You heard right, a new update is on the way for TF2.

Welcome to Day One of the Über Update--the biggest, most ambitious update in the history of Team Fortress 2.
We've got a lot to announce as we get closer to the update's release this Thursday, June 23rd. We've been holding one of the surprises pretty close to the vest for months now. We don't want to ruin it, but we'll give you four clues to get you guessing: 
  1.) It IS a "Meet the" short.
    2.) It involves ONE of the two remaining classes.
    3.) It's NOT the Pyro.
    4.) It's the MEDIC.
Mobster Monday includes the Tomislav, The Family Business, and The Eviction Notice all for the Heavy. The Spy receives The Enforcer, The Big Earner, and The Made Man. It also includes a new payload map, Barnblitz. These items along with Meet the Medic will actually be released this Thursday.


Well, fuck me. Day 2 is out, and while the Sniper one doesnt seem so bad, the demo(knight) just got broke son.

Timbuk Tuesday brings you:

They just had a double drop rate week so I have several pages of spare items I can use to craft the new ones straight away, as does everyone else who has been waiting for this update since it was first leaked a few months ago. Assuming of course there are specific crafting recipies for them and not just the useless random craft ones.

I hope MTM is good.

The new minigun sounds ridiculously overpowered, as does the new Spy knife when used with the Dead Ringer.

TF2 died to me when the store came out. I've probably played about 2 rounds since.

It's no hassle really, it builds up on it's own.

It is of course all really unnecessary and I wish they'd go back to the achievement system. It was always fun unlocking weapons that way.

highly dependent on the absurd market values, but keys are ~$2 and refined metals $0.90 at the moment. everything else is pretty much adjusted according to those values.

keys cost like $2.50 in store IIRC... nice 80% discount you got going there.

I'm happy we're finally getting it, and I do hope its good as well, at least Meet the Spy quality.

Concerning the weapons, I'll agree the new minigun sounds OP, spool up would be about as fast as switching weapons if I'm calculating correctly?

As for the knife, using that in combination with L'etranger and Dead Ringer gets you an instant winning combo right there

pyros have never been even remotely as annoying as post meet the spy spies / snipers still are.

The 225Hp, no damage fall-of, ultra-crit Backburner only laster a few days. The Huntsman and Dead Ringer are permanently annoying.

Agree, spy/sniper update was fucking horrendous. Nowadays I just play heavy/medic with a friend on 2fort for relaxation purposes, really easy if you have any fucking clue how to play.
