Valve just reveled the details of their latest update for Left 4 Dead. Apart from server and back end issue fixes that wel all wanted so badly, the developers seemed to think it would be funny to upgrade the Tank. Oh sure, very funny Gabe, give that nasty son of a ***** new powers!

The big fella now has a big swing to match his big, fat ass. Valve gave it a nice wide attack  to hit multiple Survivors in one swing. Great. A tough brute with splash damage. Well, makes the game much more exciting, which I believe to be one of Left 4 Dead's strongest selling points.

Here's the rest of the details:
  • Fixed sv_search_key appearing in server browser
  • Fixed issue where changing the sv_search_key did not update the master correctly
  • Fixed master server issue with Linux fork mode that affected availability of Valve dedicated servers
  • Missed from the previous list changes: Fixed acheivements to match stats. Past achievements not previously awarded will be shown in the game UI
