Valve has revealed it is working on at least two new updates for Team Fortress 2.In an interview with CommunityFortress.com, Valve’s Robin Walker revealed that the dev team is working on new updates for the game.“We’ve still got lots of ideas for what we could do with TF2, but in the short term we’ll continue to do what we’ve done up until now: not plan too far ahead, so we can remain fluid and reactive to the feedback we get from players,” said Walker.“We already have a couple of large updates in the works that aren’t tied to a specific class, so we’ll see what you think of those.”Walker also commented on community criticism of the random drop system introduced in the Sniper vs Spy update.“I think we’ve learned that the random drop system is only good for some types of things, like the rare cosmetic hats,” he said.“It’s good for delivering items to newer players over time, so they’re not swamped with choices when they’re starting out, and they’re not required to grind achievements to get them once they reach the point where they want to start making strategic choices. For competitive players, it’s obviously a bad way to deliver items.“At the very least, future packs will allow you to use achievements to get the new items, but we might move to a mode where we just give them to you.”
