| Heavy update coming next Tuesday!!!! |
|---|
| Posted by I Like Turtles! on Tue Aug 12, 2008 9:11 pm |
Valve announced today that the "Heavy Update," which it describes as "the largest update to Team Fortress 2 since it was first released," will be rolling out via Steam next week, August 19. The Heavy-focused revision will bring with it new maps, new Achievements, new game modes and a special installment of the "Meet the Team" video series. That means the Heavy class will finally get his new weapon load out, as the Medic and Pyro have already done.
The developer is dolling out details on the Heavy Update throughout the week, with today's news drip focusing on a new officially released community map. Steel, a capture map, was created by Jamie "Fishbus" Manson. It will join a new map for the Payload game mode and five new maps for the unnamed new game mode.
Details on how the Heavy will be updated in TF2 haven't been revealed yet, but the goal, according to the game's official blog, was to "make the Heavy more viable when he has no Medic to pair with." Sounds, well, heavy.
ZOMG!

UPDATE:
From http://www.teamfortress.com/
We've been a little quiet for the last week as we've put the finishing touches on the Heavy update. We thought the Pyro pack was the biggest we'd be doing for a while, due to the large changes to the Pyro, but the Heavy update has turned out to be even bigger. In addition to the three unlockable weapons and thirty-five achievements for the Heavy, we've got a new game mode with five new arenas for it, a new Payload map focusing on more open spaces than Goldrush, and another popular community-made map. Throughout the rest of the week we'll be giving you the details on all this, and if all goes well, you'll have your hands on it shortly afterwards.
So it's 5 new 'arenas' for the new gameplay type. Was hoping for some more attack-defend or more CP maps 
'a new Payload map focusing on more open spaces than Goldrush' - should be interesting and hopefully better for Scouts.

- Fixed backburner's flame critical hits not being recalculated after
collision. This meant that it would check if the target was looking away
once and after that the flame could score a critical hit again even if
the orientation changed
- Added back some damage falloff to the Pyro's flamethrower. Not nearly
as extreme as it was before the Pyro class pack
- Fixed bug that caused Demomen to take a small amount of extra damage
from their own grenades and fly farther using them
- Fixed spy getting stuck in players after removing his disguise
- Fixed spy stabbing and being able to go invisible instantly
- Fixed spy disguised as enemy medic being able to spam voice commands
- Fixed buffed health not decaying properly after being healed by a
dispenser
- Selectable menus can now be operated with number keys even if they are
not bound to slot1, slot2, etc.
- Removed the remaining speed adjustments for carrying intelligence (a
couple of game modes still reduced your maxspeed)
- Fixed a buildable item placement bug where the object would not rotate
after the user tried to place in an invalid location |
