Team Fortress 2

General description


Question: Where does Team Fortress 2 take place?

Team Fortress 2

Despite the fact that Team Fortress 2 is a multiplayer team shooter, it has a deep plot implication that is unobtrusively revealed by the authors on game maps, as well as in related comics and official video games.


Question: Where does Team Fortress 2 take place?

Team Fortress 2

Team Fortress 2 describes a world in which RED and BLU are secretly fighting.


Question: Where does Team Fortress 2 take place?

Team Fortress 2

They were created by the Manny brothers Blutarch and Redmond, who hated each other because of the undivided gravel lands of their father, Zepheniah Mann.


Question: Where does Team Fortress 2 take place?

Team Fortress 2

“Three television channels, one telephone company and two corporations that secretly control all governments on the planet” [5] [~1].


Question: Where does Team Fortress 2 take place?

Team Fortress 2

RED is short for Reliable Excavation & Demolition - “Royal Excavation and Demolition” (cattle).


Question: Where does Team Fortress 2 take place?

Team Fortress 2

It is known that RED specializes in excavation of reservoirs and mines, blasting operations, production of bread and beer.


Question: Where does Team Fortress 2 take place?

Team Fortress 2

Their team consists of mercenaries [6].


Question: Where does Team Fortress 2 take place?

Team Fortress 2

RED is written in the same way as the name red in English (English: Red) [~ 2], as evidenced by the color scheme of the organization.


Question: Where does Team Fortress 2 take place?

Team Fortress 2

RED buildings and its equipment are made in red and yellow tones, the main building materials are wood, red brick and dark red metal sheets.


Question: Where does Team Fortress 2 take place?

Team Fortress 2

Due to the fact that this organization specializes in demolition and excavation, it is characterized by a “simple” rural style of buildings and sloppiness.


Question: Where does Team Fortress 2 take place?

Team Fortress 2

BLU is short for Builders League United - “Union of Mercenary Engineers” (INS).


Question: Where does Team Fortress 2 take place?

Team Fortress 2

The company specializes in construction, hydropower generation, milk production.


Question: Where does Team Fortress 2 take place?

Team Fortress 2

Like RED, BLU is a front for a large espionage organization [7].


Question: Where does Team Fortress 2 take place?

Team Fortress 2

The name of the organization is similar to the name blue in English (English: Blue) [~2], which is the main color scheme for the organization.


Question: Where does Team Fortress 2 take place?

Team Fortress 2

BLU buildings are made in blue and white colors, made of white brick and metal.


Question: Where does Team Fortress 2 take place?

Team Fortress 2

BLU prefers a more industrial and modern style than RED.


Question: Where does Team Fortress 2 take place?

Team Fortress 2

RED and BLU are fighting irreconcilably for the right to undivided ownership of barren deserts with gravel, which takes various forms of business and unfair competition, including the form of armed Clashes between specially hired mercenaries — Team Fortress 2 classes [5].


Question: Where does Team Fortress 2 take place?

Team Fortress 2

Clashes take the form of controlling territory, capturing important points of the earth, destroying enemy bases and industrial espionage.


Question: Where does Team Fortress 2 take place?

Team Fortress 2

Clashes between companies occur at various industrial sites, such as mines, reservoirs, quarries and power plants.


Question: Where does Team Fortress 2 take place?

Team Fortress 2

Often, under the guise of such organizations, secret spy bases of corporations, computer centers and missile bunkers are hidden.


Question: Where does Team Fortress 2 take place?

Team Fortress 2

Despite the fact that RED and BLU are two completely opposite, irreconcilably warring organizations with opposite areas of specialization, it is quite possible that they share a secret leadership known as TF Industries or Spytech.


Question: Where does Team Fortress 2 take place?

Team Fortress 2

This organization is related to many technologies that are common to both companies, such as Automatic Turrets and Dispensers [8].


Question: Where does Team Fortress 2 take place?

Team Fortress 2

Common control is also evidenced by the fact that both teams hear the same female voice reading game messages (known as the Administrator, English: The Announcer).


Question: Where does Team Fortress 2 take place?

Team Fortress 2

Gameplay


Question: Where does Team Fortress 2 take place?

Team Fortress 2

The gameplay takes place in separate game territories called game cards.


Question: Where does Team Fortress 2 take place?

Team Fortress 2

Each map belongs to one of several game modes that determine the objectives of the map and the rules for playing it.


Question: Where does Team Fortress 2 take place?

Team Fortress 2

The game is played by two teams that differ in the color of their uniforms — Red and Blue — mercenaries of the two opposing companies.


Question: Where does Team Fortress 2 take place?

Team Fortress 2

Teams are made up of characters that can be live players or bots; characters are chosen from nine classes whose performance characteristics are independent of the team.


Question: Where does Team Fortress 2 take place?

Team Fortress 2

Each class has weapons that allow you to attack opponents from the other team, and non-attacking items designed for different purposes.


Question: Where does Team Fortress 2 take place?

Team Fortress 2

Depending on the game mode, teams can be equivalent, for example, in symmetric point control mode, or not, as, for example, in the Maintenance mode, where the BLU team takes the role the attackers, and the Red team defenders.


Question: Where does Team Fortress 2 take place?

Team Fortress 2

The whole round can be divided into several time stages.


Question: Where does Team Fortress 2 take place?

Team Fortress 2

Time stages are often referred to as modes and should not be confused with game modes.


Question: Where does Team Fortress 2 take place?

Team Fortress 2

Some time stages are optional and only appear in some modes or in certain game situations.


Question: Where does Team Fortress 2 take place?

Team Fortress 2

The only mandatory stage is the game stage.


Question: Where does Team Fortress 2 take place?

Team Fortress 2

The gaming community has created maps that differ in tasks, rules, and characters from those introduced by Valve.


Question: Where does Team Fortress 2 take place?

Team Fortress 2

Game modes


Question: Where does Team Fortress 2 take place?

Team Fortress 2

The game mode determines the tasks of each team on the map and determines the course of the game, division into rounds, and the conditions for winning and losing.


Question: Where does Team Fortress 2 take place?

Team Fortress 2

Only a part of the game modes are present in the game from the very beginning, the rest of the modes are part of global updates.


Question: Where does Team Fortress 2 take place?

