{{Infobox manual/Header}} ==General== * There are grenades usable for every class. There are two: a [[Grenade:Frag|frag grenade]] for every class (except the Scout) and a “special” one that has a unique trait ([[Grenade:Nail|like shooting nails]] or [[Grenade:EMP|blowing up an enemy’s ammunition]].). * Base run speed for all classes is higher * Respawn is instantaneous. * Realistic art style compared to TF2’s cartoony style. * Each class has [[armor]], and the amount of it and the percent of damage absorbed depends on the class. See the [[Reference:Classes|Class Reference]] for details. * No taunt button. * If a player dies, a backpack is left behind that contains all the ammo he had when he died. * Resupply rooms consist of backpacks containing supplies, instead of supply lockers. In addition, these backpacks must respawn. What’s in the backpacks is determined by the map maker. * Ammo boxes are replaced with backpacks. * You can discard unused ammo for others to use. * There are four teams; Red, Blue, Green and Yellow. However, most maps use only Red and Blue. * Much less emphasis on Capture Point maps than in TF2. * A lot more maps to choose from. ==Weapons== * There are two types of shotguns: [[Weapon:Single_Shotgun|Single]] and [[Weapon:Super_Shotgun|Super]]. * The [[Weapon:Grenade_Launcher|Grenade]] and [[Weapon:Pipe Launcher|Pipe Launcher]] share a magazine. * Grenades fired from the Pipe Launcher do not stick onto walls. * Only the Medic, Spy and Engineer have their own melee weapons. Everybody else has a [[Weapon:Crowbar|Crowbar]]. * Every class except the [[Class:Civilian|Civilian]] and [[Class:Scout|Scout]] can grenade jump over a distance. ==Classes== '''[[Class:Scout|Scout]]''' * The FF Scout is much more movement based, with much less firepower. The double jump TF2 skill is replaced by a much more powerful [[Grenade:Concussion|concussion grenade]] and buildable jump pad ability. * A Scout can remove a Spy’s disguise or disable a [[Weapon:Detpack|Detpack]] if he touches them. * The Scout can [[Concjumping|concjump]]. * He can build a [[:Category:Buildables#Jump_Pad|Jump Pad]] that can give anybody an extra speed boost. '''[[Class:Sniper|Sniper]]''' * The [[Weapon:Sniper_Rifle|Sniper Rifle]] must be charged up by holding down the fire button. * He has an [[Weapon:Auto_Rifle|automatic rifle]] that uses the same ammunition as the Sniper Rifle. * The sniper 'tags' enemies he hits, so all his teammates can see the enemy through walls. '''[[Class:Soldier|Soldier]]''' * The FF rocket launcher travels significantly faster than TF2 * You can fire a lot more rockets faster in FF than TF2 * The FF soldier is able to bounce his opponents around a lot more than TF2 - the FF [[Weapon:RPG|RPG]] has serious stopping power '''[[Class:Demoman|Demoman]]''' * [[Weapon:Pipe_Launcher|Pipebombs]] are not sticky (they bounce until they come to rest), which means they can be placed from a lot further away, bounced around corners, and used as a long range deathmatching weapon. * [[Weapon:Grenade_Launcher|Blue grenades]] detonate a lot faster than in TF2 - they are used as more of a close range combat weapon rather than a long range weapon * Has a special weapon called a [[Weapon:Detpack|Detpack]] that can be set to explode after a certain amount of time and is the most powerful weapon in the game. * He's not scottish or black. He has a eye patch though, :D. '''[[Class:Medic|Medic]]''' * The medic in FF is more a combat medic, specialising in movement, recon and firepower - rather than focusing strictly on healing. He can be a formidable force on his own, and does not require so much protection from his teammates. * No ubercharge * To heal, use the Medic's healing weapon, the [[Weapon:Medikit|Medikit]]. It must be used on an ally at point-blank range. However, it will heal the target to 100% of his health instantly. * Can also throw medkits by pressing alternate fire * If you use the [[Weapon:Medikit|Medikit]] on a person with 100% of his