Valve will end its support of Steam on Windows XP and Windows Vista in two weeks, on 1/1/19. Additionally, Valve is also ending its support of Steam on Mac OS X Lion, Mountain Lion, Mavericks, and Yosemite on 1/1/19 as well. Any future TF2 updates that moves the minimum Steam client version beyond the last one available for XP/Vista will render it unplayable unless you upgrade Windows. Any future TF2 updates that moves the minimum Steam client version beyond the last one available for Lion through Yosemite will also render it unplayable unless you grab Mac OS X El Capitan or newer from the Mac App Store.

people aren't talking about snake last changes but pushing last on top left will be way more attractive now with the widened space there. Slow pushing sniper, or just walking an uber in, etc, become so much easier with more space to use.

EDIT: ROFL I'M RETARDED THEY DIDN'T DO SHIT TO TOP RIGHT/LEFT (SIDE WITH THE TOWER). I'M JUST STUPID AND THOUGHT IT WAS BIGGER AND HAD 2 OTHER IDIOTS BACK ME UP.

I'm gonna hype myself up for disappointment by imagining that Valve aren't doing anything for smissmas because they're working on the heavy update.

Maybe I'm just poorly informed but why does everyone believe a Heavy update is coming?

All I remember from Meat your Match is that whoever won would get a class pack while the other wouldn't. Did this Heavy update get confirmed in a non-official source?

That's straight from the Meat your Match page. http://www.teamfortress.com/meetyourmatch/war.php
