Team Fortress Classic Hints

How do I get out of the enemy basement?

  • 1 of 7: There is only ONE way out of the enemy basement.  That is to take the semi-spiral ramp up.
  • 2 of 7: This is important since an enemy will probably be waiting for you at the top.
  • 3 of 7: Either out-run 'em or out-gun 'em.
  • 4 of 7: If you are a weaker class, make a run for it.  You can open fire and just keep running.  Expect grenades and heavy firepower to be going off even before you turn the final corner.
  • 5 of 7: If you are a bit heavier (and probably slower), inch around the corner and unleash first and then try to escape.
  • 6 of 7: Sometimes you might want to wait until an enemy gets bored waiting for you to come up.  He will either give up his command post at the top of the ramp or he will come down to investigate.  You will have to make the choice to out-run him or out-gun him down in the basement this time.
  • 7 of 7: Or, if your team is really good together, reinforcements could or should already be on the way.  If not, send a call out for some teammates to help you get out.
