Valve continues to tweak their extremely popular multiplayer shooter Team Fortress 2 and on Monday the developer released a new patch that may (or may not) upset fans of the Pyro class. The update, released via Steam, has two changes to the flamethrower using character .

One of the issues "fixed" is "backburner's flame critical hits not being recalculated after collision. This meant that it would check if the target was looking away once and after that the flame could score a critical hit again even if the orientation change" Yet another "fix" in the update "added back some damage falloff to the Pyro's flamethrower. Not nearly as extreme as it was before the Pyro class pack." Head to the Steam web site for the full change list.
