Man, I'm tired of being right.
Just don't buy anything from their game anymore, I just know I'm done with hats and unusuals.
when the rest of the world wakes up there’s gonna be a shitstorm
Man... Valve is not going to see a very positive reception after that backpedal...
I mean, come on, they HAD to know what wording like that on the TF2 BLOG, which is so seldom used for anything anymore, would stir in a community as starved as this one, right?
They HAD to know this would reverb back and forth because they actually announced an approaching update as though it were something special. Had they not said anything people would have just been expecting the usual, and if they had more carefully worded from the beginning people would have just pictured something like Blue Moon, but a bit bigger, perhaps. This update could still be something of a breath of fresh air, but they've now cemented a bad taste in everyone's mouths, and possibly just snapped that last straw for many seeing this as them toying with a criminally under-served community for a game still making them boat-loads of money.
How do you screw up promoting an update THIS fucking badly? Even though I doubt it was the intention, this felt like a spit to the face from them, building excitement just to silently dial it back for plausibly deniability after using your desperate playerbase to drum up hype for what appeared to be a full-on update.
What the actual shit is wrong is Valve?
Massive love hate relationship with valve here. We all love the amazing things they've created for the gaming community in general, But would it REALLY hurt to update this fucking game from 2007 ONCE?
We are the biggest Stockholm Syndrome of a community and it really shows, I hope that there’s an actual update, I’m skeptical and optimistic
My man, Warhammer.
World of warcraft league of legends there is plenty worse cases

Hey guys

Mother 3 fans on the other hand..
That would be Porkymon Fans.
strange dragon's fury please
And let us add more Warpaints to it as well!
We need more strange variants of reskins
More Strangifiers!
Dragon's Fury strangifier* please. I really like my Dragon Slayer Dragon's Fury, but it would be so much nicer if it was strange too.
If they add a strange dragons fury i will quite literally ejaculate all over my monitor
Maybe they were trying to make a "After 9 years of development, hopefully it will be worth the wait" joke.
They got 2 thirds of the way there but pussy out at the last second
I'd be anrgy for a good year then spend the next years of my life laughing at what sort of madlads valve were for pulling the troll of the century
@@amienabled6665 worth the weight heavy update
@@mrrooter601 "We are proud to announce, that the next major content update for Team Fortress 2 will be worth it's weight in gold, and definitely worth the wait. We bring you; the Heavy Update!"
@@mrrooter601 holy shit you’re a genius
Until it comes out I'm expecting A slightly larger Blue Moon Update. I'm not expecting Decoarted weapons, new weapons, or new modes at all. Only when it comes out will I gush about that. It'll have new maps, weapons changes, and cosmectics/skins and until I'm surprised that's what I'm expecting.
worst case scenario: blue moon with maps instead of rebalances
Best case scenario: valve making another muti-day update with meaningful content like weapon fixes
maybe it would be called the Red Sun Update.
(sorry just kidding, that was a MMBN4 joke)
I'm personally expecting a somewhat smaller but still "major" update; new maps, two to three weapons, and weapon changes. So something on the scale of Tough Break or what we ended up actually getting for End of the Line.
@@Hanakooh What is "MMBN4"? The only "Red Sun" I can think of is a song from Metal Gear Rising.
At this point I don't care about new weapons that much, just fix the ones that have been shit for half a decade now.
My mind's telling me to not get overhyped.
But my body
my body's telling me to SCREAM in joy.
i jumped around and made monkey noises like the mental defective i am
@@RayanfhoulaBR Retvrn to Monke (Demoman)
This perfectly summarises my feelings when I found out about this.
"My mind is telling me no.
But my body.
My body is telling me yeah"
Hearing this news made me die, revive, die, and become an archangel in less than 0.00006754 milliseconds. Christ almighty this is big.
