Team Fortress 2 Manniversary:

Added several dozen community items in celebration of the Manniversary
Added loadout presets -- each class can now store four complete loadouts, including weapons and cosmetic items, and change between them with the press of a button.

Bots:
TFBots have a percentage chance of noticing weapon fire based on their difficulty level. Easy bots are fairly oblivious, and Expert bots notice pretty much everything.
TFBots now treat certain weapon attacks as "quiet" (Spy knife, cloaking/uncloaking, some melee weapons, fists, etc). "Quiet" weapons can only be heard by TFBots when nearby, and their chance of being noticed is halved if the environment is "noisy" (ie., lots of non-quiet gunfire going on in the area). This greatly improves Spies ability to backstab TFBots without the entire team immediately turning on them.
bot improvements:
Spy bots are much better about circling around and backstabbing their victims now
Improved Spy bot target selection in some situations (ie: clusters of sentries and enemy players)
Spy bots will give up on an attack and retreat if an enemy sentry gun aims at them
Spy bots now avoid nearby enemies while disguised and/or cloaked so they don't bump into them and give themselves away
Spy bots now have a simple notion of when their “cover is blown" now
Spy bots lead their target's position as they chase them down for a backstab now
Spy bots don't go after victims until setup time has elapsed
Hard and Expert Spy bots avoid looking at their prey until they get close and go for the stab
Easy Spy bots don't avoid enemies, or try to get behind before stabbing
Normal Spy bots don't avoid enemies
Fixed bug where Spy bots would jump against the enemy spawn gates during setup time
Medic bot improvements:
Medic bots stick much closer to running patients now
Medic bots stick much closer to their patient if they have an Ubercharge ready, or are deploying their Uber
Medic bots hide from Sentryguns now, too
Pyro bot improvements:
Pyro bots are less "pushy" with their compression blast, but will use it against Ubers and to get enemies off of a capture point
Other:
Razer Hydra support can be enabled via "sixense_enabled 1" in the console. See
http://sixense.com/tf2 for details.
Added "tf_allow_taunt_switch". Set to 0 for disallowed (default behavior), 1 for old bug behavior, or 2 to allow weapon switching any time during the taunt.
