I just finished Portal in the Orange Box, and I really want to try Team Fortress 2 soon. But, being inexperienced, I'd most likely be torn to ribbons in the first five seconds of a game with other players.
So, my question is: Is it possible to have private matches between myself and another single person of my choice? Or am I just going to have to learn how to duck?

It is possible, but one of you has to own a server, and that costs money.
D:
It would be possible if you had the Xbox or PS3 version.

I think he has the X-Box version. He mentioned the Orange Box, but I could be wrong.

You could probably find a "Newbies Only Server" somewhere. Or you could invite a friend to an empty server, and hope nobody else shows up. Or, you could click the create server button, fill out the stuff, and play by yourself (it doesn't actually set up a server I believe.)

Playing alone is boring... And I actually didn't do too bad for my first few tries. I did the best as Soldier and Pyro, but those pretty much ARE the starting classes.

I play my brothers-on the XBawx- and I found out it's a pretty easy game to get the hang of. But it takes a bit longer to play good as Spy.

dude, I've never played before. maybe sometime the two of us can go to an empty server and duke it out. >_>
I'm kinda afraid of playing at the moment due to lag, but...eh.

When I was on, there was nearly no lag. That may just be my connection, though.

well, portal lagged for me, and also had some random crashes caused by my antivirus program. and by that, I mean the existence of my antivirus program, even if it was not running, would occasionally cause it to crash. >_>
eh, whatever. wanna give it a shot sometime? I have a couple of hours tonight. >_>

I'd be good right now.
Say... we can add each other as Friends on the Steam thing and I'm sure we can somehow make a private fight between us.
We can add each other as Friends with just our e-mail accounts, so I'll give you mine and I'll steal yours from your Account. ADMIN POWERS GO!
