Valve Software a sorti coup sur coup deux patchs pour Team Fortress 2. Les changements concernent uniquement le Cow Mangler qui a été un peu équilibré, avec un temps de rechargement plus long et quelques corrections de bugs. Le deuxième patch est un peu plus conséquent, mais concerne aussi beaucoup le Cow Mangler 5000 qui, décidément, a posé de nombreux problèmes depuis son apparition.

La liste complète des changements se trouve dans la suite de la nouvelle.
