Notes are going to be much too long to post in their entirety here, please head to https://www.reddit.com/r/tf2/comments/77pkc8/major_tf2_update_for_102017_jungle_inferno_update/ or https://steamdb.info/patchnotes/2217263/ for them.

Rumor has it:

- Please give a round of applause to both /u/xPaw and /u/medli20 (and /u/Bobsplosion) for their OCR magic!

- This MAJOR update finally brings an end to the record longest drought that has lasted since 12/21/16 (Smissmas 2016), with the last non-seasonal update having occurred on 7/7/16

- For reference, here's a comparison of some long waits:

- The wait for Jungle Update was exactly 9 months and 29 days since Smissmas 2016, or 1 year, 3 months and 13 days since Meet Your Match

- The wait for a reworked de_dust2 in CS:GO took 1 year and 5 days

- The wait for AMD Vega took exactly 1 year, 4 months, 16 days, 3 hours and 15 minutes, and then some for retail availability

- The wait for what would eventually be Windows Vista took 5 years, 3 months and 5 days (or 2 years, 5 months and 3 days due to XP SP2 and the Longhorn reset)

- Here's the mammoth GameTracking diff, containing HUD file updates, strings, and a whole lot more: https://github.com/SteamDatabase/GameTracking-TF2/commit/fc9f52ae9c359fb3735ef703bd3c03a9d63fedb3

- Size is ~1.2 GB - data capped users should have their preparations in place

I'm surprised the GC is even breathing at this point, it sure wasn't during Meet Your Match.

Honestly I think this update has been relatively bug-free, from what I've seen. Almost all of the issues (and there are a lot of them) are because the servers keep going down, not because of actual client issues. Because of that, hopefully we'll have a working game tomorrow rather than in a week.

If you're having any issues try running with the default HUD and if that still doesn't work, try launching with -default. If you're still having issues it's probably just server related.

Item servers are down. Mine showed up in my inventory because I bought it very very quickly after my install finished (and I have very fast internet/a fast SSD so that was very quick), and while it's in my inventory, it's non-functional because of the servers going down constantly.

The ConTracker needs not only the item servers, but also the game coordinator, so have fun with that.

TF2 update #2 for late 10/20/17 (10/21/17 UTC):

Via HLDS:

Valve- Fixed not being able to redeem War Paints
- Fixed War Paints not displaying properly in the backpack
- Fixed a bug where the first shot fired from pistols was off-center
- Fixed the ConTracker UI not working properly in DirectX 8
- Fixed being able to select a style for the ConTracker in the loadout screen
- Fixed not being able to use the Thermal Thruster after taunting with it

Rumor has it:

- Continue to expect widespread extreme GC instability and queue gridlock for a long while...likely continuing overnight through to tomorrow

- Do you happen to be fluent (or near-fluent) in another non-English language? If so, consider signing up for the Steam Translation Server to help translate the ~600 strings added earlier today

- A few HUD file updates, and some texture and particle updates: https://github.com/SteamDatabase/GameTracking-TF2/commit/0b3de1825cd08b3ff45559525507410801419b1f
