Team Fortress 2's long-awaited Engineer class update is "coming soon," developer Valve Software has revealed with a teaser trailer.

From the Medic update of April 2008 through to the recent joint 'War' update for the Soldier and Demoman, Valve has delivered new weapons and achievements to all classes bar the industrious engineer, who has evidently been toiling away all this time.

Meanwhile, Valve continues to decorate players for their veterancy, adding a new platinum 'Primeval Warrior' badge for those who have been playing since the beta.

Too bad my computer was grilled at the time and it was only enough for Silver.

  Having played since beta, and spread my time over two different accounts, for a total of something like 500 hours... I can honestly say I couldn't care less how many "pieces of flair" they add to the game. It's all make-up on a corpse.

      I got a Silver and have been playing for over 500. And I stopped playing for about a year.

    The only downside I find to TF2 is that after playing it (700 hrs and counting)- most other games are just shite in comparison.. Gold medal for me thanks to the update ... nice...

      I completely agree with you. Every other FPS fails in comparison to the variety, challenge and competition. And the pure funness factor.
