The Team Fortress 2 team isn't quite yet ready to reveal what changes are in store for the game's Sniper class, on deck to receive new unlockables, but it's quite ready to tease those additions.

Thankfully, it doesn't sound like Valve will go ahead with its April Fool's Day plans to add jars of Sniper piss as a weapon, but do something almost as unexpected. Robin Walker writes on the official TF2 blog what the update plans to address with the Sniper class, which may bring the rifleman a little closer to his targets.

PS3 - Team Fortress 2 - New Intel On Upcoming Team Fortress 2 Updates

Greg Cherlin of the Official Team Fortress 2 Blog writes:

"It's been a couple of weeks since we posted, so we thought it'd be good to do some housekeeping. The next class pack will focus on the Sniper. It's actually shaping up to be the largest TF2 update yet, with multiple new maps and a bunch of gameplay tweaks. In addition, we've got another update in the works that should be done before the Sniper, and that one will include some new content for all classes."

Attached below are videos of skills and feats that were featured in the news update.

PS3 - Team Fortress 2 - Team Fortress 2: Meet the original Scout

Joystiq writes:

"Hopping into the Way Back Machine reminds us that Team Fortress 2 originally sported a traditional art style. One of the first classes to get a redesign was everyone's favorite Boston southie, the Scout. Although concept artist Dhabih Eng promised to harm people if the original concept art for the Scout was ever released, Valve has nevertheless added the art to its blog. From a military look (as seen above) to a track-suit wearing delivery boy, the Scout has seen his fair share of edits. Those of you interested in the evolution of Team Fortress 2's Scout should check out Valve's blog."

Eagle eyed players of the Left 4 Dead demo have discovered some interesting information on the back of cereal boxes in the game.
