I will be rolling through updating servers starting at 7:15 PM EST. It usually takes me 30 minutes max to get them all done so watch for them going down and then make sure you get the latest download by restarting Steam.

Patch Notes 30 October 2015
This week’s patch was about introducing an additional equipment slot so we could fill it with PMN mines for the Terrorists. All the necessary logic was added for the mines including animations, event logic, scoreboard adjustments for stats and team kills and killfeed presentation The addition of mines will increase the need for communication within your team as it is possible to kill your teammates. Everyone should be running the map now with eyes wide open!
Other improvements include tweaks to Temple and WolfRun to improve in game FPS and a new install application for H-Hour’s PunkBuster application. When you first run the game after the patch, you will be asked for permission to run this new application. Please make sure you click on OK and I Agree and follow the directions. This also means we are an official game for them and included in their PBSetup tool that can be used to update files for anyone with problem installs.
One note from the build we would like to pass along: We are aware that a file that contained the grass and some of the foliage for Sismis was missed during the build process. After consultations between the devs and the testers, it was felt this was not a showstopper and should not prevent the release so we are going ahead.
As we always like to do, please consider the use and logic of the PMN mines first pass and provide your feedback or suggestions in this thread. I can say the dev testers and I had a lot of fun coming up with wonky ways to use these today so I think the community will enjoy these as well. Remember, tell us what you think!
New/Adjusted Features:
Temple:
