i assume people got hyped, expecting an actual summer update (akin to jungle inferno or gun mettle) when it's just gonna be a new cosmetic drop

although unlike the seasonal events (christmas & halloween) these aren't gonna be themed, which is pretty cool!

fans have just been so content-starved in recent years, any nugget of new official content is getting them overly excited, which is why valve probably wanted to clarify what to expect from the update

welp, any update is cool. I might be in the minority, but the only things I expect of Valve in terms of TF2 is keeping servers up and keeping the bots out.
with that announcement I got the impression that they might want to keep trying on more than this update if it goes well, so why get upset over some writer guy making the community too excited by mistake, we're gonna get new stuff
