Shacknews.com is reporting that valve will make 2 new maps available within 2 months! One of them being badlands!

Two new maps for Valve's Team Fortress 2 will hopefully arrive within the next two months, the studio has informed Shacknews. One of the new arenas is a remake of Team Fortress Classic's Badlands map, with an emphasis on more vertically-oriented gameplay due to the presence of control points on towering spires.

"Our estimate is that both these maps should be out within the next 2 months," Valve employee Robin Walker told Shacknews. "We expect to ship other new content before that."
That other content includes the forthcoming Medic achievement pack, which will add several new achievements for the Medic as well as a significant gameplay tweak for the class.

"It's a large scale modification to the core of the game," Walker hinted. "It'll debut in a limited fashion through the Medic first, but it'll be affecting all classes eventually."
"We're really looking forward to the community reaction," he continued. "We're really excited about where TF2 will be going over the next year."

2 months valve time is around a year our time, however, we must have faith. I actually believe them this time.
(medic achievements announced first week of december but still not with us even though they said 'in the coming weeks'...)
