Class Differences Between Fortress Forever and Team Fortress 2
| Team Fortress 2 | Fortress Forever | Class Differences | |
|---|---|---|---|
| Class | Health | Health | |
| 125 | 75 | In Fortress Forever, unlike in Team Fortress 2, Scouts are able to build jump-pads and cause Spies to de-Cloak on contact. | |
| 200 | 100 | There are few if any notable differences between the Team Fortress 2 Soldier and the Fortress Forever Soldier. | |
| 175 | 100 | The Fortress Forever Pyro is able to perform a Pyro Jump, a skill similar to the Soldier's Rocket Jump | |
| 175 | 90 | The Demoman in Fortress Forever is able to lay a devastating timed explosive, unlike the Team Fortress 2 Demoman. | |
| 300 | 100 | In Fortress Forever, the Heavy is able to Overpressure, a skill which allows him to release a shockwave that stops all nearby enemies. | |
| 125 | 80 | The Engineer's Dispensers in Fortress Forever are the main difference from the Team Fortress 2 Engineer in that they can be used by enemy players and in that they can be detonated as explosives that do damage to the enemy. | |
| 150 | 90 | The two major differences between the Fortress Forever Medic and the Team Fortress 2 Medic are the fact that the Fortress Forever Medic is able to infect enemy players and that they can drop medkits for frendly players. | |
| 125 | 90 | The Fortress Forever Sniper is able to "tag" enemy players that he has shot, but not killed. This allows for friendly players to see certain enemies through walls temporarily. | |
| 125 | 90 | The main differences between the two types of Spies are that the Fortress Forever Spy takes 50% fall damage and automatically has their disguise removed when they come into contact with an enemy Scout or Spy, while the Team Fortress 2 Spy does not. | |
| 50 | 75 | The only difference other than health is that the Fortress Forever civilian has an umbrella that the player can use as a weapon. |
