Today's Team Fortress 2 update is mainly for bug fixing purposes. However, a couple of interesting changes were also included. First up, Valve added a ConVar that lets you use the world model view that was previously only used if you had an Oculus Rift. Secondly, this update disables plugins that let users connect to secure game servers when they shouldn't.
