The '''Heavy''' is a towering hulk of a man that hails from the USSR. He is the largest and possibly most dangerous class in ''Team Fortress 2''. Boasting the most default [[health]] and devastating firepower from his trusty [[Minigun]], the Heavy is no pushover. The Heavy's Minigun can inflict heavy damage at a high rate of fire, allowing him to mow down opposing babies, cowards and teeny-men in seconds. The Heavy's movement [[speed]] is his main weakness. Revving up or firing his Minigun brings his already unimpressive speed down to a snail's pace, making him a very easy target for [[Sniper]]s and [[Spies]]. His slow speed makes him more dependent on support from [[Medic]]s and [[Engineers]] to keep him in the fight. Aside from decimating entire teams, the Heavy is able to provide further support for his comrades with an oft-required health boost via his [[Sandvich]], which, when consumed, is capable of healing him to full health. It can also be dropped to provide an instant 50% health boost to his teammates. However, if he isn't careful, an enemy may pick up the dropped Sandvich for a health boost of their own.

The Heavy Weapons Guy, more commonly known as the Heavy, is a towering hulk of a man that hails from the USSR. He is the largest and possibly most dangerous class in Team Fortress 2. Boasting the most default health and devastating firepower from his trusty Minigun, the Heavy is no pushover. The Heavy's Minigun can inflict heavy damage at a high rate of fire, allowing him to mow down opposing babies, cowards and teeny-men in seconds. The Heavy's movement speed is his main weakness. Revving up or firing his Minigun brings his already unimpressive speed down to a snail's pace, making him a very easy target for Snipers and Spies. His slow speed makes him more dependent on support from Medics and Engineers to keep him in the fight. Aside from decimating entire teams, the Heavy is able to provide further support for his comrades with an oft-required health boost via his Sandvich, which, when consumed, is capable of healing him to full health. It can also be dropped to provide an instant 50% health boost to his teammates. However, if he isn't careful, an enemy may pick up the dropped Sandvich for a health boost of their own.

The Heavy is the face of Team Fortress 2. He appears prominently on box-art and promotional materials, starred in the very first Meet the Team video, and has appeared in all further videos to date.

The Heavy is voiced by Gary Schwartz.

  • Hold MOUSE2 to keep your Minigun spinning, ready for approaching enemies.
  • You're a great Medic buddy. Keep a clear line of sight to your Medic to keep the Medigun on you.
  • Hit E to call for a Medic if you get hurt. Nearby Medics will be notified of your need.
  • Your Minigun chews up a lot of ammo. Pick up fallen weapons to refill your supply.

Bugs

  • Sometimes when the Heavy dies while firing the Minigun, a glitch appears after the respawn that shows a muzzle flash and the sound of shooting while the gun itself is unrevved.
  • Depleting all of the ammo of any Minigun by lightly tapping the primary fire while keeping it spun-up with secondary fire allows the Heavy to appear to be firing indefinitely despite having no ammunition. Sounds will play and a muzzle flash is visible, but no damage will be dealt.
  • A Heavy with any melee weapon as his active weapon can continue to attack while stunned, albeit with invisible animations.
  • If a Heavy spins up his primary and taunts while keeping the secondary fire held down, the barrel will not spin. This can be fixed by firing or discontinuing to spin the barrel.
