Online games are extremely popular on the PC as they usually don't require a lot of resources and you can play them alongside your family and friends. Team Fortress 2 is a multiplayer-only title released by Valve, which has taken a very unique tongue-in-cheek
approach to online shooters, representing classes with some memorable clichés.

Since its release, the game has received numerous updates, including ones especially made for different classes, which gave them new abilities, weapons and achievements. The latest one to receive such a thing was the Scout class, and now it seems that the next one is the Sniper, as reported by Valve's Greg Cherlin on the TF2 Blog.

He went on to say that the Sniper would receive quite a lot of things, with the update being one of the biggest they launched for the game. He also tackled the subject of the Xbox 360 version of the patch that was released with the Scout update, saying that the memory limit had given the development team a lot of problems, but progress was being made.

“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.”

So it seems that new goodies won't come only to the Sniper, since all classes should receive new features, courtesy of Valve. Hopefully, the team won't encounter any problems and we will see this future update in the following months. Until then, you can still enjoy the classes that have already received their update, the Heavy, Medic, Pyro and the Scout.
