First let youself know that what are the requirements for game before you jump in:-
1.7 GHz processor,
512 MB RAM,
DirectX 8 video card,
Internet connection
Recommended:
3.0 GHz processor,

Happy! Now we come to the original part that what exactly we need (the software part) to run the game successfully.
First of all this game is built only for multiplayer purpose. This means ie you can create your own server or you can join some of cracked servers (only cracked servers if you haven't purchased the game legaly). Their are currenty two cracked pakistani servers.
1. Micronet 3Gsqr Team Fortress 2 Server
1. GET THE GAME
Download it from any torrent but the game version must match the version of the server so you can join MBL. If it isn't then you have to download patches to upgrade it to the specific version.The current version of TF2 required for MBL server is 1.0.8.2
The Patches can be obtained from the following link.
