As Team Fortress 2 enthusiasts, we are always wondering what new plans and features the developers have in store for us next. Well this week
IGN got the chance to sit down with Valve's Robin Walker and Erik Johnson. The interview is a bit old, conducted in mid-February (not my fault I swear), so some of the information is out of date. However, on the whole the interview gives us a great look into what is in the works for release soon. Checkout a snippet below.
Robin Walker: Goldrush is looking like it'll come out along with the Medic achievements and unlockable weaponry. It's the first map in a new game mode we're calling "Payload", where the Blu team escorts a cart loaded with explosives into a Red base. The cart moves faster the more Blu players are near it, and contains a handy dispenser to heal and resupply them as they escort it. The Red team wins if they can keep the cart from reaching their base. Goldrush is also the first map where we've used the cinematic physics technology from Half-Life 2: Episode 2 in a multiplayer environment, and we're really happy with the results."
