Yeah, I'm gonna hard agree. Pocket items and pet items are annoying at this point. Absolutely no disrespect to the people that make the items (assuming they're made well), but there are so many cosmetics that are actual cosmetics and change the Class's appearances beyond strapping a stuffed doll to them. There are sick jackets for the Soldier, awesome cosmetics for Pybros, actually good-looking and fitting witch hats, and even classic hats that still fit the TF2 artstyle and look appealing, among literally thousands of other great cosmetics. I feel like I could make a pocket Balloonicorn cosmetic with absolutely no effort beyond making it look like the Balloonicorn, and it'd get accepted immediately, even though there is over 7 fucking years of great workshop cosmetics just waiting to be officially added to the game.
I played Smissmas 2018 and all I got was this lousy war paint. Unrelated to Smissmas, but do you guys think they are holding back updates so the Heavy Update can be the 666th one?
my favorite part about this update is that they fixed the most minor problem that literally only came into light when someone decompiled 2fort a few years ago: "the clouds don't rotate but they should" i don't care what anybody says the fact that somebody spent time to fix this incredibly minor and insignificant bug the person responsible has my undying respect because the game has been out eleven years
What if it was Dave Riller or Eric Smith whp caused the bug in the first place and they're just remembered to fix it the other day?
If Auto-balance is to be utilized, I don't think this feature will ever be added. Other wise people will form parties to be immune to auto-balance. Imagine if two teams on the bigger team consisted of just 6 member parties while the other team was down 4 people. and I just woke up 2 seconds ago and I see people have two of those ugly sweater styled skins so I'm guessing the winter update hit...
based on this tweet from UEAKCrash Robin Walker himself broke it before Launch but they just kinda left it broken for over 11 years: https://twitter.com/UEAKCrash/status/1075559437497262085
Team Fortress 2 Beats Its All Time Peak somehow this sounds like "guys there was an update!!" combined with all the kids off school. Hurray I suppose.
It is possible for you to have any small amount of happiness at TF2 news after 2015? This is good news, hopefully Valve sees this and looks at all the untapped potential.
it still comes off as a surprise. one would asume halloween brought even more people given it was a more fleshed out update.
That's pretty cool, but TF2 throughout all of 2018 as a whole has had a pretty rough year. https://i.imgur.com/xjq6Xd0.png
Those cosmetics are really nice, but I still wish they would make, like, a monthly case release. Once a month release a new case of new cosmetics, that way at least there's something new instead of nothing, even if it's just cosmetics. That way, workshop designers are happy to see their items get added, and people who enjoy making cosmetic loadouts get more choices for their outfits. It's no fancy new major update chock-full of maps, weapons, and the such, but it's something.
did they really add the fucking zoomer hair? oh my giddy fuck.
We're on the same timeline where The Fantasic Doctor Plastic can get anytime in *ring ring* he bought the keys? crash the economy
Like typical fashion... I open 5 crates and get 2 unusuals out of it... https://steamcommunity.com/sharedfiles/filedetails/?id=1595680874 https://steamcommunity.com/sharedfiles/filedetails/?id=1595680962
TF2 is pretty much worked on by boomers at this point if you think about it
https://media.discordapp.net/attachments/245414691935879169/525159093774712843/unknown.png Just unboxed an unusual. I was actually watching the latest VNN video thinking "huh, what if tf2 decided to give me a parting gift since i'm probably never going to play this game too much anymore? I doubt it" o-oh, thanks tf2 I love you too.
I'm fairly certain it's for the radar on top of B.
Or they could see that they don't have to put any effort into the game whatsoever in order to make maximum profit.
Wise Whiskers is holiday themed because KFC is a Christmas tradition in Japan. Also Harry wants to talk to you about diabeetus.
All about perspective Exor. When you speculate from a pessimistic mindset, you're right. There's nothing positive about this at all.
I went on the market and got a strange puggyback for 1 dollar. Someone must have thought it was only worth a dollar. Say what you want, it's a cute as fuck item. he just sits there like a baby in one of those baby carriers. Used my smissmas nametag to name it after my pug irl

Optimism and pessimism should be informed attitudes. There is nothing to stimulate optimism here.
Read the description of the workshop link you posted. Pretty sure he's referencing the joke
I like the Paka Parka for heavy. Is a good upgrade to my Festive/Winter themed heavy set up: https://steamuserimages-a.akamaihd.net/ugc/939462533598599601/AB259C1E9CE0A6A72462937750A150EEB4C2473B/ Probably my favorite piece out of the new set of cosmetics...
"lets hope this new playercount peak means valve will give tf2 more attention" I really doubt this, they'll prefer to pump out content for a game with 3 thousand concurrent users instead. Don't really think anyone there cares about player count or pays attention to steam charts.
Since this is a speculation thread, who here thinks that the reason that Smissmas is so bare-bones is because there is a big update just around the corner? Even as half-assed as this update is, I can't imagine it's that hard to add new holiday maps or skins from the community; could this be because the Smissmas event is supposed to be separate from the actual update with whatever theme it has?
I am be fine with a cosmetic-only update, but damn, there could be at oeast twice as much cosmetics, and a new war paint case. This is rather lackluster even by the lowest standards.
Kinda weird that only a handful of the cosmetics are winter-y or christmas themed on top of not having a naughty/nice crate, and no new festive weapons? I guess they got completely replaced by festivizers but it would've been nice if there were batch of new festive weapons with unique models and textures since thats what got me interested every smissmass Its at least better than ending the year with absolute silence but eh
oof even for the cosmetic only crew this is a pretty huge letdown and shows that chances are the tf2 devs were working on quite literally anything else this year but not tf2 guess all we can do is hope for next year to be different or anticipate the phase where tf2 gets sent into an old people's home
