New TF2 Update

[Silent_Ninja]

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

Game Changes


Reworked the character loadout screens to support future features

Added the ability for players to permanently delete items from their inventory using the new Backpack menu. This does not reset achievements. Once an item has been deleted it can never be re-earned

Added the ability for players to reset their player stats using the Reset Stats button on the Stats menu. This does not reset achievements

Added a "player_teleported" game event that is sent when a player is teleported

Updated cp_junction_final to score per-capture instead of per-round. This fixes the map not working correctly with Tournament mode and the stopwatch

Scouts now drop the flag if they're carrying it when they start phasing


Fixes

Fixed instances where Steam connection problems would cause some unlocked items to be unusable

Fixed the custom crosshair menu not clearing itself when "None" is selected for non-English clients

Fixed warning about not being able to execute skill1.cfg when starting the dedicated server




What's with "Added the ability for players to permanently delete items from their inventory using the new Backpack menu. This does not reset achievements. Once an item has been deleted it can never be re-earned" I don't see the point in deleting ANY item, what's your input guys?

Hats! OMG OMG. Why in the hell would you want to delete your weapons?

Hats! OMG OMG. Why in the hell would you want to delete your weapons?

To make room for the new weapons that are probably going to be added im guessing. Random drops of some sort?

With all this MMORPG stuff I'm afraid that TF2 will take more space on my hard drive then WoW soon, I'm all for new content but not unneeded content, if the hats make the game more fun then I'm all for it but if they make the game more fun while making it 5 gigs larger then I'm a little edgy.

if the items can't be replaced by something new, why would you ever want to remove the option to use them??! i agree, i have no idea what the benefits could be. sounds as if we'll have to be extremely careful with the new menu; hit the wrong button, and items disappear, never to return again. i feel like there must be something missing from the explanation, because it doesn't really make any sense.

 

[Cut Chem!st]

I'll just be a little annoyed if i get filled up on unlocks, then I delete one then 3 months later and a update comes out for it

Also, with all this talk I love the reset stats page, I had accidently went to a server where it maxed my pts on a few things.. finally able to get rid of that, gonna miss my 400+ hrs of spy though

 

[Sharp_Shooter]

My farming scars are gone! Heck YEAH!

I agree Ninja, even if your notusing the backburner, why delete it? You never know when u jsut want to use something for the heck of it! Thats a pointless addition in my opinion! I also heard that thers a lot of terouble with the reset stats...seems buggy!

This makes a lot of sense. Now we have to wait for this future improvements.

 

[Sharp_Shooter]

No servers are popping up, even the public ones. Anybody else getting this?

 

[Lance]

I like how you go into the "head" option and it says "empty".

Looks like Valve's gearing up for some bigtime shenanigans.

Same "problem" here. I think that is just the servers updating their software (tf2)

 

[WaterSnake]

I can't even join any servers without it crashing

But the delete stats option is very much appreciated. i had some messed up stats from the medic update...

 

[MkiZzLe]

I cant get into servers either, gotta love the updates >.<
