Team Fortress 2 Classified 3.2.0 is live, and the Chilling Halloween Special runs for 17 days. Restart to apply it; launch to wear a scary mask. Day 2 reworks the Mine Layer, Harvester, and Hunting Revolver, overhauls the Loadout menu, and adds sprays and a custom main menu track. Full notes: Day 2 update page.

• Masks for all main classes; VIPs are exceptionally scary on Halloween maps.
• Civilian ghost costume; Ghostly Civilians periodically scare enemies in line of sight. Server ConVars include tf2c_vip_scary; defaults: radius 192, angle 45, stuntime 3, prestuntime 0.25, stuncooldown 1.
• 5 new Halloween sprays, 2 main menu backgrounds, 1 main menu music track.
• New maps Dreadful and Spookyside, returning Manor. Added map files vipr_drizzle_event, td_sunnyside_event, cp_manor_event; td_sunnyside updated.

Mine Layer: No proximity detonation. Mines shine a visible tripwire and detonate when crossed. More damage/radius; arm only on ground with longer arm time; chargeable like stickybombs; owner glow outline through walls; original size; slide like pucks; stick to walls/ceilings; no expiry after death; enemies can destroy them immediately after launch.

Harvester: Afterburn ticks no longer heal directly. Charge builds passively from afterburn without weapon active. Crits are wide sweeping multi-enemy attacks synced to viewmodel. While equipped, applied afterburn lasts half normal duration.

Hunting Revolver: Zoom vignette; center-screen tracers when zoomed; new firing/zoom sounds. Unzoomed: full firerate, headshots mini-crit. Zoomed: 25% slower firerate, headshots full crit. Headshots now affected by falloff.

Other: Spy max speed 107% (320hu/s). Nail Gun spread +66%, reload 1.15s to 1.3s. R.P.G. no extra rocket-jump self-damage (keeps extra push), reloads 25% faster while rocket-jumping. Rejuvenator, Überspritze, Shock Therapy, and Sniper Rifle get fixes. Sniper Rifle tracers fire from center when scoped; movement/attack inputs ignored during start-round freeze (tf2c_attack_during_freeze). Other fixes include Coilgun no longer instantly reloading, Sapper usable in Medieval mode, Heavies unable to keep Miniguns revved while taunting, and minor projectile/chicken fixes.

• Loadout: New layout/styling; list/grid weapon buttons; team-colored bucket icons; updated team/class icons; Medieval/Randomizer modifiers shown; closes with loadout key (M default); horizontal option in loadout.res.
• Quickswitch: Revamped from Live TF2. Select class and items. Hold default ALT, choose loadout; release to respawn if new class selected or change items in respawn room.
• Class Selection: Restored enhanced tips; tip board shows class name; tips dynamically sized and configurable per gamemode. Scout's second tip says "Push payloads faster" in Payload maps.
• Other UI: many new default crosshairs that scale with resolution; new SVG Domination/Revenge kill feed icons; weapon selection HUD shows current weapons on spawn (Randomizer default); humans/bots counted separately; observer crosshairs off by default (cl_observercrosshair); >99s respawn timers show "Respawning next round".

• Re-added birthday/Santa hats, Bottle break effects and broken swing sounds, explosion-affected ragdolls (tf2c_explosion_ragdolls, default 0), and tf2c_nemesis_relationships/tf2c_show_nemesis_relationships for disabling dominations server/client-side.
• Randomizer: randomized projectiles re-enabled; added Mad Milk Syringes, Bleed on Hit, Projectile Penetration, and Mini-Crit Boost on Kill; crit rate bonus now melee-only; adjusted spread, blast, and ammo attributes; several powerful attributes are mutually exclusive.
• Added toss suicide command and tf2c_infinite_ammo 2 for infinite clip. Server no longer requests Loadout on class change; client sends all class Loadout info on initial spawn; spawns happen instantly instead of delayed by at least 0.1s.
• Jarate-coated players no longer tinted yellow; they show an overhead Jarate icon, noticeable only on custom-content servers. YellowLevel proxy non-functional; tf_colorblindassist removed and behavior always enabled. Player eye and fired bullet angles now networked with 16-bit float precision, fixing Sniper Rifle dot/tracer mismatch. Cheat protection removed from tf_always_deathanim.
• Arena can combine with other gamemodes. Custom weapon/scripting updates add crosshair, bodygroup, precision, afterburn-duration, and burn-immunity options, plus asset fixes.

Team Fortress 2 Classified 3.1.2 is out now and will apply automatically when you restart the game. The headline changes: Classic-Vision has been removed ("see you next year!"), a new Sentry Tracer bucket system is in for performance, and both the Dynamite Pack and Rejuvenator got buffs.

