http://www.teamfortress.com/119/comingsoon.html

he looks happy about what he did.

Been waiting for a update for my favorite class. Can't wait to see what new stuff the engineer will have.:D

!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

Woohee! will you look at that! :D

Soon probably means in a year or so in "Valve time"...

YESS!!!!!!!

Can I get a HELLL YEAH!!!! From my fellow Engies? Come on? Where is the Engie love!!!
My fav to play no doubt!

About time! I can't Wait! :P

An all Engineer Matches for the first week or so? sounds like fun, and I'm sure the Spy's/Demos will be having a blast as well.:lol:

Sweet! I can't wait to see what they came up with. :)

Soon probably means in a year or so in "Valve time"...

I hope not... I can't find a conversion of "soon" in Valve time. I guess we'll find out.;)

*Does Engie dance*

OMG can't wait :D Hopefully by coming soon, they mean really soon. I'm guessing at the end of the month?

Next month i bet, but thats just a wild guess.

Seems like in the past when they announce an update its a month or two away.

Its gonna be exciting for sure, seeing as how he's the last of the 9 to get some love and he's just overall an interesting class with the buildables and such. Right now my new favorite's probably the heavy.. I used to suck playing him, but since the little update that fixed his minigun speed and stuff, I find I've been tearing things down to shreds a lot easier.

I'm really digging the new community items as well, its gonna breathe a lot of fresh air into a game that's already been updated to hell and beyond. Back to the engi though, I found it interesting how you can see some sort of odd robotic-looking head piece on the ground behind where he's working. That, and there seems to be the pyro's flamer just in front of him if I recall? I wonder if he's going to get some fiery upgrade to help him out a little with the sneaky spy harassments. :P Then again I somewhat hope not, seeing as spy's gotten tricky enough with flying pee jars and whatnot..

Maybe it's something to give the Engineers's Turrets a chance to spot Invisible Spies.Treflis

did you guys see the mechanical arm blue print in the background?

This too is another interesting thing to take note of. I did notice that actually, along with that weird robot head behind him with the red eye-looking thing. Kinda seems Portal-ish to me.

One kind of obvious thing no one mentioned: See his hammer he used at the end? He uses a wrench in the game right now, so maybe they are going to add that hammer to replace the wrench.

lol, the game is not broken at all, it just gets better and better

Engi is the most boring class, but I'm glad to see all the updates for each class going out and done.pvtdonut54

its obviously gonna be some sort of more complex crafting/trading system

it is the engineer after all

people will probably be able to design their own weapons or something like that

I say they should do the following: 1. Hammer instead of wrench. Builds buildings 25% faster for people who like getting turrets up quickly. 2. Flamethrower add-on to turrets. Sure missile launchers are great but give me a flame thrower to throw on it instead and imagine the choke point you could create. 3. Utility Belt. Allows the engineer to hold 50 more metal then normal. I know I would love extra metal when placing buildings in areas with low metal respawns. Anyone else agree?Cdscottie

need some downsides. i know some of the new weapons seem like definite upgrades, but there's always something bad about them.

Engineers are strong enough on their own... I hope this update doesn't make them op

Engi getting Mecha-suit? Like Hitler/Staatmeister in Wolfenstein 3D? Something similar? NOT GOOD.

There's an article on Valve's blog, about Repair node thingy. It is supposed to auto-repair buildings so engi could directly help his comrades on battlefield, but they dumped plans for that, since it made problems with team balance on certain maps.
