Meet the Spy (at last)
Most of you would have ‘Met the Spy’ over the course of the weekend when the video was mysteriously leaked onto YouTube, but now you can see it in all of its glory here and also check out the new Spy achievements.

We were duped, the lot of us, that damned Spy fooled us all into thinking we were getting a Sniper update whilst all along he had his own update coming.
Valve’s Greg Cherlin has revealed over on the Team Fortress 2 blog that the Sniper will be the next class to get a major update. The Sniper update is going to be one of the largest TF2 updates so far. …
And guess what? It’s next week!
Yes, Valve has let it be known that work on the Scout Update has almost reached completion, and they’re going to kindly drip feed us info over the next week to tell us exactly what everyone’s favourite Ritalin addict will be getting come the 24th.
You can find the info page here, and you’ll want to check back on the days stated. The first reveal, The Sandman bat, looks pretty awesome if I’m honest, so I can’t wait to see what else they’ve got cooking.
Reckon he’ll get that sandvich now, fatty.

Listen, man! There’s like, a whole bunch o’ new stuff promised for me, dude! I’m gettin’ a new promotion, okay? Do you have any idea how significant this is? Are you even listening? More stuff to hurt people with!
Stuff. Nails?
Just perhaps dude. Here’s the cool thing: Robin Walker, one of my employers at Valve (although they can’t control me for shit, I mean like, they don’t own me [Yes they do – Ed.]), said this yesterday:
We’re just about done with the Scout pack, and our design and coding has already moved on to the next pack. The weapons and achievements are all nailed down and we just have to finish up the final artwork on them.
That’s indeed very much what I’m talking about, brudda! Woo!
Team Fortress 2 has received a pretty large update. It isn’t renovating a class, there’s no ‘Meet the….’ video, unfortunately, but it does come with a lot of rather large changes to the game, the most striking of which apply to the Engineer. I’m sure a lot of people who like to guess what each class’ updates will include will be a little surprised; it is adding a lot of what has been said, with an update still in the works. Follow below for a detailed impression from a quick session with the changes.
There is The Plan. You stick to The Plan. The Plan is boss, it dictates all that you do and God help you if you divert from it. The Plan works, and when things all go wrong there is only one person to blame, and that is yourself. Give yourself a good hard long look in the mirror. What you see is not what The Plan wants; it’s what The Plan makes do with.
