it's a preview ya dingus
My precious map exploits, why..
Now i'll have to go back to bonking people on thundermountain.
Why does the Spy HUD still have the beta Spy on it?
cp_process, I know comp players love that map and I see it like seemingly every other recent comp video, it's a good map too.
Also I really hope they fix more than map exploits and actually change some of the maps that have some poor design. It seems part of the blog post imply it, but other parts make me go "I am just reading into to it too much". Because a gameplay update (read: not weapons, hats) is more important than anything right now. We have enough gimmicky weapons and hats, but the core of the gameplay feels restricted on most TF2 maps.
Oh my, no new hats, no new weapons. More maps. [b]YES[/b]

they never said no new hats or weapons
[editline]5th July 2013[/editline]
actually they said the opposite earlier, there will be loads of hats

Not to mention since there is an appetizer crate, there's probably gonna be other courses of dinner crates.

Ventus is a great looking map but it needs some work in terms of wave layout before it can be added. It has a lot of potential but as it stands now the way bots get to the final point is really bland and a bit buggy at times.
That being said I would love to see it get in in a more polished state.

the only thing that matters is gameplay changes at this point, such as map rebalances

I'm more excited for the bug patches and weapon fixes more than anything else.
As an engineer main, I will miss the exploit spots.

You can get there without sentry-jumping, so I don't think so.
The roof of point B might go though. It's only reachable with a sentry-jump or very tediously using a dispenser and a teleporter.

Not too many people know this but you can also get to the roof of point A but setting up there is incredibly hard since all of blu rushes A first and few go to defend it. If you can get a tele up there then the base comes together and a wrangler will do the rest.

I don't want to get my hopes up, but...damnit, it might be THE ONE.
So this will be a multi-day update?
:rainbows:
My pyrovision script is ready for those 2 new maps
[quote=the article]First off: this update is going to have a list of patch notes longer than a stalemate on Hydro.[/quote]
:suicide:
I love this blog post, it's great news that Valve is focusing on maps again with this update.
[QUOTE=Mexican;41327980]the second map says "3 point free for all" sounds like a new game mode to me[/QUOTE]
I've played Standin, it's not a new mode, just a slight variation of 5 point CP. There are only three points instead of 5, and the points are arranged differently. There is a center point, a left point and a right point, all three are about the same distance from your spawn. Your team need to have all three capped to win (though you can win if you have all three capped but the enemy is trying to cap your point). I've really enjoyed it the few times I've played it.
About the sentry spots, I think they'll not patch ALL the spots. I mean, they released new maps since the Engineer Update, and I see no reason to "fix" things on the maps that came out after it. I guess they'll just change the older maps.

Its probably going to be hell trying to delete the fixes I have when this update is released....

There are some spots on maps that I think are good spots to set up. The point of defending is to defend. And that means getting into places where it is hard for the other team to get past and destroy your defences, but to bad the TF2 team is going to block a lot of them off.
I think we're all missing a very important part of this blog post.

You see that Demoman?
It is not unlikely that this picture was taken from a round of nothing but Valve employees.
That means that someone at Valve that works on the TF2 team, who has access to every single one of the cosmetic items in the game, chooses to dress that way.
Simply shocking.
I think the sniper in the back with the razorback is the most interesting.
