We thought you might find it interesting if we walked you through the process we use to ship an update to TF2. There we go, update shipped. [patch notes] [/QUOTE]

[QUOTE]Gunslinger >Fixed a bug that caused mini-sentries to heal while being constructed [/QUOTE] FINALLY!

They seem really nonchalant about this update. There's not even a dedicated update page like all the other major updates.

They're saving the update page for when they add the Griefblower

Am I the only one who thinks they fucked up by replacing set bonuses with some shitty calling cards? More hats is okay I guess. But I'am more dissappointed how they fucked up some of the weapons and sets.

Removing set bonuses and putting the stats in other weapons also loosened up loadouts so you could have a bit more variation.

But honestly I'am just butthurt there is no challenge when using a set. It's now just for show. I loved being a Sniper that couldn't get headshotted but could still be insta-killed with a body shot.

I can see your point. I'll just except it as is since there is no way I could change anything by being butthurt.

[QUOTE=Ellis :P;41410492]I'am just butthurt[/QUOTE] That's what I like to hear.

I haven't played yet, so no comment on the items. BUT DEAR GOD the new crafting interface sucks. Specifically the most common crafting I do: smelt class weapons. You can either 1. Choose the blueprint. Your items aren't sorted by class, so it's tedious to find all of the dups you have. 2. Choose custom blueprint. It doesn't show how many of each item you have! So you can't tell which ones are dups and which aren't. Awful.

Damn, they changed the Liberty Launcher

[QUOTE=Tenrys;41415929]That's an old one... Plus, [url]http://scrap.tf/[/url][/QUOTE] I don't think so. I used to custom blueprints to smelt class weapons and it worked fine since it didn't stack duplicates. It was very easy to pick out which ones to craft.

I can't seem to play this. Whenever I get to the main menu after it starts up, the game just freezes entirely.
