Team Fortress 2 - Heavy Update, New Maps, New Mode are all live now!

On a scale of 1 to Retarded, you win!

I mean, really. You’re bitching about something that 1) does not affect gamplay in the slightest 2) was just a random reward for people supporting the company, and most of all 3) is a purely astethic item from a game you don’t even like.

I want the Demoman fro so bad.

It’s not like there’s not hats I don’t want. I’d kill for the Soldier’s stash. And I haven’t received a single hat from random drop. That’s why I’m thankful for every opportunity to pick up hats, whether it’s a halo, a paper bag, a gibous, or Bill’s Beret. At least team TF2 did something to not make me feel left out.

That says they increased hat drops… it doesn’t say anything about that being tied to a halo.

I took it as hat drops are increased, so the need to idle has lessened.

Holy shit you’re right. I could’ve sworn I saw something about the halo increasing drop rates though.

im just annoyed with the cross promotion of a bad game/series.

and i want that hat.

if anybody in this thread has the spy beard. fuck you.

i heard that halo increases drop rates by 5% but unless valve straight out says it
i wouldn’t believe it.

Oh, so that’s what those Achievement_idle servers are for?

You make it seem as if they upped the hat drop rate to an absurdly high rate people would magically stop idling. As long as there is random drop chance, there’ll always be idlers.

Get over it.

I can’t believe how much people care about hats. I mean, you can only see it on your character when A) you get blown up and you see your ragdoll or B) when you taunt. Who the fuck cares this much about aesthetic changes?

Valve: “Dance puppets dance!”

Hats are becoming stupid imo…srsly. It was funny at first, but what are we gonna have 100 fucking hats for people now?

Think i said it on the last page, but i’d rather see them have completely alternate costumes available instead of all these hats. But only 1, 2 at most so shit doesn’t get crazy

I would like to say, though, that the halloween event was still a lot of fun. I didn’t care one bit about the achievements or hats but the ghost and exploding pumpkins were a great idea!

See i’m an achievement whore. That’s a big thing that keeps me coming back to playing tf2, much like cod.

Aside from raping people, which is fun, trying to get achievements (especially hard ones) are fun.

I spent forever trying to do the fuckin scout taunt one, and after many fails it turns out i did it like 3 times in a row to the same stupid sniper on 2fort. Was pretty funny, wish i demod…wait maybe i did. I’ll have to check.

Hey real talk for a second.

I got 2 CSS servers up right now. One is pretty damn popular, the other had a good run for awhile until it attracted a bunch of 12 year olds and scared everyone off. Seriously…we couldnt get enough admin in there to fix the problem.

SO…I’m running this by everyone on my forums to see what should be done with the one server that is failing right now.

One of the options I put out there is getting a tf2 server. I would love…to fuckin do this, even though SourceOP servers are bomb. I’m gonna end this short now cuz I just had it out with my fucking boss and i need to go rage in the tol.

If I got a tf2 server which would be at least a 22 slot, would anyone here play there?

I usually frequent the Vanilla Gaming servers, but I’d drop by yours regularly if you had one.

I’d play there and if you needed an admin I could cover that too.

I’d play, depending on the location/ping. I typically frequent the same 2-3 servers anyway, just random ones with good ping I happened to find. Nobody is ever on the SRK one, and it’s outdated now too

The location on the server would most likely be dallas, or another region of the midwest to accommodate east and west coast
