Only got about 18% to download, should be ready to play soon. What is the max number of people you can have on the server btw? I doubt we will be anywhere near filling it but it is interesting to know.
Also, what is a good newbie class? Or does it depend on what role I want to play?
I think the OcUK one is 24, which is standard. But some can go up to 33.
In terms of classes, I suppose you could choose any really, here's a quick rundown:
Scouts - can run quickly, and capture points faster than other classes
Solider - Powerful rocket launcher, and can use it to 'rocket jump'
Pyro - Burn people, and they lose health for as long as they're on fire
Medic - heal teammates to fill charge, once filled, you can 'uber' and become invincible for a few seconds
Heavy - Very slow, but lots of health. Minigun takes a while to warmup
Engineer - build sentry to attack enemies, teleports, and dispensers to provide team with health ammo and metal
Sniper - as it says on the tin
Demo man - use grenades and sticky bombs
Spy - disguise as the enemy and stab them for an instant kill
In terms of best for newbies, I'd say to try one of the more generic classes - scout, soldier or sniper.
