Well folks, if you haven’t been paying attention to TF2 and getting in on the special/not so special item drops you’ve really been missing out! Valve has declared this week to be Pyromania week! According to the official TF2 Blog the final short “Meet The Pyro” is less than three days away! Along with the update they seem to be introducing a new game mode for Team Fortress 2, called Doomsday?
Doomsday pits BLU against RED, with only one team getting the honor of transporting a suitcase nuke full of recalled Mann Co. Australium to American monkeynaut Poopy Joe’s rocket, so he can blast off and hunt down Soviet space chimp Vladimir Bananas. It’s the same spirit of competitive enterprise that stalled the moon landing by three years when Buzz Aldrin suplexed Neil Armstrong into a pile of folding chairs at Astromania ’69! Both teams will attempt to get the necessary fuel up a preposterously slow-moving elevator and into Poopy Joe’s Australium-powered rocket to the stars.
Also, with a new game mode comes new achievements! Let the achievement whoring begin! In the meantime, here’s a countdown clock.
