TF2’s Scout gets updated soon

TF2 fans have been feeling a bit left out since Left 4 Dead hit the scene. In the days before L4D, TF2 was Valve’s golden child. Any word about a class update sent bloggers into a frenzy of speculation. Well, the good days are back. On the official TF2 blog, Valve’s Robin Walker discusses when gamers can expect to see a new class upgrade.

According to Walker, the Scout update is only a few patches away. She writes: “We’ve got an update that should be out tomorrow with a bunch of bug & exploit fixes. Later this week we hope to have another update out that changes the way we store your unlockable items. You shouldn’t notice much difference, other than if you play on multiple computers we’ll now propagate your item choices. You can think of that update as the one that moves your inventory into the Steam Cloud. Once that’s out of the way, we’ll be able to ship the Scout pack.”

Recently my L4D crew has been getting a tad tired of the same four campaigns. When this update hits, we should be distracted until some new L4D maps to arrive.
