Team Fortress 2

Gameplay

Team Fortress 2 in play: a group of RED players attack a Blu base map "Well"

Like its predecessors, Team Fortress 2 is focused around two opposing teams competing for a purpose. The team, reliable excavation & demolition (RED) and Builders League United (Blu), is meant to represent two corporations holding between them secretly control every government on the planet. The player can choose to play as one of nine classes in these teams, each with his own unique strengths and weaknesses. Although the ability of a number of classes will become more Team Fortress early phase, the basic elements of each class have remained. The game was released with six official maps, although 13 additional maps and eight arena maps are included in subsequent updates. In addition, a number of community developed maps are released. When players join a level for the first time, a introductory video shows how to complete his goal. During the match, an eternal unsatisfied woman voiced by Ellen McLain announces various Other events in the game loudspeakers. The player limit is 16 on Xbox 360 and PlayStation 3. On the PC, a vanilla server can handle 24 players, but in 2008 valve update Team Fortress 2 to include a server variable that allows up to 32 players. Third party modifications have made it possible to host up to 34 players in a server.

Team Fortress 2 is the multiplayer game first valve to provide detailed statistics for individual players. Among the time spent playing each class, most points earned and the most captures or objectives achieved in a single round. Repeated statistics tell the player how they are improvements in relation to the statistics, as if a player comes close to their record of the damage inflicted in a round. Team Fortress 2 also features numerous "achievements" for carrying out certain activities, such as scoring a certain number of kills or completing a round within a certain period. New sets of class-specific achievements have been added to updates, which add new abilities and weapons to each class once unlocked by the player. It unlockable system has since expanded into a random-chance system, where the player can get things by playing the game. Unlocked achievements and statistics from previously played games are shown on Steam Community the player or Xbox Live profile page.

Game mode

The goal of the game is defined by the game mode in use.

To get the maps flag, the goal for both teams is to get a briefcase of intelligence from the enemy team's base and return it to their own base while preventing the opposing team from doing the same.

Control point modes are more varied in their goals, but share the common goal of capturing a particular point on the map. On some level, the goal for both teams is to secure all the points on the map. In other levels (attack / defend), one team handles all points and must defend them from the other for a set amount of time. A more complex variation (territorial control), introduced the map "Hydro", is based on territory: each team must capture the other team's single active control point in the secure section of the map. When All sections have been obtained by a team, they are then able to attack the other team's base directly. An update on August 13, 2009, Valve with the fourth control point variations: King of the Hill. In this mode, both RED and Blu have to get the center point and defend it for a set amount of time before the opposing team. When a team gains control of the point, their timer starts to count down. If the other team captures the point, Counting down the former team's stopped, and begins the team's final.

Freight map, a team has to work with an escort of a train cart carrying a bomb along a track through a series of checkpoints, eventually detonating the bomb at the base of another team's. The other team has to defend their position and prevent the cart from reaching the end within a set amount of time. To manifest differences of race, both RED and Blu attempt escort a shipment with symmetric (either parallel or opposing) tracks. The freight mode was introduced in April 2008 with the map "Gold Rush"; freight race released in May 2009 ipeline map.

Arena is a team deathmatch mode. Arena maps focus on the smaller environment and no respawning death of a player's character. A team wins in the arena by eliminating all members of the other side of the arena or capturing control the map's central point. Arena is introduced to Updated August 2008.

Classes

There are nine unique player classes in Team Fortress 2, categorized into offense, defense, and support role. class Each has at least three weapons: a unique primary weapon, a secondary weapon like a gun or guns, and a unique melee weapon in keeping characters, such as a bottle of wine for the Demoman, a kukri for the sniper, and a fire ax for Pyro.

The three offensive classes is the Scout, the Soldier, and Pyro. Ang Scout (voiced by Nathan Vetterlein) is portrayed as a fast-talking baseball fan from Boston, Massachusetts, and is a fast, quick character armed with a scattergun and capable of performing double jumps, however, the Scout can not sustain much damage. The soldier (Voiced by Rick) was more durable, but because there are more slow its speed. A stereotypical American military men, the soldiers are armed with a rocket launcher which can be used to rocket jump to higher positions. The final offensive classes are Pyro (voiced by Dennis Bateman). Clad in a fire-retardant suit and a voice-muffling gas mask, carrying a Pyro Flamethrower can set other players in the fire, as well as being able to produce a blast of compressed air that knocks nearby enemies and projectiles away.

