this is one hell of a double edged sword update.
so many good things so many "eh" things.

"Reduced intensity of Bleed and Jarate screen effects under DX8."

bscwhy do you need minicrits to kill a melee low health target

I guess it's to hit people running away from long range since no falloff. Really pointless nerf though, since everyone is still gonna use it

-Reduced intensity of Bleed and Jarate screen effects under DX8

WOW. I might just try dx8 again now.

- Added tf_hud_show_servertimelimit to display the server's per-map time limit on the in-game HUD

This sounds pretty neat, like an overlay of the server time left? As in like an additional timer?

- Fixed a bug where full ÜberCharge effects would always show on the client if a player was killed with full ÜberCharge

Thank god, this was much needed

- Escape Plan
- Players receive the Marked-For-Death effect after deploying, and for a short period after holstering.

Why? This seems excessive as hell. :(

- Crusaders Crossbow
- Fixed being able to heal players that are using items that block healing

This also seems excessive, combined with the marked for death addition. Why is valve nerfing the fuck out of this weapon AGAIN?

- Quick-Fix
- Added 50% Overheal
- Über now affects the medic when there's no heal target
- Shotguns with pushback (Force O' Nature) no longer affect players under the effect of Quick-Fix's Über

Freaking awesome!

I don't think i've ever seen so many "Fixed" in a tf2 update. Hooray. Also, no promos!

Thanks Valve!

I can see!!!!

Edit: I just tested the Escape Plan and it seems like the mark stays for ~1.5 seconds after being holstered. Probably wont effect the game too much... we'll see.

On face value I'm loving this update. I hope it's as good as it seems. Might want to test some stuff like the Gunslinger to see if the nerf made it unbannable.
Edit 2: Nevermind the Gunslinger still spawns with full health (which was the main problem IMO). Still, maybe some other weapons are worth giving a try.

why would you nerf the escape plan, by making it so that the distance you create between you and the enemy is irrelevant.

bscwhy do you need minicrits to kill a melee low health target

You don't but to be honest the Escape Plan was fairly broken. Mini crits won't have that much of an effect but will help make it more balanced.

Kissme- Quick-Fix

50% overheal means 25% of base health. Heavy=300+75=375 hp heavy being healed 100.8 hp per second. Yep I think this might be good for last holds if you wipe on mid.

Yeah. Let's be honest very few if any soldiers are going to switch off of Escape Plan because it is so much better then the Shovel. Mini-crits won't make much difference.
