For those of you with great reflexes, play the scout or the pyro.
For those of you who want firepower, play the heavy or the soldier.
For those of you who like to play support classes, play the medic or engineer.
For those of you who like to be sneaky, play the spy.
For those of you who have a combination of reflexes and patience, play the demoman.
For those of you who don't like to be in the thick of things, play the sniper.
TF2 Free Weekend Tips - For classes
Engineer has some abilities that aren't intuitive, fyi. My first time i had some teammates giving me tips once i let them know I was an engie virgin.
Personally, I switch between my fave classes
1. As needed by the team
2. As I feel like it. The different classes, and thus different play styles, keep the game fresh(er).

"Be bold, and mighty forces will come to your aid."
I switch a lot based on mood, map, and team as well. I think demoman is my least favorite, but I know it's a popular class, so don't go by my opinion on that one.
Engineer would be good as your job isn't really combat, but to support and defend (via the turret you build). People on your team will love you as long as you build them teleporters so they can get to battle faster.
Sniper is good as you're in the rear guard and zoomed in. The action there is click the mouse to shoot.
The spy wouldn't be horrible, but the learning curve is probably too high the first time you play.
The medic is decent as you're not really worried about fighting, but rather healing. Your job is to find a heavy, pyro, soldier, etc. and stay behind them while healing them constantly. Good for folks who aren't good with reflexes, but want to stay up front.

Last night's game were great. The FNF server was loaded with regulars which meant good players filled both teams. The server was like that until around 2 when things started dying down. Hopefully, the trend will continue tonight.
