And the next TF2 updated class will be....

The Scout!
But it sounds like they've only just settled on which class to update, they're still asking the public how they would upgrade him. Aw.
They're also planning a mini update to the Engineer and Spy; all buildings can now be upgraded to level 3 and collecting metal will speed up the Spy's invisibility charger.

Neat. I love Playing the Scout. He's really my default choice when I'm not "feeling" something specific.

He's alright yea, plus if the enemy team doesn't have an SG up you can play hell if you're quick enough.

Yeah a good scout is really annoying.

"They're also planning a mini update to the Engineer and Spy"
Actually that's already released. It's very hard to take down an engie as a soldier or heavy now.

TF2 is $10 only on Steam this weekend!
store.steampowered.com

Or get orange box for $30

figured this would be a good spot to ask this, instead of starting a new thread:

how much hard drive space is required for the Orange Box? I'll be buying the physical DVD version (not the online Steam version, if it makes a difference)

I'll be running OB through boot camp on XP on the MBP in my sig

thanks!

Ah, well you might as well be getting the online version. All games (barring HL2 and Ep1) have been updated since being released on DVD, and I'm not sure if the updates have made it onto the discs. So there might be a fair lot to update
But other than that there's no difference. In total it seems to take up around 7.5gb on my HDD. But it's hard to pin down exactly how much since Steam shares files for other games like nobodies business.

And yea, it's crazy fun being an engie now! They were my 4th most used class overall (or 3rd in recent months), but now the decision to go engie is easily made especially since they're really nerfed my fave class. Seriously, bullets taking out demomans stickies? Weak!
