After setting a new standard for Lack of Class in an FPS with the addition of Jarate (the jar-based Karate), we've raised the bar on lowering the tone even further with the first ever Classless Update!

So far;

18 new hats.

By posting nothing!

I'm placing my bet that the next two maps will be CP_BLOODSTAINED and pl_halfacre.

How did you find those?

They were posted on the Steam forums, however what is apparently happening is this page is working like the sniper/spy update. It changes on every refresh between multiple versions, but the changes are not visible. Instead, certain parts become links to sub-pages. Where Valve can taunt us.

I SAID THERE WERE HIDDEN PAGES, DIDN'T I SKILLERS, HUH HUH DIDN'T I!

EDIT: There are also numerous Soldier references, along with the first thing clearly being about killing people and TAKING THEIR HATS OFF THEM
EDIT2:
"The Fist Fight Theory"
Soldier update hinted at bottom right

I know these have been posted several times before but in case you STILL haven't seen them

We've seen the camera beard before, and surely the "Bonk Helm" is one of those hats with straws :L

Also, some people are thinking that there will be duels, or something or...who gives a shit, we'll find out soon

I expect it will be if you go into melee combat with them.

Lets hope they don't introduce 'combat instances' where you go into combat with another player, and no one else can interfere whilst you dual it out with your different level weapons.

Also, note the Zeppelins.

A reference to balloon race?

"Broad-Swords, Musket-Gonnes & Domesday Weaponry"

A sign of things to come?

Lord Metritutus · Wed Aug 12, 2009 10:13 am

I suspect we may end up with additional weak melee weapons for each class that can steal hats of the person killed with them.

Or maybe this

It was RED SOLDIER, not the soldier. The Soldier posts on TF2maps.net and appears to be official.

So do lots of fake things

And there's 21 "hats" there, though 3 are hatless.

He's getting reputation from posts we can't see (as in posted in hidden sections) from what I can recall. So is the announcer user I believe.

I think it's the solider update.

He has a point.

I think it's best not to assume anything when it comes to Valve, at this point.

Skillers · Wed Aug 12, 2009 7:05 pm

I don't think they'll change to a class update.

Well if you listened to the commentary in tf2, you would have heard that the solider was a general all round class. Not filling in any specific role, unlike the others classes.

Anyway this is just my prediction, and my last 4 about the updates have been correct

to see these feats of magic look around some terrible website.

DHR-107 · Wed Aug 12, 2009 7:36 pm

But classLESS. LESS. generally mean's there is no class involved?

I was right about a lot of Brawl content, doesn't make me some sort of predictor of the future, it just made sense
