*Hectic Glenn* · #1 30-05-2009, 01:40 AM

An update has been applied to TF2 tonight, with many changes but most importantly, milestone achievements have been reinstated so players can unlock weapons via this method also. Full change list below.

Added Sniper/Spy milestone achievements as an additional way players can get the new unlockables
Added tf_arena_use_queue server convar. Turn this on to get the old queue behavior. Default is off
Added tf_arena_round_time to set a timelimit on the round
Added the userid of the player who built the teleporter to the "player_teleported" event
Fixed player killed event causing server crash
Fixed Spies not being telefragged when standing on an enemy teleporter exit with the Dead Ringer enabled
Fixed attackers seeing the mini-crit particle effect for full crits if the victim has the Jarate effect enabled
Fixed the Ambassador not doing damage to buildings
Fixed Spies disguised as their own team not drawing blood effects
Fixed players killed by flaming arrows not showing the appropriate death icon

Looks like The Herd wins.

Thank you! 120+ hours playing/idling for a Huntsman I never got! Now another 120 getting the achievements hehe

I've actually got about 25 of the achievements for both classes by just playing TF2 in pubs, I think they've worked harder to make them more attainable by normal gameplay.

*Fire's up achievement unlocker* This is much better than using that program that simulates idling on a server. I got em all now.

I appreciate that they did this, even if I find it a bit late, however I'd like to give my extras away.

Poor Valve. This update has probably given them massive headaches.

It reminds me of when they tried to implement the dynamic pricing into Counter Strike Source.

Valve has certainly had their ups and downs. Whats great about them is that they work so well with the community that we're able to see it all happen. Not like Activision or Ubisoft where you never know whats going on behind the closed doors.

Much props to them.

Well, no one can say VALVe didn't listen on this this one, though I think most of it was internet melodrama. Guess that means I can delete my doubles, since any worth they had will be shot now. I wonder if they'll bother with a trading system and what they'll do to make hat trading viable other than trading doubles for doubles.

By all rights I should have the third Spy milestone.

And the unlock that comes with it. :/

Thats achievements broken basically because I got achievements while Valve were assessing how pointless the random thing was.
