Team Fortress 2 Launched as early as 2007, Valve has continued to update category-based FPS since then. Although not always as often as fans would like. and during all these updates For nearly two decades, the bug that caused BLU Scouts to have the wrong color pants was never fixed. That changed yesterday.
On October 24, without much fanfare, Valve rolls out a relatively minor update for its free shooting games Team Fortress 2. As you’d expect, this small patch fixes and tweaks various bugs and bugs, but one fix buried in the patch notes grabs attention Team Fortress 2′The most loyal fan.
- Fixed an issue with BLU Scouts using incorrect team color pants
Without any context, this might look like another small bug that Valve is fixing, but it’s actually a problem TF2 Since its release. Although fans have pointed this out in the past, it has never been addressed. Blu Scout pants have been brown for the past 17 years, which is incorrect. His pants should be gray, like all the other classes on the blue team. Brown pants are for red team members. However, this mistake lasted for nearly twenty years, despite evidence.
Then, suddenly Valve fixed it. Blu Scout’s pants are now gray, which is nice, although it also means A bunch of community-created cosmetics Because that character looks ugly because they are designed with brown pants.
Why did it take 17 years for Valve to fix this well-known problem? TF2 Loophole? We don’t know, and Valve is known to not explain many of their decisions or plans, so your guess is as good as mine.
However, I have a theory about the change. This time last year, Valve fixes a very old bug half life Animations involving monsters. I think as the year comes to an end, and with the holidays approaching, Valve might let the developers patch it, and maybe that’s why this patch popped up. Maybe someone has a little free time and uses it to jump in TF2 and correct this error?
Or maybe Valve just likes to tease fans? Maybe both! Either way, Scout’s pants have finally found the right color, and we can all rest easy knowing the world is a better place.
