Valve Unveils New TF2 Map, Weapons

sounds interesting... but i think they should leave an option to just stick to "vanilla" in case anything is unbalanced

looks good, haven't played it in a couple of months what with the witcher and moving house taking up my time, still don't have a wired internet connection yet but will give this a blast when it is released.

still, the unlocking thing reminds me of BF2, the difference being TF2 is actualy playable and not frustrating as hell.

Bots in TF2? You missed the point. This is a multiplayer class based game, not your average death match. You need to play it online with a server that has teams with 6 or more on them to feel the rush of victory. I never have a problem finding a server with players during any time of the day. (PC version)

While bots could be made, you would not get the needed team work, including mess ups. I could see a bot spy clearing the bridge in 2 fort in seconds. Not for me..

I'm not to sure how some of these 'new items' are going to effect team balance. Considering how only some players will have an item, while others don't. It could make teams shun other players form playing the medic class. I can hear "I can't get the acheivements cause they don't want me to be a medic." or "We don't have anyone on our team that can do that!" already.

I'm sure to see some servers will want the ability to disable them.
