Main menu
From TF2 Wiki
The Main menu is the first screen the player is presented with upon opening the game. After a brief loading period in which one of two background images will appear, the interactive portion of the menu will appear along with 1 of 4 random tracks from the soundtrack.
The menu itself is divided into six sub-menus in three sections:
Contents |
Character Info and Setup (formerly 'Player Stats')
This section features two tabs: Loadout and Stats
This loadout tab allows the player to modify the weapon loadout of each individual class to suit his individual play style by replacing the default weapons with any unlockable weapons the player may have earned. The player uses this tab to modify his loadout either before or during a game. The loadout screen provides detailed information of the effects and abilities of each weapon. It also shows the "Level" of each weapon, though the significance of this, if any, is yet unknown.
The stats tab shows the player the detailed player statistics gathered by the game, with Your Performance Report and Your Best Moments' tables showing your own personal records and total playtime. These can be sorted by class, playtime, points etc.
Beneath the stats tables is a small Tip section which can be toggled on or off.
Achievements
This menu allows the player to see their number of achievements obtained, their percentage of completion, and their individual progress in each achievement.
Options
This menu allows the player to change their keyboard, mouse, audio, video, voice and general multiplayer settings. The settings the player chooses will be automatically saved and loaded next time the player starts up the game.
Find Servers
This menu allows the player to see matches that are currently being played with seperate tabs for Custom servers which have special features, servers the player has added to their favorites, servers which allow spectators, servers on which the player has recently played, servers hosted on a nearby LAN network and servers on which the player's steam friends are currently playing.
Create Server
This menu allows the player to create and host their own server, with options for the max number of players, map rotation and other settings.
Developer Commentary
This menu allows the player to enter empty versions of the official maps. These contain speech bubbles which provide voice commentary from the designers detailing the game's development.
Quit
This menu gives the player the option to close Team Fortress 2.
