Can anyone tell me how to chat on Team fortress?

Question

What symbol or etc do you have to type before typing in what you want to say, or shortcut keys to say 'I need a medic' etc....?

Answer 1

hmm, from years ago when I played the original team fortress classic as a patch for half life. Anyway I think you need to press "u" or "y" one of them chats to everyone and the other just to your team. Good luck. btw, try the spy, its great fun infiltrating the enemy and then stabbing them in the back!!
