This update should be exciting, it should change things up a little bit and add a little bit more uncertainty to each character. The new map type will be nice since the the original were getting a little tired. I had started going to the servers with just custom maps.
On the down side, this will completely change how the teams are being played. Right now I switch to whatever class is needed at that moment, but the ability to unlock new weapons will dissuade this type of game play. It will make people only want to focus on one or two classes so they can unlock everything. This means it is possible you will get stuck on the team with 10 snipers because they are all trying to upgrade them.
Hopefully we don't run across too many servers with only a clan on it "fighting" each other in order to unlock all the new achievements.

I agree. I think the phased roll out of class improvement is a terrible idea. It means each time a new class change is released, the servers will be awash in people playing as that character, trying to unlock their achievements.
They just released the update last night (4/29/08). The whole team weren't medics, but there were consistently 3 or 4 medics on each team. It is kind of nice if you are playing a soldier or a heavy, yet somehow, I still managed to die.
You know, I think the "play doctor" achievement may actually be hard to get for a while.

The key to these is to get with your friends on a private server and just grind through them. Like, have your friends stand still while you needle gun them to death, etc etc. It can be done, though that just illustrates how silly it is to force achievements to unlock weapons.
It should be a simple metric, like total hours played as a medic, or total health points.
