For PC users the update will be applied automatically via Steam. Meanwhile, the update will be made available to Xbox 360 players in the coming weeks.

General
- Fixed Survivors being able to climb surfaces marked for versus infected only

- Improved loading time
- Fixed mini-gun physics exploit

Thanks for posting it up actually Ruddles-

Handy for someone like me who has the game but needs to re-install it and haven't played for a while.

Really looking forward to getting stuck into both TF2 and L4D again actually... the urge is returning!
