Team Fortress 2 - Engineer Update page

[TheGameXXVII]

http://www.teamfortress.com/engineerupdate/

This page looks legit enough, it has a good design and its domain is the proper Team Fortress 2 site.

also, it features a log of the people who have recieved a Golden Wrench, randomly, of course.

this is either VALVe messing up and leaking the site, or they have released it but they have yet to update it.

BTW, i found the link on the TF2 Forums at this thread: http://forums.steampowered.com/forums/showthread.php?t=1341458

nah, thats just a counter for how many people have the Golden Wrench.

 

[Sephychu]

Countdown? That's counting how many people have the Golden Wrench.

It's at 24.

Only Probable?
Understatement, man!

you never know, VALVe are know trolls about things like these.

I'm going to wait until they give away about half, and then I'm crafting everything in my inventory.

looks fairly pointless... are the changes purely cosmetic?

pretty much, it is limited (i think) and it turns dead bodies into gold statues, and thats it.

 

[Volucer]

New shottie looks interesting.

Also, I don't really play enige, but I still want that wrench!

 

[TheGameXXVII]

it's official now, the Blog post has updated to start the update!

Trying to acces the blog post and the new weapon but it seems the valve servers all died , probably getting hammered pretty hard.

 

[TheYellowCellPhone]

All it does is tunr bodies into statues...

Not really worth getting, I'm not going to go into Team Fortress until the update rush dies down though.

Ah, I see the page is using the gun the Engineer had in the Mac update page.

OT: All the latest ones looked legit and its still pretty strange that Valve is giving out so many of those Golden Wrenches. Considering that the Wiki Page claimed Valve was only dropping five of them, but due to a glitch, more were released.

The wrench isn't an Engy unlock, it's supposed to just be (very) rare.

The Engy unlock is a shotgun that crits when the sentry is destroyed (for how long is dependent on how many people the sentry killed), but has %50 less clip size.

 

[TheGameXXVII]

First Weapon: Frontier Justice
replaces the Shotgun.
X 50% Smaller Magazine
X No Random Crits

>Instead gets "Revenge Crits"
> Engineers get 2 Crits from each kill their sentry racked up before destruction, and 1 for assists
> When Engineers sentry is destroyed (either through enemy action or self destruction), the Engineer recieves Bonus Crits from Frontier Justice.

 

[Sephychu]

Frontier Justice. I WANT THIS.

Damn engie update, come out already.
