Team Fortress 2 Patch Notes

The Heavy Update is live in Team Fortress 2, but the patch notes haven't yet shown up on the Steam website, so here they are from Steam itself:

Added 3 Heavy unlockables
        • Natascha, The Sandvich, The Killing Gloves of Boxing

        • cp_steel, a community map by Jamie "Fishbus" Manson

Changes
        • Added server map timeleft to upper right of scoreboard
        • Added new firing sounds to The Backburner
        • Removed the Custom Tab in the serverbrowser, and added the Tags field to the base Internet Tab
        • Increased The Kritzkrieg's uber-charge rate bonus from 10% to 25%
        • 32 player servers can now support an extra slot of SourceTV

        • Fixed Spy watch arm not using team skins
        • Fixed weapon switching preventing you from using secondary attacks for a 0.2s window after the primary became available
        • Fixed players getting stuck in a bad animation state when class switching while spinning the minigun
        • Fixed a loophole that allowed players to pickup weapons of other classes
        • Fixed a bug that resulted in players earning more crit chance bonus in large, single damage events than they are supposed to
        • Fixed an issue with the floating HUD +X health indicators that resulted in them appearing incorrectly
        • Fixed a bug which caused the minigun spinning & firing sounds to occasionally stop while the Heavy was still firing
        • Fixes the Loadout player model panel causing the in-game player facial animation to perform incorrectly
        • Fixed spectators not having the target ID labels display correctly
        • Fixed the cart alarm sound occasionally getting stuck on in Payload maps

Wow. The new theme used in Lumberyard is amazing! Valve once again delivers. Arena mode is actually really fun - even though I normally play InstantRespawn server I don't mind sitting around at the end of a round as much as I thought.

CPU upgrade? Check. Graphics upgrade? Not sure. I can wait for DX11 or grab a second 4870 now... or do both. Hmmm. Sunny

I think the Sandvich is totally awesome. I saw a guy last night eating one in a corner it's hilarious. And the new gun makes an AWESOME sound effect. Valve has really got one hell of a hit on there hands with TF2..IMO.
