Awesome we're getting a new environment.Capndrake said:On the Valve forums some guy asked Robin Walker about new environments, and he answered that "two of the maps we're working on have a new environment". So that's at least 2 more upcoming maps
yeah, definitely looking forward to goldrush but was somewhat disappointed with the lack of variety in environments. my younger brothers who dont play tf2 often get the maps mixed up... e.g goldrush looking like dustbowl. would definitely like to see some maps with themes outside of the usual mining/industrial/dusty/warehouses one
oh and that i can't play tf2 just as the update is about to hit :_(

what do you want? Anything else would be betraying the theme of TF2 they got going.
Who the hell cares what your little brother thinks.
You want jungle? Arctic? Circus? Leave that to the fan mapmakers

Sure, red and blu could definitely fight over a frozen dock ; the team defending is trying to microwave the dock to allow their ships out, the attacking team is trying to stop them . Jungle would also make plenty of sense, just think of how awesome leafy trees would look with TF2's style.Zyzyxxz said:

Was gonna reread their interview to see what they said about future environments, and search brought up an article stating it had been released. Had me all excited.

A red spy, disguised as a red heavy, can now capture CPs. If you press - on the disguise menu you can disguise yourself as your own team.Jacobi said:
