[ICEE]

And it comes with goodies! (http://www.teamfortress.com/)


New items with descriptions (http://www.teamfortress.com/mannconomy/item_sets/)

Epic comic (http://www.teamfortress.com/bidwells_big_plan/)

the scouts new items seem waay OP to me.

Also noticed this.

[Aerowyn]

LOL, the Sydney Sleeper, forever to be known at the BODYSHOT GUN.

Also, NO, I will NOT be paying real world money for a couple of pixelated items. Thank you.

I am really hoping that these polycount items are NOT "Mann Store" exclusive.

OMG ANOTHER EDIT:


Q: Will I be able to trade items?
A: Yes. We've added the long-requested Trading feature, so you can swap items with friends.

TRADING. TRAAAAAADINGGG. O__O

I've got a Prussian Pickelhaube up for trade, guys. Will trade for a pyro rubber glove or fireman's hat.

[n00b1n8R]

I have a spare camera beard if anyone wants it, make me an offer.

Makes sense Valve ok thanks Gaben

[Aerowyn]

Yeah, I actually just got that new syringe gun in a drop, along with one of those minigame duel thingers.

I REALLY want that pyro sombrero though. REALLY BAD. I am looking everywhere to trade with people but NO ONE WANTS TO >=(

HMMMMMM.

For those who don't know, the vitasaw is the medic's new melee weapon. it chops off 10% of your health, but allows you to retain 20% of your ubercharge when you die.

$10USD for hats, they're kidding right? That's more than what a lot of people paid for the entire game :|

Only a turbo-peasant would actually pay for tf2 items though :)

[Bodzilla]

so everything in the poly count is able to be found????

[Timo]

Yes. Just played a game with a guy that purchased all the polycount items for $50USD. What the crap.

[Cagerrin]

I realize Valve is trying to pre-empt the "selling items on eBay" thing that plagues any game with a trading system, but I feel like they're sliding on an icy slope. Good thing I got out of TF2 before it became this bad.

[CN3089]

yo who had the brain slug for my texas-ten gallon

[iizahsum]

within 20 minutes I found the fish and the crocodile back item, are drops increased this week?

also wiling to trade stuff for Sydney sleeper.

[CN3089]

You found the fish? Does it really tell the whole server when you hit someone with it?

[iizahsum]

yes it does, it tells everyone how many times you hit them with it and if you get a kill it says Mr.Dribbles <fish image> FISH KILL! (other persons name)

Quite a cool feature. and I have a Sydney sleeper now so disregard that request.

[ICEE]

I find the fish's hit reporting irritating. I don't really care who hits who with a fish, tbh.

[CN3089]

Also don't buy the new item set hats for the bonus just yet (http://www.brickshelf.com/gallery/littleboy8/eastereggs/hahahaha.png)

Are people really willing to pay for hats?
What the fuck.

I know people who bought Sam & Max and Worms for the hats, so it's not a new thing.



Also I am so totally doing this when I get a name tag

[Heathen]

Oh that is so awesome.

[Pooky]

As cool as this all sounds, what I'm still really waiting for is the 'TF2 Classic' update. It would add a new cvar that disallows all unlocks except hats, and reverts all balance changes (not bugfixes) back to TF2 1.0

Until something like this happens, I just can't play TF2 anymore. It's not the game I once loved :(

A thousand times this.

I find it funny that a game that was built with simplicity in mind turned so convoluted.

You're right, it's a much better game now. As long as nobody uses natascha.

Vanilla servers, or just roll with basic weapons. I don't think I've changed more than 2 slots of my loadout since I picked the game up (shovel/equalizer, axe/axtinguisher)

They've got to re-enable scout silly legs as a convar too.

Really loosing interest with this game, 1 replacement for each weapon is enough, tf2 was brilliant for its simplicity.
PS. Natasha makes heavy useful, how can that be bad?

heavy is an unstoppable death machine right now. with natascha he is an infuriating unstoppable death machine. hope this helps!



Also the game is still real simple I don't know what makes you think otherwise??

Name 1 good game that has this many weapons for this many classes that change how a lot of them work.

What's with your double ambassadors?

[arbiter901]

You mean the duel mini game?

[n00b1n8R]

You mean the duel mini game?
oh right

[ICEE]

whats up with the duel mini game anyways? I don't get it.

[Yoko]

You duel someone for a round, whoever kills the other person more wins. Certain amounts of wins earn you dueling medals, bronze through gold. I got two in a row from crates thanks VALVe making me spend $5 of my hard earned money for 2 items worth $0.99 each d*cks

[iizahsum]

you get medals from bronze to platinum, I think platinum is like 740 duel wins.

So, should you be fortunate enough to get an item on the store, not only do you get to play around with items you created, but you get to directly profit from your passion for Valve's products. How much can be made? Well Valve just flew players out to its studio in Bellevue, Wash. and handed over checks. Steven Skidmore and Spencer Kern, amongst others, were given royalty checks for sums ranging from $39,000 to $47,000, and that's just for two weeks.


Holy shit....

[Bodzilla]

holly fucking shit.

thats more then i make in a year for a fucking hat in a fucking video game.

You should get into 3d and submit hats to the store :3

Don't know 'bout everybody else but I'm just going to make as many hats as I physically can, to the highest quality, and submit them all to the store.

[ICEE]

^ I knew this would happen. Lol

[Sel]

That's pathetic, get paid to ruin a game!

[Yoko]

Sorry your meager $3000 for trains didn't match up to $40,000 for hats ~
