Team Fortress 2 Teams Up With Rift
Posted by: Yourcatch22 | Saturday 5 February 2011
The Team Fortress 2 team has setup yet another cross promotional event, this time with the all new MMO, Rift. Players who pre-order it by March 1st will instantly receive two new melee items, the Sun on a Stick for the scout and a Sharpened Volcano Fragment for the Pyro. In return players in Rift who complete the Riftwar achievement in TF2 will recieve a Well Spun Hat.
The Sharpened Volcano Fragment is an axe replacement which does 20% less damage than the stock axe but sets victims on fire for an extended period of time, and cannot be put out by medipacks or a being healed by a medic. The Sun on a Stick on the other hand does 35% more damage than the stock bat, but only to burning players or buildings. Anyone not already on fire will take 45% less damage than normal. Rest assured that both items are fully giftable and tradeable and once the promotional period ends will have crafting recipes added.
For more information on how to get your hands on these brand new items, head on over to the From Hell Cross Promotional Page.

Posted by: Yourcatch22 | Sunday 23 January 2011
TF2Maps.net has announced it is holding its first annual Asymmetry Map Contest, a third party developer contest open to the general public.

As always, spoils for the champions. There will be First, second and third places for both categories of maps.

Double Drop Rate Weekend
Posted by: Yourcatch22 | Friday 24 December 2010
In the giving spirit of the holidays, the Team Fortress team (or more specifically The Administrator) has announced that starting December 23rd and continuing through the 30th, the rate at which items drop will be doubled. This should keep the battlefield extra lively for the upcoming week.
For those of you with more beard on your necks than sense in your heads -- those of you who feel compelled to analyze my every word with the exacting scrutiny of the socially disenfranchised -- I will provide the tedious technical details. From December 23rd to December 30th, a period of exactly one week, the rate at which items drop will be doubled. You might call this a "Double Drop Rate Week," but I call it an act of mercy. After all, we can't very well send you charging into battle without a proper gun now can we?

The Australian Christmas Update
Posted by: Yourcatch22 | Sunday 19 December 2010
The fans wanted it, and now they got it: it's a Team Fortress 2 Australian Christmas Update! The update, which kicked off this week, is interestingly based in medieval times and features all new weapons, headgear , and a brand map & game mode called Medieval Mode. In this map players compete for control points with melee weapons only, making for a bloody old school battle previously unseen in TF2 game play.
Oh and don't forget to get into the Christmas spirit by donating to the lowly and far under appreciated community map developers. This week, the Mann Co. store is giving players the ability to make a small donation that will be given to community map makers by purchasing a collectible stamp. Donors will also get an exclusive hat which resembles something out of Master and Commander.
As always, to get the latest Team Fortress 2 update simply restart your Steam Client and let the update run its course. Enjoy!
