Team Fortress 2 kicks off 'Love and War' update
The countdown clock for Team Fortress 2 was leading to the "Love and War" update. The first day showed off some new taunts, but the real star is a lengthy animated short.
The Team Fortress 2 countdown ended last night, revealing a new Love and War update. The first day revealed some new taunts and achievements to go with them, but the real star is the lengthy animated short.
It centers on a lovelorn red Scout pursuing Ms. Pauling, the apparent fixer of the TF2 universe. More updates are bound to come throughout the rest of the week, but for now you can just enjoy kicking back with a cartoon.

I've given up and don't really care anymore. If it was 5 years ago, I'd have bought it immediately or even pre-ordered it. Now though, I'll just wait until it's $5 since there are better games, better gameplay, and better stories than this series. It was a fun game at the time, but they let it drag on too long by focusing on different games and their sequels.

Don't act like this is something new for Valve, most of their sequels have taken 5-10 years to be released. Think about this TF2 took 8 years to make after all the false starts from updating the engine to art style. Half-Life 2 came out 6 years after the original Half-life. I am pretty sure they will substantially upgrade the engine like what they did for Half-Life2 before releasing a sequel.

The weapon thing wasn't too bad initially - most of the sidegrades didn't impact how the class was played, or played against. Now there are weapons that drastically impact how you would play against a class, which cannot tell from their silhouette. The primary example is the heavy mini-gun that has no wind-up time.

Oh, I don't agree with this at all. Stock weapons never stopped being the standard and arguably the best weapons. And that heavy minigun (Tomislav) has 10% faster spinup, at a pretty drastic damage cost. It's not anything you need to plan against.
If anything, Valve is doing you a favor by enticing people into playing these gimmicky, hard to master sidegrades.