Ang Demoman, the Heavy, Engineer and defense make up the class. The Demoman (voiced by Gary Schwartz) is a black, one-eyed Scotsman to drink heavily. Carrying a grenade launcher and a sticky bomb launcher, the Demoman can use its equipment to provide indirect fire onto enemy positions. The Heavy (also voiced by Schwartz) is a stereotypical Russian character, with a great figure and heavy accent, obsessed with his gun at the point of naming them. The Heavy can sustain more damage than any other other class and puts the immense amount of firepower, but was slowed down by both his size and his minigun. The Engineer (voiced by Grant Goodeve) was the last defensive class, portrayed as a relaxed and intellectual "good ol boy '" from Texas. The Engineer is capable of making a number of the structure to support his team: a sentry gun to defend key points, health and ammunition dispenser and a teleporter system.

From left to right: Pyro, Engineer, Spy, Heavy, Sniper, Scout, Soldier, Demoman, Medic

The last category, support, consisting of the medic, The Sniper, and Spy. The medic (voiced by Robin Atkin Downes) was a German physician from Stuttgart with little regard for the Hippocratic Oath, responsible for keeping his teammates life. Those for medicine accordingly armed with a "medigun" to heal teammates, and can make teammates temporarily invulnerable or improve their firepower after medigun is used for a short time. The Sniper (Voiced by John Patrick Lowrie) is a cheerful Australian character rationalises his line of work, equipped with a laser sighted sniper rifle to attack enemies from away and a submachine gun for close combat. The last type of support is the deadpan Spy (voiced by Dennis Bateman), in addition to a revolver, he was equipped the repository of tools, such as a temporary cloaking device, an electronic sapper sa sabotage Engineers' structures, and a device hidden in his cigarette box that gives him the ability to pretend as other players. The Spy can also use his butterfly knife stabbing the enemy back, instantly kills them.

Valve have stressed their focus on game balance considering improvements to the new character classes. Each class has its own strengths and weaknesses leading to dependence on other classes to be excellent. It forces gameplay with more strategic thinking and an increased use of teamwork than is found if a class had superior natural advantages. Each of these classes in three categories have shared strengths and weaknesses, while each individual class also has its own advantages.

Development

Origin

Team Fortress originally started life as a free mod for Quake. Development Team Fortress 2 switched to the engine GoldSrc in 1998 after the development team Team Fortress Softwareonsisting of Robin Walker and John Cookere first contracted and finally outright employed by Valve Corporation. At the point of acquisition Team Fortress Software's production moved up a notch and the game was promoted to a standalone, retail products; tide fans over, work began with a simple port of the game which was released in 1999 as the free Team Fortress Classic. Notably, Team Fortress Classic was built entirely within the publicly available Half-Life Software Development Kit as an example to the community and industry of its flexibility.

Walker and Cook is heavily influenced by their three-month contract stint at Valve, and now they are working full-time in their design, which is undergoing rapid transformation. Team Fortress 2 is to be a modern war game, with a command hierarchy including a commander of bird's-eye view of the battlefield, parachute drops into enemy territory, networked voice communication and many other creatures.

Precocity

visual style of the game's changed drastically over development.

The new design will be announced publicly at E3 1999, where it earned several awards including Best Online Game and Best Action Game. By the time Team Fortress 2 that it has gained a new subtitle, Brotherhood of Arms, and the results of Walker and Cook working at Valve were becoming clear. Many before and during no show exemplary technology, parametric animation seamlessly blended animations for smoother, more life-like movement, and multi-resolution mesh technology Intel reduced dynamic the details of the on-screen elements as they became more distant to improve performance (a technique made obsolete by decreasing memory costs, now game use a technique known as level of detail, which uses more memory but less processing power). No release date was given clearance.

Sa mid2000, Valve announced that development of Team Fortress 2 was delayed for a second time. They attributed the delay in progress of moving to an in-house, proprietary engine that is now known as the Source engine. It was around this time that the news all ran dry and Team Fortress 2 entered six years of quiet development, even in 2003 It was hinted that the Team Fortress 2 May have been set during the period between Half-Life and Half-Life 2. At that time, both Walker and Cook worked on various Valve projectsalker is project led to Half-Life 2: Episode One and Cook became a Steam doubts developeraising Team Fortress 2 is really the active projects that have been repeatedly described.

Final design

The next significant public development occurred in the run up to Half-Life 2's 2004 release: Valve's Director of Marketing Doug Lombardi claimed that the Team Fortress 2 is still in progress and information about it comes after Half-Life 2's release. It does not happen, neither any news released after Lombardi's similar claim during an early interview regarding Half-Life 2: Episode One. Episode Two's release before Gabe Newell again claimed that news on Team Fortress 2 is coming, and Team Fortress 2 was re-unveiled a month later in July 2006 EA Summer Showcase event.

