How To Play Heavy Tutorial Video
Elvis! recommended another great tutorial video. It’s produced by RandomEngy, and is in a similar style to the great How To Play Spy and How To Play Pyro videos made by Daedalus.
A lot of people think the heavy weapons guy is a basic class with no tricks to know. While he is often simpler to play than other classes, there is more to the heavy than just dumb charging while firing your big gun. There are still a lot of tactics that people on public servers miss which this tutorial goes over.
Yes, there is more to it than charge + fire your big gun + pray for an ubercharge.
Theres also some nice footage of a heavy owning an entire enemy team while maniacally laughing and yelling at them. Seriously, the heavy has the funniest lines Team Fortress 2.

Nice, but your crosshair looks alot smaller than mine….

What Xyzia said. My main gripe as a newbie is that the heavy gun has a rather wide spread as indicated by the big crosshairs.

What about using the shotgun and the hands? When is it a good idea to use them?

The only thing you forgot to mention is picking up weapons and scrap metal for ammo. And yes, I know I’m hardly an authority, but it should be in there.
