The Mac Update was the first major update for Team Fortress 2 that included support for a platform other than Windows. The patch was released on June 10, 2010, and its main feature was providing the ability to play the game on Mac OSX machines. The Update also included a Training mode and its associated map Target, added help sections to the Loadout, Backpack and Crafting screens, and also completely overhauled the main menu. The patch also added the ability to play KOTH maps and Dustbowl in Offline Practice Mode against bots, and made a number of other minor changes. After the Update went live, the Mac Update trailer was released as was a non-canon Apple-themed comic strip featuring the Soldier, Scout, Heavy and Saxton Hale.
The release of the Mac Update also offered players the opportunity to acquire a new Miscellaneous item, the Earbuds. The Earbuds were originally awared to players who launched Team Fortress 2 on a Mac between June 10, 2010 and June 14, 2010, however the offer was later extended to August 16th.[1] The Earbuds were only the second promotional item to be included in Team Fortress 2, and were the first promotional item to be released that was not directly related to Valve or any of their products.
