**** yeah, this sounds good. From a guy on SA supposedly. These are only rumors.

-New gametype being worked on for Heavy update. Will change TF2 forever. Reason why update is delayed. May end up releasing in September.
-Heavy unlocks solid. Clue words given are "popeye" and "ghostbusters". BEGIN SPECULATION.
-Patch has alot of stuff in it. People requesting to split it up so we get something soon.
-No Meet the Vid or word on the next one. Smaller piece of media that was announced earlier is a mystery so far.
-Apparently one of the testers for the game blabbed about the features and now its spreading around. MUST GET INFO NOW!
-Rumor that update will cost money (This is probably the most erroneous piece of info on the list)
-Rumor is that popeye/ghostbusters is some kind of weapon affecting the actual heavy model. Again, just a rumor.


The part about buying the update, total bullshit for us PC gamers. Maybe for the 360 fags. The new gamemode sounds real since it has some evidence to support it. Check out the official TF2 blog ( http://teamfortress.com/ ) has some concept art of a new, strange looking map.

Woo Hoo!

Damnit, I wanted updates for Scouts/Soldiers :(

The map looks very interesting. I'm assuming the missile comes out of the ground as the map progresses and once it is fully out of the ground, the game ends and one team loses or something.

I want updates to come out for 360, it's getting annoying. We only have a few maps anyway, we don't have construct or he othero ones. Still, wat we have is pretty awesome.

Hunted mode?

And Chunky, the 360 updates are said to arrive sometime before Christmas. Haha, fags. And construct? That's a Gmod map.

Imagine The Heavy wearing an unlicenced nuclear accelerator on it's back. Just don't cross the streams.

Okay, so, you know the Civilian class in TFC? Well, there was a mode where you had to either defend him or attack him. Only Heavy, Soldier and Sniper could defend him and the rest had to try and kill him. It was r8 fun.

****, going to play right now.

Huh...sounds kinda odd. Especially with the selective classes. And an Engineer should be defending him too. The Civilian was in TF2, was a console command that was fixed.

Oops, I got confused. It's actually Heavy and Soldier (as far as I know) defending and the Sniper attacking.

Sounds dumb. A gamemode where you can only use 3 classes?

Quote from "wiki"
In escort maps, the players are split into three teams—a single VIP, the VIP's bodyguards and a group of assassins. The goal of escort maps is for the bodyguards to escort the VIP to a given point on the map, while the assassins attempt to kill the VIP before he gets there


I think this is what he was talking about

Not really, that one you just move a ****ing cart around by standing near it. This one you have to actually move a person
