It’s getting closer and closer until update release day and to commerate it Valve have announced a free weekend of Team Fortress 2 starting Thursday night when the update goes live.
Meanwhile the gap between demomen and soldiers is getting slimmer with about 100,000 kills between them and a shiny new weapon of mass destruction.
Regardless of the exclusive seventh weapon the soldier is set to receive the “Direct Hit”, a rocket launcher that promotes aiming at the enemy as opposed to the floor beneath their feet.
It has a 70% smaller blast radius than the standard rocket launcher stopping splash damagers but now does 25% more explosive damage upon hit as well as the rockets travelling 80% faster.
As an added bonus hitting any airbourne target guarantees a mini crit. Good news for sharpshooters then.