Team Fortress 2

Game mode also defines a prefix for the map name, which allows you to quickly find a map of the desired mode.


Question: Where does Team Fortress 2 take place?

Team Fortress 2

Capture the flag


Question: Where does Team Fortress 2 take place?

Team Fortress 2

The Capture The Files (CTF) mode has been present in the game since its release.


Question: Where does Team Fortress 2 take place?

Team Fortress 2

The team's goal is to capture the intelligence diplomat and take him to their base.


Question: Where does Team Fortress 2 take place?

Team Fortress 2

Each team has its own diplomat of the corresponding color.


Question: Where does Team Fortress 2 take place?

Team Fortress 2

The goal of the game for each team is to capture an enemy diplomat and defend their own.


Question: Where does Team Fortress 2 take place?

Team Fortress 2

The team that is the first to capture a certain number of diplomats (usually 3), or to take more suitcases with documents in the allotted time, wins.


Question: Where does Team Fortress 2 take place?

Team Fortress 2

Control Point Capture


Question: Where does Team Fortress 2 take place?

Team Fortress 2

The Control Points (CP) mode has been present in the game since its inception.


Question: Where does Team Fortress 2 take place?

Team Fortress 2

It also has two significantly different sub-modes: English: Symmetric Control Point, in which commands are equivalent and the English: Attack/Defend mode, in where one of the teams attacks and the other defends.


Question: Where does Team Fortress 2 take place?

Team Fortress 2

Symmetrical point control


Question: Where does Team Fortress 2 take place?

Team Fortress 2

In this mode, teams are on an equal footing.


Question: Where does Team Fortress 2 take place?

Team Fortress 2

The goal of each of them is to put all points under its control.


Question: Where does Team Fortress 2 take place?

Team Fortress 2

The maps of this mode are symmetrical and have five dots on them.


Question: Where does Team Fortress 2 take place?

Team Fortress 2

Initially, each team has two points close to its own base, and the center point is neutral.


Question: Where does Team Fortress 2 take place?

Team Fortress 2

All points except the central one are not available for capture.


Question: Where does Team Fortress 2 take place?

Team Fortress 2

As soon as one of the teams manages to take possession of it, the next point of the opponents is unlocked.


Question: Where does Team Fortress 2 take place?

Team Fortress 2

Thus, capturing points, the team moves deep into the enemy's base.


Question: Where does Team Fortress 2 take place?

Team Fortress 2

Capturing the opponent's last point means winning.


Question: Where does Team Fortress 2 take place?

Team Fortress 2

Points captured by one team can be repulsed, so the “heat point” of the game moves around the map until one of the teams manages to establish final superiority.


Question: Where does Team Fortress 2 take place?

Team Fortress 2

If none of the teams manage to capture all the points at the end of the game, the team with the most points wins or a draw is declared.


Question: Where does Team Fortress 2 take place?

Team Fortress 2

Control Point Capture/Defense


Question: Where does Team Fortress 2 take place?

Team Fortress 2

In Capture/Defense mode, teams are not equal — one of the teams is the Attack (English: Offender) and the other is the Defender (English: Defender).


Question: Where does Team Fortress 2 take place?

Team Fortress 2

The map is generally not symmetrical and all points belong to the defending team (it is the “master” of the territory).


Question: Where does Team Fortress 2 take place?

Team Fortress 2

The goal of the attackers is to capture enemy points.


Question: Where does Team Fortress 2 take place?

Team Fortress 2

The victory is credited if they manage to capture all the points within the specified time.


Question: Where does Team Fortress 2 take place?

Team Fortress 2

For capturing each individual point, the team also receives a point and extra time.


Question: Where does Team Fortress 2 take place?

Team Fortress 2

The goal of the defenders is to prevent the opposing team from capturing points.


Question: Where does Team Fortress 2 take place?

Team Fortress 2

Defenders win if they have at least one point under their control at the end of time.


Question: Where does Team Fortress 2 take place?

Team Fortress 2

Unlike Symmetric Point Control, the captured point is blocked here, which means that it can no longer come under the control of defenders.


Question: Where does Team Fortress 2 take place?

Team Fortress 2

If one of the control points is in the process of capturing after the time has elapsed, extra time is activated, which allows attackers to complete the capture and continue the game (so how the additional time for the capture will be credited).


Question: Where does Team Fortress 2 take place?

Team Fortress 2

If the capture is not completed, the game will end in victory for the defenders as soon as the point loses its capture progress.


Question: Where does Team Fortress 2 take place?

Team Fortress 2

On official maps, the Defenders side is always taken by the Red team, and the Attackers are always taken by the BLU team.


Question: Where does Team Fortress 2 take place?

Team Fortress 2

Control of the territory


Question: Where does Team Fortress 2 take place?

Team Fortress 2

English: Territorial control (TC) mode is the most complex map type and has been present in the game since its release.


Question: Where does Team Fortress 2 take place?

Team Fortress 2

This mode, as well as Point Control, is based on control points that are associated with map areas.


Question: Where does Team Fortress 2 take place?

Team Fortress 2

Each round of the game on the Territorial Control map is similar to capturing control points: two points are opened at one point in time, one for each team.


Question: Where does Team Fortress 2 take place?

Team Fortress 2

The goal is to capture the opponents' point and protect your own.


Question: Where does Team Fortress 2 take place?

Team Fortress 2

The team that manages to capture the enemy point captures the territory on which it is located.


Question: Where does Team Fortress 2 take place?

Team Fortress 2

After winning, two other territories are selected between which the game will be played.


Question: Where does Team Fortress 2 take place?

Team Fortress 2

Each team also has one territory, which is the “base”, this territory is the last to be unlocked, and capturing it means winning the entire map.


Question: Where does Team Fortress 2 take place?

Team Fortress 2

Despite the fact that territory control is a well-thought-out and balanced game mode, it is not widely used [9].


Question: Where does Team Fortress 2 take place?

Team Fortress 2

Currently, there is only one card of this mode — Hydro (tc_hydro).


Question: Where does Team Fortress 2 take place?

Team Fortress 2

Accompany


Question: Where does Team Fortress 2 take place?

Team Fortress 2

The Maintenance mode (English: PayLoad, PL) sets players the task of escorting valuable cargo, which is a bomb cart (English: Bomb cart, is a trolley with bomb) placed on the rails of a narrow-gauge railway.


