nice, ill take a look at that site later :)
i found i liked PYRO and HEAVY the best, after that the sniper and soldier are my next best... i want to know how to take full advantage of the spy though :p

EDIT: what does the snipers... err.... 'granade' do :) (glass pot)

The sniper has a Jar he uses for "jarate", when used on enemies this will allow miniature critical hits from any member of your team on whomever it splashes for a time of about 7 seconds, also you can use it on your own team mates (a bit of friendly fire!) to put them out if they are ablaze.

As far as the spy goes, unless you have picked up the "cloak and dagger" watch - that allow unlimited time invisible and regenerates as you stand still, your best bet for using the spy is to learn where the ammunition respawn points are. A good map to start off with the spy is 'fastlane' as it is open and allows multiple routes with many backstabbing opportunities.

People have different stategies with the spy, I stick with the standard watch and generally disguise myself as either the enemy pyro or enemy spy and use the cloak sporadically to get to the very other end of the map - what would be the other teams base, when safe I uncloak, and take note of any engineers and who is protecting them, also watch out for pyros, they are a spys worst enemy and end up in death almost always. Keep moving, you can always cloak and double back to the begginning to keep up the act, then just work your way from their base backstabbing as many as you can until you meet your teams frontline. Repeat this process over and over and your sure to be topping that leaderboard, priorities for a spy would be engineer buildings - specifically teleporters. If you wait for an engi to go and repair his sentry, then is the time to strike, when he's hitting it with his wrench go and backstab him, making sure to sap his sentry first and then the rest of his stuff - this can be really helpful in getting your team line to advance without the neccessity of an ubercharge. Another big and easy target is the snipers, I see a lot of spies who don't attack snipers because they wear a razorback that protects their back specifically from spies, when I see this I take out my revolver at a 3 - 4 metre distance and most of the time 3 shots is enough to put them down, just watch out for the kukri blade as it will kill you in one. Other than that, keep backstabbing and cloaking, easily the most fun you can have with any class on the game - taking out heavy medic combos just as they reach ubercharge is immensely satisfying

I'll be playing. Not sure whether to play TF2 for longer or play TF2 and watch FlashForward :p
 
Only was able to play for an hour or so but saw some very good and clean games. I slowed down playing this after every server I hit I got lumped with hackers/bots and spawn point campers so was a nice refreshing change
 
just wondering, how do you unlock stuff for classes? I was playing as a demo man and unlocked a new pyro weapon. How do i unlock more stuff for other classes?
 
Game is about to begin. I'm gonna head on in a sec.

You get random "drops" just for playing the game. This includes weapons for all classes and hats.

Or you could try to get achievements for the class you are playing. After you hit a certain milestone you will get the first unlock. There are 3 milestones per class.
 
More good games tonight :)

I don't remember names, did you get in?

For future reference take the IP in the announcement, open steam, servers and then the favorites tab. Right click anywhere and paste IP, add to favs, join.

Or open the console in TF2 and type connect IP

I'll add this info to the announcement from now on.
