in the corner helping each other out.

This is why they have team switching. So you can get them to shut the fuck up.

Look at the differences in Episode 2 and then Team Fortress 2. Pretty much no relation whatsoever in gameplay. Sounds are recycled from Half-Life 2 in to the rest of the Source Engine games.

Sorry for thread-resurrection, but the Scout is now my favorite class evar. It's so satisfying to shoot enemies with the scatter gun and watch them hit the floor dead, then run off to another target.

Also, I beat down a heavy with a bat one time and the scout said "Beat it, fatty!" That was awesome. Then I got killed by a mad demoman and soldier rush.

dg
December 11th, 2007, 01:25 PM
Aye carumba, so I miss these threads when I'm out a computer?

I love the Medic. I usually team up with a pyro or soldier throughout an entire game. It's real satisfying when I hit the Ubercharge right when we get the Intelligence on 2Fort. :-)

Wow, I realized how over powered the demomen are. In servers that don't have instant spawn, Its so easy to just camp right outside of spawn points and catch people in a sticky trap as soon as they exit the base. Doing so, I can rake up so many kills repeatedly as they continuously get frustrated.

Also, on this one 32 player server playing dustbowl. Everyone went ALL engineers on defense. What we did was literally build an impenetrable wall of about 15 sentry guns right next to the exit of the spawn point. For the whole match no one could leave the spawn area.

Demomen can launch grenades way too far. The above scenario is awesome.

I can't get close enough to people to be effective as a Pyro. I get raped as soon as I can catch someone on fire.

I'm actually not half bad as a heavy, I can deal a lot of damage. I can't kill anything, but I can at least widen a gap so my teammates can finish them off.

As for the Spy... I keep forgetting to make sure no one's around before I decloak. People seem to notice that Pyros don't have cloaking.

Medic, never played, Sniper, Demoman, same.

Soldier, I just fire rockets randomly. Sometimes I hit stuff, normally I'm cut down by Sentries.

Engineer is my new favorite class. I cower behind my Sentry, and make sure I made a dispenser nearby so I can keep hiding behind my Sentry and protect it from Uber-Soldiers.

I've used the Scout once, and that one time, I was pretty good. I ran in there, shot stuff, and ran for my life. That worked until my team was pinned down, and I tried to punch through their blockade and take them out, or at least distract them. I didn't even come close.

Indeed. I've once been basically glued to a Heavy when playing as a Medic, just because he was so damn good. He didn't squander Ubercharges or get into any tight situations, and maybe got sniped only once. Two other medics agreed. Yes, three medics on a heavy. We won btw.

I've started taking a liking to the engy on dustbowl defence.

And I had a serious laugh yesterday
we'd capped the first point on dustbowl , and we went up the tunnel. there were like 3 engys making a pain of themselves, so the whole team trys to take them out (supported by a medic).
I'd been busy doing my thing, and as i get up there, the medic's heavy just dies as the medic gets his uber charge.

I'm a spy, disguised as an engy and was planing on running up to sap the sentrys and I just got the best idea ever.

"hey medic, charge me!"

just as I was finishing the sentry's, the rest of the team comes up behind me and finish's the engys and their stuff.

Then I proceeded to get behind their lines (easy to do on es_mining, since the map creators allowed full access to all 7 control points and their surrounding areas from the get-go) and got about twelve people chasing me while my team got the cart to the next cp. I died (after about :45), we advanced, and I lol'd.

Seriously, that was quite handy for me when I got into TF2.
at first I thought the cloak would be disabled as soon as you stabbed.
When I first picked spy, I wondered why the fuck I couldn't stab while cloaked.
