Team Fortress 2 WAR update!

Archive: 19 posts


http://www.teamfortress.com/images/posts/war_01.jpg (http://www.teamfortress.com/war/)

So: how is the War update different from our other class updates?

In many ways, it's not. Like any other class update, the War update will reveal three new weapons each for the Demoman and Soldier throughout the week, as well as some maps, achievements, and surprises, right up until the day of release, when everything we've been teasing goes live.

Where the War update differs from other class updates is that we've decided to mix things up a little with, as the Administrator would say, "a healthy competition." A secret, exclusive seventh weapon has also been developed by the TF2 team. In other words, either the Soldier or the Demo (but NOT both) is walking out of this update with one more weapon than the other. If you want your class to have it, you're going to have to fight for it. The more Demomen you kill as the Soldier class will help ensure the Soldier gets the weapon at the end of the week. The more Soldiers you kill as the Demo will help the Demo class get the exclusive seventh weapon. Check back daily to see how your class is doing at the War hubpage (http://www.teamfortress.com/war/) ? this is also where you'll see links to all the leaked previews of the weapons, maps, and surprises releasing soon with this update.

What if some of you try to cheat to bump the numbers? We'll know. (Though we also know many of you won't be able to resist trying anyway.)

Alright, enough talk. Who'd you rather see get this exclusive new weapon? The Demoman (http://www.teamfortress.com/demomanupdate)? Or the Soldier (http://www.teamfortress.com/soldierupdate)? The War starts right now, so get out there and vote with your kills!
The demo/solly update? Finally. I'm for soldier.

I'm going for demoman. But I doubt he'll win so I'm just gonna go for team sandvich. I wonder what the actual class update will contain though.

Can't wait till the blueprints do actually get released

Oh, just for lols, look at these hat skins that replace the gibus (http://www.fpsbanana.com/skins/78883) and bills hat (http://www.fpsbanana.com/skins/78891) XD. They make any other sniper a dead giveaway but it's just for lols remember.

If I could make my own blueprints, I'd make;
Grenade Launcher + Heavy Fists = Ka-Pow! HaHa!

The war seems to be over. 2 demoman weapons announced. New comic.

I didn't think they would give the characters names. I am definately using those first 2 things.
I think you should read them in this order =P

I was for soldier but the demoman needed those boots heaps more.

I got to play with the equaliser and direct hit for an hour then I got a hat [there was like a giant explosion of hats] and lost connection. Now I can't play with any weapons.

I really like running away while being shot at because it makes me run faster then I turn around and whack their head off with the pickaxe.

With the new crafting system it's 81 weapons to craft a random hat and 112 for a class specific one.
That's quite alot. For a hat.

Otherwise I've been enjoying this update. The new weapons are a blast, and atleast one of the two new maps (gorge) is fun.

Crafting weapons? Easy, takes like 10 weapons. Hats? It would take less time earn it randomly than it would to craft them.

I got the Eyelander and the Targe yesterday, really good but now I can't sticky jump. D:
