I don't think they will either, but you can never say never.

Valve themselves have said they wont be charging for content. They pride themselves on providing free enhancements to their games and dont belive in Micro Transactions.

doesnt mean it wont happen, but makes it very unlikely. Valves promised "alternative way to get unlock weapons" that was suggsted to be micro transactions when first announced turned out to be the item drop method.

Can someone please copy the content of these pages to this thread so I can read them at work?

No problem, you may want to remove the img quote though as it's a massive picture....

Just thinking do they mean this update won't be relevant to any particular class or is it a play on words and the class they are updating just doesn't have any class.

Jeese guys its the first day of probubly 6 or 7 days of details on the update. This update isnt just 8 hats and a new map... theres pleanty more to come!
 
whats a hat? wheres the hats? have i missed something? everyones talking about hats? i dont have any hats....

considering how good TF2 was pre updates its amazing the amount of free content being pumped out. Valve are pioneers of PC gaming and deserve a pat on the back.
 
Im prob going to buy this tonight as part of the orange box, can anyone explain the "drops" to me? I have played on the free weekend before but don't know much about the game.

cheers

You... you don't have TF2? :O

Anyway, they aren't really drops, they just appear in your inventory randomly when you're playing. They aren't affected by anything like kills or deaths, or how long you've been on the server. Hats 'drop' a lot rarer than weapons.
 
Not yet no haha. I did enjoy the trial. Havn't had my new pc for long to be honest and been playing so many other games I just never got round to it. Still kicking myself for not buying it when it was 50% off.

Ah I understand, do you get them permanently or are they limited?

You get to keep them permanently, but there isn't enough inventory space to keep every single item, so eventually you will have to throw some away to get new stuff. There's a fair bit of a space though, 20 slots or something, so you can still keep a favourite combination for each character. As for drops, apparently it's something like every 2 or 10hrs of play, you get a chance at getting a random item. You don't get one every 10 hours, but if you are going to get one, that's when you'll get it. You can also get items by fulfilling the necessary number of achievements for each class.
 
And you can still get the weapons by completing certain numbers of the achievements for each class. The 'Milestone' achievements detail how many.