Question: Where does Team Fortress 2 take place?

Team Fortress 2

Similar to Capture/Defense mode, in Escort mode, one of the teams is Offensive and the other is Defender.


Question: Where does Team Fortress 2 take place?

Team Fortress 2

Players on the attacking team must move the bomb cart on the rails to all control points on the map.


Question: Where does Team Fortress 2 take place?

Team Fortress 2

There are a number of control points along the way of the cart, which are captured instantly when the bomb cart reaches them.


Question: Where does Team Fortress 2 take place?

Team Fortress 2

In the event that the attacking team stops attacking, the cart will start rolling back after some time (usually 60 seconds), until the last control point captured, or before its initial position on the tracks.


Question: Where does Team Fortress 2 take place?

Team Fortress 2

The attacking team wins if they manage to ride the cart to the end of their journey within the allotted time, otherwise the defenders win.


Question: Where does Team Fortress 2 take place?

Team Fortress 2

The cart also gives attacking players standing near it 50 metal/ammo every 5 seconds and heals them.


Question: Where does Team Fortress 2 take place?

Team Fortress 2

As a result, the Pyro can continuously fire a flamethrower, and the Heavy can fire his machine gun continuously.


Question: Where does Team Fortress 2 take place?

Team Fortress 2

Since its inception, this mode has become widely popular among players and remains very popular today.


Question: Where does Team Fortress 2 take place?

Team Fortress 2

This mode is represented by three official maps.


Question: Where does Team Fortress 2 take place?

Team Fortress 2

Maintenance mode was introduced in the game with the release of the Gold Rush Update [10].


Question: Where does Team Fortress 2 take place?

Team Fortress 2

The first map of this mode is Gold Rush (pl_goldrush).


Question: Where does Team Fortress 2 take place?

Team Fortress 2

Arena


Question: Where does Team Fortress 2 take place?

Team Fortress 2

Arena (English: Arena) is a special game mode that presents players with slightly different mechanics.


Question: Where does Team Fortress 2 take place?

Team Fortress 2

The main difference between Arena mode and others is that Arena maps cannot be reborn during a round.


Question: Where does Team Fortress 2 take place?

Team Fortress 2

In addition, Arena maps have almost no first aid kits (0-2 first-aid kits for the whole map, which also do not recover until the end of the round).


Question: Where does Team Fortress 2 take place?

Team Fortress 2

There are no resupply boxes on respawns.


Question: Where does Team Fortress 2 take place?

Team Fortress 2

Arena maps are almost completely symmetrical, with a single control point in the center of any map.


Question: Where does Team Fortress 2 take place?

Team Fortress 2

The goal of both teams in this mode is to destroy all opponents, or capture the center point, which becomes available for capture after a certain time (60 seconds).


Question: Where does Team Fortress 2 take place?

Team Fortress 2

Arena mode also has a special mechanism for balancing teams.


Question: Where does Team Fortress 2 take place?

Team Fortress 2

Game servers with Arena mode maps may have a limit on the number of players on a team to make the game even more dynamic and sharp.


Question: Where does Team Fortress 2 take place?

Team Fortress 2

In this case, all players who do not make it to the team are in a special group of spectators waiting to enter the game (English: SitOut).


Question: Where does Team Fortress 2 take place?

Team Fortress 2

The system balances players all the time, dropping off those who die first in the round and introducing players from the waiting group into play.


Question: Where does Team Fortress 2 take place?

Team Fortress 2

Thus, several small teams are formed in the arena.


Question: Where does Team Fortress 2 take place?

Team Fortress 2

You can extend your time in the arena by showing better results.


Question: Where does Team Fortress 2 take place?

Team Fortress 2

Valve, in addition to the new arena maps, has converted several old Symmetric Point Control maps into arenas: the center point is used as the arena point, and the respawns closest to it as spawn rooms players in the arena.


Question: Where does Team Fortress 2 take place?

Team Fortress 2

This is how Granary (arena_granary), Well (arena_well), Badlands (arena_badlands) maps appeared among the arenas.


Question: Where does Team Fortress 2 take place?

Team Fortress 2

Arena mode was introduced with A Heavy Update [11] [12].


Question: Where does Team Fortress 2 take place?

Team Fortress 2

At the moment, this mode is not included in the official rotation.


Question: Where does Team Fortress 2 take place?

Team Fortress 2

Escort race


Question: Where does Team Fortress 2 take place?

Team Fortress 2

English: Payload Race (PLR) [13] is a mode in which, similar to the Escort mode, players are faced with the task of moving the bomb cart to the enemy base.


Question: Where does Team Fortress 2 take place?

Team Fortress 2

However, in this mode, there are two carts and both teams are equivalent — the task of both teams is to escort their own cart to the final point and prevent the enemy cart from advancing.


Question: Where does Team Fortress 2 take place?

Team Fortress 2

Also, unlike the Escort mode, carts do not roll back after a certain time, but continue to stand where they were stopped.


Question: Where does Team Fortress 2 take place?

Team Fortress 2

However, in this mode, there are lifting points on the way of the cart.


Question: Where does Team Fortress 2 take place?

Team Fortress 2

If the cart is thrown in such a place, it immediately rolls back to the level [13].


Question: Where does Team Fortress 2 take place?

Team Fortress 2

Another difference between this mode and Maintenance is the cart handicap — if a team wins the previous round, their cart will be slightly moved forward at the beginning of the round.


Question: Where does Team Fortress 2 take place?

Team Fortress 2

The maps for this mode are Pipeline (plr_pipeline) and Hightower (plr_hightower).


Question: Where does Team Fortress 2 take place?

Team Fortress 2

King of the Hill


Question: Where does Team Fortress 2 take place?

Team Fortress 2

King of the Hill (KoTH) [14] is a mode in which a team must capture a central point and hold it for a certain time.


Question: Where does Team Fortress 2 take place?

Team Fortress 2

Each team has its own timer.


Question: Where does Team Fortress 2 take place?

Team Fortress 2

If a team loses a point, its timer stops.


Question: Where does Team Fortress 2 take place?

Team Fortress 2

After the start of the round, the point is only unlocked after some time.


Question: Where does Team Fortress 2 take place?

