Team Fortress 2 (2/4) - Classes

Team Fortress 2 classes (characters) are divided into 3 groups:

Attack
Defense
Support

Each group is then further divided into 3 classes:

Attack:

1. Soldier: Personally, my favorite class at the moment. He uses rockets as a primary weapon. He can use said rockets to "rocket jump" up very high in the air. He moves pretty slowly, but he's very powerful.

2. Pyro: I find him annoying, but he's not bad. He uses a flamethrower for a primary weapon (short range). He can actually deflect the soldier's rockets if using the original flamethrower.

3. Scout: A Bostonian. Very egotistical, but hilarious. He can jump 2 times and captures control points twice as fast as any other class. He uses a shotgun (usually) as a primary weapon.

Defense:

Demoman: Scottish! He uses many explosives, hence the name, "Demoman." He can use his stickybombs to jump great distances, too.

Engineer: Very useful for team efforts and defending points. He can build dispensers to heal and supply ammo to other players, sentry guns to protect certain locations, and teleporters (one entrance and one exit) to teleport team members to various locations. Only one of each building can be built at one time. His primary weapon is a shotgun.

Heavy: Oh…. the heavy…. he's probably TF2's most recognized character. He's a big ol' Russian who carries around a minigun as a primary weapon.

Support:

Medic: The medic is able to heal characters on whatever team he is on. He himself is constantly healed if he's hurt, but it's a pretty slow regeneration rate. He can also overhaul a teammate and "ubercharge" him. That makes the medic and the one being healed invulnerable to damage for a short amount of time. He uses a syringe gun most of the time for a primary weapon.

Sniper: The sniper is basically what you think. He's an Australian who just basically hides, and snipes people. If you decide to make him your most used class, you can became unstoppable. I've seen some pretty crazy snipers…. crazy in a good way. He uses a…. you guessed it! He uses a sniper rifle for a primary weapon.

Spy: Ah…. the spy is one of the most fun classes to play. He uses a revolver for a primary weapon, but his melee weapon is far better. He uses a knife for a melee weapon, and if you backstab a member of the opposite team with it…. ouch. Instant kill, unless the opponent is ubercharged. He can take on the identity of enemy members and "sap" enemy engineer buildings. He's mysterious, and devious.

Also, each class can find new weapons and craft new things. That will be discussed in a later post.
