[QUOTE=Hell-met;36595355]
also I love the actual bootlegger sound. The chest sound is the one that could really get annoying IMO.[/QUOTE]
yea, the chest sound is odd. Not really sure what they're going for. A lock swinging? Coins rattling in it? The knife sounds are "good enough" for that, but it is an odd choice to even have the item use sounds.
I don't know if I'm late, but I just saw someone who drop a "Kills-when-halloween strange part"
Is it new ?
Thanks :D

It's possible for servers to spoof drop messages. I'm going to take this information with a grain of salt until I see some solid evidence such as an item with the part applied to it or the part itself in someone's backpack.
here it is, the second one ( In french, sry )

EDIT: About the plugin, I was on an english server and the message appeared in french, and the guy wasn't an administrator
WAIT
Team Paints are showing drop stats now also ._.
Similar stats to the items added to the system last week

Yes.
It's because Pyromania new content isn't translated yet.
[QUOTE=ned_ballad;36594190]because this makes the reskin a little bit more unique and not a lame reskin anymore.
And this is super easy for Valve to implement.[/QUOTE]
Reskins clutter the game. There's nothing good about them.

They actually translated this, but not the burned items? :v:
It's odd, doesn't seem to be related to today being a full moon in game.

DROPPED? A strange part dropped!?[/QUOTE]
Would make sense for them to drop during full moons, may be their light distribution system for the most useless strange part.
no stat counting site keeps tracks of strange parts, so I can't go by those for this case
[QUOTE=ned_ballad;36595326]what you need to do is make your email very easy for them to reference things and figure out what the bug is.
So give them the specific file names of the broken bottle, inform them that the bottle has this behavior, and suggest that maybe it's actually bugged, and that it might be set up properly on their end.
They don't seem to respond to "your forgot to do this" but more to "this seems to have been the intended feature, but it does not work that way" and also the more technical details and specific file names the better.
Chaofanait (awesome particle dude) knows this first hand, as it's taken like... maybe a week tops for Valve to implement things he suggests because he gets very technical and explains how it works and why it might be missing.
My most successful emails have been that way also. "Here's the bug, here's what seemed intended, here's a fix for that, or the files where you can see that it was intended the other way"

I know it's weird, but they seem to fix things faster when they're phrased in a way that makes them "broken" rather than forgotten.[/QUOTE]
I often refer to them as "broken since release" and show them simplistic pictures like this:

The strange part is'nt necessarry a hidden content of pyromania
It can be included before
can't tell if hilarious or sad
[QUOTE=Lord Exor;36595527]Reskins clutter the game. There's nothing good about them.[/QUOTE]
If we're going to have reskins, they'd better have some sort of cosmetic effect to set them apart from their counterpart. The Sharp Dresser has unique animations and backstab kill icon. The Holy Mackerel has the hit counter (enough of a difference to class it as a separate weapon). The Lollichop enables Pyrovision. And so on.

You could also take a screenshot of the Main Menu portrait showcasing the Swashbuckler's Swag set, he's very clearly holding the shattered version of the model. :v:

If I see right, this one tracks strange parts :downs:

But no halloween strange part ! Curious, no ?
But if it's a fictionnal item invented by the server admin, why did it name show in french ?

Rate me Boxes, but do you think Valve could add bleeding damage to the broken Bottle mode with code?
reskins should be styles since thats what styles are for

It is broken.
Just metaphorically.
[QUOTE=IRL_Snpc;36595705]Rate me Boxes, but do you think Valve could add bleeding damage to the broken Bottle mode with code?[/QUOTE]
It's a crit-based mechanic.
While it's possible, I certainly wouldn't want to have a mechanic that relies on a critical hit when there's no way to guarantee a crit like the rifles and knives have.

A bit too late to change that now.
tell them in copy and pasteable words where the materials for it are.
I want the sharp dresser to have YER's stats.
probably won't happen

if it just started dropping today, the stat site might not have updated with the new item yet

Can you elaborate?
I just bought Team Spirit paint today, darn it.
