OKAY I'M POSTING AGAIN TO SUMMARIZE NEWS THIS IS THE LAST TIME I SWEAR.

The engineer update will be released on THURSDAY.

For every 25 golden wrenches found in the game, more info is released.

To find a golden wrench in-game, just try and craft something. A successful craft may result in a wrench. It's random.

There is a new payload map: It takes place in a base built on a mountaintop.

The engineer has a new shotgun. It has half the ammo storage and no random crits, but for every kill your sentry makes, you are guaranteed TWO critical hits once the sentry is destroyed.

The engineer's pistol replacement does a couple things:

-Allows you to auto-aim your sentry
-Makes a shield around your sentry negating 66% of all damage

The downside is it stops working for three seconds if you switch away the weapon.

I'm liking the sound of this. :) As someone who likes playing as an engineer, I think I'll have fun with the updates... as long as I can get my hands of them, that is.

AND THE LAST UNLOCK ISSSSSSSSSS

A robotic hand!

Yup indeedy, the most sane class in the game ends up chopping his right arm off....FOR SCIENCE.

+25 hp
+Has a three hit combo attack- the third hit always crits
+It builds mini sentries instead

*The sentry goes up 4x as fast (like, half a second), deploys with 100% hp, only costs 100 metal
-Cannot be repaired or upgraded

I took to achievement farming for these bad boys and got to try all of them.

Opinion: I will never play engineer the old way ever again.

The new shotgun is really fun, especially with the new weaker sentry...all these items tend to work well together.

You put up a weak sentry in literally half a second, and pull the wrangler out. BAM, new, more powerful pistol. It acts like a laser pointer, so just sit behind the sentry for 10 seconds and get a quick kill with it, then pull out your shotgun and let the fun commence. It makes the engineer really fast paced, and is alot different from the old turtling style.

HOWEVER, a new shotgun+wrangler+old wrench would work good for that as well. Like I said, it makes it a super pistol, so setting up a level 3 with that sucker works really well.

Easily the best set of weapons thus far.
