TF2 update Jan 14

[l3eeron]

Updates to Team Fortress 2 have been released. The updates will be applied automatically when your Steam client is restarted. The specific changes include:

Team Fortress 2

* Added new option for medigun beam to the Multiplayer->Advanced dialog. If on, the medigun beam will stay attached to the current target without the need to hold down the fire button
* Added new option for the sniper rifle to the Multiplayer->Advanced dialog. If disabled, the sniper rifle won't re-zoom after firing a zoomed shot
* Added "nextlevel" server cvar. If set to a valid map name, server will change to that map during the next changelevel
* Fixed PerfUI being used as a type of wall-hack on servers without sv_cheats set to 1
* Reduced Granary spawn advantage for capping the middle point
* Fixed players turning into "Scout" model after lagouts (and a variety of related issues, such as disappearing doors)
* Fixed obscure crash related to resolution changing

---

If on, the medigun beam will stay attached to the current target without the need to hold down the fire button

So that's what all the fuss was about?

Excellent, it was annoying to know that there was a Valve sponsored wallhack that worked regardless of sv_pure and sv_cheat settings.

[Barrel Bomber]

The major medic update will come with the medic achievement pack Im assuming. I sure hope this isn't the game altering change

About time. These two bugs have been giving me hell for the past two weeks.

Still no improved support for GeForce 8000M series though >.> I'm sick of my game randomly stopping resulting in my death because I'm standing still for one minute fixing it, yay looping sound bug.

I think that's a huge improvement!

[Element]

I don't think that was the major improvement they were talking about though... it's just an update.

Like swill said, I think the major updates will come when the new achievements come...

German? WTF are you doing here?

But seriously... that medic thing sounds nice, and it's always great to hear they're fixing hacks (even if it was a Valve-induced hack that should never have existed in the first place


* Yes I'm just joking, for those who don't always get jokes. I've made it my solemn duty to give the [BIO] folks crap, because I'm [LEC] and it just seems right ^_^
My apologies to the [BIO] people if I've offended you in any way, I'm just trying to have a little fun

I'm not sure if I'll use that medic option. One one hand it will reduce finger fatigue, but it also might make it more difficult to switch targets fast enough to save a critically wounded, possibly on fire, colleague.

[Doktor Jones]

Well I'm guessing if you click again, it retargets whoever's under your crosshair. Since under the current system, you still have to lift off and re-click to target someone else, there shouldn't be much time difference. I figure I'll at least try it out