Now is a better time than ever to vote for the cosmetics you want to see in-game.
frontburner is definitely my most wanted right now, too good
Oddly. I been doing that when I am bored or free . Been doing it for weeks. Maybe i had feeling about getting an update (or it just luck )
for an update people think are coming but isn't. They changed the blog post, now it says "holiday-sized update".
when you opened the video with the phrase "i think valve got hacked" i nearly lost it cause this post got me excited and itd be a real shame if it was just a troll hacker
and just like that they edited the blogpost.
people shat on me for "being negative". look who's laughing now?
Well they at least confirmed community fixes so there's that I guess
get ready for "idc its still an update!!!!!!"
I don’t think anyone is laughing now, other then Valve of course.
I aint laughing. I’m a mix between sadness and universe ending rage
This has to be something at least bigger than what we usually get, why would they even bother with a blog post if it was? Hoping this is the start of bigger and better things for the game
Because workshoppers, mapmakers etc. noticed how Valve only picks holiday stuff so they started pumping out those. This blogpost serves as an announcement to them that 'hey, make some non holiday shit again, we might actually pick it!'
It is bigger than what we usually get for a summer update.
Not only that, but they also hinted that this update is going to have a theme. Small updates (bar the seasonal ones) usually don't have a theme to them.
@@Ekid Those are practically the only updates we get lmao
Well they seemed to have changed their wording so idfk know what to expect now
It really took almost a year since the "we hear you" tweet, huh. Still I'm gonna stay moderately positive on this one since apparently is good enough to have it hyped with a blog post after years of inactivity. As the Gabe himself would say "hopefully it will have been worth the wait"
weapon balancing is gonna be a big positive tbh, some weapons are in meh spots right now
that is if they do weapon balancing. that's what i'm damn hoping since summer is quite a while away, they got time
It's only been 3 weeks
(valve time)
@@cralo2569 huge game changer if they actually balance out the weapons that need it. Really looking forward to that if it happens. Just hoping they don't bring some decent weapon to the ground making them unusable or unfun to play with/against
"i never really was on your side" Valve
If this update turns out to be a true major update, I hope that valve's next plan is either the heavy update or that they bring back scream fortress spells.
It’ll ruin the spells market if they returned spells, I’d say make a series two of spells so there would be new ones and spell owners won’t be screwed over.
@@Iciclefairy I'm okay with bring back the old spells, but I understand the argument against it. I honestly just really want to see them add the new spells that are already on the Workshop. Some of those are actually very nice, like the green "Matrix" inspired footprints and exorcism substitute.
Can people shut the fuck up about the heavy update, sorry not sorry, but it's just one big meme now, and it's obnoxious.
@@Mirthful_Midori agreed
TF2 community when Valve waves at them:
IT ALL RETURNS TO NOTHING
IT ALL KEEPS TUMBLING DOWN TUMBLING DOWN
TUMBLING DOWN
EVERYTHING THAT MATTERS TO ME MATTERS IN THIS WOOOOORRRLLLLD
I WISH
THAT I COULD TURN BACK TIME
CAUSE NOW THE GUILT IS ALL MINE
5:20 "they rejected his message, for he spoke the truth"
He even bears the Christ hair and beard...
wayback machine > they changed "update-sized" into "holiday-sized" AND "who knows what else?!" into "and other community-contributed fixes for the game!" my post was deleted on steam..
I could imagine all the broken things to come with the release, lol.
6 years. 6 years since Jungle Inferno
That won't be till October, but I agree it's been too long since we got a truly great update
Better to be cautiously optimistic than being pessimistic.
That's usually his shtick, so hearing that was a pleasant surprise.
@@iDarkLinkGraal I'm honestly not gonna expect much
Better for who?
@@bruschetta7711 For our sanity and the game’s longevity
at this point you guys should be apathetic idk why u guys keep hyping this game up when even the devs dont care
Petition to have valve add an unlock that swaps the minigun for a second sanvich/shotgun
Honestly, just letting Heavy rollout with Primary Shotgun & Lunchbox would be great to see for him get a new Subclass (but getting all-new weapons for Heavy & other classes would also be good to see)
Lmao, a primary as a shotgun and a secondary shotgun
Dule welding Sandvichs.
