ДЄccording to a 1999 interview on Boot Disk, the game's campaign was originally going to be a cross between singleplayer and multiplayer.Д¬ampaigns are a series of maps where outcomes and objectives you have completed in the first of subsequent maps may affect the situation in later maps. The game kept the same ideas and concepts shown in the 1998 preview but with the plans of new maps that held unique objectives, adding addition weapons like the Smoke and Spider Grenades, reintroducing the Pyro class, and adding new classes like the Ranger, Machine Gunner (which replaced the Medium Infantry class), and the Instructor.

Field Medic can heal players by looking at them for just a second or two. The Light Infantry is the Scout class with the only difference being able to use light machine guns. The Sniper can go completely invisible for twenty seconds if he learns the 'Fatal Breeze' ability, making it much more frustrating than ever before. Rocket Infantry is the Soldier class but with a jetpack instead of being able to rocket jump.

The Engineer keeps his original buildings from before but gains a regular camera, a security camera, and a drill motor. The original classes have also gained a few unique abilities. Another uniquely different class was the 'Medium Infantry', which was a temporary class used by the Engineer and Sniper. It's the only class in the game that has this ability. The Commander has the ability to see the entire battlefield and the Engineer's cameras, issue commands, establish objectives, and monitor the player's stats. The game would've featured a unique class called the 'Commander'. This game was later renamed to 'Team Fortress 2: Brotherhood of Arms' in 1999 alongside with more features being introduced.Д«rotherhood of Arms (1999) / Valve's Team Fortress (1998) The Pyro class was also removed for unspecified reasons.