Both team sport of their own art style to help players navigate the levels.

Walker revealed in March 2007 that Valve had quietly built "probably 3:57 different games "before settling on their final design. Since the game's long development cycle is often mentioned alongside Duke Nukem Forever, Another long-anticipated game that saw many years of protracted development and engine changes. The beta release of the game featured six multiplayer maps, which contains three optional commentary by the developers of the game design, level design and character design, and provide additional information on the history behind the development.

Team Fortress 2 does not attempt to be realistic graphical approach used in other Valve Source engine games like Half-Life 2, Day of Defeat: Source and Counter-Strike: Source. Instead, it uses a more stylized, cartoon-like approach "heavily influenced by early 20th century commercial illustrations." The effect is achieved using a special valve in-house rendering and lighting technique making extensive use of Phong shading. The development of the commentary on the game suggests that part of the reason for the cartoonish style was the difficulty in explaining the maps and characters in realistic terms. The removal of an emphasis on realistic setting allows the explanation that sidestepped. The game debuted new Source engine with dynamic lighting, shadowing and soft particle technologies, among many other unannounced features, alongside Half-Life 2: Episode Two. Team Fortress 2 is also the first game to implement the Source engine's new Facial animation 3 features.

The art style for the game is inspired by JC Leyendecker, as well as Dean Cornwell and Norman Rockwell. Their distinctive styles of strong silhouettes and shading to draw attention to specific details were adapted to make the models distinct, with a focus on making the characters' team, class and current weapons easily identifiable. Silhouettes and animation are used to make the class a character evident even in the set, and a color that draws attention to the chest area will focus on selected weapons.

The map design has a strong theme with evil genius archetypical spy wall, concealed in inconspicuous buildings such as industrial warehouses and farms to give plausibility to their close proximities. Keep the base exaggerated super weapons like laser cannons, nuclear warheads, and missile launch facility, taking the role of the goal. Between the bases will have a neutral space. The map has a little visual clutter and described pangkinaugalian, almost impressionistic modeling, to allow the enemy to be spotted more easily. The design strategy also affects impressionistic textures, which is based on the filtered image and improved by hand, giving them a tactile quality and Team Fortress 2 providing its unique look. The base is designed to let players know immediately where they are. RED base color using warm, natural materials and angular shapes, while the base of Blu cool colors to use, industrial orthogonal shapes and materials.

Release and ongoing development

During July 2006 Electronic Arts press conference, Valve revealed that Team Fortress 2 will ship as the multiplayer component of The Orange Box. A conference trailer showcasing all nine showed the class the first time the game's strange new visual style. Valve managing director Gabe Newell said that the company's goal is to create "the best looking and best-playing class-based multiplayer game". A beta release of the entire game is made in steam on 17 September 2007 for customers with pre-purchased The Orange Box, which activated their Black Box coupon, which is included in ATI HD 2900XT graphics cards, and for members of the Valve Cyber Cafe Program. beta continued until the final game's release.

The game was released in October 10, 2007 both as a standalone product through evaporation and retail stores as part of The Orange Box compilation pack, pricing each gaming platform's recommended retail prices. The Orange Box also contains Half-Life 2, Half-Life 2: Episode One, Half-Life 2: Episode Two and Portal. Valve offered The Orange Box at a ten percent discount for pre-purchased it via Steam before October 10, release, as well as the opportunity to participate in the beta test.

Since the release of Team Fortress 2, Valve will continue to be released free updates and patches via Steam. In addition, the game is also being expanded by the fans the tools used valve to create games. Valve has included some of the most popular community-created levels in the official update. The current series sees the class updates having alternate weapons with different abilities, while putting some drawbacks to every unlockable weapons to maintain balance. Those for medicine, Pyro, Heavy, Scout, Sniper, Spy, "no class", "Hallowe'en", Demoman and Soldiers update is completed. Eventually, all classes will be updated. To hasten recovery unlockable weapons and cosmetic hat, a minority of players began using third party program without making the client player's on the server while outdoor games. In response, valve removed any item gained using these programs, and awarded to those who do not use program with a free hat. Valve is also sometimes released new types of games as part of their updates, the latest being King of the Hill, an update released on August 13, 2009. Valve has created a blog to keep players up to date with ongoing developments in Team Fortress 2.

