HAH.

Nice one, really. There's also a Flash version here, with better quality.

Seems like Valve wasn't lying about those promised DLC (or simply they wanted the world to stop whining about L4D 2 a bit).

Anyway, the new DLC will consist in a new map, that will be supposed to last 30 minutes - it's not clear if it's referred to the versus or the coop version.
According to the ufficial announcement, the spawn system will be adjusted to the pace of the new map, but, again, it's not clear how Valve wants to handle this.

I guess we'll have to wait and see.

Team Fortress sounds + failed stunts video = WIN!

But seriously, this is brilliant, and well done too.

Team Fortress 2 devs sure know how to keep the buzz up. First we get the announcement of a new Sniper Update, then the UI is patched to support future items, and now all this RPG stuff.

After the mentioned update, the internets went all crazy because of kotaku saying that the new features would make our TF2 look a lot more like the classic RPG Series Diablo, using items to differentiate the player's skills.

Then, an impressive Garry's mod mock up was made here, and the minds of the TF2 fans flew higher and higher...

Latest news is the devs have gone so far, that they included little traces in the code of the last update:

//—-—-—-—-—-—-—-—-—-—-—-—-—-—-—-—-—-—-—-—-—-—-—-—-—-—-—-—-—--
// TF2 MMO
"TF_MMO_LFG" "Looking For Group"
"TF_MMO_Quest1" "You must kill %s1 %s2 to complete this quest."
"TF_MMO_Monster1" "Boars"
"TF_MMO_Monster2" "Rats"
"TF_MMO_Monster3" "Bats"
"TF_MMO_Monster4" "Wolves"
"TF_MMO_Monster5" "Spiders"

Wouldn't it be amazing to see a MMORPG with the looks of TF2?
