Major Update Speculation: V8: Rise of the Machines!

[Goodwell]

I can confirm all items are dropping.

I took screenshots of my drop list, but for the sake of not spamming the page with images, i won't post 'em.

Unless you guys want the pictures, that is.

[Erfly]

I just discovered I needed both the empire and napoleon games to get the stuff.
Great. I only have total war: empire.

I really wanted the physician too.

Oh well, at least I can play the Empire game with my friends at some point.

One of my fiends got the master collection and every item dropped for him as well. I told him about whole this promotion and now he's making fun of me, bastard.

Well you can always test by random crafting scout/pyro/spy meele's, so at least you have a chance at getting a Unarmed Combat/Maul/Sharp Dresser.

But the Objector isn't craftable, so I'm sure the staff isn't

And this whole thing is fucking bullshit. They've been screwing me for years and this is the last straw.

(VAC ban my old account for no reason, take away my portal 2 with random tf2 items, and their support team is full of dumb shits that always give me random ass excuses while giving the already rich people glitched items which they get even "richer" off of)

Here's the fun part
If Valve ever makes this craftable (which won't change anything), I bet it'll have craft numbers

Oh my goodness ;_;

So, I assume we'll get the items at the end of the promotion?[/QUOTE]

lucky

anyways congrats

[ned_ballad]

this whole thing is (rightfully so) causing a ruckus on SPUF

They really need to be careful with banners and news posts, and make sure they're exactly what they want. Now they're in an awkward situation where people are demanding items (rightfully so) for games they purchased assuming they were getting those items.

I bought Empire and Napoleon today for the Spy coat. I wouldn't have bought them otherwise. Which is why I'm a little annoyed :/

This is going to cause a great number of glitched items thanks to ours truly, Steam Support

What. I have both games and just got the Medic coat. :(

[emmens]

The feel of not having the money to afford these games and sweet ass promo's.

[ned_ballad]

[QUOTE=Freakie;37835152]What. I have both games and just got the Medic coat. :([/QUOTE]

earlier today they advertised you'd get the Spy coat also, but then they changed it to the Sniper Shako after people had already bought the games

[Roo]

I got one game because it cleraly said Empire [B]or[/B] Napoleon, I got nothing. I'm a poor student with no job, no way I'm going to buy the second one because someone changed his mind.

Well you're not gonna get the promos they say you are anyways...

[QUOTE=Freakie;37835227]Sonova-[/QUOTE]

Don't worry, he's just disguised as a Sniper!

Right..?

[ned_ballad]

they can easily clean this up. Give the Spy suit to anyone who bought the two games before 4 est or so (an hour and a half ago), and then give everyone who owns all the games in the TW collection the Staff.

And the problem is fixed :/

[igotopinions]

Hopefully this doesn't send a message of "people are more interested in the items than the games"

haha what the hell am i saying that boat sailed ages ago

[Armisael]

[QUOTE=ned_ballad;37835514]and then give everyone who owns all the games in the TW collection the Staff.[/QUOTE]

yes, we get it, you want the staff

[TheVoidDragon]

So how do we get the spy coat and demo cape? I own all the Total war games (except battles, but i could buy that) so there's no reason for me to buy the master collection, which means it's annoying that i won't get the freedom staff.

[QUOTE=AbeX300;37835880]Was that music necessary whatsoever?[/QUOTE]

I didn't make it.

[ned_ballad]

why don't they just set all response rules for Saxxy like weapons to use the same rules the Saxxy uses...

[Armisael]

People seem to be rather fond of drinking grease, as I recall.

[Damian0358]

You guys are making me so fucking jealous! I just want the King of Scotland Cape, Foppish Physician and the Distinguished Rogue! That is it! But I'm here, with no money, looking at you all getting such sexy items that will become so expensive, that I'll never get them!

Unless they do the same thing they did with the Shogun pack.....

[editline]29th September 2012[/editline]

So, here is what I think might happen.

In the first 11 days of October, the following might happen:

1. Every item in the Total War Master Collection (including the Staff) becomes craftable, become available in the store and tradeable.
2. Every item that was in the Fall Crate becomes available in the store and craftable.
3. Robo-Sandvich becomes a drop in Mann Up Mode, but it is even rarer than the RoBro.
4. RoBro becomes droppable.
5. The CoH2 items become craftable and tradeable.
6. The XCOM items become craftable and tradeable.
7. The following items become craftable: The Essential Accessories, Ball-Kicking Boots, Merc's Pride Scarf, Humanitarian's Hachimaki, Benefactor's Kanmuri and the Magnanimous Monarch

3 and 7 are the least likely to happen, due to many reasons, while 5, in this timespan anyway, will not happen, because the game comes out in 2013.

[TectonicImprov]

What's the last one?

[Justnobody]

Jesus H. Christ I haven't seen so many promos since the pre-portal 2 drought of '11

Anyway the freedom staff looks sexy
