But if I just play demoman or engineer for hours, I still will get stuff, just because I spend time playing tf2, right?

[SHAD0Wdump]

Yup... eventually those updates will come and then you can start getting stuff for those classes as well.

[Nilocy]

Damn, 3 spys vs 3 scouts was awesome!

Yup... eventually those updates will come and then you can start getting stuff for those classes as well.

Speaking of which. Has Valve said what update they're doing next? I suspect demoman, then soldier, then engineer last.

[SHAD0Wdump]

Dunno...

But I just got my Ubersaw! Did it via the 'First do no Harm' achievement.

Was hard.

[ToonyMan]

You have just won TF2.

 Solder update had better give you an unlockable chainsaw. A melee weapon that does spy knife damage, and an alt attack which turns the chainsaw on and uses fuel to deal extra damage/crits.

[ToonyMan]

I want to swing around a leg of ham.  Death by meat!

[Zai]

I think I have all of the unlocks now. I got like...a 1/3 of them through random luck while playing (as in, not achievements). I think the last unique item I got was Jarate, and that was through an achievement.

While I hope the engineer gets an update first (since he's so boring to play right now), I agree that the soldier is quite lame in terms of weapons other than the rocket launcher.

[ToonyMan]

He's the simple grunt, he does simple things.  Like killing.  Killing is simple.

[The Doctor]

It's obvious!

He's the red spy! One of his weapons has to be called the Screaming Eagle.

[umiman]

Give him a homing missile launcher. And bulletproof shield. And dreadnaught armor.

[Duke 2.0]

 I'm maintaining a chainsaw resulting with a melee weapon with ammo sounds like something the TF2 devs would do.

 Then again, the TF2 devs have always surprised.

[umiman]

I doubt it will be a chainsaw. It has to fit with the soldier's war weapons theme. I doubt it will be an automatic rifle though... Huh... barbed wire? Sandbags? I can't think of anything.

The soldier doesn't have a worst enemy, so it won't be a weapon to counter that like the tribal shield thing for the sniper. His weakness would be his slow speed, low ammo count, and slow firing speed. Also his lackluster backup weapons. His strengths are his rocketjump and damage potential.

So... I'm guessing he'll get something that takes away his rocketjump and ups his speed.