• Classic-Vision is gone.
• Sentry Tracer bucket system caps tracer creation at 45 per second; tf2c_sentrytracer_bucketsize controls the limit. It is intended to replace tf2c_sentrygun_oldtracer.
• Added dynamically-textured building gibs.
• Rockets now spawn with their team's skin; flare projectiles change skins when reflected.
• r_pixelfog is now cheat-protected; MvM and Doomsday Event assets precache correctly.
• Fixes include Heavy Minigun dry fire/spin, Pyro viewmodel hands with Flamethrower, Engineer's removed battle cry, filter_tf_damaged_by_weapon_in_slot, Civilian upgrade-station crash, MvM map-load crash, burning overlay fade, bots disguising as inactive teams, "Don't Fear the Reaper" award, Teleporter/Jump Pad effects, cannot find bg_(mapname) errors, missing chair materials, Anti-Aircraft Cannon empty-clip sounds, ÜberCharge deny sound spam, and duplicate low-health building beeps.

• Rejuvenator clip size increased to 10 (from 8) and fire rate to 0.75s (from 0.85s). Its projectile can now explode on teammates on the same tick it's fired, and tf2c_debug_rejuvenator draws its box traces.
• Fixed Coilgun charge-up animation and a wrong Rejuvenator muzzleflash.
• Civilian's damage boost now glows like other mini-crit boosts and extends its healing buff to other mini-crit sources; Civilian also respawns instantly when changing loadout in the respawn room.

• Rejuvenator and wearables can now roll random attributes (double Gunboats fans rejoice!).
• Chaotic Item Randomizer lets players taunt with any weapon; attributes update when opening the Loadout menu.
• New melee range multiplier (0.5x-3.0x) joins the pool; removed horizontal-spread mods for non-shotguns. Speed snaps to nearest 5%, bullets-per-shot to nearest 50%.
• Randomizer attributes now match item-schema classnames and translated entity classnames; enabling Randomizer appends randomizer to sv_tags. Fixed Anti-Aircraft Cannon/Sniper Rifle breakage, Medieval Mode item breaks, and plr_nightfall stage 3 loadouts not randomizing.

• Removed dom_canalzon, rctf_epicenter, 4tdm_gasworks, and ff_dustbowl.
• Fixed font kerning and full glyph ranges; crosshair preview background upgraded; removed the Advanced Options button from Legacy Options.
• Added disconnect confirmation (disabled via checkbox), armor support to floating healthbar target ID, clearer friends-list online states, more accurate scoreboard ping, and Minmode HUD support for game_text_tf.
• Target IDs are decoupled from classes and can show healing, ÜberCharge, umbrella boost, and hauled building info.
• "On the bright side..." display time cut to 10s (from 20s).
• Added viewmodel offset settings and viewmodel_offset_enable, plus Discord Rich Presence options in Options.

• Reveal effects on cloaked/disguised victims are less screen-flashy.
• Fixed brass_eject_model and Sandvich bite effects respecting mod_lunchbox_critboostable.
• Fixed pixelated sky_harvest_01 HDR materials, missing chair armrest materials, moved hud/medal_* materials, and adjusted YLW Toolbox hue.

The team is still looking for a backend web developer, with a new blog system as the main project; contact them if that's you.

Team Fortress 2 Classified 3.1.1 has been released and will apply automatically on restart. The update adds French localization, a togglecond console command, and crosshair transparency controls, alongside fixes for gameplay, Randomizer, maps, UI, and scripting.

• Airblast now resets projectile positions to where the Pyro saw them; the grace period works correctly, and projectiles are no longer lag-compensated when the target tick is older than their lifetime.

The Team Fortress 30th Anniversary Update is live now as Team Fortress 2 Classified Version 3.1.0. The event begins today, August 24, 2026, and the update applies automatically when you restart the game. The update page carries expanded patch notes, wallpapers, and cursor skins.

• Classic-Vision is on by default and togglable in Options: it swaps class models and the Sentry model for QuakeWorld Team Fortress versions, replaces the Announcer with Team Fortress Classic's VOX announcer, and switches gib kills and chat notifications to classic sounds.
• A QuakeWorld Team Fortress anniversary holiday runs August 23–25, enabling a QWTF-inspired main menu logo, background video and soundscape, a Quake/Half-Life inspired menu music track, Quake-inspired chicken variants, and a Quake-themed beach ball.
• Holiday windows were also updated: TF Birthday is now October 9–11, Halloween October 15–November 1, and Christmas December 15–January 1.