Team Fortress 2

When one team's timer goes to zero, it wins.


Question: Where does Team Fortress 2 take place?

Team Fortress 2

If, after the timer of one of the teams is reset to zero, the point is in the state of capture by the other team, then extra time is activated, which allows the attackers to complete the capture and continue the game (since that team's timer will start counting).


Question: Where does Team Fortress 2 take place?

Team Fortress 2

If this command protects the point from being captured before the timer is reset, it wins.


Question: Where does Team Fortress 2 take place?

Team Fortress 2

There are unique maps of this mode (koth_harvest and koth_viaduct), and there are also old ones stylized for it, such as koth_badlands.


Question: Where does Team Fortress 2 take place?

Team Fortress 2

Special delivery


Question: Where does Team Fortress 2 take place?

Team Fortress 2

English: Special Delivery is a game mode that was released on June 27, 2012, along with the new major update Pyromania.


Question: Where does Team Fortress 2 take place?

Team Fortress 2

The team must grab a neutral suitcase with Australia (a fictional very rare and expensive material from the universe of the game) before the opponent.


Question: Where does Team Fortress 2 take place?

Team Fortress 2

As soon as the suitcase is in someone's hands, this team is declared the attacker, their task is to move the suitcase to the other end of the map and perform an action with it (lift it into a rocket).


Question: Where does Team Fortress 2 take place?

Team Fortress 2

If the defenders survive and the voyage fails, the suitcase is moved to the beginning of the level, and both teams get a chance to grab it again.


Question: Where does Team Fortress 2 take place?

Team Fortress 2

As of July 2012, there is only one map for this mode, sd_doomsday.


Question: Where does Team Fortress 2 take place?

Team Fortress 2

In the story, Doomsday reveals the mystery of one of the darkest events of TF2 - Sending the monkey Simp Joe into orbit and his subsequent death.


Question: Where does Team Fortress 2 take place?

Team Fortress 2

Mann vs. Machine


Question: Where does Team Fortress 2 take place?

Team Fortress 2

Mann vs. Machine (shortened to MvM) is a 6-player co-op game introduced after the release of the eponymous global update in August 2012.


Question: Where does Team Fortress 2 take place?

Team Fortress 2

The player is given the opportunity to repel waves of robots so that they do not plant a bomb in a special place near the base.


Question: Where does Team Fortress 2 take place?

Team Fortress 2

Between waves of enemies, you can upgrade your weapons for “credits” (a special currency unique to this mode) [15].


Question: Where does Team Fortress 2 take place?

Team Fortress 2

Also, when purchasing the corresponding ticket from the in-game Mann Co. Store, players have access to the Mann Up mode, which allows players to receive items after completing the mission [16].


Question: Where does Team Fortress 2 take place?

Team Fortress 2

Destroying robots


Question: Where does Team Fortress 2 take place?

Team Fortress 2

Destroying Robots (eng.


Question: Where does Team Fortress 2 take place?

Team Fortress 2

Robot Destroy (rd_) The goal of this mode is to destroy enemy robots and get some elements from them.


Question: Where does Team Fortress 2 take place?

Team Fortress 2

When you receive 15 items, a diplomat appears on the team's base with all the items received by the team.


Question: Where does Team Fortress 2 take place?

Team Fortress 2

When the opponent brings the diplomat to the base, his team will receive all the items collected by the opposing team.


Question: Where does Team Fortress 2 take place?

Team Fortress 2

The team will win if it gets 300 items (server configurable) by destroying robots or taking away elements from the enemy.


Question: Where does Team Fortress 2 take place?

Team Fortress 2

As of February 2016, there is only one official map of this mode — rd_asteroid.


Question: Where does Team Fortress 2 take place?

Team Fortress 2

Give me a pass


Question: Where does Team Fortress 2 take place?

Team Fortress 2

Give me a pass (eng. PASS Time, pass_) This game mode is similar to steeplechase rugby (officially, “This is a combination of the usual bloody crazy TF2 and crazy sports like football, hockey and basketball”).


Question: Where does Team Fortress 2 take place?

Team Fortress 2

The goal of each team is to get the ball into the opponent's goal.


Question: Where does Team Fortress 2 take place?

Team Fortress 2

There are automatic springboards and pickable boosters on maps in this mode.


Question: Where does Team Fortress 2 take place?

Team Fortress 2

If the ball is not scored for a long time, it gains strength, an additional goal opens, which can be hit by jumping on a springboard.


Question: Where does Team Fortress 2 take place?

Team Fortress 2

The maps for this mode are Brickyard (pass_warehouse), Timberlodge (pass_timberlodge), and District (pass_district).


Question: Where does Team Fortress 2 take place?

Team Fortress 2

This mode was beta on August 18, 2015 and released on July 7, 2016.


Question: Where does Team Fortress 2 take place?

Team Fortress 2

Gameplay features


Question: Where does Team Fortress 2 take place?

Team Fortress 2

Crit damage (crit and mini crit) — Each player has a small chance that one of their shots or hits will become critical.


Question: Where does Team Fortress 2 take place?

Team Fortress 2

In this case, the shot deals approximately three times more damage and is accompanied by a characteristic sound, and a green inscription “Critical Hit!!!” appears above the victim's head (Russian: Critical Hit) and the weapon icon that killed the victim are highlighted in red.


Question: Where does Team Fortress 2 take place?

Team Fortress 2

If a critical hit is made from a primary or secondary weapon, it is accompanied by sparks and projectile glow.


Question: Where does Team Fortress 2 take place?

Team Fortress 2

Rapid-fire weapons (machine guns, pistols, flamethrowers) have a short period during which the attack becomes critical.


Question: Where does Team Fortress 2 take place?

Team Fortress 2

Taunts — Each class can use taunts (English: Taunts), special animations of their character, during which the camera changes from first person to third person.


Question: Where does Team Fortress 2 take place?

Team Fortress 2

The type of taunts depends on the player's class and weapon.


Question: Where does Team Fortress 2 take place?

Team Fortress 2

Most of them don't matter, but some can kill enemies instantly.


Question: Where does Team Fortress 2 take place?

Team Fortress 2

Achievement system — achievements are given for the actions performed by the player, which are listed in a special list.


Question: Where does Team Fortress 2 take place?

