what is TF2?
tf2 is a game by the company valve. It started off as a mod for the source engine game half life and eventually became its own game all together called team fortress.
once valve saw the true potential of this game they updated the source engine and then made team fortress two! (tf2 for short) like team fortress classic its a shooter with two teams fighting for an objective but unlike other shooters its not only team death match it about corporate espionage.

the back story
a rich British man called zephanayer mann owner of mann and sons co. is tricked by his sons REDmond and BLUtarck to buy some land in america and earn more money! discovering that the land he bought (dustbowls and gravel pits) are worthless he dies due to a diseases. leaving his sons an equal amount of land each. Blutarch and Redmond both hire nine mercenaries each to fight the other one and claim the land for themselves. fast forward from (whenever) to 1967 blutarch and Redmond are getting old so the both hire another nine mercenaries to fight for them:the pyro,the engineer,the spy,the heavy,the sniper,scout,soldier,demoman and the medic once again hiring the same people. aided by some life extending machines that run on australium a rare object only found in Australia which turned australians into great strong people. eventually Redmond and Blutarch realise that they have nobody left to take their place and end up inventing a machine to make one of them pregnant (eeew) but soon greyman comes into the scene and murders them both. abducted by eagles at birth greyman is smarter but weaker than both of them so armed with an army of robots which run on money he tries to take over their lands now owned by the mercenaries who fend off the lands from robots and each other. that is the whole story behind tf2 and the expansion MvM, MANN Vs Machine
