What means 'Team Fortress'?

That is maybe one of the questions u will ask yourself now... Now we can answer you with these FAQ (or at least try..) Team Fortress (called in the future only TF) is a Mod or TC (TotalConversion) for Quake1. You will all know Quake1 or the sequels surely, if not then look at ID software past. Thus like said TF is a TC for Quake1, whereby TC is for TotalConversion. A TotalConversion means all of Quake1 was changed. Like the weapons, the characters, the levels, the GamePlay, and more, have changed. That is easily the beautiful part of Quake1 and the sequels... everyone can take an idea and change Quake to a totally new style (only AirQuake and QuakeRally, airplanes and auto instead of the play figures!) TF is one these TotalConversions... and sense shows here lots was changed. One of the most important features in TF is now you can chose between 9 different characters, instead of only one type of status character to have like in the normal Quake. The cool thing is now everyone of these characters has its own weapons and abilities. Also each chracter has different pros and cons. Like the Engineer can build a gun that kills all enemies that go near it. The only chracter that the gun DIDN'T NOTICE to destroy is a spy. But read the Class info in the "assertion of the characters " section of the FAQ... The different chraqcters are not everything in TF... Among other things the GamePlay has changed... it now has a GOAL in the play! Not like the stupid plot in Quake where it is simply to kill everything in an area that moves. Thus at the start of each TF game you must be put on a team. Here you should notice with TF (like the name already says) a large value is put on TeamPlay. You should notice your colour which is your teams color thereby not shooting the same color. Thus in the team fighting are dramaticly different than Quake. Hmm for now how do you fight on the team? with most TF maps there is a flag or something similar. And both teams or in all teams as on some maps more than 2 teams are possible (up to 4) it is good to know the flag area of your team as well as possible to defend and the flag of the opponent to Capture. For everyone Flag capture all members of your team get 10 " Frags ". For shooting opponents you get 1 " frag " or more e.g. on HuntedPresident. That's about it. if you want to know more read the games FAQ or E-Mail us.
