Valve's Team Fortress was the working title for the class-based multiplayer game Team Fortress 2 in 1998, before the release of Team Fortress Classic, until the title switched to Team Fortress 2: Brotherhood of Arms.

Overview

The game was planned to be realistic class-based first-person shooter with large battlefields, vehicles, and real-time strategy elements.
