Major Update Speculation Thread V3: Tonight's the Night, forever and always - Games

man i'm so pumped to be Hiro every sword-guy is gonna be hiro to me

You know, saying the hat of the future is made of pony leather is a smooth move on Weta's part. Let's look at the demographic: People who don't give a shit about ponies will consider it a mundane hat, maybe they'll get it as part of the pack. People who love ponies will swarm over the smallest bit of things referring to ponies they can have. People who hate ponies can argue that a pony was skinned in the making of this hat, and will proudly display the trophy on their heads. with one word they probably doubled the future sales of an okay-looking hat, and I'm sure we'll get to see this hat often in-game. [Sp]Now as for me I won a bet back when it was released in february and another FP member now has to buy me this pack, so I'll get the hat no matter what.[/sp]

What was this bet? If you don't mind me asking.

[QUOTE=Gabriel_Gore;36269231]I'm wondering. What was this bet? If you don't mind me asking.[/QUOTE] Something so mundane and boring I completely forgot about it. Nothing facepunch-related I reckon. Man, these hats sure took some time to be modeled. [editline]10th June 2012[/editline] Oh, just checked the dr grordbort website, there's a possibility for these items to be promos for the triumph album, like soldier's pack was a promo for the victory album. Well I'd like to apologize to the speculation thread for obsessing over grocket material. In the end it really wasn't the first hint we got.

so wait are we actually in update fever right now again going on what, the lack of an update last week? [editline]10th June 2012[/editline] also just had a crazy idea: what if we used the workshop to petition for things like have one that says "[PETITION] Year-Round Equippable Halloween Costumes" to show Valve that it's what the community wants

[QUOTE=The Calzone;36269413]so wait are we actually in update fever right now again going on what, the lack of an update last week?[/QUOTE] The fact that Weta has put Scout and Medic grodrobot sets on the workshop, that there were mvm medals in the item schema and the fact that contributors are saying that something will be happening soon. And that Valve is updating less the last few weeks.

[QUOTE=Evil_Knevil;36269433]and the fact that contributors are saying that something will be happening soon.[/QUOTE] for real this time right because after being lead on for two weeks by ronin I'm kinda turned off of that idea

Yes but now we're sure this isn't for dota 2 and ronin is not the one starting the hype. Grodbort is a more viable source of speculation.

I really hope the update is going to hit soon. Because I'm starting to run out of space. [thumb]http://uppix.net/a/c/4/a279f7f56bceda56c3f21489884d2.png[/thumb] never ready enough eh

Yea, I need another good Uber update type deal to clear me out of spare items. Sitting on maybe 4 refined of uncrafted dupe weapons, plus the 4 refined I already have in my backpack.
