Update history
April 29, 2008 Patch (Gold Rush Update)
- Added new swing animations.
- Fixed melee attacks not destroying remote detonation pipes (Stickybombs).
Trivia
- The critical hit animation is the same manner of attack the Soldier uses to take out the Spy in Meet the Soldier.
- The tool's real-life counterpart is the U.S. Army M-1943 entrenching tool.
- According to the Mac Update comic, the Soldier's Shovel is highly flammable, will spontaneously catch fire, and can barely dig holes due to it being a Mann Co. product.