@@reagansido5823 provided Steak receives any meaningful buffs like better speed boost or no more taking Mini-Crits (ideally both), that would make Heavy a further force to be reckoned with
@@Gooby1024 also, I'd be interested to see the Shotguns get more play among those classes (Heavy, Engie, Soldier, Pyro), that could go a long way to provide more options for each
Those maps better be worth of another 4 years of replay value such as...
2fort
the fact that 2fort has wistood the test of time should tell you what kind of quality we expect
3 fort, the sequal
@@radicaljoedst1365 illegal, 4fort, take it or leave it
summer themed 2fort confirmed
You need to keep doing your thing, Zesty. YOURE the reason that valve started picking decent cosmetics. Your scrutiny of the workshop is why the good cosmetics got the traffic they did. Just keep doing your thing, maybe amp it up until this upcoming update comes.
It's gonna be just smissmass/scream fortress but in the summer is my prediction
From where I'm standing, either TF2 gets some meaningful changes, or there will be some backlash from them getting our hopes up that will at least be kind of entertaining to watch.
my teas gone cold i’m wondering why i got out of bed at all
do you need a hug
i just noticed that Zesty owns a Marisa fumo, the TF2 and Touhou community still are connected to this day
NO HYPING! NO MORE HYPING, the last thing we need to do is hype this up to become something it isn't. Keep everything in check and make sure no one goes off the deep end because we all know what will come from it.
Preach it brother, god knows this community is filled with weak willed manchilds that overreact way too much.
All I want is a new Mann co. Supply Crate-not cosmetic crates-that have new stranges, new strange parts, new strangifiers, etc. I really miss those.
Im clearly shooting over the moon but man I'm really hoping for some changes to Casual or the Server Browser
Enabling Valve servers in the server browser would be the absolute bare minimum but a HUGE help to the game
Respectfully salivating over your Bionicle collection 👀
I want more medieval mode maps. . .
But yet I'm still worried that we might see too many maps for team fortress 2
They need to be rotated in and out of the game like in csgo but it's valve we're talking about soooo
I was incredibly hyped and someone posted "I'm glad to see they're making the summer update like the Halloween and Smissmas updates" and it was the most depressing, sobering experience
Whatever its gonna be, the update better be called "Update Sized Update"
We bullied them into doing more than 2 cosmetic crates max. We did it everyone
Zesty what is your favorite Toa?? I gotta go with the Toa Metru personally. I think it was really cool seeing the past of the Turaga as the guardians of Metru Nui.
Lewa best boy
HE CAN'T KEEP GETTING AWAY WITH IT
pretty sure this was the result of a petition UEAKcrash held, since I'm fairly sure he has direct communications with valve
In the petition crash directly addressed the low quality of submissions (specifically maps), and how creators felt that their creativity was dried up because the only way to get things into the game were through holiday themed submissions, and how that left a large wealth of quality submissions on the table in favor of temporary, seasonal reskins. The "not necessarily summer-themed summer update" part is a confirmation of this. To me, this confirms that the low quality cosmetics that were added in the past were a result of valves choices, rather than the workshoppers themselves, as this petition was a direct result of their frustration with being forced to make wacky seasonal maps instead of what they actually wanted to make.
The blog post also stated a specific intent (non-holiday theme) and submission deadline (may 1st) for the update, which is completely unprecedented compared to previous seasonal updates. I don't expect it to be huge, but this update WILL be different, according to valve themselves.
Going into this with cautious optimism is the right idea, we've been burned and baited so much you'd think the community would've learned its lesson by now. It's been so long without a decent summer update my brain is short circuiting from this blog post. I have everything crossed that Valve actually delivers something jaw dropping this time, but of course we will have to see when it arrives.
