TF2 Sniper Update

Cant view the site at work, blimmin websence... but this does sound cool. It looks like an interesting alternaitve. The curent sniper riffle has the same crit on headshots action, bust as said, the tradeoff seems to be to have faster charge to 100% than the sniper riffle, but with probubly much less zoom. It should also mean the sniper becomes more usefull in those levels where there arent long distances to zoom in accross.

any news on the other unlocks? and when is this comming?
 
Going to buy orange box at the weekend, new internet connection (for this house) and L4D and TF2 = wasted weekend :D

Don't think my lass is going to like me much haha.

Wow the valve forums have gone nuts! Had a look through when I saw the new bow to see if there was any info regarding the rest of the update pack. Sadly, it was very difficult to decipher meaningful information among the ridiculous amounts of lols. Never have I seen an acronyn so over used and abused.

What time each day does the new info get posted?
 
Day 2 is up. New map (Pipeline) and New Game Mode (Gladiatorial Cart Combat) basically two carts, one for each team, in a side by side race up a hill.

Plus 2 more Arena maps.

Sawmill
"Set in a stormy mountain sawmill, this arena map has its cap point in a large structure atop a hill in the center of the map; beneath which lies a hidden underground spytech base; and above which, pouring down on everything we just mentioned, is rain—the first weather effect to appear in a TF map. If that previous sentence wasn’t long enough for you, replace the period with a comma and add this next part: players must ALSO watch out for the two deadly saw blades near the cap, which were left on when the previous occupants abandoned it for a less deadly, hilly, rain-swamped sawmill not built on a spybase."

Nucleus
"A diabolical doomsday device is the foundation of this circular arena map, which features long sightlines and a bottomless radioactive pit underneath most of the game area. The cap, located in the center of the arena, is only accessible by catwalks suspended over a chasm, which open after the timer has run down."