Team Fortress 2

A special feature of the PC version of the game is class achievements that open access to special weapons.


Question: Where does Team Fortress 2 take place?

Team Fortress 2

Superiority/Revenge — When one player kills another player 3 times in a row without dying from the victim, he gains supremacy (English: Domination) and becomes a villain (English: Nemesis), and the killed becomes a victim.


Question: Where does Team Fortress 2 take place?

Team Fortress 2

At the same time, the message “foo player gains superiority over bar” appears in the list of recent kills.


Question: Where does Team Fortress 2 take place?

Team Fortress 2

If the victim kills his villain, the superiority is removed, and the kill list contains the entry “Bar player enjoys revenge on foo”.


Question: Where does Team Fortress 2 take place?

Team Fortress 2

Revenge gives 1 extra point.


Question: Where does Team Fortress 2 take place?

Team Fortress 2

Player classes


Question: Where does Team Fortress 2 take place?

Team Fortress 2

Team Fortress 2 player classes vary greatly in terms of both playability and appearance.


Question: Where does Team Fortress 2 take place?

Team Fortress 2

There are nine classes in the game.


Question: Where does Team Fortress 2 take place?

Team Fortress 2

Each class has its own unique set of capabilities and characteristics, specialized primary weapons, additional weapons, and melee weapons.


Question: Where does Team Fortress 2 take place?

Team Fortress 2

Although each team may have more than one player playing for the same class, each class character is considered unique and, moreover, has its own biography.


Question: Where does Team Fortress 2 take place?

Team Fortress 2

Player classes are divided into three groups, according to their purpose: attack, defense, and support.


Question: Where does Team Fortress 2 take place?

Team Fortress 2

Each class has its own scope of applicability and is effective both in certain situations and places, and in general with sufficient skill of the player.


Question: Where does Team Fortress 2 take place?

Team Fortress 2

The bundles of individual classes give rise to a large number of tactical decisions that players can use.


Question: Where does Team Fortress 2 take place?

Team Fortress 2

No class individually can establish an unconditional victory over the rest: each class has both a “victim class” and a “villain class”.


Question: Where does Team Fortress 2 take place?

Team Fortress 2

For example, for the Spy, the victims are classes such as Heavy and Sniper, and the villains are Pyro and Scout.


Question: Where does Team Fortress 2 take place?

Team Fortress 2

A team becomes truly effective when all players in it, regardless of class, work together, balancing each other's strengths and weaknesses, which makes Team Fortress 2 a team game.


Question: Where does Team Fortress 2 take place?

Team Fortress 2

Attack


Question: Where does Team Fortress 2 take place?

Team Fortress 2

Attack classes were designed to accomplish the map's game task.


Question: Where does Team Fortress 2 take place?

Team Fortress 2

They are able to capture documents, checkpoints and accompany the cargo in the most effective way.


Question: Where does Team Fortress 2 take place?

Team Fortress 2

Scout (real name Jeremy, English: The Scout, transl. Scout) is an attack class with the highest movement speed in the game and a low amount of health.


Question: Where does Team Fortress 2 take place?

Team Fortress 2

This class captures checkpoints twice as fast as the rest of the classes.


Question: Where does Team Fortress 2 take place?

Team Fortress 2

In Escort mode, the Scout is also twice as effective as other classes in increasing the speed of the cart.


Question: Where does Team Fortress 2 take place?

Team Fortress 2

On CTF-type maps, the Scout can provide a quick start by taking intelligence before the enemy builds up a defense.


Question: Where does Team Fortress 2 take place?

Team Fortress 2

The Scout is the only class capable of making a double jump in which he can change his trajectory in the air.


Question: Where does Team Fortress 2 take place?

The Soldier (also known as Jane Doe, English: The Soldier) is a slow but heavily equipped attacking class armed with one of many rocket launchers, a shotgun, and a sapper shovel.


Question: Where does Team Fortress 2 take place?

Team Fortress 2

Instead of a shotgun, he can choose one of the battle banners with a mountain, which, when activated, gives him and his closest allies certain bonuses, and instead of a sapper shovel, a pickaxe, a katana or a whip that accelerates allies, which, when combined with the aforementioned battle banner, makes it an excellent support class.


Question: Where does Team Fortress 2 take place?

Team Fortress 2

Rocket launcher projectiles are powerful, but have an average speed, so they are effective at accurate hits at medium and close distances.


Question: Where does Team Fortress 2 take place?

Team Fortress 2

Rockets also deal massive damage, allowing you to destroy several enemies.


Question: Where does Team Fortress 2 take place?

Team Fortress 2

This does not apply to a rocket launcher called Direct Hit, which, as the name suggests, shoots fast, powerful, but has a minimal range of impact.


Question: Where does Team Fortress 2 take place?

Team Fortress 2

A soldier is able to perform Rocket jump, a long high jump, by firing a rocket launcher under his feet and jumping at the same time.


Question: Where does Team Fortress 2 take place?

Team Fortress 2

At the same time, a certain number of health points are lost — about one-fourth of full health (if you wear assault boots, the damage from the rocket shot during the jump is reduced by 60%).


Question: Where does Team Fortress 2 take place?

Team Fortress 2

Also, do not forget that if the jump is successful, then, most likely, damage from falling from a height will also be taken.


Question: Where does Team Fortress 2 take place?

Team Fortress 2

It is also possible to shoot at an angle of about 30% to avoid losing health when falling (long jump), resulting in less health being removed.


Question: Where does Team Fortress 2 take place?

Question: Where does Team Fortress 2 take place?

Team Fortress 2

(English: The Pyro, transl. Piro, Pairo) is an attack class armed with a shotgun, a fire ax and a short-range homemade flamethrower with a wide range of damage.


Question: Where does Team Fortress 2 take place?

Team Fortress 2

The flamethrower carries 200 charges without reloading.


Question: Where does Team Fortress 2 take place?

Team Fortress 2

Enemies that are set on fire continue to burn for a while (it depends on how long the Pyro burns them) until they pick up a first aid kit, or are extinguished or cured by the Medic.


Question: Where does Team Fortress 2 take place?

Team Fortress 2

Otherwise, the fire goes out after a while (It depends on how long the Pyro burned the enemy).


Question: Where does Team Fortress 2 take place?

