  • Added support for displaying an active Workshop campaign name in your Steam friends list;
  • Added a slider to the settings menu to allow scaling stick sensitivity for gamepads;
  • Fixed issue with overlapping commentary tracks if a commentary track was playing between level loads;
  • Fixed issue where gamepad buttons may be permanently stuck pressed after saving the game;
  • UI fonts updated for better support in Cyrillic languages;
  • Fixed Thai font rendering on Linux;
  • Added initial support for Ukranian and Vietnamese;
  • Various crash fixes when switching between episodes;
  • Fixed soundscape playback for the Citadel menu background map;
  • Removed collision from an underwater tube that speed runners enjoy;
  • Updated localization files.

It's worth noting that this is the second update for the game this month. Previously, Valve released an anniversary update and held a free giveaway of Half-Life 2 on Steam.
