How did you get into TF2?

[Humility The Humble]

How did you start playing TF2? When?

As for me:
I started playing TF2 right before the F2P update came out ( Medic Update, I believe ). I've been hosting MW2 mods for around a year by then and stumbled upon a TF2 mod; I didn't really know what it was about, being a CoD player and all. One day, I found a Steam Hack 50+ games and downloaded it. It worked and I saw TF2 on the list. I slowly got into it and when TF2 went F2P, I unistalled the hack and got TF2 legit.

I'd been on sort of a valve binge for awhile- I'd played HL2 and Left4Dead a lot and then back in 2010 my kid brother let me try tf2 on his steam account. I was instantly hooked.

About 4 years ago on a cruddy laptop. I had started on the eGO 2Fort back then, and I enjoyed the game a lot. I took a break from it because it couldn't run TF2 anymore and when I build my new computer, I got hooked back onto it because of awesome people two years ago.

I got into tf2 by watching videos on youtube. Then I was wondering if i should hack it, or just buy the game normally, when I was saving up money tf2 became free2play and then I bought it immediately. I made my account around Late February 2011... it was the best birthday/ decision ive ever made

I started when I got my laptop back in 2011 and the first thing I got was the orange box I finished portal and wasn't interested in HL2, although I played them later, so I started the training on TF2 I liked the art style and thought training was fun I then played my first game on badlands arena the day the hatless update came out and had no clue what a hat was

2 years ago I was wathing a minecraft livestream of EditZP aka Zekkyou. He was then began playing TF2 and I decided to watch the meet the class videos. I made an old account and set out to dominate him. Mission was complete so I decided to play on a custom server where I got a virus and lost that steam account. A year later (last year) I made this account and a few days later I came onto the eGO servers again (aparently on my old account I was on them) I joined.

Bought tf2 back in 2007, When twas brand new, no fancy airblasting or wranglers, or even kritzkrieg. Back in my day, we had to just use whatever weapon the class came with, no fancy equipping, and no hats.

Also, hyrdo was cool back then, as was trying to breach the enemy breach as demo.

I got into TF2 from a friend. And I started playing TF2 a few years.. Yes years.. Ago but it was on a different account

Late '09

Well, I had been interested in TF2 since the day it released, I finally managed to scrape up enough money (I was like 12 or so) and I bout it around '08 (judging by my years on steam, the orange box was my first game.) I think the first eGO server I started playing on was dustbowl, and I joined on my 13th birthday, I've been here ever since. (Although I do like to take sporadic breaks.)

 

[Nix]

I emerged on the internet in '08, but I never bothered to go explore the net until '11. After a while I saw a couple friends of mine played TF2 and I gave it a try.

I loved it.

 

[Wubstep]

was part of a portal 2 community, they told me to dl tf2, and then they brought me to 24/7 blaclmesa

 

[Ezekiel]

Played TFC back in the day, and then when TF2 came out I bought the orange box about a week later, found eGO's Convoy server, and here I am still.

 

[Wize]

Batlbot, and others brought me to this certain map to try the game... Can't remember it. I was recruited by Darth on it!

Meep Showed me the game when she got the orange box so i tried it out on her account and was addicted then i got my own account when it was free to play!

 

[Ghost901]

Friend of mine recommended tf2, and the 24/7 blackmesa server about 3 and half years ago.

 

[IrateDonnie]

I got The Orange Box for the 360 right after it came out. I tried TF2 & hated it, but then the great xbox live outage during the 07 holiday season made all of my multiplayer game lag like crazy (thanks COD4 MW) & TF2 was the only game I could play online so I gave it another shot. I realized it was actually a really fun game so I stuck with it. Then Valve decided to start the class updates, so by the time the Heavy update launched I had a pc that could run it. It wasn't very long after that when I found the old Warpath server (R.I.P.) & decided to stick around.

 

[Bryan]

Started in 2008ish when my friend gifted me the game.

Joined a clan that later disbanded ultimately ending up with me searching for a new one. That clan exploded into about ten different new clans and I chose to follow one of the smaller ones. We had a good run there, but that too disbanded. One member was displaying an =(e)= tag and suddenly I was interested in joining eGO.

 

[AndyGuy]

i got it about a month after it became free to play, i had first heard about it from the eGO forums when i was still part of the old Strat division

 

[Fistacles]

I played TFC starting in 2004, then when i heard rumors of TF2 coming out, i was excited. grabbed the orange box 2 weeks after it released. i took a break from it from like 2009-2010 but got back and started playing it some more. Sad theres no concjumping in Tf2 (except for the mods)
