Team Fortress 2 Update / Fixes

Changes are below, some fairly important. Good to see a fast patch.
  • Fixed Ambassador not using hitboxes to trace against players. It now works like all other bullet-firing weapons in the game
  • Fixed Ambassador shooting through gates
  • Fixed Ambassador not critting during the round win period
  • Fixed control point not being named correctly on Arena Sawmill
  • Fixed cloaked Spies being able to taunt attack
  • Fixed Spy feign death not being reflected in scoreboard
  • Fixed Jarate effect on DX8 machines
  • Fixed rare crash in Spy "A Cut Above" achievement
  • Fixed the backpack icon appearing over the "Could not connect to Steam" message in the client inventory
  • Fixed German localization string for respawning players showing %1

Ambassador gate shooting and spy invisible taunt killing are problems of the past! Steam news.

I knew that the second I heard about the gate shooting it would be fixed in a day or two. HOORAY VALVE. *Suck penis*

After speaking with a couple people they are getting error messages when joining servers. Since this update just came out, many servers haven't updated yet and that is the common problem. Should be alright in a while.

Doesn't mean people like Hool aren't going to come in and bitch about how shitty Valve is with their games.

What about fixing Pipeline so that when one team wins, the game ends?

Brilliant update otherwise.

No damage reduction on the ambassador? Seems to do a lot more damage than the revolved, even though it's supposed to do less.

It does 15% less damage than the revolver, it was just that with the revolver you could miss. You could have a stormtrooper's aim and hit with every single bullet of the ambassador. Minicrit, body shot body shot body shot body shot body shot.

I wish they had fixed the unlock system. Today I got a 2nd Force-A-Nature which is going to be endlessly useful.

Didn't someone say you'll be able to trade weapons in the future? That's what the double/triples are for.

It'll be like Pokemon! except you aren't 12 anymore and these are guns

The only morality in a cruel world is chance. Unbiased, unprejudiced, fair.
