Added new firing sounds to The Backburner

Removed the Custom Tab in the serverbrowser, and added the Tags field to the base Internet Tab

32 player servers can now support an extra slot of SourceTV

Made the freezecam item panel description easier to read

Players now broadcast whether they chose a team directly or use autoteam

Added proper handling of cart blocking recognition to Payload maps



Bug fixes


Fixed bug where switching from flaregun-wielding Pyro to another class meant you didn't get a full ammo loadout on first spawn

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
 
this update is weird...my games have been lagging and freezing a lot
first time i started it up, got a crash that took out my desktop widgets and docks
:(
 
MUHAHAHA the KGB taunt is a homage to Mike Tyson's Punch-Out (King Hippo?) ... at least, that's the first thing I thought when I saw it. :D
 
When I read that the update was out I immediately fired up tf2 just to get the update so I could play later... but nothing happened. I restarted the game two more times and still nothing. I restarted steam and nadda. I was just about to uninstall/reinstall when I fired up the game one more time - this time I checked the character setup and the loadout for the heavy was there... stupid phantom update - must have ninja-installed on me when I got my soda the first time.

Anyways... see you guys on later!

Try disabling and then re-enabling auto-updates, that is what worked for me.
 
No - it installed. It must have happened when I got up to get a soda the first time - I just didn't notice, hence the ninja-install. Apparently it isn't that big cause the fridge is only 10' away.
