Team Fortress 2 Update Released
Product Update - Valve
Updates to Team Fortress 2 have been released. The updates will be applied automatically when your Steam client is restarted. The major changes include:

Team Fortress 2
Fixed players seeing cloaked Spies when they should be fully cloaked
Updated the Homewrecker
It now damages enemy sappers on friendly buildings
Fixed items not displaying correctly while playing back a demo
Badge hire dates now display the time in GMT

I would particularly like to point out:
Updated the Homewrecker
It now damages enemy sappers on friendly buildings

surprised Is this a game changer? Now pyros can spy check and even if the engie dies, the pyro can still take off the sapper. Have pyros become engie's new best friend?

I guess the Pyro really wants to help his best friend out so he made the hammer destroy enemy sappers. That makes the game more harder now

Well, they nerfed the s**t out of the pyro, so they had to do something.

One update:
Nerfed the Flamethrower --> Improved the Air Blast = AWESOME.

Next update:
Fixed the Backburner, Flare gun -->They go back to what they used to be, instead of keeping the nerfed values of the good ol' FT.

Personally, the improved Air Blast is a freakin' BLESSING. Now it's possible to use it more efficiently, thanks to the reduced cost and smaller cooldown.

And the Homewrecker? Went from "Never gonna use that Piece of s**t" to "What piece of s**t?"

Now it's an additional option for those defensive-minded Pyros that help Spy-check around bases.

Mind you, it's not gonna make being a Spy any easier, as not everyone can get the Homewrecker, it being a 100% random drop, but it will provide some relief to the hard work of Engineering.

Thing is, I find nobody using the Homewrecker because it's more fun to burn buildings and the Axetinguisher is much better. Secondly, too many pyro noobs who don't know how to extinguish flaming friendlies so fat chance they'll know about this new feature.
