The Dark Harvest Festival

The Dark Harvest Festival is now being celebrated in Haven and will end on November 1st! This annual event honors the mischievous Punkin King in order to ensure a healthy fall harvest for Haven. All Clockwork Tunnels-style levels like Power Complexes and Blast Furnaces now have a chance of featuring special rooms inhabited by the Punkin King. Simply hop on the party pad and discover if the Punkin King has candy tokens or something else in store for you!

There is also a Prestige Mission available daily throughout the event that gives you a guaranteed encounter with the Punkin King.

Both via the Arcade or the Prestige Mission, Tier 1 awards the fewest candy tokens while Tier 3 the most candy tokens.

Candy tokens come in three varieties (Hard Candy, Sour Candy and Sweet Candy) and can be exchanged in the Haven Town Square for festive masks and prize boxes!

Updates to Team Fortress 2, Day of Defeat: Source and Half-Life 2: Deathmatch have been released. The updates will be applied automatically when your Steam client is restarted. The major changes include:


Source Engine Changes (TF2, DoD:S, HL2:DM)

• Fixed the "disconnect" command regression from the previous update
  
• Fixed tools like vbsp working with new model format
  
• Fixed a con_logfile ConVar exploit
  

Team Fortress 2

• Fixed a common "FindModel" crash for replays
  
• Fixed the Crafty Hair not using styles for the yellow and brown hair
  
• Improved the "Restore" UI for customizing items in backpack
  
• Fixed floating arrows on carried objects
  
• Mann vs. Machine
  • Added a penalty system to deter players from repeatedly abandoning Mann Up games
    
  • Corrected the respawn time for the Mannslaughter mission
    
  • Updated MissionCycle behavior. Servers will always cycle to a mission listed in the MissionCycle file.

- Enable controller navigation of menus to support Big Picture mode.

- Fixed special infected not catching fire if they were already burning from incendiary ammo.

- Fixed the first maps in Dead Center and Swamp Fever not using the boss spawning rules for starting maps, which are more restrictive than other maps.
