Engineer Update: Day Two

Everyone loves remote control toys. But the problem with most of them is, unless you manage to remote control one directly down someone’s throat, they’re pretty useless as weapons. But what if we were to tell you that we fixed that obvious design flaw?

Day Two of the Engineer Update brings the engineering faithful The Wrangler, the remote sentry gun controller; “Upward”, an all-new, Valve-designed Payload Map; and 25 shiny, super-rare wrenches from our quickly-dwindling supply.

Note: To ensure everyone gets the chance to pull the lever, we’ve increased the weekly item drop limit for this week only. So if you thought you’d hit your item cap, think again!

Engineer Update: Day One

Those of you who spent the weekend Tokyo drift-racing your way to a rap battle—or whatever it is people do when they go outside on the weekend—probably feel pretty good about yourselves right now. At the end of the day, though, what do you have to show for it? Vague memories of changing lanes. Twenty-five of the people who wisely chose to stay home and craft items, on the other hand, now have shiny new ultra-rare golden wrenches that they can keep. For a weekend? No. For a lifetime. Eat it, drift-racers. Eat all of it.

Luckily for you wrenchless unfortunates, there’s still time to get one. A further 75 golden wrenches can be found through crafting all this week*. We’ll also be teasing Engie’s new weapons (the first of which, the revenge-critting Frontier Justice,, is currently on display)—with all of this culminating in the long-awaited Engineer Update this Thursday!

*Note that we’ve disabled the Smelt Reclaimed Metal & Smelt Refined Metal recipes. They’ll work again once the Engineer Update goes live.

In the mildest cases, mosquito bites result in an itchy bump which eventually disappears if not obsessively scratched. In the worst cases, mosquito bites result in – you guessed it – death. Given the circumstances, it is a wonder modern housing still include doors and operable windows as standard features.
