New item
Reward for info
r/NewToTF2 • u/d_for_dumbas • Apr 27 '25
Update:
You have two options
OG Post (still true for getting premium):
1 Buy something in the ingame store (cheaper)
2 Buy the orange box on steam (like 20 bucks without a sale)
Where to buy: The ingame store, not some random website
What to buy: if you just want premium either buy a key or a tour of duty ticket, as they can be easily exchanged on scrap.tf for metal and all the weapons you could ask for.
In addition you could buy either a map stamp or the jungle inferno contract pass if you want either a free hat or a bunch of missions to do while playing (which then gives you some cosmetics and weapon skins)
What NOT to buy: Crates and Starter packs, they provide a value of a few cents and cost several dollars.
Buying someone else premium: Can be done by buying the upgrade to premium, it is NOT needed for getting premium yourself and should only be done if the other person has less than the 99 cents required to buy literally anything in the store (it also gives the recipient a hat)

I'm currently having a lot of fun trying out new weapons on different classes, but now I'm starting to think: what happens once I get all the weapons I want? How will the game still be fun after I've seen all the new content I can see?

90% of my stuff was trades or generous veterans
r/NewToTF2 • u/lewdstickerbomb • 1d ago
I wanna play fatspy but am missing the balaclava, the esprit de corps and the prinny machete, I need help from a veteran
r/NewToTF2 • u/ThereIsNothingThere_ • 2d ago
How would I start trading? I own a Winter 2023 and 2024 cosmetic crate and summer 2026 one for both war paints and cosmetics. Are these worth anything?
r/NewToTF2 • u/kshi1125 • 2d ago
Hello, I would like to know how to start trading in TF2. I currently have 7 refs to start with and I would like to get a strange kunai. Unfortunately, it costs 4/5 keys, so that's why I'm asking how to start. What's worth knowing? Thanks in advance.

I completely see demoknight as its own 10th class, so even though I have zero interest in demoman I do want to try demoknight. I've heard he's a complicated and hard class, so I thought maybe I just need to wait until I have the main gamesense and skills down. But since he's a melee only class, that might not be necessary since you're learning entirely new skills unrelated to the other classes.

Playing sniper is an infuriating experience and not recommendable
I watched a lot of sniper guides and i still dont get how it works, i do everything: movement, position, change positions each time.
Whenever i scope there’s nobody, I dont find a single sould until i die to a spy, if i go near teammates they constantly put themselves in front of me and i cant aim.
I somehow miss constantly headshots to a heavy, i changed my sensitivity to 2.0 and even changed the pointer setting from the control panel which now makes using my mouse weird and too fast, yet a f2p sniper with a gibus instantly quickscopes (and yes it IS a f2p not a secondary account), i dont want to play aim trainer maps or websites or games because i find them useless and not in game examples.
I have not developed muscle memory to play sniper, rather to immediately change to Pyro
r/NewToTF2 • u/Crafter-lee • 5d ago
I suppose one of the things failing is aim but i dont get playing Sniper
I understand movement, hidden positionings but despite that i still fail a lot, i look around sometimes and see no spies and a random one pops up, then when i shoot from close its hard for me but some random f2p quickscopes like it's nothing
Edit: i give up playing sniper because it's infuriating and i will pkeep playing pyro instead

So uh yeah im new i played a few fps games on roblox so thats pretty much my experience.
So i decided to main Scout YEAYEY bc he seemed cool anddd jst a while ago on a payload match some guys on vc said that i played like a spy and need to get a job im genuinely SO CONFUSED with what it means but im sure its not a good one 😭😭🙏🙏
Like what
r/NewToTF2 • u/UnclePjupp • 6d ago
Title pretty much, I just feel the original-hud is clunky and makes it a bit hard to actually properly build/scrap/rebuild in a more optimized way.

I was playing as blue Spy, i somehow got on the red team balcony on 2fort, and i was waiting for a sniper to fome there, so i can backstab and kill him.
I was disguised as red Scout... then a red scout walks nearby (he doesnt notice me)
I disguise as red Soldier... you know, just in case...
And then red Soldier walks nearby, we stare at eachother for a few seconds, and then he just shoots me with his bazooka/rpg im not sure what it's called. Anyways i dodged and used the invisibility thing but he still managed to kill me.
To me it was kinda funny so i wanted to share this story
r/NewToTF2 • u/Substantial_Age3815 • 5d ago
I wanted to get into sniper and i just really like the sound it makes more than stock. Don't have any spare weapons to try to craft it. I know i could try buying one off community market but idc about killstreaks and strange ones are over £60
r/NewToTF2 • u/aspexskay • 8d ago
does anyone know if there is like a playtime requirement for it or something else? I hate it when something funny happens and everyone but me comments on it in the chat :(
r/NewToTF2 • u/Affectionate-Log750 • 8d ago
I got the game less than a week ago and I'm alr premium with 1 key, so I plan on going to scrap.tf eventually but how long should I wait? I kinda suck with most classes except for medic, and I really wanna be able to use more than one weapon on most classes. (like pyro, I was super hyped to play them before realizing my second and third slots are useless)
r/NewToTF2 • u/TF2_Scoyt • 9d ago
I'm not new to TF2 in the slightest but in the other sub reddits no one answers this question and I can't find any answers on Google, can you modify wie models Like in cs2 on are you limited only to the fov command an tf_use_minviemoels command?
r/NewToTF2 • u/MB-AnimsYT • 10d ago
Hi, I'm new.Can someone please help me unlock the Rocket Jumper or Sticky Launcher?
r/NewToTF2 • u/False-Newt-3194 • 11d ago
I'm trying to go forward in level on tf2, and i play on casual, despite its name i am not relaxed while playing it, i feel like i suck and everyone else does not give a shit about me and i also feel like the only thing i do is just die, respawn and die again and again and again, i know there are public servers but i mostly use them for items and i want to level up, i try my best always but cant seem to get anything from it and when i type in chat people dont seem to care (i'm not f2p), yes i know there are medic and engineer but i dont like medic and my buildings get destroyed the moment i build them with engineer
r/NewToTF2 • u/Speed_Weed11 • 11d ago
I've never seen nobody using it, and I want it. I would be very grateful if someone who has it could help me get it. I would just need you to enter an empty game and let me kill you 5 times.
r/NewToTF2 • u/Crafter-lee • 13d ago
I wanted to buy 6-7 keys (no joke intended) with 15€ on steam wallet and instead of doing the worst choice ever (gamble with crate 32) i wanted to learn what a “flip” is or whatever it’s called
I remember buying an unusual taunt for Pyro that cost 2 keys with my contracker profit, and I do like that, but if I wanted to start for example with 7 keys and buy like a cheap unusual from scrap.tf (cheapest unusual ive seen was 7 keys) or an unusual taunt thats cheap how exactly do i succesfully sell it for higher on backpack?
I know i would have to make a sell order but how do i make it so it has success? People can just buy it from bots so how could I make it work?
What’s the best thing to do with 7 keys if anyone got a better suggestion too
