Major Update Speculation V5: Somewhere over the rainbow - Games

[QUOTE=Lord Exor;36737428]If you're wrong, I'm going to laugh at your optimism. Conversely, if I'm wrong, you can laugh at my pessimism. Deal?[/QUOTE] Why does noone believe me there will be a Summer Sale? FFS

[QUOTE=Lord Exor;36737428]If you're wrong, I'm going to laugh at your optimism. Conversely, if I'm wrong, you can laugh at my pessimism. Deal?[/QUOTE] looks like you lose. Some games going 50% off right now until July 23rd, pre-emptive sale additions, happens before every major steam sale. [url]http://store.steampowered.com/sub/13005/[/url]

[QUOTE=COSTA;36737600]Why does noone believe me there will be a Summer Sale? FFS[/QUOTE] Summer Sale? Maybe. New TF2 content (cosmetics even) to celebrate it? Doubtful.

[QUOTE=Lord Exor;36737614]Summer Sale? Maybe. New TF2 content (cosmetics even) to celebrate it? Doubtful.[/QUOTE] I only said we'll have a TF2 update REGARDING the sale. It can be anything. A new achievement, summer crates, cosmetics. I never said it would be a BIG MAJOR UPDATE, just said we'll get something. They always do it in special sales, being TF2 the big F2P title and all. And if they don't add new crates, why do the Scorched ones ended yesterday then?

sale is starting officially in a half an hour, but discounts on most things in the store are already up [img]http://i.minus.com/igUyWpa7wxO26.png[/img]

[QUOTE=Jetamo;36737335]Everyone saying this is the end for TF2 You. are. morons. Seriously, they're still working on MvM/Tobor. Those heads in the SFM leak just confirmed to me that they're hard at work on MVM.[/QUOTE] If that's the case, then when are we gonna see this Tobor shit? September? October? Saving it for Australian Christmas? Maybe a 2013 thing to get everyone interested into TF2 again for a week? They gotta start pumping out more moderate content updates now, especially when DOTA2 goes live later this year. Right now to the average dude who doesn't follow Valve games or FP often, TF2 is on the brink of death because of the lack of major content this year. For them to not even have Summer-related items and shoving the dumb Pyromania update stuff as "Summer items" looks bad on Valve's part compared to last year's. I know everybody's been saying "WAIT FOR TOBOR" but I've been waiting for months on something good. I'm losing my patience.

Wait, the Steam Summer Sale badge has focus on voting. Is this gonna launch that Steam Greenlight alongside? Might be cool.

we're going to be able to vote on the sales [img]http://i.snag.gy/xt6wy.jpg[/img]

[QUOTE=Captain Chalky;36737898]Yeah, tell it to them bro-- Wait, Pyromania update? What's that?[/QUOTE] We got considerably less content with that update compared to past updates. I was amazed but I only got one of the new weapons. Hell, I'm still missing pretty much all the Pyro/Engineer Grordbort stuff since Valve's drop system is shit and wants to give me 500 Sandviches and Claisdamsdadasdmdmores instead. I'm surprised they never bothered to add new achievements for any of the new shit they put in that's not map-specific. Why not more milestones to unlock new weapons? There's probably many others like me who don't have all the weapons and don't want to dick around with trading to get them.

MY WALLET IS NOT READY FOR THIS

This may've been answered before, but are the Cherubs from MtP and Scout's mom in SFM?

Go on Outpost. Make a trade saying that you're buying all the Grordbort weapons for 1 scrap each, and all the Pyromania weapons for 2 scrap each. Bam, you'll have them all in a day with minimal work. Buying weapons in TF2 is one of the easiest things you can do.

"Steam Scouts, we also have some fun activities scheduled - don't forget to earn your badges (and check out your existing ones)." so it looks like there will be a sale meta-game after all.

If only I had Steam Mobile...

Why is it always hell on earth trying to join these official groups. There's no join button, but I don't have the achievement for joining.

[QUOTE=Totenkreuz;36738673]Why is it always hell on earth trying to join these official groups. There's no join button, but I don't have the achievement for joining.[/QUOTE] As far as I know it isn't working for anybody.

so there will be a new HOUWAR i wont be able to get because of unwanted vacations? EDIT: People should get off the steam store page so I can vote.

[QUOTE=hogofwar;36738758]As far as I know it isn't working for anybody.[/QUOTE] I managed to join the group earlier.

where do I see those achievements? Can't find them

[QUOTE=Kaze1;36738871]where do I see those achievements? Can't find them[/QUOTE] [url]http://steamcommunity.com/id/Bakaze/badges[/url]

If you joined the Summer Camp group last year then you're already in it. Community is just borked currently, it'll show up don't worry

>Purchase any discounted game, bundle or DLC during the Summer Sale Oh no now I actually have to spend money instead of trading for the games :( At least I just got a Paypal account yesterday.

[QUOTE=Segab;36739213] At least I just got a Paypal account yesterday.[/QUOTE] I got my new debit card TODAY, so how do you think I feel :P

I don't think we'd get those in source film maker until they hand out the assets for Meet the Spy, Medic and Pyro.
