HAHA, blocked java! Why was java running in there in the first place.

Disabled java? YES, HOPEFULLY NO MORE PINION!

overall a nice batch of fixes also lol @ manmelter change

Shame the VR stuff isn't in settings and is ALL console.

>want to play scrims for the first time in like 1.5 weeks >valve releases update which means we have to update server and our chances of finding people that can play, on our server, reduced by 95% fuk u valv

$300 seems worth it.

[QUOTE]Disabled Java for the in-game web browser [/QUOTE] Why was this enabled in the first place...

calculated my disposable income for the coming months in my classes today... turns out there's some spare hundred to be lying around in checking. oh no. someone stop me. I HAD HYPE FOR THE RIFT BEFORE BUT NOW THIS?

Wait, when you spend $300, do you only get the software or do you get the hardware (VRH) too?

[t]http://i.imgur.com/E0y6pal.jpg[/t] Misunderstanding or sign of things to come?[/QUOTE] I think it's a misunderstanding, but considering the volume of promotional stuff we've seen lately, I wouldn't be surprised if the TF2 team decided that all this promo stuff was getting in the way of delivering new player content (as opposed to just new things to spend money on, as per #50's highly desirable spread of items within). Sucks that they had to cut it off right before they got theirs in, though. That one seems pretty inoffensive in the big picture compared to other things we've gotten.

[QUOTE=mphayes97;39972002]Wait, when you spend $300, do you only get the software or do you get the hardware (VRH) too?[/QUOTE] Both I believe. And they're emailing the code if you bought it already.

[QUOTE]Fixed a scoreboard bug where domination count was reduced by 2 when a dominated player left the server[/QUOTE] FINALLY!

[QUOTE]Disabled Java for the in-game web browser [/QUOTE] Could this affect mods like Advanced Waponizer?