• New Half-Life-style armor for TF30 maps: 80% of damage is absorbed and reduced by 50%.
• 13 achievements return from Team Fortress 2 Classic, plus 6 new QWTF/Quake-inspired sprays.
• A new VPlugins folder (controlled by cfg/vplugins.cfg) gives servers scripts that run automatically on every map.
• The Randomizer mode from TF2 Classic was rebuilt. Instead of one tf2c_randomizer ConVar, it now uses tf2c_randomizer_classes, tf2c_randomizer_items and tf2c_randomizer_attributes. Setting items to 1 randomizes only the current class' weapons; 2 allows weapons from any class. The loadout screen shows randomized weapons and attributes. The config is cleaner too: attribute names replace numeric IDs, filters work and can target weapon slots, and values can be restricted to a single value, forced to integers, or swapped based on if_less_than/if_greater_than.
• New Randomizer CVars: tf2c_randomizer_attributes_roll_count (default 6), roll_fail_chance (default 40), roll_projectile_chance (default 15), and tf2c_randomizer_chickendrops for randomized chicken drops.

• Weapon reloads now prefer the scripted ReloadTime like TF2 Classic, with controllable coyote reload via tf2c_coyote_reload (default 0.20).
• The Rejuvenator's ÜberCharge drains only once its generator lands; an unlanded generator self-destructs after 15 seconds.
• Spawn camp protection drops from 6 seconds to 1 second once you leave the spawn room. Medics now prefer their secondary on spawn.
• Stickybomb Launchers no longer detonate non-stickybomb projectiles; nail/syringe and viewmodel fixes landed, and MvM Medic shields now block projectiles, not just hitscan.
• Four temporary maps join the rotation: dom_canalzon (QWTF), rctf_epicenter and 4tdm_gasworks (TFC), and ff_dustbowl (Fortress Forever). vip_avanti and cp_mountainlab got targeted fixes.

• The main menu is overhauled with a rotating challenge panel (achievement progress/class stats), an in-game Steam friends list with direct joining, and updated visuals.
• Engineer building status shows low-ammo and low-health icons, and teleporter stats only count teammate uses. Team and class select now support ultrawide.
• Soldier and Engineer headshots have a 1/6 chance to send helmets flying with a special sound. The Brick gets a unique taunt and draw sounds; the Coilgun gets reload sounds; the Sniper Rifle and Hunting Revolver gain zoom, full-charge, near-miss, and distant-fire sounds.
• Medi Gun and Kritzkrieg beams were overhauled, with wobble restored and better muzzle alignment. A fix also makes the Shake UserMessage unreliable to prevent stacking that presented an epileptic concern.

• Payload Race is properly supported: bots split into pushing/defending roles, fall back to defense when behind, and roam when their cart is at max speed.
• Multi-team and VIP behavior are broadly improved, and bots can use flags as primary objectives.
• Bots queue for teleporters, avoid and destroy stickybomb traps, remember sentries that hurt them, reflect projectiles with reaction-time-based timing, and handle more projectile types.
• tf_bot_quota_mode balance adds only enough bots to balance teams.

Update 1.0.4 for Team Fortress 2 Classified Authoring Tools is live now and applies automatically when you restart the tools. The August 24, 2026 update adds new mapping entities, expanded game rules inputs, and keyboard input fixes.

Mappers can now use these entities in the FGD: monster_turret, monster_miniturret, func_charger, and item_healthammokit.

func_respawnroom gains the AllowFlag KeyValue, letting mappers choose whether a flag carrier can enter the respawn room. tf_gamerules gets a SetScaleAffectsDamageForce bool input that controls whether a player's model scale affects knockback distance, including blast jumps; it is enabled by default. team_control_point_master receives two float inputs: HideCapIndex to hide a cap index and ShowCapIndex to reveal it.

Separately, the update fixes keyboard input issues.

The Team Fortress 30th Anniversary Event begins tomorrow, August 24, and runs through August 31, 2026, as part of Team Fortress 2 Classified 3.1.0. It marks 30 years since the original Team Fortress team-deathmatch mod launched for Quake on August 24, 1996.

For the next week, players can dive into "Classic-Vision" and four deep-cut maps from previous Team Fortress games, left as untouched as possible. The developers describe it as embracing the past "in all its beauty and terror" and becoming "uselessly experienced" on those maps.

The full event details, including Team Fortress history, are available on the dedicated update page.

