According to Valve software engineer Kerry Davis, the TF2 development team has been busy lately, working on a patch as well as some downloadable content. The patch will fix numerous bugs in the game including bandwidth issues, stats reporting, menu enhancements and exploit fixing which are all issues they investigated after reading forum posts made by TF2 players (aww shucks, they listen to their community too!) The patch has already been submitted to Microsoft and should be applied before Christmas. Finally, Davis mentions that they are working on new multiplayer maps as well which do not have a release date just yet, but they'll be rolled out on both the PC and Xbox 360 which smells of free DLC to us. Oh, and Davis also reminds us that Valve cares, loves us and will do anything to please our ungrateful bums, except they refuse to wash our car. Which sort of stinks, seeing that our car is hella' dirty.

They listen to their customers in the gaming community?!? They answer questions?!?! Holy crap! Now only if other companies would follow the examples of Valve... (EA:You are a bad, BAD dog)

We want DLC for Portal. I think that's what we're all waiting for.

I'm a bit surprised that people think Valve has ignored TF2. They sent out a patch a few weeks after release that fixed alot of the lag issues. And Valve has already said dlc would be coming, but they are going to wait a bit before they roll it out. In the past Valve has shown just how much they care about & listen to the "community". They will keep on doing so with The Orange Box.
