Where the War update differs from other cal.ss updates is that we've decided to mix things up a little with, as the Administrator would say, "a healthy competition." A secret, exclusive seventh weapon has also been developed by the TF2 team. In other words, either the Soldier or the Demo (but NOT both) is walking out of this update with one more weapon than the other. If you want your cla.ss to have it, you're going to have to fight for it. The more Demomen you kill as the Soldier cla.ss will help ensure the Soldier gets the weapon at the end of the week. The more Soldiers you kill as the Demo will help the Demo cla.ss get the exclusive seventh weapon. Check back daily to see how your cla.ss is doing at the War hubpage — this is also where you'll see links to all the leaked previews of the weapons, maps, and surprises releasing soon with this update.

Sounds like a awesome update.:D I think I will be playing more of the solider to kill some Demo.:P

I hear alot of people say how the demoman is OP'd and I see far more demo men than soldiers.

So, yeah, not a very fair competition. Demoman will win.

Eh, it used to be but they "nerfed" Demoman, so to speak a while back. Especially the stickies.

:3 I kind of like both cIasses... Soldier is kind of cute but demoman is real funny too and harder to use.

I predict demo will win though.

So... This implies that whatever class doesn't win will probably follow shortly after this update(couple weeks, maybe a month). If they are ready to release now, then I don't see any reason for them to sit on it for a long time. Good news for both classes regardless of which one comes out on top.

Just came back from the game, and a lot of people seem to be choosing Solider lol. This is going to be exciting.:D I wouldn't mind if the demo won through, I am just glad that at least the solider class is finally getting updated.

I was thinking long and hard. I think demoman is much more versatile and complex than soldier. So imo the soldier needs an extra weapon moar. I'm going to blast some demo's!

Well, now seems like a very good time to test my cousin's computer's integrated graphics while I stay at her place...>.>

I'm playing as a Medic! :D I don't play either the Demoman or Soldier very often (I'll likely add to the other's kill count) but I hate Demomen as a Backburning Pyro and I know that the Soldier's abilities are greatly boosted with a Medic. Also, as one of the few willing to work as a Medic, I reserve the right to refuse treatment to anyone I hate...:twisted:
