engineer would be cool, depending on what they do with him. other than that i'd like to see a soldier update. the new classless 'hat' update seems fairly pointless to me though!

Hasn't the engineer already gotten an update of sorts? Someone in the game was talking about one of the things the engineer can build wasn't originally in tf2 when it came out.

Soldier is the one I'm most interested in, though I suspect that a new rocket launcher will include a larger blast radius at reduced damage.

Engineers are slow and boring to play. Everything takes ages to build, and there's nothing you can do after plopping down your stuff except wank with your wrench behind a sentry, which makes no difference between a great and mediocre engineer. They are in dire need of an update that makes them a more active, mobile and reactive (even if still defensive) class.

I'd like to see Soldier's update, too, but they are one of the most solid classes in the game already.

I've had many a discussion on what they could possibly do to update the Demoman without becoming unbalanced. We haven't been able to come up with anything so I'm curious as to what Valve has planned.

Soldier is the only class ingame that requires some form of skill next to the spy, and an update just might ruin that. On the other hand, I foresee;

Remote Controlled Rockets
Rockets that dont damage you as you R-Jump
Flame Rockets (like the pyro had in the original)
Rofl, and I play soldier at a competetive clan level, all classes require skill, if you think otherwise you just have no idea about the game.

I want the Soldier update but all I really want is that the rockets do less damage to you in close range combat and when rocket jumping. Engineer update on the other hand would ruin public games for a few weeks or so :(

PS Engineer is getting a wrench that builds level one objects extremely fast, sgs/dispensers etc, but can't upgrade them. It's in the beta atm, same as heavy being able to go pyro speed with melee out.

screw those three. make the spy GOOD again.
Huh? The spy's still awesome. Though there are tons of people that don't know how to properly use him.

I'm interested in seeing what can happen to the engie. Though I haven't got a clue what they can do to the soldier.

i hope they do all three classes at once, cause i noticed after the spy vs sniper update everyone was playing those two classes, can you imagine if everyone was playing soldier, or demoman, engineer is okay, but those two are so explosive.

I hope to see a mortar or something like that for the soldier. I'd like to have timed explosives and proximity bombs as well for the demoman.

Personally I'm rooting for Engineer. Demoman and Engineer are my two most played classes, but I'm not hoping for demoman right now. Remember fighting the teams of snipers and spies when the last update came out? That was easy to counter. But a team full of demoman? I fear for my sentry. :(

Engineers. That way when the update comes they're wont be as much spam from a class like with pyros and scout.
You're kidding right? Thats what I thought about the medic update but then I still played on matches with 13 medics on each team.

I remember that, was great fun being a heavy those days. :D

Anyway, I still think this update is a class update in "disguise", as I think Valve is using the word "classless" as in "tasteless" or "having no class". That's the theory I have from all the secret blog pages anyway. Maybe Demoman, as I would say he is the least "classy" of the 3 remaining classes. Or the engineer, seeing as there are a lot of mechanical stuff mentioned in the secret pages.

Hopefully the Engie one is next; there's a lot more potential in that (as the engie not only has weapons to modify, but also 4 types of buildings), and the Soldier and Demoman updates will inevitably trigger an angry riot from "hardcore" gamers.

And I'm not going to care one bit about the recent "hat update" until I finally get a single freakin' hat. Seriously; I've gotten all the weapons at least twice, more than a dozen Dead Ringers and countless KGB's, but still no hats...this is getting silly.
