In a surprise update today, Valve has released a patch for PC users of Left 4 Dead which fixes the widely publicized and long-standing quick melee exploit. For L4D fans, this update, which follows a much more significant patch released on 1/14/09, bodes well for a game in which many fans were starting to lose faith after rampant bugs and several weeks of silence from the developers over the holiday season.

The full update notes are as follows: - Fixed an exploit with melee where swapping weapons ignored the intended delay between swings. - In Versus mode, the Tanks’ health now reflects the damage he takes from burning. - Fixed an exploit related to the “joinclass” command source