Team Fortress 2 Classified's 3.0.12 update is live now (July 31, 2026) and will apply automatically on restart. The key change: Flame Thrower flames are now lag-compensated like hitscan, so they feel consistent regardless of ping. Rockets and grenades can be rewound on airblast to match the Pyro's view, airblasted enemies keep less air control when moving back toward the Pyro, and Nail Gun/Syringe Gun projectiles are also lag-compensated. Explosions now have leniency against stairs and ledges. Italian language support, ejected casing/shell sounds, blinking player models, and a new default spray (with randomized first-launch sprays) are also included.

• Dying during setup time or within 6 seconds of spawning gives instant respawn wave time. Server hosts control this with tf2c_spawncamp_window_default; mappers can override it via spawncamp_window_override on tf_gamerules.
• mp_scrambleteams_mode returns with five balancing algorithms: score/connection time (default), K/D, score, class, or random. Modes 0-2 also run a class pass that searches for cheap swaps to improve team composition.
• Scrambles can trigger automatically at round end based on score gaps, win streaks, or stalled objectives. mp_scrambleteams now accepts 3 (mid-round scramble, minimal moves, no restart) and 4 (schedule for next round).
• VIPs, Medics with full charge, and Engineers with nests are ignored by scrambles. Vote-based scrambles do not restart the round by default; existing scrambling plugins may conflict.
• Autobalance now keeps trying instead of giving up when the first three checked players are alive.

• Flame Thrower is rebased on Team Comtress 2's summer 2026 changes: dense flame clumps are distinguished from stray particles, stale flames scale down by heat, the short-burst accuracy exploit is fixed, and DPS/scale/tickrate application are adjusted.
• Twin Barrel's third-person reload is fixed; Cyclops antenna and Fuse Refusal exploit are fixed; Coilgun can no longer stall charging by holding alt-fire.
• Medi Guns: VIP Haste/Mini-Crit buffs now affect heal rate correctly. Rejuvenator: smoother Über expand/fade, true sphere area, consistent overheal, heal grenades no longer collide with projectiles and now make sounds, heal-rate modifiers apply, no ammo pack consumption on partial clip, proper third-person reload, no false enemy-intelligence notification, and killing a fully charged Rejuvenator Medic counts as a drop.
• Tranquilizer Gun's slow no longer ends early on a second hit in the same life. Dispensers no longer boost ÜberCharge build rate, regen stops at the correct distance, and double metal on contact is fixed.
• Sentry Guns use particle bullet tracers; Mini-Sentries and some Energy Weapons support GRN/YLW particles. Fixed invisible nail projectiles, jigglebone models disappearing when shot, +use pushing physics projectiles, and arrows changing direction in water.
• Map updates: 4koth_frigid stair clip, nodraw roof, and locker skin fixes; pl_goldrush collision, lighting, soundscape, and optimization work; vip_harbor and arena_ravine tweaks; vip_badwater correctly renamed to "Badwater Basin."
• UI: batched metal HUD updates, per-player voice volume in Mute Players, next level shown above scoreboard, enemy info in intermission scoreboard, vote timers/colors, Streamer Mode avatar handling, underscore/font glyph fixes, and scoreboard spectate fixed. CTF HUD/flag colors, Über overlay, Loadout bodygroups, Dynamite Pack defusals, Arena win panel, and building upgrade display are also fixed.
• GRN/YLW teams: no airblasting during truces, no blood from truce attacks, restricted commands blocked, and tournament mode works with inactive teams.
• Other fixes: startup crash from Sentry crash reporting, PD/RD pickup crash, Meteor Shower Halloween spell crash, invalid class join, lastdisguise remembering friendly/enemy disguise across team switches, disguise -2 setting own-team disguise, impulse 101 filling item meters, player ranks using a new endpoint, and restored sayecho, tf2c_maxspeed, tf2c_disable_proximity_voice, r_FadeProps, and FlagGlowColor.

• Scripting is updated to Squirrel 3.2 to match live Team Fortress 2, adds C_BasePlayer::GetUserID(), and fixes damage_blocked firing for ÜberCharge.
• Melee deflect attributes now apply to enemies, and mult_minigun_spinup_time is no longer applied twice.
• Content: train boxcar textures for RED/BLU/neutral, updated YLW invulnerability textures, higher-res funny gibs, and reworked player gibs with no root bone, improved head jigglebones, and flame particles that can attach without a hitbox.

The Team Fortress 2 Classified Authoring Tools have been updated to version 1.0.3. The patch applies automatically when you restart the tools, and it introduces Portuguese (Brazil) and Traditional Chinese support alongside several FGD corrections.

• Added Portuguese (Brazil) and Traditional Chinese language support.
• Fixed missing TF2C-specific conditions in the FGD, resolving issue #965.
• Fixed various item_teamflag KeyValues in the FGD not being used in code.
• Updated localization files.

• Fixed the right-click context menu missing borders.