health, it will add 5 points of health for each use, up to a maximum of 150% of his default maximum health. * The Medikit can [[:Category:Status_Effects#Infected|infect enemies with a virus]] if it is used on one. * The Medic can [[Concjumping|concjump]]. * Can be very effective on offense, thanks to [[Concjumping|concjumping]], his speed and the [[Weapon:Super_Shotgun|Super Shotgun]]. * The Medic cannot make anyone invincible. '''[[Class:HWGuy|HWGuy]]''' * No serious changes. '''[[Class:Pyro|Pyro]]''' * Has a rocket launcher called the [[IC|Incendiary Cannon]] that can light enemies on fire. However, the rocket begins to fall to the ground after launch, traveling in an arc. * Instead of simply 'being on fire', enemies can be burn level 1, 2 or 3, depending on how many different flame weapons you hit them with. See the [[:Category:Status_Effects#On_Fire|On Fire]] article for more details. * The [[Weapon:Flamethrower|Flamethrower]] can be used as a jetpack. Face down, jump and hold down the fire button. If you keep it down for too long, you'll start to head back to the ground. '''[[Class:Spy|Spy]]''' * Has a [[Weapon:Tranquilizer Gun|tranquilizer gun]] instead of a revolver. This slows the enemy, blurs his vision, and makes him a nice easy backstab target! * If a Spy makes a successful backstab, [[Class_Ability:ID_Theft|his disguise changes to the person he just killed]]. * Instead of simply destroying enemy sentry guns, he can hack them into attacking their own team. * The Spy [[Class_Ability:Stealth|makes no noise when walking]]. * The weapon the Spy has equipped is reflected on his disguise. E.g.: If a spy is disguised as an Engineer and is holding the knife, to others, he will be holding the Wrench. * If the Spy is disguised, he will look like his disguise, including to his teammates. However there is a sign above his head to indicate he is on your team. * If the Spy falls down, he will make no noise and takes 50% damage from the fall when you crouch. * The Spy’s special abilities are done via a menu accessed by hitting the Fire 2 (default: Mouse 2) key. * Spies can reveal other spies disguises by touching them. * Cloaking never runs out. (there is a small recharge time before recloaking again) * Enemy Sentry Guns will fire at a cloaked spy regardless of disguise. * Sabotaging a buildable is a bit different. When you sabatoge a building, you need to first "Activate" it. For a dispenser, it simply blows up. For a Sentry Gun (SG), it makes a distinct sound, and starts firing at whatever the team the engineer that built the SG is on. It also stops firing at your own team, and after a little while, it blows up. '''[[Class:Engineer|Engineer]]''' * Upgrading SGs only takes 1 whack with the wrench, and only 130 metal. * The sentry can be aimed in any direction once built (including up / down) by hitting Fire 2 (default: Mouse 2). * You cannot make teleporters. * Metal is collected from backpacks. * An Engineer can repair a teammate’s armor by hitting the ally with the [[Weapon:Spanner|wrench]]. * You do not get alerted when a spy has stealth-hacked your SG, only when they activate the hack. * Sentries will being to make sonar sounds when a Spy is near it. The closer a Spy is, the louder the sound will be. * When an engineer discards ammo, he will throw out ammo of every type, even if he doesn’t currently have a certain type. * The Pistol is replaced with the [[Weapon:Railgun|Railgun]], which can charged up. If charged for 3.333 seconds, the Engineer will receive 40 metal. * The [[Sentry Gun]] uses shells and rockets from the Engineer as ammo. If your SG runs out of ammo, whack it to restock it. * Destroying, dismantling, building and aiming are all available as options on the right click (alternate fire) menu. * The [[Dispenser]] gives armor and ammo, but not health. * Dispensers can absorb ammo from backpacks. '''[[Class:Civilian|Civilian]]''' * VIP class with little health and no firepower. {{Infobox manual/Footer}} {{Rating|4}}
