Vasili already made a thread sorta, but it was just GMod screenshots. So I'll take the hand at making the thread for safe updating and stuff. As we all know, there's a war going on, blah blah blah, okay we all know that.

Take the side of the Demoman or the Soldier, whichever you think deserves to win a mysterious but obviously grand prize of a 4th unlock, while the other class gets no 4th unlock. I have taken the side of the Demoman because I believe his unlock may be of more interesting use on him than the Soldier.

Valve has made a big comic series to go along with this update in terms of story. You actually see the Announcer and her assistant Ms. Pauling at work while the Announcer finds out the Blu Soldier and Red Demoman have been best friends for nearly 5 months. The Announcer is mad and wants to stop them using a healthy competition.

And that's all for now! Please no flaming about which class you think is better.

It's great to kill all of the people trying to kill each other as a Sniper, I can get like a 50 kill streak untill they actually realise that there are enemies other than the Demo and the Soldier.

Now i like the idea of these new weapons, it will make more people want to play as demoman, especially the charge in targe.

Well, this soldier rpg sucks. Only thing I ever use soldier for really is to peek around corners and take out sentries. Plus has I crappy aiming abilities. Looks like a pass for me, but I'll probably try it out once or so. Just how much faster is 80%?

EDIT: I can't say it sucks, but I am piss poor at using the normal RPG, so this will make it worse on myself.

Updated OP.

And Turkey, the Demomen just ALMOST took the lead yesturday, at this point just about anyone can be the winner.

I think it's going to end up being a tie, even though I think the Demo deserves a new weapon because his aren't that good.

I... I thought the war ended with the Soldier winning already, Dood. Though... Though I could've misread it?

It says in the post that they are still counting up the numbers and will announce the winner when the update comes out? Can't you guys read?
Who hasn't seen it?

I'm one who tends to skim through stuff and read thoroughly if time permits. Sorry XD.

Ok so here's what's on my interested/kind of interested list: Eyelander + Chargin' Targe, The Direct Hit, and The Equalizer.

Reason I don't want The Scottish Resistance: Due to my playing style, I never bothered with laying traps, although I will try this if I make an effort to use sticky bombs next time I use Demo.

Reason I don't want The Buff Banner: I'd rather keep the shotgun. I loooove shotguns :3

But to be fully honest, This update isn't too major in my book. I'm waiting for an Engie update and that's all :P

Well it's official. Soldiers won the war. Oorah!
