Tips for TF2 newcomer

[Legodude77]

I just bought TF2 a day ago and I did the tutorials and stuff, but I kind of want to know what to do and what not to do.

shoot the people who are a diffrent color from you

It's actually secretly a hat collecting game with an FPS minigame

And how do I get items that I can use to craft? Don't you have to pick up item drops or something?

eventually you'll get items you can get rid of for metal

Use Axestinguisher, not Fire Axe as Pyro. It is a billion times better.

I just started. You expect me to have most of the items already?

One item is not most items :p

But when you do get it, use it.

No, but when you do get it, use it. Pyro has little to no need for a generic melee.

When you get the Axtinguisher, use it, if you get the Degreaser, i highly advise you use that in combination with the Axtinguisher because the Degeaser makes you quick switch (look in the advanced options for this) faster

You can craft two weapons to make a scrap metal, it takes three scrap metal to make a reclaimed metal, it takes three reclaimed metal to make a refined metal, refined is the highest level of crafting metal

two weapons? I thought it was three. Well, I know that part of crafting. What are some gameplay tips for different classes?

[Wynd_Fox]

As a Pyro, ambush people.

[rockslide26]

Get pyros to light arrows on fire

Use the huntsman, it's fun :D

Soldiers are the cheapest class and require no skill

Use Southern Hospitality or Tribalman's shiv to deal with a spy

I use the Powerjack. It saps health and has no downsides.
