Surely thats not true.

It's community made. Valve are just showing people because it's a well made page.

The class itself is terrible so why would they put it in the game? Does ferrying health packs to other members of the team sound fun to you? And having 3 of these dogs on the team would be even worse than having 3 spies.

So don't worry it's nothing more than a joke. The Steam Forums seem to think otherwise for some weird reason but thats just the Steam Forums for you.

LOL. I think it would be fun if they put it in, the whole team would go round as dogs but no doubt the game would degrade into utter shite.

I have never been on the steam forums, everyone talks about them as if they are headless chickens, might have to see what all this fuss is about.

Save yourself and don't go on the steam user forums D:.

God that was painful to read.

Thank god, someone else who didn't find it funny.

New Halloween based TF2 blog.

Complete with what I assume is an upcoming update of some sort. I dunno i've not read it yet.

Edit: Ok.

There's be a small update later. 5 hats can be unlocked with 5 new achievements (I think). Community map KOTH Harvest, but with new features like a ghost that can scare (stun) you, and exploding pumkins.

Coming out later today. Should be fun .

I think the new hats are going to be only out for a week or something. Or just the achievements so you can only get the hats now. There's a thing at the top right saying 'Oct 29th through to Nov 2nd'. Anyway should be fun. I'd definitely look foward to more 'holiday themed events' in the future.

Here's the achievements anyway.

Answers some of the questions about the announcer voices.

I'm still convinced the next update will add JC Denton as the 10th class.

Not yet it seems.

We've decided this is final proof that TF2 fans are smarter, more creative, and much better looking than fans of all other video games.

That made me laugh.

Also yeah I'm glad they scrapped that idea and can really understand why it went wrong. I can just imagine games full of repair node Engineers, and everyone else on the team absolutely hating them because they have no teleporter or dispenser.

Also this part sounds pretty cool:

New buildings in the Engineer update will probably take the form of upgrades, or entirely new choices alongside the old buildings, instead of replacements.

So from the sounds of that, we'll get to keep the Sentry, Dispenser and Teleporter AND build new buildings at the same time.

Engineer really needs some buildings that aren't automatic

a user-controlled sentry, doesn't shoot when you're not in it, more vulnerable to spies and just getting hurt in general (considering you'd have to get out to repair it), but more damage potential

or something
