More interesting bits:

Robin Walker: We’re still working on Meet the Pyro, which will let you see the world through the Pyro’s eyes.

Robin Walker: One of the other things we tried was a secondary weapon that instantly teleported the Engineer to his teleport exit. So Engineers could leave their sentrygun for a bit to skirmish or collect metal, and be able to immediately teleport back to the sentrygun if something bad happened. It did work at achieving those goals, but we didn’t like the side effects. Teleporters stopped being much of a team focused tool, with Engineers placing them in places that made sense for their personal use, and not necessarily for the team. We also felt it was too easy for Engineers, almost eliminating the risk inside the decision of whether they should leave their nest to grab some resources. Both of these were solvable issues, but while testing this we found another idea that played much better, attacked the same problem of Engineers being rewarded for moving out from their nest occasionally, and had lots of other interesting applications.

We’re already working on the next big update after the Engineer pack, though.

No solid details however. No Engy update date or anything else so don't get your hopes up .

I've still been playing TF2 this past year simply because I'm waiting for the Meet the Pyro video.*

*Not really.

Seriously Walker should give himself an uppercut.

I haven't approved everything they've done. Not by a long shot. I think the Sniper vs Spy update was horrible for a start and the gameplay today still suffers because of it. The Scout Update was even worse at first. I think the constant focus on cosmetics rather than, say, maps is also a huge mistake.

But I still enjoy the game and the updates.

and still act as the mouthpiece for the gospel of valve everytime there's a minor and entirely ignorable press/hype release

I posted a TF2 related interview in the TF2 forum.

Ahh yes, they fucked their own game.

Because releasing content for a 3 year old game SHOULD piss everyone off. How dare they keep this game alive. In your personal opinion they should have let it go the way of Counter-Strike, a game which received very little in the way of new content since it's release? I suppose all games in your opinion should, burn brightly for a year after release and then only be reserved for "professional players (lolfaggots) and people who really have no clue whats going on because they just bought the game for $5 (loln00bs)?

You are such an insidious, parasitic, unappeasable, unpleasant, and whiny faggot.

As far as I'm concerned I've gotten my $35 out of TF2 10 fold compared to other games of the same price. I hope they add more weapons, add more maps, and more hats and add more functions to the game for many years to come.

But seriously, I don't think "professional" (lol) players care about the unlocks, since the leagues ban them if they fuck up gameplay too much.

TL;DR version is cougar commenting. at Uzique's secret obsession over cougar's penis.
