It's been a couple of weeks since we posted, so we thought it'd be good to do some housekeeping. The next class pack will focus on the Sniper. It's actually shaping up to be the largest TF2 update yet, with multiple new maps and a bunch of gameplay tweaks. In addition, we've got another update in the works that should be done before the Sniper, and that one will include some new content for all classes.

I wish Valve would grow some balls, and just get all the characters out at once instead of this one by one crap. It heavily outbalances the game, 4 of the 9 classes are now suffering from the lack of optional weaponry.

The point of the new weapons is to increase versatility, not make a class more powerful. It's true that the added flexibility the new options offer aren't there for the non-updated classes, but when you leave the spawn point with whatever configuration you've chosen, no updated class should be inherently more powerful than any other.

It's all situational -- the updates just make for more potential situations.

I never said anything about 1 class being stronger due to "updates" .....

1 - The second a class update is released, servers upon servers are nothing but that 1 "class"

2 - It leaves the classes without options with no options (WOC)

3 - Every update is a fuckup on servers anyways cause its always released with a baffling amount of bugs that either crash servers, d/c ppl, or have a new exploit.

4 - All servers are stumped with single class players making gameplay very bland and boring since everyone wants to get the new weapons.

I dont know about the 360 version but from what I see in the tf2 blog they don't have any class updates. If the PC version was the same then all the classes would most likely get updated at the same time.

If Valve would take their sweet time in actually testing their updates before releasing to better secure a greater gaming experiance I would infact wouldn't mind delays if it ment a stabalized gaming environment. But they never do so shit hits the fan every class update.

Yeah it was more of a "watch me" alice in wonderland type reference.

I dread the day of the inevitable engineer update. I don't see how they could pull something off like that without having something like the Spy update come with it.
