Well, I guess tomorrow we'll see if we can trust Fool or not, or if he's just fanning the fires. I don't blame him if he is, I'd do the same thing.
how could we not trust F00l? Why would Valve allow such unprofessional behavior, to allow someone representing their company to outright troll every single user and server owner on HLDS. Valve likes to play around, but confirming a major update then going "LOL SORRYY NOT HAPPENING" isn't just trolling, that's grounds for losing your job. HLDS isn't made to be Valve's own personal little troll system, it serves a very specific function of telling servers there's a major update happening. If Valve starting outright lying for giggles, server owners would quickly abondon the system entirely.
I just bought 8 craft hats, I am ready for some SCIENCE

If there are screenshots I'll start believing but until I see them I'll remain skeptical. Also Valve is such an informal company, I don't think they'd fire Fool for making post ratings here on Facepunch. Like I said, I haven't seen any screencaps from HLDS, so I wouldn't know if those are real.

Well there you go I don't have any excuse anymore. Update tomorrow woo, my 10 refined and weapon hookups are ready. I've sorta been asleep all day so I didn't see that. Skipping over the last 100 unread posts in this thread doesn't usually hold any sort of consequence because it's usually just people saying "my body is/is not ready" and "I'll craft all of the hats. All of them." Cool shit, egg on my face, etc etc.

[QUOTE=ned_ballad;32736957]"Building" loadout slot added to STS![/QUOTE]I hope it's not separate from the melee in any way. Otherwise I'll just equip the gunslinger for free health while I destroy shit with my variety of leveled sentries \:v:/
[QUOTE=PyroCraz3d;32736980]Building? Sounds like an alternate name for crafting, wonder what it is? Hopefully something to do with crates. I wanna "build" a key out of boxes :v:[/QUOTE] it means like dispensers or sentries

[QUOTE=ned_ballad;32736957]"Building" loadout slot added to STS![/QUOTE] Holy crap, must check!
please do, I got it from SUF, so I'm not sure. The stuff after that, however, I got from someone else, so it's more reliable than SUF.
Hm. the building thing was also in the Schema leak too right?

Blast damage taken +- makes sense, but most of the rest confuse me (captures, defenses, revenge, score???)
ooooh nice
If this update brings in the Double Misc, which it most likely will.. do you think it will include few weapons and lots of hats/miscs? IMO that would suck, because I love new weapons and having an entire major update based off of hats wouldn't be cool.

The new system will allow the entire TF community to participate by browsing, rating and giving feedback on all submitted items. It's a major project, but we promise to keep you updated on our progress."
Looks like it's time to crack out Blender again.
What a nice blogpost
