TF2 Update! Competitive Cvars, Gameplay Changes, Custom X-Hairs!

For the full list see SteamPowered.

Most importantly!

• Added Viewmodel FOV slider to advanced multiplayer options (can now get larger, thinner weapon models, for those that want to see them anyway). Added a hide viewmodel option to advanced multiplayer options (for those that dont!).
• Added custom crosshair support
• Added crosshair image, scale, and color settings to the Options->Multiplayer settings tab
• Added “tf_damage_disablespread” convar to disable the 25% damage spread on all damage
• Added class limit support to tournament mode
• Set the “tf_tournament_classlimit_X” convars to the max number of class X allowed
• Added “tf_tournament_hide_domination_icons” convar, that allows a tournament mode server to force clients not to display domination icons over their nemeses
• Reduced random damage spread applied to all player damage from +-25% to +-10% (no more 136 nades, now they do much more understandable numbers).
• Stealthed spies are no longer able to pickup the intelligence. They must uncloak first. (Should improve actual tactics on ctf maps, rather than spy spamming).
• Increased soldier primary ammo count from 16 to 20

This is AWESOME! :D!
(except that with tf_damage_disablespread 1 a medic always dies with 100% bodyshot from sniper)

> Holy crap. Is there something left to complain about?
sure. i still cant change FOV. i really dont care about weapon fov, cause i hide it with cl_bob… or new command i dont care.
i still cant watch big finals, cause valve cant fix the damn anti (d)dos stv shit, even after strange community patch.
reducing damage spread is ok, but still not enough to make me happy 🙂
