As the poll states, I'm trying to get a feel for which class Giant Bomb prefers, whether you play the 360 or PC version of the beloved shooter. Poll it up, folks!
P.S. If you want to give a little explanation as to your preferred class, I wouldn't be opposed to it.
Team Fortress 2
Game » consists of 12 releases. Released Oct 10, 2007
The long-awaited sequel to the class-based first-person shooter Team Fortress Classic sports a unique cartoony visual style, more accessible gameplay, and a very large amount of updates and new features since its original release.
Which class do you play as?
Pc version
I change depending on what my team needs at the moment, but if I have my choice, I play as the Spy. There seems to be a lack of competent Spy players on the console, and I've definitely got some decent tactics as the Spy.
I'll usually fill in what class is needed most, unless it's a scout, which I can't get the hang of, but my favourite two are Sniper and Medic.
Spy or Sniper (The update was good for me :) ) and a little bit of Heavy, I hate anyone who plays Pyro though, considering it's the easiest class to play in the game. I'm hear to start a flame was (Oh the puns) So yeah, Pyro is the easiest class to play and is the noobiest class. In order to be successful you spam your flamethrower and run away. You only die if it's someone out of reach such as a sniper. You yourself can't get lit on fire and you have a flaregun for dealing with those pesky snipers too >_>. Pyro's need to be nerfed (Flamethrower overheating anyone?)
Someone prove me wrong.

I play as the spy mostly, though I must admit I have to keep my microphone unpluged from my pc due to the insane language and racial slurs that I emit while playing the class. But even when its frustrating, its still worth dying 2 - 3 times for that perfect kill, especially when it helps your team like when you down a heavy, heavy + medic combo, or an engineer and all of his stuff.
When I get too frustrated though I usually switch to the pyro ( no matter how noobish some people in this forum think ) because there's nothing sweeter than burning a few spies yourself. >:)
I just cannot understand how the demoman works. Granted I've only played with him for like 2 hours but his weapons seem too hard to use, the only thing I can manage to do with any regularity is blow up idiots who run around a corner into my stickies. I just cannot use him in a straight fight
I've loved playing as the Heavy since the beta launched. There's nothing better than grabbing one of your roommates to play a dedicated medic for you and being able to scream at them through the door.

I started as Medic and I think I am going stick with it. I love the assist system, makes it very rewarding to heal up dudes and be a good Medic.
I started as a Pyro but now I play as a Medic mostly, dude is surprisingly effective at killing stuff if you arc your shot right.

I normally change depending on situation, but i pick Spy if our team doesn't have one, or if the other Spy is bad.
Practically half my kills with the spy are with the revolver, after using that so much I can't really get used to the Ambassador.
oh i and like to play as the Heavy.
Actually my least played class is the Soldier >.< , and because of my extreme dislike of pyros, i dont play them much either
Depends.
Favorite/Most played Offensive class: Pyro
Favorite/Most played Defensive/Support class: Medic
Least favorite/least played Offensive class: Scout
Least favorite/least played Defensive/support class: Demoman
Here's my list of all classes from favorite to least favorite.
- Pyro
- Medic
- Heavy
- Soldier
- Spy
- Sniper
- Scout
- Engineer
- Demoman
I really like playing Demoman on defense; otherwise I play whatever I feel like at the moment, or whatever class would be best to get revenge on my nemesis...
