1. 17
2. Male
3. About a year.
4. My friends and I have TF2 parties every now and then. About two or three people come over and we play a rousing game of Egypt or something.
5. Not really. The only thing I can think of are the weapon names.
6. People who think they are really good but end up sucking and bad healers.
7. As I have stated above, bad healers and egotistical idiots.
8. By far my favorite is the Heavy. My least is probably the Medic or Spy only because they have least play time.
9. I am alike with the Heavy in the sense that I love a good sandvich, I love taking aggro, and I like to pretend I am Russian. I am like the Spy because I can sneak up on people and I am like the Medic because I always like to give a helping hand.
10. Fav mode is CP Hydro. Least favorite is 2-fort CTF.
11. Some tactics I use in game to win are sweet flanking, jumping and revving the minigun, and rocking hard with a healer who knows what he is doing.

 

[Regiment]

1. What is your age?
21.
2. what is your gender?
Male.
3. How long have you been playing TF2?
2 months.
4. As a player, what are some of the ways you interact with fellow TF2 players?
I don't have voice chat (nobody on PS3 does) so I try to work together by gesture and by supporting my teammates.
5. Is there certain "lingo" that is appropriate for game play?
Probably- again, nobody on PS3 has voice chat. As long as it's understandable and not too slangy, it's fine.
6. What are some of the "pet peeves" you possess when playing this game?
Spawn-camping and cheating. You want to kill me, fine, but stop spawn-camping me and stay out of my spawn room.
7. Are there certain people whom make you angry, an example would be a "noob"?
Spawn-campers, people who play redundant classes. Yes, our sniper is doing a nice job, but he doesn't need seven other snipers helping him!
8. What is your favorite character to play and what is your least favorite character to be?
Favorite- Spy, least favorite- Demoman. I love being able to disrupt the other team and then vanish into the bowels of their fort while they run around in circles shooting the walls, while I find the Demoman fiddly and annoying, and I can't stand not having a straight- firing weapon.
9. How are you alike with your favorite and least favorite character?
Like the Spy, I'm cautious and have a very dry sense of humor, and as for Demoman: well, I'm not alcoholic, black, one-eyed, or Scottish... Honestly, this one's a stretch for me. I don't think I'm altogether too much like the Spy.
10. What is your favorite mode and least favorite, an example would be Prophunt, or Capture the flag?
Favorite- CTF, least favorite- Attack/ Defend while defending.
11. What are some tactics you use in the game to win?
I like to disrupt the other team. I don't go for the intelligence; I tend to find a Sniper or Engineer and keep pestering him until he gets really paranoid, and then I go after someone new. I leave the defense and aggressive pushes to my teammates. I try to remain unseen and try not to be predictable.

1. 15
2. Male
3. 3 Years
4. Microphone communication; usually in the form of leadership.
5. Is there certain "lingo" that is appropriate for game play? I only tend to use abbreviations like cap for capture point, sg for sentry gun, etc.

7. People that get lucky in a way to cause the game to feel unfair to me.
8. Spy is my favourite; Heavy my least.

10. Favourite would be Payload; least favourite would be CTF.
11. As a Spy, cloaking and disguising as a Scout near an enemy Engineer, then using voice commands; can work effectively to make them leave the security of their sentry nest for those few seconds that you need to sap everything/kill the engineer.

 

[Contun]

1. 14.
2. Male.
3. Since it's release.
4. Mainly mic chat.
5. Work with your team and do your job; if a situation calls for you to change classes, do it.
6. Not really... it's pretty well balanced.
7. Force of Nature scouts can be a pain, but I usually dispatch them before they can do too much harm....
8. Favorite class is the sniper. I wouldn't say I have a least favorite class; just like certain classes more than others...
9. If I were in a real combat situation I'd want to be as far away from the danger as possible, like the sniper.
10. Team Deathmatch/CTF
11. If my team is advancing I tend to pick off important targets (like heavys and other snipers) and provide cover for teammates that may need my support.

If the enemy are advancing on us I'll switch to a defensive class like the engineer and set up sentrys at points of interest. I may also go medic if there are Heavys, Soldiers, or Pyros who could use so healing.
