No major update yet, but in Beta they're testing more Heavy and Spy nerfs, plus ongoing testing on Soldier and Pyro items.
Heavy:
- Removed Tomislav's faster spin up, as well as the -50 health that was being tested earlier.
- Picking up a Sandvich you drop yourself now fills your Sandvich bar instead of healing you.
Spy:
- The Enforcer's cloak penalty now affects the decloak period instead of the initial cloaking time. (penalty is now 0.5 second increase in time taken to decloak)
- The Enforcer now disables your ability to see enemy health unless you're disguised.
Pyro:
- 10% damage increase to all flamethrowers.
- Removed +10% damage bonus from the Backburner (it still does the same damage as in the main game, but is now on par with the stock Flamethrower's damage)
- The Degreaser now has a -10% damage penalty in addition to its normal stats (which means it does slightly less damage than it does now)
Soldier:
- Removed the speed boost when damaged aspect of The Equalizer. Also removed the inability to be healed by Medics while wielding it (it still suppresses the Medic! voice command, though)
