Now THAT is awesome. Will definitely add some extra interest for players.

[Target]

so you now have to find blueprints instead of items or both Or can you spends hours randomly trying to combine a sticky gun, rocket launcher and mini-gun

[Bloo]

only to find out it somehow crafts a sandvich. Which just leaves more questions.

And now the soldier has a much more accurate rocket launcher!

A high precision version of the standard-issue rocket launcher, the Direct Hit has been engineered from the ground up for Soldiers who have mastered the art of shooting at their targets instead of vaguely near them. Those of you looking to deal splash damage, stop reading now: the Direct Hit has a 70% smaller blast radius than a traditional rocket launcher. But the rockets that come out of this thing move fast and hit hard: 80% faster and with 25% more destructive force. Best of all, for you real sharpshooters, the Direct Hit guarantees mini-crits on airborne targets.

[Mr.Big]

hmm, this is damn near exciting

[Calneon]

Can't wait to try that out, a weapon based on the skill of the player.

[Target]

Tbh the Demoman is never going to win teh war, because DE plays as demoman and never in the history of gaming has a team with DE on won anything

[D_K_Head]

hehe, too true.

So are we getting a server up for the weekend? (Which starts on... thursday...? I LIKE valve's idea of a weekend)

[Calneon]

It's actually really close now, demomen might just beat soldiers to the mark.

New weapons also released. Looks like Demoman's trusty 'nade launcher is not going anywhere, the sticky bomb launcher having two replacements with a new launcher more focussed on laying traps, and the chargin' targe. Soldier gets an awesome new pickaxe that does more damage the more health he is missing, and a rallying flag that gives mini-crits to anyone nearby.
