Valve just can’t seem to leave Team Fortress 2 alone. Since its original launch back in 2007, the game has seen more updates than Twitter.<\/p>\n
Anyway, the dev’s prepping another bunch of new stuff for deployment – and this time around, they’re inviting players to check it out first.<\/p>\n
According to the TF2 blog, participants will be testing class, item, and weapon changes, map changes and variants, and “running higher-level, game-wide experiments (like doubling player health).”<\/p>\n
The initial beta release includes three Natascha variants and some map tweaks, while hit-scan weapon movement-impairing effects have been nixed from players under medic intervention. I can hear the complaints already.<\/p>\n
The beta is now available to everyone who owns a copy of Team Fortress 2, and can be downloaded and installed<\/a> from players’ Steam game lists.<\/p>\n
