We're going to have a mandatory TF2 update coming Wednesday afternoon/evening. This is just a heads-up that it's coming so that you can be prepared.

There is one change that might require a change to server configs:
tf_show_voice_icons has been renamed to mp_show_voice_icons so that it's more generic.

Thanks,
Tony

And just to clarify, that?s not the only change. It?s a large update, but that?s one that stands out that may require action by server owners ahead-of-time.

Thanks,
Tony

Yes, the changes that lock the server FPS to the tickrate will ship in the next update. This change is already in the TF2 Beta if you want to try it out there.

Thanks,
Tony

Also, they've posted "Making of a Skull Hat" on blog http://tf2.com/post.php?id=6483

which hints tonight's update will be Halloween update...if not Halloween update is coming within few days.

 

[Believer]

We so excited.

 

[Fallen_Angel]

Grrrrrrrrrrrr.... *continues to growl for another two weeks* Welp, not like I'm gonna be playing this update anytime soon...

Anyway, with any luck, there'll be some fun weapons (no more Enforcer like weapons) and it'll be enjoyable for all. Or I'll kill Believer. Permanently.

 

[Noise]

Probably gonna add secret stuff to maps just to get everyone all hyped up.

 

[Redwood]

finally.

The update is being pushed back to tomorrow. More testing is needed before they can release the update.

[Believer]

Yeah Canary, way to ruin my day. This is all your fault! The source you quoted is just secondary - it was you this whole time!

Hope they include new halloween themed weapons in the future update.

Let's just say it's coming out tonight, Valve Time. That means anytime this week, including this night.

He's been trying to give up recently. It's difficult. You shouldn't be encouraging him.

 

[Deviant1]

[Shiznoe]

Omg about time!

I have the shakes, cold sweats, and a hankering for young meat. Lack of pony thread withdrawl?