Team Fortress 2

The enemy can burn if they are not assisted by allies.


Question: Where does Team Fortress 2 take place?

Team Fortress 2

The Pyro also has a fireproof suit, so he only takes fire damage during an enemy direct attack (does not burn after it), and additional health.


Question: Where does Team Fortress 2 take place?

Team Fortress 2

At the same time, his speed is high, which allows him to catch up with all classes of his speed and lower speed, including the Spy.


Question: Where does Team Fortress 2 take place?

Team Fortress 2

The Pyro was conceived as a class suitable for ambushes.


Question: Where does Team Fortress 2 take place?

Team Fortress 2

The perfect class for spotting enemy Spies.


Question: Where does Team Fortress 2 take place?

Team Fortress 2

Also, instead of a shotgun, it can equip a rocket launcher familiar to everyone since the first Team Fortress, which sets enemies on fire at a distance where the flamethrower is useless.


Question: Where does Team Fortress 2 take place?

Team Fortress 2

Players are still arguing about the identity and origin of the Pyro.


Question: Where does Team Fortress 2 take place?

Team Fortress 2

In the Meet the Pyro video, it turns out that even in his own team is afraid of him.


Question: Where does Team Fortress 2 take place?

Team Fortress 2

The same video also shows that everything that happens in the game seems to the Pyro to be a fairy-tale world called Pyroland, exactly the opposite of what is happening in the actual the case.

Team Fortress 2

Protecting


Question: Where does Team Fortress 2 take place?

Team Fortress 2

Defense classes are designed to perform defensive tasks and are most suitable for this.


Question: Where does Team Fortress 2 take place?

Team Fortress 2

However, only the Engineer is fully defensive; Demoman and Heavy are also widely used in the attack.


Question: Where does Team Fortress 2 take place?

Team Fortress 2

Demoman (real name Tavish DeGroot, English: The Demoman, Tavish DeGroot, transl. Demoman, Demo.) is a well-equipped class with a speed just below average.


Question: Where does Team Fortress 2 take place?

Team Fortress 2

It is armed with two grenade launchers: the first is four-shot, shoots timer bombs (which explode in 2-3 seconds), the second is eight-shot (Velcro), shoots sticky bombs.


Question: Where does Team Fortress 2 take place?

Team Fortress 2

The Demoman is both an ideal defense class and the most applicable class for destroying enemy defenses.


Question: Where does Team Fortress 2 take place?

Team Fortress 2

However, it does not have a single bullet weapon that shoots in a straight line, which makes the Demoman helpless in certain situations.


Question: Where does Team Fortress 2 take place?

Team Fortress 2

It uses a bottle of scrampy cider (English: Scrumpy) as a melee weapon, which can be used in situations of direct collision with the enemy, where the use of a grenade launcher can inflict Damage to the Demoman himself, too.


Question: Where does Team Fortress 2 take place?

Team Fortress 2

It has the most impressive arsenal of edged weapons, which in total includes about ten swords, axes and even a stick pierced with a nail.


Question: Where does Team Fortress 2 take place?

Team Fortress 2

It also has a significant number of special shields and boots that can replace the Velcro and grenade launcher at the same time, thus leaving it a clean “melee”, yet deadly in melee combat and instantly transforms the long-range into the aforementioned melee.


Question: Where does Team Fortress 2 take place?

Team Fortress 2

The Demoman's most famous weapon is the One-Eyed Highlander, a greatsword inhabited by an evil spirit.


Question: Where does Team Fortress 2 take place?

Team Fortress 2

He pulls a little bit of life from the Demoman, but returns it with multiple returns for each head he cuts down.


Question: Where does Team Fortress 2 take place?

Team Fortress 2

The Demoman is a black Scottish native.


Question: Where does Team Fortress 2 take place?

Question: Where does Team Fortress 2 take place?

Team Fortress 2

Machine gunner (real name Mikhail [20], English: The Heavy, transl. Heavy, Heavy, Heavy, Fat Man) is a heavy class with the highest health level and the lowest movement speed in the game.


Question: Where does Team Fortress 2 take place?

Team Fortress 2

It is armed with a powerful rapid-fire six-barreled machine gun and shotgun, and uses his own fists as a melee weapon.


Question: Where does Team Fortress 2 take place?

Team Fortress 2

The machine gun, the primary weapon of this class, has a number of features.


Question: Where does Team Fortress 2 take place?

Team Fortress 2

First of all, it does not start shooting instantly: it takes a little less than a second to spin up before attacking.


Question: Where does Team Fortress 2 take place?

Team Fortress 2

At the same time, the Heavy's speed drops significantly and he loses the ability to jump.


Question: Where does Team Fortress 2 take place?

Team Fortress 2

If the Heavy sits down with the machine gun spinning, he will not be able to move at all.


Question: Where does Team Fortress 2 take place?

Team Fortress 2

After the attack stops, the machine gun spends about a second to stop, during which time the Heavy still moves slowly and cannot jump.


Question: Where does Team Fortress 2 take place?

Team Fortress 2

The barrels can be spun idle, and the attack will start instantly, but the Heavy will move as slowly as when shooting.


Question: Where does Team Fortress 2 take place?

Team Fortress 2

When paired with the Medic, the Heavy becomes a very formidable opponent; he is also very effective if he is standing next to the Dispenser, who supplies him with ammunition and healing (continuous fire is possible from a machine gun).


Question: Where does Team Fortress 2 take place?

Team Fortress 2

The main danger for a tenacious, but not immortal (and most importantly clumsy) machine gunner is the Spy and the Sniper.


Question: Where does Team Fortress 2 take place?

Team Fortress 2

And if the attacks of the former can still be avoided by looking around more often (but a smart spy will only attack when the Heavy attacks a priority target), a sniper who is also difficult to spot on the far distance, will lay him down with one well-aimed shot.


Question: Where does Team Fortress 2 take place?

Team Fortress 2

The machine gunner comes from the USSR, as evidenced by his Americanized Russian accent and some of the phrases he and other characters say about him.


Question: Where does Team Fortress 2 take place?

Question: Where does Team Fortress 2 take place?

Team Fortress 2

The Engineer can only build one of each type of building (with the exception of Mann vs. Machine, where the Engineer can place two turrets: one normal and one mini turret).


