Quietly and quickly Valve ran a ridiculous sale of Team Fortress 2 yesterday for the low low price of $2.49. This sale only lasted a few hours and by the time I heard about the sale there was only about 45 minutes left in the sale. But after the sale Valve released a Halloween styled update for the game.

This new patch contained a time sensitive set of achievements and a limited time only new map. These new achievements will only work from now thru November 2 and can only be locked in the new Harvest. The new Harvest map is a Halloween themed King of Hill Map littered with exploding pumpkins, wandering ghosts and a clue that the rumored tenth class is in fact dead.

In the map there are two headstone that read “RIP Zepheniah Mann” and “RIP The Tenth Class.” Sorry new class hopefuls it looks like the dream is over. For now we’re stuck with the original nine classes. As for Zepheniah Mann you can read his last will and testament here for this back story.
