Another TF2 Mini Patch: 6/26/14

Posted on: June 26th, 2014 by Obey

The main thing about this patch is that (hopefully) the B.A.S.E. Jumper will keep servers from crashing–especially the UGC servers during competitive matches!

Oh, and you can now buy and sell Summer Starter Kits and Adventure Packs on the Steam Market.

Full Patch Notes

Fixed a client crash related to the B.A.S.E. Jumper

Updated the B.A.S.E. Jumper backpack to use an open model when the parachute is deployed

Removed the shot effect for The Classic in DirectX 8
Updated the name of The Senguko Scorcher to be The Sengoku Scorcher

TF Mini Patch: 6/24/2014

Posted on: June 24th, 2014 by Obey

So this happened:

The Demoman sticky nerf HAS BEEN REVERSED!

Yuuup! The default stickybomb launcher no longer has damage ramp up, doing its original full damage as soon as it is armed. However, expect Team Steam to be working on other nerfs and/or alternate weapons for the Demoman.

The long-standing meta in TF2 has been reliant on detonating individual stickies in mid-air, which is very effective for both offense and defense. I’m sure TF2 was–for the first time in years!–trying to implement incremental changes, but this ended up being too much, too quick, and negatively impacted competitions and the like.

In other news: taunts aren’t craftable yet, but soon we may be able to craft taunts, as Steam has included crafting numbers for taunts into the game data.

Full Patch Notes

Reverted the recent stickybomb damage ramp up change. We will continue to evaluate the use of stickybomb air detonations and potential changes to that mechanic.
Fixed being able to taunt with enemies between spawn room doors.
Fixed a problem with The Senguko Scorcher‘s materials
Updated the Towering Pillar of Summer Shades so they are marketable.
Updated the attribute description for the Back Scatter to better explain what it does.
Updated the localization files

Undocumented changes

Set all taunts to be giftable, nameable, and have craft numbers.
