Engi in a 2fort instant respawn server, i already knew how to play engi and in 2fort so that's what i do and all that i play in pretty much i go in black mesa every so often and egypt.
first class i played was scout on a arena server and got murdered by a heavy and i didnt even shoot back but then i played spy thinking id own with the revolver and i failed at that too
Hm...I think it was an engineer on Goldrush. I was lucky enough to join a server with nice people who answered my questions about how to play the game.
Demoman on 2fort. My brother had bought the orange box for HL2 and Portal, he tried TF2 but hated it. He didn't know how to change class, and said he "got stuck with this stupid guy that shot bombs," so me, being the smart ass decided to prove to him it couldn't be that hard. I loved every minute of proving him wrong. 100+ hours of demo later, I still haven't gotten fed up, although I do change classes alot more now. I was so smug, that was the day I knew I was a gamer. (That 2fort server was eGOs normal spawn server , I couldnt find it again, until I found my history. I came back, and well, here I am just under 1 year later.)
I first played heavy on 2fort, but i was at my buddies house who said how awesome tf2 was. I got owned every life because i couldnt kill people! I still play 2fort, and still play heavy, but its not my main class, nor is it my main class.
Heavy; I remember I pre-ordered and it installed on day of release (I think it was a wednesday). But my machine didn't have enough ram to connect to a server, so I had to upgrade it to 1GB. I clicked on heavy, was on 2fort and thought oooh, pretty! Then when I upgraded my graphics card I saw even more beautiful lighting.
