Valve messed with the texture for the flamenco as well, except I think they actually made it better. Mine looked like shit and the rimlighting made the little skulls terrible, but whatever Valve did to it made it look way better. They semi-broke the jigglebones though; the jigglebones still work but now they only move along a single axis and aren't really affected by gravity anymore. It's not terribly noticeable from what I can see however. Then again I only quickly looked at it in item test so who knows. [QUOTE=Shugo;32774417]"We'll figure out who made this stuff later, no big deal." Knowing Valve, I bet they wait until the wiki gets updated with the creator to see who it is...[/QUOTE] Previous items I've gotten in have taken over a month to get a self-made version, the Uber Update items I got in I got immediately as soon as the update hit. Haven't gotten my self-made flamenco yet so I'm assuming it'll either be pretty soon or it'll be a good couple of weeks or more. Kind of funny how the creator of the item can't even get ahold of his own item until like a month after it gets in the game.
All I can say is congratulations on getting your items in-game, contributors. You guys should definitely be pround! [sub][sub][B]Edited:[/B][/sub][/sub] I wonder how it is to see your own creation in one of the most popular online videogames ever. Please tell me if you can.
so does this mean the item servers AREN'T broke anymore? or are they just broke for me and my buds?
[QUOTE=thenintendork;32778317]so does this mean the item servers AREN'T broke anymore? or are they just broke for me and my buds?[/QUOTE] Still broken for me, too. I think the above was written before they crashed.

[QUOTE=AlfieSR;32778532]Still broken for me, too. I think the above was written before they crashed.[/QUOTE] Indeed it was and I just realised the Loadout servers have been offline for over 4 hours.
So it the Item server back online?
Nope. It's getting on my nerves that the servers are down. Even worse are those people in the threads asking "are they still down?" Yes, they freaking are, unless you read otherwise in one of the threads here.
nvm
[QUOTE=Captain Chalky;32779932]Go away from this thread, the update has hit, there is nothing of it anymore.[/QUOTE] There's still Raid Mode, and the "Specialty Mode" that was in the STS leak.
[QUOTE=Jetamo;31647806]This thread isn't about speculating what's going to be in the next update - it's primarily about keeping a round up of all the little tidbits of news we hear between major updates, the leaks, the people with new items getting in, the people visiting Valve etc.[/QUOTE] From the OP. The Manniversary Update just happened to be a large portion of it (80 pages). We can still speculate for the next update, possibly Halloween.
We can always speculate about TF2.
[QUOTE=Pie_Tony;32778946]It took over 2 months to get selfmade blighted beak IIRC.[/QUOTE] :O
also JUNKYARD JUSTICE But we should let this thread rest a bit until we get more info on the halloween update
[QUOTE=ned_ballad;32780665]let this thread rest a bit[/QUOTE] NO.
Well, don't know if it means anything. But I sent Eric Smith an E-mail about the updated TF2 Tips I sent in a long while back. He replied with this. We have several things to catch up on in the coming weeks, including submitted tips, death notice icons, etc. -Eric Maybe those paint fixes are getting after all?
but they have 106 votes and I just submitted them yesterday.
[B] death notice icons[/B] woo Better submit the new pack soon then
anyone else hyped about the inspect backpack tab actually showing a persons TF2 items now? maybe the item servers are coming back on soon.

[QUOTE=Razi The Red;32781681]So... with this update... [img]http://i393.photobucket.com/albums/pp20/Red_Uncle/Wat.jpg[/img] Reserve Shooter Pyros?[/QUOTE] And nothing was ever the same again.
[QUOTE=DatHarry;32781711]And nothing was ever the same again.[/QUOTE] Well I just glanced the wiki and noticed the info there, was that not late?
[QUOTE=DatHarry;32781711]And nothing was ever the same again.[/QUOTE] Still useless as fuck. It has to be out for 3 seconds, so it literally makes the Reserve Shooter worthless. [editline]14th October 2011[/editline] Well unless your an Axtinguisher Pyro. 80% Weapon Switch Speed with the Degreaser and Reserve Shooter.
[QUOTE=ned_ballad;32780665]also JUNKYARD JUSTICE But we should let this thread rest a bit until we get more info on the halloween update[/QUOTE] You're making me annoy everyone with my sad sob stories.
my pack got made from scratch and released during the time yours has been in limbo ;)
[QUOTE=Mentlegen;32781824]80% Weapon Switch Speed with the Degreaser and Reserve Shooter.[/QUOTE] Nope. The Reserve Shooter and Degreaser's bnouses don't add together. Using both takes off 65% of the switch time, then takes off 15% of the new time. This adds up to 70.25% off the original weapon switch time.
[QUOTE=NeoDement;32781992]my pack got made from scratch and released during the time yours has been in limbo ;)[/QUOTE] Good thing it didn't get lost on it's way Captain Geography.

I just crafted 2 paper hats and got the VR headset. This update has done well by me.
