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

where did you find that info? I can't seem to find it on the steam website.

1) Steam pisses me off. The update is so tempremental and the download rate often dies for prolonged periods. Steam will also crash often whilst trying to update TF2. It just never goes smoothly and never makes full use of my connection.

I dread what will happen when L4D comes out. It'll probably be quicker ordering it from a store and awaiting it to get delivered.

But all of the above are probably things nobody else experiences.

2) Why have they still not fixed the Pyros gun emitting flames even when you are not firing the gun? I haven't tried out the update yet, but it doesn't seem to be added to the list of bug fixes. It's annoying running around with the flame going everywhere and you have to click fire to stop it.

When it's updating you can see all the changes.

You can also see it (and past updates) by right clicking on "Team Fortress 2" and choosing "View update news".

Or, you can change to another weapon and back to the flamethrower. That'll remove it as well.

Oh, and by the way, this update seems to remove all progress on the Combined Fire achievement, if you haven't got it yet.
