Team Fortress 2 Pyro Update Week

From Valve:

Valve today announced a set of new releases for Team Fortress 2, the title named Multiplayer Game of the Year by PC Gamer and Gamespy.com.

The main event of the week is the Pyro Update, which will be made available this Thursday and contains three unlockable new weapons for the Pyro plus 35 new achievements. In addition, two user-created maps are included to highlight the great work being done in the community and distribute those works to all TF2 players..

Meanwhile as folks wait for the Pyro Update to be released, the latest in the "Meet the Team" video shorts, "Meet the Sniper," will be made available tomorrow (Tuesday, June 17) at 11 am PDT along with a web site dedicated to the Pyro update.

Finally, to give everyone a chance to try the new weapons and community maps, Valve will hold another Team Fortress 2 Free Weekend via Steam beginning this Friday at 11 am PDT.

 

You will see me as a Pyro next thursday, after the customnight to try it.

 

I think the custom night won't be over till friday

 

remember that there are timezones. So i think we can not play this update on thursday!

 

11 am PDT (Pacific Daylight Time) is 18.00 GMT and thus 20.00 Amsterdamtime.

*SOURCE*

So I guess if you restart steam around 20.30 or so, the update should download.

 

Fuck, I'm a cub scout leader and on Thursdays we are ding a wet assault course, hows that for irony?

 

I wonder about the custom maps

 

you mean this?

ctf_turbine



those 2 maps are posted by steam!

 

yeh.. but now its becomming a official community release. Valve is distributing custom made maps.. hope valve is going to do that a lot often.. it will keep the game alive and we dont need our downloadservers that much

 

Turbine sucks.
