Man, most of those crafts are really expensive. Even putting weapon limitations aside, I only have enough metal to craft a handful of them. Guess I'll have to see what spare weapons I have and go from there.
-
Also lol at the new scout pistol being a short stop and a refined. For a WEAKER pistol. Let me repeat that, it is LESS GOOD than the default.
A Refined. For one gun. Fuck crafting stuff, then.

Meet the Medic.
So good.
So worth the wait.
-
Holy crap, they actually went and made it free. And my update's downloading now. Sweet.

People will still be able to find servers the old-fashioned way, right? If so, I don't really see the benefit of being forced to get rid of certain features just for the sake of being a part of a goofy matchmaking system.
-
Ooh, good call.

To be fair, the Engineer and Medic are limited in terms of attack-type weapons by the inherent nature of their classes...if the Medic is at the front lines, he should ideally be healing someone else, and unless the Engy is going all battle-mode with the Gunslinger, he's generally preoccupied with building stuff. The new Medigun should provide an interesting new dynamic, and I do hope that the Engy gets at least some love, maybe in the form of a weapon that enables a brand-new building variant.

The Mantreads sound hilarious.

Re: TF2 going F2P
Re: SHOULD'VE SAVED THEM ITEMS
Meh, you're probably gonna need metal anyway...
Yeah, I was thinking that too...though I just traded two Refined for a hat, so I guess I screwed the pooch there too.
Anyway, we aren't guaranteed to get unique recipes for all of the new items right away, and most people will probably be willing to trade duplicate copies once everything starts dropping. -
Yeah, I was warning everyone who was listening to hold on to one of each weapon because the only other time Valve has done double drop rate is when there are a lot of things required for crafting.
Specifically, they did double drop rate during the Golden Wrench thing.
I did save quite a bit, but I finally crafted some of it into metal the other night, since I was in the middle of rearranging my backpack, and things were getting cluttered. Silly me, I saved all the Medic stuff because I thought that's all we'd be getting.
-
Well now. Guess I should have held off on a few of those crafts the other day.

Hey, so it is. I saw the boxed copy for $10 in Best Buy, but I didn't realize it was at that price point on Steam too. I have one or two people I might be able to convince to buy it if it's that cheap.
It's been a good week for hats here. I decided to give that Spiral Knights game a try, and I fooled around in it long enough to get the promo hat...it's decently fun, but I can't see myself sinking dozens of hours to it. I also found a Sergeant's Drill Hat on a trade server for two Refined, so now I have entirely too many good hats for my Soldier. I should probably try looking for stuff for the three or four classes that I don't have a class-specific hat for yet.

Sooooo clooooooose...

That ridiculous 14-stab round you had on Hightower the other night didn't hurt.

After finally playing Chrono Trigger a couple of years ago, I'm sort of surprised that Schala's Theme has become the remixing stand-by that it has, since it really didn't feature all that much in the original game. The tracks "Corridors of Time" and "Undersea Palace" were much more prominent in that part of the game, so I would have thought they'd see higher numbers instead. I am glad the original track exists, though, since it means we get awesome remixes like this one.
-
Updating now.
Edit: Wait, isn't The Essential Accessories a Misc item? So there are paintable Misc items now?
The Camera Beard is a Misc item, and it's been paintable for a while.
-
I would do terrible, terrible things for that bear.

My brother was on BLU for a bit last night, but he had to cut out after a little while because he said he was experiencing some massive lag. I'll have to ask him if it was something similar to what you're describing.
-
I think Sir Prize and Gamemaster's videos were the only two I bothered to vote for, other than this random "TF2 is Just Awesome" one in the soundtrack category. It's a shame that they didn't win.
-
Woo, crafted a Sticky Jumper via tokens last night. Does crafting via tokens produce a weapon in that category that you don't already have (if you're missing any), or did I just manage to get lucky on my first try?
-
That's a great idea. I never really understood why certain weapons don't taunt, especially when there's an easy analogue with another taunt in the same weapons slot.

I just have a humble Jarate by the name of Jar Kelly.

dustbowl is impossible to win on offense unless your team has the greatest spy in the universe
Or two Medics that can build up an Uber and take in a competent Heavy/Demo to clear out the final defense. That last point goes really fast once everyone has been killed off or pushed back. And having a good Engy/Pyro means that you should be able to set up and hold a forward base in the alley before the final point.
and goldrush is is impossible to win on defense unless you have a team of snipers getting nonstop headshotsNow this is just flat-out wrong...I can't count how many times my team hasn't even been able to finish the first stage. So long as you cover the Engies from long-range rocket barrage, that last point there is brutal to capture, since you're basically exposed the whole way to the finish. The second point on the second stage can get brutal too if the defense knows what it's doing, and the final final point tends to get bottlenecked in that alley leading to the final open area.

OCR TF2: Stab stab stab!

Boy I sure am glad that the crafting server being down apparently ate one of my Refined as I tried to smelt it. That's always great.
