Valve Announces 'Classless' Team Fortress 2 Update

Site updated with new info about the update - King of the Hill mode added.

For some reason the random-drop update REALLY killed my enjoyment of TF2. It was weird because I played it a ton, every day. Maybe this'll be the time to jump back in.

Viking? is there some soldier reference i'm not getting?

Oh man, "classless" update. I completely misread that as they were developing a game mode where classes didn't exist ><

Dear Valve,

Love the hats; thanks for making such a badass game. Can I have my Pyro update nao?

xoxo,

It's about time the Heavy got a hat appropriate to him.

Hooray for more hats I'll never get! Thanks Valve, I always wanted pictures of TF2 characters with hats.

I heard an ancient legend of TF2 hats once, if you travel to Mt. Dontexist and back you can get one! But I've only seen a few in existence and suspect that favours for Walker involving a horse are required instead.

One can only hope that one day when the trading system is implemented for items that nobody will ever fucking trade that someone out there who travelled to the mountain and back twice will start selling his hats for a nice profit.

Yes.... beware TF2 players! The time of the hat-mining is soon upon us!

But oh well, in the mean time enjoy scrolling through 10 flareguns in order to equip the shotgun, or delete them, because you will never trade those flareguns for anything anyway.

And then be greeted by an annoying popup message 10 minutes later stating your new-found flaregun, that you will have to spend 2 clicks on deleting because Valve is just not sure whether you really want to delete that item or not. Are you? Are you really sure? Will the world not end if you delete it? Are you absolutely positive with irrefutable evidence that you will not want this item for another 10 minutes? OK! OK.... we'll believe you... this one time, but next time we're just going to make sure again.

It's for your own good, trust us.

Also, enable the enablement of respawning on Arena maps, so that you can have a glorious but short fight over the single middle cap point, if you so wish. Those beautiful maps are going to waste otherwise.

Do it.

How'd you find the hidden images?

hunted is still a class valve, :<

I'm thinkin' part of it will be an Xbox code update... at least I'm hopin' ...

Expect the trading items feature to be added this update.

Seems kind of obvious to me that if you kill a guy that's wearing a hat you will receive a copy of his hat to wear.

Yeah thats what TF2 players want Valve, more hats..............
Oh, and popular arena maps........
.......................

One of the days will show that we can now trade items.

MARK MY WORDS!

very "married to the sea" style of humor with the tower of hats hidden image, awesome.

I hope this means hats drop more often. I still have absolutely no hats. :(

Yay, more hats that most will never see because the fucking things almost never drop.
G. G.

One of those hidden Olde Time looking brochures seems to imply that you can kill someone with a hat and take it from them.

Wow, Valve is also using those retarded MM_preloadImages() js functions

oh man. Please update today, before I go to quakecon!

Hmm the new map, "as they plummet to an excruciating, non-respawnable death. " I think this is a good idea!

A Classless update? Comrades rejoice! The Heavy's ideological dream will be accomplished!

I want a hat! Or a couple! Or all of them! I play this game a lot, and I still don't have a hat! :-(

And they need to implement item trading so I can empty my burdened inventory into my second copy of TF2. I bought another copy on a different account so I can loan it to friends...
