    Increase your download speed by switching your download region somewhere weird.

    I'm getting it from Ukraine around 700kbps

    HOW MAKE DO

    View> Settings> Download+Cloud> Download Region> Somewhere weird> Restart Steam

    Not Ukraine though, that'll bog me down. :mrgreen:

    I shall commemorate today's addition of romanian language support by stealing their downloads

    If the Southern Hospitality has a bleed effect to, I wonder what it's downside is? (Unless it winds up being a clone of the Shiv.)

    Shiv is just used to track DR spies. the length nerf hurts more than the damage, I think.

    800KB/s from South America, better than US right now I suppose.

    EDIT: The play list for all servers should be a few good maps, and the three new maps. :(

    Yeah, but what's the downside to the weapon? It can't be a general damage nerf, otherwise it's just a clone of the Shiv.

    my guess is 20 metal per hit instead of 25.

    I imagine far too many engies per team. As long as we don't get All Talk on, it shouldn't be too bad. Too much squealing otherwise...

    By the way, if I did my counting right, this is update #137

    EDIT: The TF wiki has this up at the moment for the Southern Hospitality
    On Hit: Bleed for 5 seconds
    No random critical hits
    20% fire damage vulnerability on wearer

    If that's true, then yuck, yuck, yuck.
