Expect your favorite Team Fortress 2 server to be filled with throaty laughs and wailing miniguns next week when Valve unleashes their next big update. As reported on Valve’s official TF2 blog, the Heavy will be the next class to receive a trio of new weapons which, as usual, will be unlocked by completing the 35 new Heavy-specific achievements. However, as Valve’s Robin Walker reports, that’s not all we have to be excited about.
“We’ve been a little quiet for the last week as we’ve put the finishing touches on the Heavy update,” explains
That’s right, in addition to the Heavy’s expanded arsenal we can also expect to see a new game mode, complete with five new arenas to go along with it, a new Payload map, and a community made map that has been popping up all over: Jamie Manson’s cp_steel. And, as if that wasn’t enough, another “special installment” of the “Meet the…” series is in the works along with plans for another free weekend of TF2 which will start on Friday, August 22nd.
Maybe now is a good time for some of us to catch up on our Medic achievements.
