Heavy Update News

August 18th, 2008  | 

Finally we get news about another update about a class in Team Fortress 2, and this time it’s Heavy. Not know yet when we will get this update live, but absolutely some interesting news for the TF2 gamer.

A new community map will be added, called cp_steel. As you probably know, this will be a control point map. One of the very interesting features is that there will be a new feature for this map new to TF2, and that is that when you capture a control point, the map itself will change, making new route, and remove old routes. This will give another tactical challenge to the player.

A second map that is a payload map will also be added. This one is called Badwater Basin. It will have more open space and less chokepoints than the previous payload map Goldrush.

One of the new items for the Heavy will be the Killing Gloves of Boxing. It will be a melee weapon, and when you kill someone with it you will get a five second boost of guarateed critical hits. This boost can be used also with other weapons of you decide to change after killing some with the gloves.

Another 35 achievements is of course added to the game, and some of the highlights are “Eat 100 sandviches” (?), “Kill an enemy with a critical punch” and “Get 1000 assists”. Quite a few hard ones here, so be prepared to fight for your achievements! (as allways…)

The second unlockable weapon is a new minigun, called Natascha. It will have 25 % less firepower than your old gun, but will give you a 100 % chance to slow down the target on hit. Very useful for those bastard Scouts running around.

Still two more features to be unlocked, so stay tuned for more information about the Heavy update.
