In the latest of TF2's seemingly eternal supply of updates, the mercs are faced with their most outlandish threat yet. The update brings four new community created maps, some of them 'Invaded' versions of existing maps and others entirely new. The Watergate map introduces a new 'player destruction' mode, in which both teams have to collect beer from dead players and deliver it to a UFO in the middle of the map.It's set up in much the same way as the Gun Mettle Update, with an 'Invasion Community Update Pass' available from the store which gives you a coin that tracks kills on invaded maps for the month that the event lasts. You don't need to buy it to access the maps, and all the money raised goes to the update's community creators.Buying the pass also makes you eligible for random drops of 'Space Cases' that can contain anyone of a bunch of the new cosmetics that have also been added. When Valve have done similar things with CS:GO, I've often been able to make back the money by selling my first couple of crate drops—so long as it's in the first day or two before the price of them comes crashing down on the community market.

Greetings from all of us at #Samsa.Games! #Samsa.Games is now one year up and running steam gaming community with a variety of server and gamemodes mostly in CS:S. At the moment we have bhop, surf and zombie riot servers in CS:S, one CS:CZ server, one KF server and in TF2 we have one custom MvM server with 10 player slots. Server is located on Germany, so ping is playable and nice to most of EU countries! All servers have fastdl. We also maintain stats through HLSTATSX:CE to our servers (exept KF server). You can find your stats and rank through our forums which we'll introduce to you later. We have a group of admins that are actively playing in our servers. They are mature and are there to keep order if needed. We don't approve using hacks or scripts such as aimbot, wallhack or bhopscripts etc. At #Samsa.Games you don't have to fear ANY KIND of discrimination or racism since we welcome people to our servers without looking to your race or even sexual preference. As we mentioned earlier we have a steam group and also just opened forums. There you can find your stats, bans, serverlist and webchat to connect our IRC-channel, contact us if you have any questions or problems with our servers.You can even donate to our servers if you are feeling generous! When enterin our forum for first time be sure to read the rules. There are not many so we are sure you can act by them. We do listen to our players and their requests appending to servers.

The first step of any map-making process at Valve starts with figuring out what the TF2 community would most like to play. The idea for "Gorge", for instance, came from a brainstorming session to see if we could develop an alternative to the standard Attack/Defense map. The competitive community typically avoids Attack/Defense maps for several reasons, one of which is their potentially long time limits. We thought that was an interesting variable to dig into - could we develop a shorter-form Attack/Defense map? The community overall had also been asking us to make more five-point CP maps, so we thought there was an opportunity to try out a short Attack/Defense map that could then be turned into a five-point CP map via mirroring down the road.
