The new TF2 Update is expected Tuesday, April 29th!
When we were in Seattle and play testing a near final build of the newest update, which includes the new game mode Gold Rush, we found out some more details of the new achievements and loading screens. Many of the achievements have been known, but some have changed since the info was originally released. Some of these achievements will be given based on past performance when this update rolls out. However, some (such as saving a falling teammate with a UberCharge) have not had anything to record those statistics previously, so will have to be earned post-update.
We also had the opportunity to interview Erik, a project manager at Valve. We will have more details later about the interview, but we did talk some on achievements. Valves idea for achievements are to help guide people to try new ways of playing the game to better help the whole team. Acting as goals, they give you direction in how to play the game better.