Toxic Positivity is a blight in any community, having a voice like yours being heard is the countermeasure to said blight.
I hope it’s like the steam deck where everyone thinks it’s gonna be horrible but it’s actually alright
It feels like a transition for community made content updates
I am quite divided by this "Valve only taking community stuff" argument. People have been saying that Valve makes terrible or out of touch weapons/balance/items and should take suggestions and items directly from the Workshop. Now that they're doing JUST THAT, it's a problem?
5 bucks this is just a normal crate update but bigger.
I had a friend told me that *a tenth class is gonna be added in this update* with the most serious expression you could ever see on a man's face. Saying that people are blowing things out of proportion is a minimalistic expression of how fucking excited everyone suddenly got for the first piece of communication given to us for the first time in 5 years.
Probably gonna stay away from r/tf2 for a while
@@bruschetta7711 It's the best you can do, honestly, people are going nuts in there.
THE UPDATE! THE UPDATE IS REAL!
YES! FINALLY A UPDATE!
CAN WE GET MUCH HIGHER
Zestys lookin more like jesus with every passing facecam
Maybe I'm high on Copium, but maybe Valve is testing the waters? Seeing the reaction to this, they might gauge how future, bigger updates might do
I really hope that they do more non holiday updates after this one, and not just being a one time thing. Still awesome to see them doing at least something
My biggest concern is that this update may have similar problems to MCs mob votes, where big individuals in the TF2 scene could basically rally their followers into giving certain items that aren't needed, for example, since just about nobody actually plays heavy, I feel that weapons, cosmetics and perchance even actual stat changes may be left out and we will still be left with the stock/tom-vich-GRUs that have stuck around since 2012. Or God forbid sniper gets a buff/better weapon.
I am incredibly pessimistic about this, but who knows, maybe it isn't completely over (insert chudjak smiling at sunset)
This is my exact fear as well
I love how your bonkles are organized by year
Knew that Zesty was gonna talk about this but are you sure Valve wouldn't do something like this? I remember seeing a letter from the TF2 Community specifically map makers that was signed by people from the tf2 community before this was announced so idk but man if this is true this would be nice finally an different update.
If they do theme the update a part of me hopes it's (somewhat) themed around MvM as a nod to the bot problems, with maybe a new tour and additional fixes for the game mode
I wonder why did they even bother making a blog-post for a regular holiday update?
Just let it remain dead like it was instead of hyping the same crappy update which we've been getting since 5 years now.
Ikr simple trolling
I'm cautious too, but I long for the days 8 years ago when my mind was always racing with excitement to think of what valve might change next, buff or nerf weapons... I am not hopeful per say that this update will bring in some weapon rebalances to spice things up, if they don't I kinda saw it coming- but if they do IF THEY DO- That might singlehandedly rekindle my spark for playing TF2.
i just got the most excited about where they said welcome to the future with blog posting suggesting they will keep doing blog posts
I know it's off topic but I love your bionicle collection in the background.
I will say totally boned is my favorite out of the few you've shown. Yes I understand your "distaste", but still I feel its more tame out of the bunch you've shown. Still, I respect your opinion on it.
Best hopes I have right now is if its a on pair with the blue moon update or even just a box with some maps, fixes and MAYBE one or two weapon balance changes.
But I can't help cross my fingers and pray if its another major update like if its the Heavy Update. A Mann can Dream here
NGL when I first saw images of the blog post I legit thought it was a fake shitpost.
Nice to see thou, am cautiously optimistic.
It is amazing that they finally talk again. But I fully agree on your view on this as amazing as these news are I cannot help but also be worried about the content there will be added, hopefully it’s gonna be amazing and this will be a remembering update
*THE HEAVY UPDATE:*

> new cosmetic for demoman called the "fresh-breeze feeling," which removes all of his clothes & changes his ethnicity (Mexican for RED, japanese for BLU)
> The TF2 final comic has been completed, as well as cancelled. Nobody will be able to read it ever.

