27 golden wrenches gone already... wow2010-07-06 03:00:00

So new critting shotgun, and a remote-controlled sentry.

I looked at the achievements, and there's one called Honky-Tonk with a picture of a guitar, so this either means one of his weapons is getting a guitar taunt, or he is getting a guitar melee. Which would be awesome.

If you check the page, you can see a meter right above the wrench counter. ATM, it's at yellow and there are two more left, which means two more announcements. I'm guessing the last announcement is either a new Meet The Team video or the announcement of the trading system.

@Arkei Actually, that meter is how many golden wrenches are left. Its at the center of the yellow as 50/100 wrenches have been given out

BUT, at the right of the main sign there are three lights, 2 of the are lit, and they turned on when a new set was announced. (Today the map and sentry gun thing came out, but only one light came on.) So, this means theres only gonna be one more set of items, but there may be more than one.

The brainslug? I want it too, it's so adorable. Every single hat I've crafted has been a heavy hat.

I actually got like a ton of weapons out of nowhere on sunday, but I had to leave so I couldn't craft them for the update.

100th wrench was found, and page has been updated.

3 new maps.

There's a glove that replaces the wrench, the gunslinger, which gives you a much better melee and more health, and allows you to build "mini-sentries". I don't know if you can still build regular sentries or not.

There are two achievements referring to a guitar, one about killing someone with a guitar and one about guitar taunting. So either there's going to be a guitar melee, or there is a guitar kill taunt.

There were hidden pictures showing an engi moving a sentry, and several achievements refer to moving buildings.

Oh, in the update they nerfed the shiv and the gunboats for absolutely no reason.

The gunslinger has a kill taunt where the fingers spin around and gib people. The wrangler kill-taunt makes you play a song on a guitar and smash it.

It's a super awesome multiplayer-only class-based FPS from Valve, makers of Portal and Half-Life. Just look it up on youtube.

BTW, get it on PC. It blows everywhere else.

Looks like an awesome update. It does indeed blow everywhere else, I have it for the PS3, and I'd really love to have updates. I'm semi hoping that Valve's support for the PS3 might retrofit it. Also, this looks rather cool: http://www.teamfortress.com/engineerupdate/engineer_photos/

If I'm seeing what I think i'm seeing... movable turrets *faints*

They nerfed the sandvich...

Today, every server I went on had about 8 engineers on each team. Coincidentally enough, I had my best game as a sniper to date. I can safely say those hard hats don't stop a high-powered round.

There's a glitch where you can build a level 3 sentry, then pick it up with the gunslinger and put it back down. It gives you a level 3 mini-sentry that fires twice as fast and has rockets.

You can also rocket jump by using the wrangler with a level 3.

They added a long recharge meter to it. I personally thought it wasn't overpowered or over-used by the fact that you leave yourself vunerable for several seconds while using it and it means you don't have to worry about lugging a medic around with you.

In reality it was a bit OP. I would say the sandvich was an upgrade to the shotgun, not a side-grade.2010-07-22 14:38:00

Good news on the sandvich, taunting with it doesn't use up the meter (but you obviously don't use it's health giving properties). The tea party tradition may still live!2010-07-28 08:01:00
