I keep hearing that it's going to be released today (June 25th) but since this is Valve we're dealing with I'm not sure they can be trusted with the release of...well, anything.

No no it is confirmed that it will be released on June 25th, the decade however is not entirely nailed down yet.
These things... they take time :p

Exactly. I really don't understand how people keep getting worked up over and over again about all these tiny tid-bits of hints from Valve about stuff that may or may not even exist. They almost always come to nothing. There's obviously something going on right now, since the whole Adult Swim thing, but to jump to conclusions that it has to be Meet The Pyro is a bit premature. People should learn from experience and just wait to see how it all pans out.

Where's it confirmed for today?

Only just got back into TF2 so this is pretty good timing.

Didn't someone say it would be released at 3 pm? I'd assume it would mean 3 pm PDT, which means we're still 3 hours off.

Well, it was indicated that something was happening on Monday (there was a message from the pyro on the TF2 web site, and if you decoded it as morse code it spelled "Monday") and most people (including myself) assumed that meant Meet the Pyro was coming out today.

But it seems they are doing what they did with the Medic and doing a themed, multi-day update, and then on the final day releasing the video along with the best parts of the update. So, today is day one of Pyromania. [http://teamfortress.com/]

Of course we didn't see it today. If we had, people would get the false impression that Valve time doesn't exist. Oh Valve, you think of everything.

I wonder what is the big surprise they have been teasing for half a year. It is neither a hat nor a map they say.

I'm guessing it'll be released at the end of Day 3, because really, the video is what we're all looking forward to. :p They have to make us wait.

I have a question? Why weren't all these 'Meet the X' vids released the day the game came out or weeks/months before as promotion....Oh wait sorry.

This is Valve we're talking about here. If they only made bad games they'd be called 3D Realms...^^

I don't know how Valve are going to solve the gender problem :D Every answer will be a disappointment. Maybe they'll just troll us and do an almost reveal

I see what you did there.

My opinion on the subject is as follows: Valve will release whatever it is when they feel it is ready, don't rush them and be patient.

Ever since the first "Meet the" videos came out I was wondering just how the heck they're going to handle the Pyro.

My money's on a female reveal, paired with an option to play the pyro without the mask and with all-new in-game voice.

...

......

Yeah, they're probably gonna pull an almost-reveal and end the video by suddenly cutting to the outro music.

The rumor is that they're releasing Meet The Pyro on Monday.

Nobody ever said that it was THIS Monday, though...

It can't be a man, whatever the case that would be the worst, if there was all this fuss and it was just some guy. Same if they don't reveal or pretend to reveal. It could be an alien or a thing but I don't know if that would really be that cool.

So clearly Pyro=women is the true way, but so many people expect it, it'd be a more confirmation rather than a surprise or something nice, I think if they bundled it with the things you suggest, it might help. So even if it's not unexpected, it changes the game a little bit in a fun way
