    Heavy Update Imminent

    An update on the official Team Fortress blog has revealed that the Heavy class update could be arriving sometime following the next seven days:
    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 maps 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.

    The community-made map included in the Heavy update is cp_steel, by Jamie 'Fishbus' Manson. After the Pyro update we received a lot of email telling us how wrong we were in our choices, and cp_steel was an easy next choice due to the way it dominated the suggestions. If you're firing up your email right now to tell us that we never get anything right, please include suggestions of what map(s) we should be looking at next.

    We'll be updating A Heavy Update site with more info daily. Stay tuned!

          The only thing worse than steel is oilrig.

          And I hope it's released before I go on vacation, but that's not till the 21st so I should be good.

              Why is steel bad news? If it's a bad map, it won't get played. We've got enough good maps around (both official and custom) that there's no reason to be pissing around on crap ones. It doesn't matter if it's made official or not...

              What's more, we've got 6 (?) MORE maps coming with this update as well!

                  New game type? 6 new maps? Including a new PL map? With new Heavy weapons?

                  That equals orgasm!
