Promotional images
Part of the advertising for Team Fortress 2 included the use of promotional images, many of which were derived from pre-release iterations of the game, thus reflecting differences such as the roofless bridge version of 2Fort. These images often reflect outdated and older designs of characters, maps, and weapons, as well as gameplay concepts.
The images from the pre-release version of the current iteration of Team Fortress 2 were usually sourced from in-game screenshots or screen captures taken from Trailer 2 and Meet the Heavy. Because of how prominent many of these images were, they are still used on some websites when referencing the game. For example, the Steam TF2 stats page still uses the original group photo, as seen to the upper-right, to represent the game.
