Bonk!

First unlockable has been announced, a bat and ball that stun enemies. You lose the ability to double jump though. Here's the teaser:

I'm excited (but then again, I play pyro. Lots of scouts to burn next week!)

Finally Valve shows us a peep at the update, took a while.

Sad that not many Dakkaites have experienced the True beauty of the Gaming World...

Don't eat my bologna Sandviches!

Can't wait to see more unlocks for the scout.

Is this stuff going to be available for the 360 version of this game?

None of the other stuff was, so I doubt it

Yay, TF2 now has a DE-Dust map!

I just loled that it took them 6 months to make 3 skins for guns and to steal 3 community maps. Valve time just seems to get longer and longer.

That AND the lack of a new 'Meet The..' video seeing as the last one was just a tiny animation with some voiceovers..

TF2 is so hard to play with pubs. No teamwork = no fun IMO. Glad to see that things are finally rolling along though. I can't wait until they come out with a demo man update. Maybe some trip mines or something for an updated weapon. who knows?

Ahhh, almost every game has been littered with scouts as of late. Makes CP games on defense almost no fun....

I just started playing TF2 on Friday.

And wow, the ineptitude of some scouts?
Is amazing.

But, to be fair, alot of the achievements that I've seen for Scouts don't really encourage them to play nice with others, or even to really attempt objectives.

Pyros on the other hand...
*fire!*

You should try to find a nice community and GET A MIC. Try playing on Lotus, CP, (control point, no, not child porn ) F7 lans, and various other group servers. They genrally have at least one good person on there with a mic that tells the noobs what to do, which in many cases= teamwork

Have to agree with pizzaman. Find a good server and contribute. You'll see the same people and will be able to work together.

I'm not a fan of the bonk ignoring ubers. Rockets bounce off but a good bonk will pretty much ruin the uber. What makes it worse is I never see any scouts in the top half of the scores. Maybe it is because I play Warpath all the time.

TF2, like CS source, is best played on a server that plays random music and sound clips. Preferably dance music.

This video is funny:
