So what's next for crates? - Games

Stranges were a step in the right direction IMO, but they aren't worth the money for the gimmick to me. I can't really think of an alternative either. EDIT: Actually how about this: Variable keys: $0.99 keys. 0% chance of unusuals, but you may get a strange weapon or a hat $2.49 keys 1% chance of unusual as always, plus that other stuff. $9.99 keys 5% chance of unusual. $24.99 keys 25% chance of unusual $49.99 keys 50% chance of unusual $99.99 keys 100% chance of unusual But I dunno. They probably make more money by forcing people to gamble with the $2.49 keys with terrible odds.

strange razorbacks.

Face it, there can only be so many of a particular strange item in existence once the series leaves the rotation; more players as time passes means more players who can't have those items at all, and we know how that has worked out in the past.

Strange Detonators :v: [editline]1st September 2011[/editline] [QUOTE=Spybreak;32052795]It ranks up every time you get headshot.[/QUOTE] Uh no, it should count how many backstab attempts it blocked

[QUOTE=w0lfeh;32053315]Uh no, it should count how many backstab attempts it blocked[/QUOTE] Honestly, then it'd basically count nothing. Spies usually don't stab the razorback.

[QUOTE=Zedicus Mann;32023838]Buy a Crowbar to open each one. They contain HL3 themed weapons and items. Freeman's Goatee, Freeman's Glasses, Freeman's Crowbar, AR3, etc. All of which you can get in Genuine by pre-ordering HL3.[/QUOTE] AR3? You mean an AR2, right?

[QUOTE=TCB;32056111]AR3? You mean an AR2, right?[/QUOTE] Back in the city, we didn't need no AR3's. We took em down with our bare hands

crates with double-locks.

[QUOTE=Sie-Sveinhund;32027115]I don't give two shits what the "value" is, that hat's one of the best in the game IMO. Put it with the Mutton Chops and Pipe or the Purity Fist=epic [editline]30th August 2011[/editline] On a topic-related note, I imagine just crates with more of the newer items in them[/QUOTE] I just want one because I play bison is street fighter :C But its price is bloody insane.

You know what I hope is next for crates? No more fucking crates. Because it's hard enough already to drop just any interesting item without dropping crates instead.

[QUOTE=Psychopath12;32081689]Crates don't interfere with the normal drops, you have no reason to complain about something that is fabricated of your own false perception.[/QUOTE] Last time I checked, they did drop instead of an item I actually needed.

[QUOTE=Scarabix;32082323]Last time I checked, they did drop instead of an item I actually needed.[/QUOTE] Except unless you never checked, random means random. And if a random item becomes a crate and it doesn't effect your cap, then think of it as a second chance.

[QUOTE=Sie-Sveinhund;32027115]I don't give two shits what the "value" is, that hat's one of the best in the game IMO.[/QUOTE] You should. Lower market value means you can get a hat you like more easily, and that's what should count for you, right?