> inverted controls are forced now. Cope
> because this update requires ONE good thing to come from it, 2fort has been removed from the selectable map playlist, & quick-play has returned

> added !RtD/ to all Dustbowl matches

> all conscientious objectors now have MyLittlePony/furry Nazi hentai as their images by default. We don't expect this to change the game much.
> the real update was the friends we made along the way
They finally gave a raise to the janitor and the pot plant :D
Hey zesty you should make a video/ steam forum of suggestions for a update, your opinions arevery complete and quite aproved , make it simple for the one guy working on valve
5:23 Thank God that I'm not alone in interpreting this like that
I wonder if we'll get any rebalances
I hope they pick the weapon skins you showed up last time. It looked like an art.
Cant wait for my (hopfully) first major update ill be able to directly play in after 3000+ hours of playing this game since 2018
Same, the last and only update I got experience was when MvM dropped for the first time
When I need pessimistic tf2 takes I go to zesty
The house plant and the mexican janitor finally cracked the password and got a blog post out for us.
How's the update size update going for you guys?
I'm pretty impressed the sinful messiah David Koresh is so interested in one of my favorite video games.
time for voting on good stuff in workshop
fingers crossed that pamp's war paints get in
Very cautious, about the "update" mainly due to the Prospect of it being "good", hope it works out nicely.
What happened to tf3 on source 2
I think its less doubting and more erring on the side of caution, don't want to be disappointed
the way they're saying its prob gonna be a blue moon style update because if they felt like announcing it, like it was something worth bringing the old tf2 blogs for, i guess there's more out of the usual, but if not just new non season restricted maps is cool, maybe they will add popular old maps like pier or something new idk, we'll have to wait until it drops
One could say that this is a *heavy update.*
You're actually the best commentary TF2 youtuber
On an unrelated note, I love your Bionicle collection.
zesty i think you should host community maps with fans to find the best ones then make a video on telling us which ones to vote for to give them a boost so vavle sees them
could they maybe add new weapons that can get warpaints?
and allow certain weapons to be strange?
best thumbnail you've ever used on your channel
Thank you for your cautious optimism. It's what we need right now (and every time Valve announces anything...). People who expect too much are just setting themselves up for disappointment.
So, there will be no balance patches to make any of the 50 unplayably bad guns useable?
Or remove wallhacks on spy?
Or fix 10% of spy's abysmal disguise bugs?
Or just straight copy tf2 classic and add the civilian gamemode?
Or maybe... new item ideas?!
Or new Potato MvM tours with new Australiums!
Maybe bring back spells with a new Halloween mode.
So much potential and 2% of it will be realized.
I think it will be new cosmetics as always but also few balance changes, I don't think they'll add new weapons
I am excited for this update
I hope I eat my words of saying "I really don't have hope to not just get another basic more so extra cosmetic items and maps."
Gaben: "announces update"
tf2 community: Dear God
Valve: there's more
its the janator, hes back
4:07 the frozen aurora war paint is amazing wdym
Its a furry warpaint go look it up who made it
@@fluzzleslike 60% of tf2 players are furries wym
I know that I, initially, I was too hyped over any communication around TF2. I'm gonna wait until the actual update drops and the quality of it to give any praise, but I AM looking forward to the update regardless.
I'm going to wait and see the result of this.
False alarm doc
This video called it
My expectations are on the floor until it comes out, until then i can't believe this isn't anything other than workshop hats/reskin maps
items, maps, taunts, unusual effects, & war paints...
until proven otherwise, I'm going to expect exactly what it says on the tin;
Zesty is the moist cr1tikal of TF2
So low quality opinions and poor editing.
"Heavy update" = a mans dream will never die
tropical badwater does sound cool though
I just want more fucking killstreak effects
7:20 I haven't seen anyone dismiss the return of bots
