Team Fortress 2 - A Heavy Update

There will be one update per day for one week.

Quote:
In addition to the three unlockable weapons and thirty-five achievements for the Heavy, we've got a new game mode with five new maps for it, a new Payload map focusing on more open spaces than Goldrush, and another popular community-made map

What's the first update? CP_Steel becomes part of the official rotation.

The largest update yet to Valve's online shooter Team Fortress 2 is set to go live next Tuesday, August 19, according to the developer.

The update will include seven fresh maps and a new game mode, in addition to new unlockable weapons and achievements for the Heavy class.

Valve plans to reveal each element of the patch--as well as a "special installment" to the "Meet the Team" video series--in a series of daily updates to its website.

The first announced map was revealed to be community-created level cp_steel (pictured above). Described as a "complex Attack/Defense control point map" by Valve, the arena was created by Jamie "Fishbus" Manson, and marks the first of six website reveals.

The mysteriously unannounced game mode will come supported with five Valve-crafted maps. A "new Payload map focusing on more open spaces than Goldrush" will also be released, according to Valve's Robin Walker.

I'm a little wary about the Arena mode... it sounds like they are trying to attract the counterstrike crowd, and I personally never did like the one life and then sit for 3 or 4 minutes until everyone else is dead.

Yeah if Counterstrike had TDM I would buy it cuz you can't go wrong with over 10 freakin' SMGs

[AmazingRedd]

Counter-strike does have TDM and tons of others game modes.
