While some skeptical players will tell you Valve are going to leave the game in the dust, an update on the official Team Fortress 2 blog points in the opposite direction, talking about how they are indeed working on the inevitable Engineer Class Update, and share with us one of the scrapped ideas they’ve been playing with.
The Repair Node was designed to give players the ability to leave their buildings without risking their destruction straight away. However, as is pointed out in the post, many problems arise from overpowered bases, slowed maps, and created an engineer who was less about support and more about himself.
There’s not much to say on this issue, but I’d like to see this feature come as maybe a modified dispenser, where it maybe can’t heal players, but can heal buildings (draining it’s ammo/metal supplies) it’s right next to. The Repair Node is a great idea, so it’s going to be interesting to see what they actually use in the update.
Do you have any thoughts on the building? Do you see anything that could of been tweaked to make it a more viable option? Or do you have a completely better idea for the Engineer? Do you want me to stop asking questions in this post? Then reply in the comments below.

I’m facing an idea that part of me wants to push forward with, but another wants me to forever forget about it, and/or put it in my personal journal.
Basically, as I tweeted earlier, I’m considering making a sub domain on ZombieSkittles to chronicle my past, present and future fails and successes with the female gender. It’d be something I could write about, and would enjoy writing about, but there’s things I’d feel a little self-conscious about; like I first “made out” with a girl when I was 17…I was a late bloomer I guess.
Anyway, I’m in the dilemma of whether or not to broadcast all my failures and everything else, which I’m prone to.
The other issue is I’ll need to find a way of writing these things out. What do I cover and how much detail I need to go into. There are some things that are private, but at the same time are a little crucial to some of the stories.
Basically, I’m not really ashamed of anything, since while some has hurt me to a degree, and some is flat out embarrassing, it’s still a part of my life which I’m more than willing to write about. Chances are if you’re reading this you have almost one half of the readers of this blog, so I’m asking you for your opinion; both via the poll above, and the comments. It would be appreciated.
