Team Fortress Classic Hints

Enemy snipers pick me off before I even make it halfway across the bridge!

  • 1 of 6: 2 Fortresses tends to be a level with quite a few snipers.  Or, at least they have a decent shot on anyone who tries to cross get from base to base out in the open.
  • 2 of 6: First, try strafing and jumping to disrupt their shot.
  • 3 of 6: If that doesn't work, try taking the water.  There are passages to water access in both bases.  On the first level of the base, you will find a spiral staircase.  Take it down to the water.
  • 4 of 6: You can take the water without ever exposing yourself to the sniper fire.
  • 5 of 6: This is ideal for spies as well, since no one has to see you until you get inside the enemy base.
  • 6 of 6: If the snipers are just decimating your team, become a spy yourself and get into the other base.  Stab some snipers in the back and they might cool off a bit.