Question: Where does Team Fortress 2 take place?

Team Fortress 2

Each Engineer can build a Sentry Gun (or an unlockable Mini Sentry Gun), Dispenser, Teleport-Entry, Teleport-Exit, which each have three levels of upgrade.


Question: Where does Team Fortress 2 take place?

Team Fortress 2

With each level, the strength (health points) of buildings and their useful characteristics increase.


Question: Where does Team Fortress 2 take place?

Team Fortress 2

To erect, repair and upgrade buildings, the Engineer needs metal — a special resource that can be obtained from a ammo box, weapons for fallen comrades and enemies, a dispenser, and a locker replenishment on the respawn, as well as from the destroyed buildings of the Engineer himself (the metal that fell after the destruction of the building is several times less than the amount required to build it).


Question: Where does Team Fortress 2 take place?

Team Fortress 2

Each Engineer can carry up to 200 pieces of metal.


Question: Where does Team Fortress 2 take place?

Team Fortress 2

Carries a shotgun, pistol, and wrench that the Engineer uses to repair and upgrade buildings, and can also dispose of spies and Demomans who are trying to destroy your buildings.

Support


Question: Where does Team Fortress 2 take place?

Team Fortress 2

Support classes are important both defensively and offensively, and perform private but nevertheless important tasks, be it helping comrades, destroying single strong targets, sabotage in the enemy camp, and others .


Question: Where does Team Fortress 2 take place?

Team Fortress 2

The Medic (born Ludwig, English: The Medic) is a critical support class with the ability to heal teammates and accumulate an ÜberCharge, a special gaming feature that gives the Medic and his patient has super-properties for a short time.


Question: Where does Team Fortress 2 take place?

Team Fortress 2

The Medic's speed and health are slightly above average.


Question: Where does Team Fortress 2 take place?

Team Fortress 2

The Medic is also the only class in the game that regenerates its health without outside interference.


Question: Where does Team Fortress 2 take place?

Team Fortress 2

With the Bloodsucker Syringe Gun modification, the regeneration rate is 1-4 health per second, with the normal syringe gun 3-6, and with the Amputator melee weapon, when picked up, 6-9.


Question: Where does Team Fortress 2 take place?

Team Fortress 2

To treat his patients, the Medic uses a special tool called the Healing Gun.


Question: Where does Team Fortress 2 take place?

Team Fortress 2

It is located in the second weapon slot (that is, it is an additional weapon).


Question: Where does Team Fortress 2 take place?

Team Fortress 2

You can heal players who are a short distance away from the Medic.


Question: Where does Team Fortress 2 take place?

Team Fortress 2

Treatment takes place gradually, while the Medic sees the level of health of his patient.


Question: Where does Team Fortress 2 take place?

Team Fortress 2

Players can call Medic and the character shouts out “MEDIC!” and an icon (voice frame) with the image of a red cross appears above it.


Question: Where does Team Fortress 2 take place?

Team Fortress 2

These icons are visible to the Medic through the walls, so he can come to the rescue in a timely manner.


Question: Where does Team Fortress 2 take place?

Team Fortress 2

The icons also have a special look for the badly injured and for burning comrades, which allows you to provide assistance to those who need it most.


Question: Where does Team Fortress 2 take place?

Team Fortress 2

The medical cannon allows you not only to heal a friend (restore his health), but also give him an additional bonus of health points, equal to half the maximum level for a given class.


Question: Where does Team Fortress 2 take place?

Team Fortress 2

Giving such a bonus is called healing (retreatment, overheal, overtreatment from English: Overheal - a generally accepted name).


Question: Where does Team Fortress 2 take place?

Team Fortress 2

The importance of healing is especially great for classes whose basic health level is high.


Question: Where does Team Fortress 2 take place?

Team Fortress 2

For example, a Soldier with 200 health points, when healed by a Medic, is compared in health to a Heavy who has 300 health points.


Question: Where does Team Fortress 2 take place?

Team Fortress 2

The Healed Heavy has a maximum health of 450 points.


Question: Where does Team Fortress 2 take place?

Team Fortress 2

Team Fortress 2

Upon reaching the 100% mark, the Medic can activate a charge on the selected player.


Question: Where does Team Fortress 2 take place?

Team Fortress 2

The properties it gains depend on the type of Healing Gun.

Team Fortress 2

The Sniper (born Man-Dee, also known as Mandy, English: The Sniper, Mun-Dee, Mr. Mundy) is a support class armed with a long-range and accurate rifle capable of causing heavy damage one shot, but requires aiming and reloading after each shot.


Question: Where does Team Fortress 2 take place?

Team Fortress 2

The longer the Sniper looks through the sight of his rifle, the stronger the shot will be, as indicated by a special aiming scale, the maximum is 100%.


Question: Where does Team Fortress 2 take place?

Team Fortress 2

Shots in the head when shooting through the sight become critical, that is, at the maximum “charge” of the rifle, even the “retreated” Machine Gunner will not resist a shot in the head.


Question: Where does Team Fortress 2 take place?

Team Fortress 2

He also carries a melee submachine gun and a kukri knife for melee combat.

The Spy (English: The Spy, transl. Spy) is a support class with medium speed and low health that can become completely invisible to the enemy (using hours of invisibility, which makes the Spy invisible for 10 seconds), disguise as any of the classes of any team, disable enemy buildings with bugs, and destroy enemies with one stab in the back with your special weapon, the butterfly knife.


Question: Where does Team Fortress 2 take place?

Team Fortress 2

Under the guise of a different class, a Spy can call an enemy Medic and use different voice commands to convince opponents that he is not a spy.


Question: Where does Team Fortress 2 take place?

Team Fortress 2

This class, despite its wide capabilities, is quite difficult to master and requires maximum concentration from the player and understanding of the opponent's logic.


Question: Where does Team Fortress 2 take place?

Team Fortress 2

The Spy prefers clever moves and hidden maneuvers to brute force.


Question: Where does Team Fortress 2 take place?

Team Fortress 2

And also dexterity, which allows you to kill with a stab in the back not only those who do not know about his presence.


Question: Where does Team Fortress 2 take place?

Team Fortress 2

It is also known that the spy is from France.


Question: Where does Team Fortress 2 take place?

