Text taken from the first update day: [QUOTE]Doomsday pits BLU against RED, [I]with only one team getting the honor of transporting a suitcase nuke full of recalled Mann Co. Australium to American monkeynaut Poopy Joe’s rocket, so he can blast off and hunt down [B]Soviet [/B]space chimp Vladimir Bananas.[/I] [/QUOTE] Now we realize that the real spy is not the spy but the heavy. Smart guy playing dumb.:tinfoil:

I was gonna say that the backpack the scout is carrying on "mission control" looks like the rocketboy jetpack but I'm obviously wrong

Only the excitement of seeing a Valve-made TF2 update page can get me so worked up that it actually becomes HARD TO READ WORDS IN THE RIGHT ORDER. I get so pumped up I become momentarily dyslexic. Anyway, Valve is notorious for underexplaining things about updates. I'm sure the new gamemode will be very fun, and possibly more complicated/involved than we are all thinking. Also, Day 2 gauge is cracked-- simple aesthetic choice, or FORESHADOWING?

That timer on the update page is definitely the countdown to MtP which means that it should go live around 2PM EST on Wednesday.

OH GOD YES! Finally a new gamemode.

[i]and we decided to assemble a [b]massive[/b] update to celebrate it.[/i] IT BETTER BE MASSIVE. massive would indicate a lot of content.

>everyone expects robots Guys, it's valve, expect the unexpected.

I wonder why the middle guage is cracked at the end of the dial. Does that mean something big happens tommorow?

I don't get it. Is everyone retarded? I just told me friend of the update page. When he saw it he just said "plr". I told him that this is a brand new gamemode and he said "even worse". LIKE WHAT THE FUCK. Would you rather have a new series crates or what.

Meet The Kerbal Space Program.

50 hours until the update goes live? That'd be around 8pm GMT+1. On Wednesday.

[QUOTE=psyke;36483152][i]and we decided to assemble a [b]massive[/b] update to celebrate it.[/i] IT BETTER BE MASSIVE. massive would indicate a lot of content.[/QUOTE] Remember that this is extremely early to have a blog post, I would expect something else later in the day.

Is it bad that I am not surprised that people are disappointed? Really, for some odd reason the community gets disappointed every update. Honestly I find this update so far fine, they have not even gotten to the meat of the update yet. I even found the scout update really good, and manconomy update horrible, probably due to my opinion on trading / the current state of the economy.

wait guys wait what if guys, what if What if the Secret Diary is Poopy Joe's?

Hmm. So we think it's going to be a ctf like gamemode? Maybe they'll also release MvM? I'm not sure about the description, sounds like there could be multiple objectives. Also, pressed tab but can't see any secrets on the page. Any discovered, (I suppose I should check source) Edit: Interesting, page source has a wrong URL [url]http://www.teamfotress.com/pyromania/images/meta_doomsday.jpg[/url] but image still works (Note temFOTress)

I bet that that space down at the bottom will one day have a TOBOR in it...

While I agree that the new gamemode doesn't seem like something spectacular, I think we should wait until more details about it are out to pass judgement on it.

Have you seen the scout jetpack on success icons ?

I also expect something later today. Besides it being an extremely early post, they did say "all week"
