What was the point of making them unable to be picked up for a few moment after they spawned? It just leads to 50 scouts sitting on one, hoping to get it.
Like really, I've lost tons of masks due to me getting to it first and some idiot jumping on it a second later.
its because if 2 persons sees it its random who gets it. one of them will rage no matter what.
I agree Steve. I personally haven't experienced this, but I can't see any reason for the inability to pick up.
Probably for some reason along the lines of preventing people from memorizing potential spawn points and standing on them to get it the exact second one spawns. Same thing sort of happens as it is though, just with the short wait.

There are TONS of spawn points. If you just sit at just one, you probably won't get it.
I've had this happen before. I believe it is the first person who crouches on it gets it.
lost my 1st gift as a demoman just because a scout jumped on it while I was waiting
It's like a 100 meter sprint, except you have to wait 2 seconds after you reach the finish line. And if someone else passes the finish line, they flip a coin to decide who wins.
Well one gift spawned precisely where I was stood. (More by good luck than good management) But I could just see someone run up the stairs and grab it. It does seem counter-productive. If they needed a small wait, why didn't they just not show the model?
It's a dick move when you're on the gift, and someone still runs over to try and steal it from you.

Guess why I rated you funny? :smug:
I got so many of these fucking paper masks it's not even funny
I sometimes do some giveaways to random people, before I get banned by admins
and trade saxtons for stuff like refined
well
And about that another random random, it's so annoying to other players (I basically stole someones gift. He was on it all the time, then I just tried to get around him, but still I got that present) that I give them back.
I should do more giveaways before I clog my backpack with paper bags
I was sitting on it while it was unable to be captured.
Then some douchebag soldier who stole it from me last time knocked me off it and got it
hnnnnnnnnnnnnnnnnnnnnnnnnnnnnnnnng

You get banned for giving mask?
Wow.
I got banned for taking every gift on the server
I wonder if it's possible to make gift skin invisible or something
Yeah, I bet you are thinking about that faggot nexosz whoring for hearts and stuff
I know how annoying it is to see someone steal your gift and not giving a shit about another papermask. And I really don't want to trade that stuff because trading is boring, and I try to find people that also think that paper mask are worthless and are ready to trade low quality stuff for them
yeah bad excuse, I know
Has anyone made a gift replaceable by a huge-ass tree or something yet?
You can do $ignorerez 1 on the gift model texture
One time I spotted one and demo-charged at it. When I was about two steps away from it another charge demo from the other team came flying over my head and we hit it at the same time.
He got it. :saddowns:

Before or after they patched spectators getting gifts?
I have lost like 3 gifts,and raged,but I learned If I can't grab the gift,I don't have to stand on it,I have to walk again over it
I have had about 5 gifts stolen from me this way. I really want them to be grabbable the moment they spawn so stupid scouts cannot get it.
some guy was following me around so he could steal my presents. then i went red so i could kill him if he did it again.

After it, but i remember he got all the gifts that spawned.
:iiam:

This, but don't expect to see it at long distances. This is how almost everyone who plays Scout is getting the gifts seconds after they spawn.
I love to play on sv_pure servers :v:
One time it spawned under my feet as I was walking.
:what:
It doesn't give the gift to the first person to stand on it. It gives the gift to the person who stood on it the longest.
I saw a guy standing on an invisible one..I chopped his head off right before it changed. He yelled at me.
Had this happen to me twice today.
When I finally got a gift on the same server, I got scolded at and banned for "gift stealing".
