Via the Steam store:

Valve- Updated Casual Mode

- Fixed a dedicated server crash caused by projectiles from the Pomson 6000 and the Righteous Bison
- Fixed being able to damage yourself to gain Hype while using The Soda Popper
- Changed how much metal destroyed objects drop and fixed destroyed teleporters dropping more metal than intended
- Fixed the Bonesaw not working properly while using viewmodel minmode
- Fixed the Spy and Engineer not being able to equip the Prinny Machete

Rumor has it:

I can get 200-400 frames with a config.

120-200 on MatchMaking

30-100 on Casual

Biggest reason not to play casual.
But matchmaking is pretty swell.

Casual only forces graphics if you have played matchmaking. If you restart your game you can play casual with a fps config and dx8.

Glad to see I am not the only person with massive fps drops in Casual. Looking forward to playing more MM from now on.

Casual doesn't force graphics onto you, you can use a graphics config. When you first load up MM from that point on it forces graphics onto you unless you re-exec your config or you restart your game. So if you wanna go from Matchmaking straight to casual, either restart your game or re-exec your fps config. Simple as that ;p
