Valve hired the team and announced Team Fortress Classic: a version of the. We can only hope that an angry Scottish demolitions expert and a suave French espionage agent will appear among their number.īattlefield 2042 is set to come out on October 22.

Van Daele is "the unflappable, calm presence on the Task Force," EA said, and "a master of camouflage and long-range engagement." There's no mention of Jarate, which frankly I'm grateful for.
