Valve Preparing Biggest Team Fortress 2 Update Ever

[Cowabungaa]

side note the demo man weapons look awesome.

They almost look a little too awesome. Melee-ing as a Demoman used to be just for the lulz, now they're making it pretty damn powerful by the looks of it. Shame there isn't a sword to go with that outfit though.

As for the Sniper, damn, that rifle looks like an awesome challenge to use properly. A year or so back I would've drooled over it, now it just frightens me. It's like an S&M tool for pro snipers.

Scrapyard Wednesday tomorrow.

I'M CALLING IT!

With these alliterations they've been doing (Mobster Monday & Timbuk Tuesday), I'm thinking a World War Wednesday- Soldier and Medic being the features (USA vs. Germany and all that)

I am still going for something related to scrap Wednesday.
Featuring..
Junkyard soldier pack
Tesla Engineer

That is my guess.

Oh goody! A nice excuse to start playing even more TF2 . Sorry SC2 and Reach, some things are more important.

 

[Clockwork Scarecrow.]

I lost interest in TF2 some time ago, but maybe I'll give it a visit now.

You should add in there that there's more Polycount packs coming for classes over the days, today they released two for Demo and Sniper.

TF2 isn't far off being an MMO with all the collectibles and huge updates constantly.

I rather loved just the vanilla original game.

 

[Fayathon]

the uk ones pretty empty most of the time too.

I noticed that yesterday when I checked, but it's not like it matters, my ping on that server floats around 180, so I'm not gonna play there anyways...

Shame too.

Three actully, if you look at the Demo shields in the update page: http://www.teamfortress.com/uberupdate/
you will notice an empty BONK can, click on it to get to the scout pack.

Triple jump... I'm a little woried.

 

[Outright Villainy]

It's like propaganda from 1984. Every update is the biggest one ever, and half life episode three is continually promised to be coming.

And the constant balance/bug fixes.

"What are you talking about, it was always like that."

 

[Outright Villainy]

I just started TF2 again a few days ago, and can't believe I ever stopped D:
(While we're here, does anyone have any tips on Triple jumping with the FAN? I can't get the angle right most of the time..)

Depends on what you're going for. For distance, aim as far down as you can, and after you've done both double jumps just fire straight down.

For a force jump (maximum vertical height), aim at a 45 degree angle to the ground in front of you, then jump crouch and fire at the same time (well, in rapid succession, but you have to hold crouch). You should shoot straight up into the air.

Darn it.

I think Thursday will be Technological Thursday then.

 

[Awesome74]

The engie better get at least two packs tomorrow. Seems that the engineer updates are always the latest, hmm.

 

[NooNameLeft]

I think I'm in love with the new shotgun. It is *shed a tear* prefect.

 

[DasDestroyer]

Honestly, unless this update takes TF2 back to before the introduction of hats somewhere around the Sniper update, I don't really care.

 

[Slanzinger]

I very much look forward to the Pyro's shiny new item... Being a massive flare gun user this is rather exciting.
(For those of you who haven't seen it, pay attention to the battle plan, maggots!)

Also, I can live with the engie being left out of this one. Intrigued to see what the medic gets though, if it is anything outside of the "meet the" video. My guess is there will be something else there.

Did anybody else notice on Day 2 how OVERPOWERED demoknights are going to be?! Thats freakin rediculous! THERE IS NO DOWNSIDE!

How is not having a grenade launcher, sticky bombs or any projectile weapon NOT a downside?
