[Holy shit, it was 17 years?!?!?]
But it released with a tragic, almost unforgivable bug: when you
played the Scout character on the Blue team, his pants were the wrong
color. Finally, in 2024, Valve has announced in its latest patch
notes:
- Fixed BLU Scout using the incorrect team color pants
[I'll be honest; I have no idea what this is all about. I'd
no idea you could even see these guys' pants in the game, or
why I should care. But apparently it was an issue for
some players. To each their own.]
This change itself has -unsurprisingly- caused some consternation
amongst the fans, but that's par for the course when it comes to the
video-gaming audience. But I think there's a more important message we
should take away from this update.
After 17 years, Valve has fixed this most crucial and difficult bug in
one of their most important games. Team Fortress 2 is now fixed. That
means they can focus their efforts on other projects.
In other words:
"Half Life 3" confirmed.
;-)
After 17 years people had accepted that "that was how it is supposed to be!"
And it took them 17 years to fix a minor art glitch? *shakes head*
