New TFC Coming Soon -- 2:50 pm CST, Update by The Master

An article in PCGamer on a new version of TFC coming soon has been summarized over on PlanetFortress. Here's the scoop:

• Expected by PCGamer (read: not necessarily Valve) to be out in a month.
• Will be called Team Fortress 1.5
• Three new levels: Warpath, Epicenter, and Dustbowl.
• Uses the same netcode as Team Fortress 2 (this is an update for all of halflife-so mods like actionhalflife, counterstrike will have the sleek code too.)
• Contain a new Internet control system dubbed VGUI. (I have no idea what this is)
• "Dustbowl" is a map with a new game mode we've yet to see in TeamFortress Classic. In it, one team must carry their flag into the other teams base within a certain time limit, while the other team defends. -- Sounds a lot like assault with the clock timing each side.
• Valve also announced that a new version of Worldcraft would be released, bringing it up to version 3.3.
• A new Half-Life software developer kit (HL SDK 2.0) will also be released. Both applications will have a slew of new features and options.