Classes that did not make it to the final game


Question: Where does Team Fortress 2 take place?

Team Fortress 2

Previously, Team Fortress 2 Valve planned to introduce a special class - Commander.


Question: Where does Team Fortress 2 take place?

Team Fortress 2

Unlike other players, the Commander saw the battle map in front of him, determined its course, and placed positions for the guns.


Question: Where does Team Fortress 2 take place?

Team Fortress 2

However, it was not possible to implement convenient interaction between the commander and his team.


Question: Where does Team Fortress 2 take place?

Team Fortress 2

Later, the developers abandoned this idea, in particular, due to the difficulties of ensuring the game interest both for the commander himself and for the team he leads.


Question: Where does Team Fortress 2 take place?

Team Fortress 2

Civil (English: Civilian) - Team Fortress Classic had a VIP Escort mode, the purpose of which is to deliver civilian to the checkpoint, but by the release of the final version of the game from this it was decided to abandon the regime.


Question: Where does Team Fortress 2 take place?

The history of creation


Question: Where does Team Fortress 2 take place?

Team Fortress 2

The prototype of Team Fortress was originally a free modification for Quake.


Question: Where does Team Fortress 2 take place?

Team Fortress 2

In 1998, both of its developers, Robin Walker and John Cook, were hired by Valve and the game was transferred to the GoldSource engine [22].


Question: Where does Team Fortress 2 take place?

Team Fortress 2

After the acquisition of Team Fortress Software, Valve began to position the game as an independent product [22].


Question: Where does Team Fortress 2 take place?

Team Fortress 2

Team Fortress 2: Brotherhood of Arms was supposed to be a modern war game: realistic drawing, commanders see the battlefield from above, troops can be dropped on the enemy base, etc. The “commander” class was abandoned almost immediately: what if a bad commander plays with good subordinates?


Question: Where does Team Fortress 2 take place?

Team Fortress 2

A good commander with a bad team?


Question: Where does Team Fortress 2 take place?

Team Fortress 2

The updated design of the game was shown in 1999 at E3, and several new technologies were demonstrated (parametric animation, variable detail models).


Question: Where does Team Fortress 2 take place?

Team Fortress 2

The game has earned several awards, including Best Online Game and Best Action Game [23].


Question: Where does Team Fortress 2 take place?

Team Fortress 2

No release date has been announced.


Question: Where does Team Fortress 2 take place?

Team Fortress 2

With the release of Half-Life 2, they decided to transfer the game to a new engine, which also postponed the deadlines.


Question: Where does Team Fortress 2 take place?

Team Fortress 2

By that time, the game had been in development for six years, Team Fortress 2 was considered the same vaporware as Duke Nukem Forever.


Question: Where does Team Fortress 2 take place?

Team Fortress 2

The second unfinished version of the game was Team Fortress 2: Invasion.


Question: Where does Team Fortress 2 take place?

Team Fortress 2

Some of the code and several models of the game were stolen along with the unfinished version of Half-Life 2 [24].


Question: Where does Team Fortress 2 take place?

Team Fortress 2

Team Gaben is currently restoring this version [25], but due to the fact that only a small part of the game's data was stolen, it is impossible to judge the accuracy of the restored version.


Question: Where does Team Fortress 2 take place?

Team Fortress 2

They decided to remake the game in the style of advertising posters of the early 20th century (the developers mention the works of Joseph Leiendecker).


Question: Where does Team Fortress 2 take place?

Team Fortress 2

The comic style has given multiple benefits: models are easily identified, the realism of weapons can be sacrificed for the sake of playability, and the screenshot immediately shows what game it is from [26].


Question: Where does Team Fortress 2 take place?

Team Fortress 2

In addition, this made it possible to make the particles legible, not clogging the field of view even in large shootouts, and the medic - a class that was previously supposed to hide in secluded places - was pulled out on cutting-edge.


Question: Where does Team Fortress 2 take place?

Team Fortress 2

At the last moment, we got rid of grenades — a hand grenade from the Soldier, a trap from the Scout, a bunch of dynamite from the Demoman... If after that the character's originality disappeared, some of the functions of the grenades were transferred to primary or secondary weapon (this is how the Demoman got the Velcro)


Question: Where does Team Fortress 2 take place?

Team Fortress 2

Shortly before the release, Walker admitted that “Valve made three or four different games before coming to the final design.”

Team Fortress 2

At the same time, the animation of almost all melee weapons has been enhanced


Question: Where does Team Fortress 2 take place?

Team Fortress 2

Even at the development stage, the Civilian Escort mode was abandoned due to its extreme complexity: it is difficult for strangers to coordinate their efforts to prevent a character in a jacket with an umbrella from being shot sniper or stabbed by a spy.


Question: Where does Team Fortress 2 take place?

Team Fortress 2

In the update, the Medic has a replacement for him — the “Trolley Maintenance” mode ().

Team Fortress 2

Accessories (formerly known as hats and miscellaneous items) are items that a player can place in one of three Accessories slots on the gear selection screen.


Question: Where does Team Fortress 2 take place?

Team Fortress 2

Valve added the first nine hats to the game in the Sniper vs. Spy update in May 2009, one hat for each class.


Question: Where does Team Fortress 2 take place?

Team Fortress 2

In subsequent updates, other hats were added, including hats created by the Team Fortress 2 community.


Question: Where does Team Fortress 2 take place?

Team Fortress 2

The idea was a success, and later there were hats in honor of computer games (Alien Swarm, Left 4 Dead 2, Portal 2...), holidays (Christmas, Halloween, Team Fortress birthday), movies [34], books [35], national customs [36], game jargon [37]... In the spring of 2011, Japanese-style hats were sold, the proceeds went to the victims of the earthquake in Japan.


Question: Where does Team Fortress 2 take place?

Team Fortress 2

At the moment, there are more than a thousand accessories in the game.


Question: Where does Team Fortress 2 take place?

Team Fortress 2

However, there were also those who were dissatisfied with the transformation of TF2 into a “hat simulator with shooter elements”.


Question: Where does Team Fortress 2 take place?

Team Fortress 2

The symbol of discontent was the Skillet (English: Demopan), a Demoman in a stupid hat and glasses, with a frying pan in his hand.


Question: Where does Team Fortress 2 take place?
