New people need to post here. ITT we have people comparing epeen size about how many old games they played or old systems they used to have. There's also a tiny discussion about what class you first played the first time you played TF2 Wink.

TF2 was my firts multiplayer shooter ever, i always played MMOs before that, but never a FPS. That was mainly caused by my crappy internet connection when i had ping around 120ms. I was amazed by the concept and grafics of TF2, so i wanted to have even if i coudnt play it properly, i would still have HL2 and Portal if it would be really bad.

And so i started as engie, because that was the only way how i could help my team somehow with my ping. Thats also the reason why is engie still my number one in steam stats (hours played).

After some time we changed our internet provider and so my connection changed from crappy to moody (sometimes 100ms, sometimes 40ms). The game was actually playable sometimes, so i was trying to play with other classes (Melee Island days). My worst 3 classes were scout, heavy and sniper. After some time i was really pissed of by that connection that i coudnt play the game when i wanted so i took a brake for few months.

And again we changed provider (to current one) and at last it was perfect. My favorite was down so i was browsing through a lot of pub servers, this was the time when i started my sniper and spy (agter ammo recharging cloak update) practicing.

Then i followed Torgue and Ringel here and you probably know the rest of the story. Smiley

As i already said, i like versatile style of playing, cant say that i have a primary class, im trying to be good with all classes rather than be perfect with one of them. I always decide a class to play with according to current map, always have 2 or 3 favorite classes for each map or even for each stage of a map. The only class that is still left behind on my list is a heavy.

Tf2 is the first multiplayer online game I've played, (bought the orange box just for peggle extreme) and to be fair I'd quicksaved and god mode ever other fps I've played. I tried tf2 and I found your server after a couple of weeks of playing  and rarely play elsewhere.

I played every class randomly, but tend to play medic or engie when needed. Think I stuck with these as they are easier to get points with and are usefull to team.
As I'm getting better I've started to enjoy the other classes a bit more, soldier and pyro mainly. Useless with spy and you lot are too aware/quick for me to play sniper, (though I sometime Play it on pubs to pretend I'm not cack at it)

it's been fun trying different classes as ive improved, it's a bit of a weird journey and I suppose alot different from coming to tf2 skilled from another game. But learning stuff like rocket jumping and then using it sucessfull (ocasionally) is why I've put more hours into tf2 than any other game.
