I wish the hair looked like this instead of the way it does now.

[royaldanney]

well, thats strange

[Psychopath]

The only gripe I have is the uncreative name they chose for the latest soundtrack entry: "MEDIC!"

I was expecting something like "Doctor Assisted Homicide" or just [i]something[/i] related to the Übercharge instead of the most common thing heard by Medic players.

[Recurracy]

that thing spooks me out

You don't have to download it, just extract the gamestartup music file from the GCF using GCFScape

Play me.

Later.

[Aaron0000]

Awful lot of updates lately. Think Valve is up to something?

Nope.

Use LOD 1 rather than 0
It seems to sit still when you do, and there's no loss in quality on the item (the polycount remains the same)

11:42 PM - [FAUCᴱT] Psychopath: Evening Robin. Just doing a periodic check-in regarding the [sp][redacted][/sp]. Out of curiosity, do you know if any of the artists have time to import the models and whatnot or are there more pressing things for them to address in the near future?
11:46 PM - Robin: artists haven't found the time yet, sorry. we've got a bunch of stuff that needs to be done in the next 2 weeks.

Does that answer your question?

[Bragdras]

I wish it was an all class even if I don't have it, tribal huntsman says hi.
Or rather, is very, very sad and wish to say hi.

The hat might be bad but the game totally deserves the promotion since it's a great game but got next to no publicity.

I don't really want to buy From Dust anymore.[/QUOTE]

You're not going to buy a great game only because another game got a hat?

[QUOTE=Lynk;31416397]Do people really care that much about start up music? Honestly, how much time do you guys stay on the main menu for?[/QUOTE]

It's because they're "clean" versions (no voices, sound effects, etc) and some people might want to put them in their MP3 player because they're so fucking awesome.

Oh I get it, it's for the demoman because the mask only has one hole to see through on it.

[Exooodus]

I need a soundmod that plays the song every time I deploy an uber.

The hole is in the middle.
It looks like it was intended to be all_class as the materials are in the all_class folder.

Sorry about that, gentlemen. I had to let that out.

[QUOTE=ned_ballad;31417378]well hello there[/QUOTE]
I'm wondering why they didn't put those to use on release instead of what I presume to be item schema updates over the course of the next few weeks.

ok

[Piscow Piscow]

VALVe manages to get a promo item off from the most unfitting and somewhat stupid things in other games.
lulz

[Yukinari]

Still no Sniper promo.

[Smashman]

What do you mean late. I just MADE that Shugo style icon...

When I saw the hat I thought it was for pyro, due to the hole...

Promo or not buy From Dust. Fantastic game. I have it for the xbox and it's just great.