A new update called WAR comes out December 17, 2009 for the Soldiers and Demoman. Based around a supposed war between fighting Soldiers and Demoman classes over new weapons, it included a major overhaul of the inventory system to allow the crafting of weapons and hats. On the day of release it was revealed that the soldiers were killed more Demomen, and the gunboats, the secret item, was given to the soldiers. They are the boots that drastically reduce the damage from rocket jumping and occupy the second slot weapon. This update also introduced a beta version of Team Fortress 2 bots, systems based on AI in Left 4 Dead series and initially only to support the King of the Hill game mode.

Development of new content confirmed for Xbox 360, while development for the PlayStation 3 is considered "vague" by Valve. However, this version PlayStation 3 Team Fortress 2 received an update that repaired some of the issues found within the game, ranging from graphical issues with the online connection problems; This update includes a patch that also repaired the issues found in other games in The Orange Box. The update released on PC and planned for later release on Xbox 360 include new official maps and game modes, as well as tweaks to the class and new weapons can be unlocked through the game's achievement system. The developers attempted to negotiate with Microsoft Xbox 360 developers to keep the Xbox 360 release of this update free, but Microsoft refused and Valve announced that they will release bundles of some updated together to justify the price.

Marketing

The Scout talks about himself in his entry on "Meet the Team" series.

To promote the game, Valve has released a video advertisement ongoing series entitled "Meet the Team". Constructed using the game engine and slightly more detailed character models, the series consists of short videos on individual characters, showing their personalities and tactics. The video is usually mixed with clips of the characters in fighting games. The first installment, "Meet the Heavy", was released as part of the game's first advertising and depicted a May 2007 interview the gun-obsessed Russian. "Meet the Soldier" was released in August 2007, showing Soldiers providing a misinformed lecture on a Sun Tzu collection of severed heads. The Engineer will be covered during the game's public beta testing in September 2007, providing a calm discussion about his gun by Vanguard a truck filled with stolen enemy intelligence, while the gun to kill enemies attempting to attack him as he played a guitar through a small campfire. Ang Demoman is the first class to be covered after the official game's release in October 2007, conducting interviews in which he bemoans the fact that he is a "Black Scottish cyclops", noting that as such he was quite rare. Before the release of the new medic class in April 2008, "Meet the Scout "was released, which struggles with the enemy Scout Strong for having a sandwich while he brags about how amazing he thinks he is. In June 2008, "Meet the Sniper" was released to promote the major update for the Pyro class. In the video, the sniper talks about his life as a professional murderer and argues with his father on the phone in his choice of career. By Heavy updated in August 2008, another video was released, this time for more 'Sandvich' a health-regenerating Heavy's arsenal, featuring a Heavy battle with a soldier and a Scout to get a sandwich a cooler from the perspective of the refrigerator. The next video, "Meet the Spy", was leaked onto YouTube January 2009, at the time of marketing for updates on both Sniper and Spy classes, and rotating the invasion of the base of Blu RED Team by Spy. In developing the blog for Team Fortress 2, Robin Walker later joked that the leak is intentional. Valve is also held on Saturday and Sunday free to play for Team Fortress 2.

The "Meet the Team" video is based on the audition by the actor scripts used for voice actors for each of the classes, the "Meet the Heavy" script is almost word-for-word copy of Heavy on the script. More recent videos, such as "Meet the Sniper", contain more original material. The video has been used by the valve to help improve the technology for games, specifically the improvement of facial animations, as well as a source of new gameplay elements, such as Heavy's "Sandvich" or "Jarate" the sniper's.

Upon release, Team Fortress 2 received universal critical acclaim, with a total score of 92 percent both Metacritic and GameRankings. Many reviewers praised the cartoon graphic approach and the resulting light-hearted gameplay, and the use of unique personalities and appearances impressed classes for a number of critics, with PC Gamer UK stating that "until now multiplayer games that just do not have it." Similarly, the game mode is accepted as well, setting GamePro described as focusing "on just plain fun", while some reviewers praised valve for the map "Hydro" and his attempts to create a game mode with different on each map. Further praise was made at the level of game design, game balance and teamwork all together in promotion. Team Fortress 2 has received several awards individually for its multiplayer gameplay and its graphical style, as well as having received A number of "Game of the year" awards as part of The Orange Box.

Even Team Fortress 2 was well received, Team Fortress 2's removal class-specific grenades, a feature of previous Team Fortress form, is controversial among the reviewers. IGN expressed some frustration with it, while conversely PC Gamer UK stated "Grenades have been removed entirely thanks to God." Some more criticism came in a variety of issues, such as lack of extra content such as bots (although Valve has since added an update bots), the problem of players finding their way around the map because of the lack of a minimap, and some mild criticism of the medic class too passive and repetitive in its nature. Those for medicine class has since been re-tooled by valve, giving him a new unlockable weapons and abilities.
