A classless update? So is that no new weapons? Or new weapons for all!?

There'll be more to this update than just hats. The TF2 team is gold, unlike a certain other Valve team. >_>

Its a hat update, apparently.
My opinion on the update? "Meh."
I won't complain though.
and great, another beautiful map that I probably will never play, since I don't play arena.

So this is the big beta, eh? I've been following it on the Steam forums before it went official. There's lots of goodies to be had ahead!
Fascinating that the spy gets a bowler hat, because someone actually released a bowler hat model for the fedora on FPSB a long time ago.
It's more than just hats, people. There's a shitload of changes that are going to take place, and that includes new weapons.

I've been on top of the beta, along with making sure it's all legit by talking with a friend / team who's in the beta.
Really exciting. I doubt this update is the changes from beta, though.

It's more than just hats, people.It's Day 1 that failed to impress. Hats are nearly impossible to get for the casual player, while arena mode is just boring.

Yeah.... Haven't gotten a hat yet, but the last 5 weapons I got have been flare guns and huntsmans.... I wish you get different stuff each time 
anyway, today I'm gonna start playing as pyro. My least played class. I gave about 6 hours as engie, and 4.5 as sniper. Maybe 1 or so as soldier... Idk
i did see a heavy with a football (American) helmet. Looked quite silly.

This certainly makes things more interesting.
I notice how Valve are emphasizing on the on how TF2 updates are "FREE!" Could this be their answer to the L4D2 boycott?

I like the idea of having KOTH added to TF2, but am I the only one that thinks that there's starting to be too many different game modes? TC, 5-point CP, attack/defend CP, CTF, PL, PLR, Arena, and KoTH.
I mean they just introduced payload race, and they're already crowding it out with 3 KoTH maps right off the bat.

Snow map looks rather nice.
EDIT: @WC: You can never have enough variety. Don't like one game mode? Don't play it. This way you have some choices, and gameplay doesn't get repetitive.

Yeah. Never complain if you're getting to choose how you play a game.
Map looks really nice. I wonder if the snow mounds on the roofs are models or just really small displacements.

This way you have some choices, and gameplay doesn't get repetitive.That's cool and everything, but it also limits choices with maps that cater to your favorite game mode. For half a year Goldrush was the only payload map. And it's mad fun, but you can only play it so many times.
I'm sure KoTH will be fun, and I'll probably play a lot of it. But before KoTH was introduced, there were still 7 very different game mode choices. You'd be hard pressed not to find a lot of game modes that you like out of 7.

If we end up with some 3-point CP, PL and PLR maps done in both the snow and the lumberyard themes, I will explode from excessive awesomeness.

I play on a stock map rotation, through all game modes (except arena) gives a good variety.
My favorite server better add some Koth into their rotation list

As good as CTF is, I feel like Valve got it a little wrong in TF2. Not being able to return an enemies intel to his base is disappointing.
Maybe I'm just too used to good old UT/UT2004 CTF.

Wow, loads of changes. I think my favourite is:

Yukon is easily one of the best CP maps the game has to offer. Actually makes symmetrical CP seem really good fun again.
KOTH is also really enjoyable, though it is an absolute bloodbath with too many people...
Viaduct looks fantastic but the gameplay is pretty rough and the snow hits my FPS like crazy. Once a team gets on top and sets up a couple sentries there's just no way to stop them. Regardless, it's still relatively fun.
Overall probably one of the best TF2 updates yet, I really am pleased. Now all I want is a hat. ANY hat. I have absolutely none whatsoever.
edit: oh shit, forgot about ctf sawmill... will have to try it out

bullshit, ctf_sawmill is absolute shit. valve decided to block off two side routes with is fair enough but they left it as a dead end which is just stupid. add to that the intelligence room which is really small and narrow that a couple sentries makes shit nearly impossible and you begin to realise that valve cannot make a reasonable ctf map to save their lives.
on the flipside, the new arena map offblast is actually really good and probably the best arena map available. still not a huge fan of the game mode but it's getting a little better with new maps.

Well, that answers that.
Edit; You know what? CTF is a deathmatch, screw-around game mode anyway.
