next class might be a bit delayed

[sokO]

Theres definitely separate teams working on each game. One DLC announcement doesn't mean a push back for other games

False.

Listen to the developer commentaries and you will notice that almost all of the people are the same from TF2 and L4D.

Though another L4D campaign would be nice, I would defintely prefer another class update for TF2.

On the same page as sokO here. They share the same devs a lot of time and it was even noted in one TF2 blog (I'd have to go pull it up, might later) that the TF2 team would be helping prep L4D for launch and it might delay an update.

L4D2 alone was bad news for TF2 players.

Turtle rock studios yo! Seriously, there is a totally seperate studio for it, so it'll be the same time as always. Valve time of course...

 

[Retribution]

Im sure they have a seperate developers team for l4d so idk about the update being delayed....come to think of it...how can it be delayed when a release date hasent even been announced??

valve will find a way

Honestly, I have grown bored of L4D, as I have with EVERY OTHER zombie game, except PvsZ.

Ah, gotta love "Bloom and Doom" seed company.

But it's true. L4D will be stale as long as they only have 5 weapons, 4 people, and unidirectional maps (regardless of how the precious A.I. director changes each game).

Not a new class, a new class update.

Actually there is an easter egg on one of the L4D maps and it says ?TF industries Bubble head Pack, incudes: 4 out of 10 bubble heads and collectors edition poster?

It says 10 bubble heads when there are only 9 classes so that may be a hint.

L4D2 is coming and with this "other update slows other down" logic next class update will come in late 2010

I like L4D, but Tf2 is better. I want the new class update! So do most of the tf2 peeps.

Turtlerock studious were the original developers of the game then they got bought by valve. Now they are both developed from Valve Software.

Sorry, they did borrow some when making L4d and it did delay the update. I don't see them borrowing tf2 members to make the DLC though, it's not a whole new game.

Look at bills guns, looks like were getting new gun too, seems like an MP5.

If you look at any of the other posters that have come out so far, there are several guns that aren't in the game. Doubtful they'd add a new gun. The 5 they have in there pretty much cover the basic gambit of weaponry. Its L4D not CSS.
