Team Fortress Classic
| |
Team Fortress 2: Brotherhood of Arms was originally announced as a commercial expansion pack that would ship a few months following the release of Half-Life. But Valve�s plans for Team Fortress 2 changed and the expansion pack plans were dropped. Fortunately, while working on Half-Life development tools and source code for mod makers, Valve decided that the best way to test the mod development tools was to develop a mod with the tools themselves.
The result was Team Fortress Classic, which was released in April 1999 as a free add-on with the 1.0.0.9 patch. So if you have a patched version of Half-Life, you already have TFC.
TFC is basically a brighter, better balanced, more professional, and prettier version of the original Team Fortress, which was a popular modification for the original Quake. Thus, realism is pretty much thrown out the window in favor of intense action, skill, and teamwork. Remember, there is no �I� in �Team Fortress!�

Getting Started

TFC can be a little intimidating to the newcomer. If you don�t want to look (and die) like an idiot, read some of this slop!
If you're a newbie, start with an easy class like Soldier. Also, don't shoot people on your own team. It strips their armor away and makes them hate you.
