looks like tf2 might be getting a new class or crazy upgrade.

if you click the paper it takes you to another page that is not from Valve but might be a what they are thinking about.

Yeah, saw this yesterday. It is an interesting idea for the 10th class. But I don't think valve will do it :(

I would love to be proven wrong though. But, with a lot of the team finishing l4d2, we won't see that for some time.

I think it could almost be made into an engi upgrade instead of a sentry

it is most likely fake but that i what most people thought about the Jarate too.  So i do not know it could possible that they might make something out of it.

That picture was being spread around on the Steam forums before valve made that post. 

There were tens of thousands of posts on the steam forums of people liking the dog idea, so I'm assuming valve made that post on their blog as a reply to to posters on the steam forum.

So yes, the picture is fake and fan made, but people liked the idea, so I'm assuming valve will look into it as a possibility, but at this point I'd assume almost no work has been put towards that, so it is not an impending update, just a fan idea that has caught a lot of attention.

yes i know it is fake but still would be a great concept and they have added a day 2 now 13 hats/ collars and 2 custom maps

I repeat this is just a fan made joke not real valve just likes the ingenuity of the fan.

not found shewolf from your link.  But yea i know it is fake but that could be an interesting addition instead of maybe a sentry for the engi.
