I'm staying up for a few more hours to see if anything happens. Fuck you Valve!
Maybe it's just another cool hat for no reason.

Ow, it hurts my brain just trying to think how this works
[QUOTE=tankkiller;18159315]Maybe Bill is the Soldier 40 years in the future.[/QUOTE]
No, Bill would be dead.
edit: If you mean the soldier is bill then... :psypop:
[QUOTE=CaptainQuirk;18159285]Is that relevant to anything?
Also, it might go to playtime in L4D[/QUOTE]
Wow, where have you been since the Classless Update?
[QUOTE=theguydude;18159343]No, Bill would be dead.[/QUOTE]
Silly TheGuyDude, Bill can't die. You just have to rescue him from the closet again.
Gabe talked about cross-promotion stuff in a recent interview.

This leads me to believe the hat has something to do with pre-ordering L4D2 or owning the original L4D.
Lol just now found the hidden link for Gibus... :smug:
Veterans' day, don't play TF2 all day in memory of veterans and you get a hat! :v:
Maybe it's for Veteran's Day hence the name Veteran's Beret
[QUOTE=Bremmy;18159374]This leads me to believe the hat has something to do with pre-ordering L4D2 or owning the original L4D.[/QUOTE]
Or preorder + owning...
Damn! Veteran's Day! Brilliant except that's only in the U.S?
L4D happens in 2009, TF2 happens in 196#, Bill didn't fight in Vietnam, he fought in 2fort!

This is also logical
Yep, guessing it's related to Veteran's Day.
It's gonna be a loooong nine days.

True Dat
[QUOTE=The Gambler;18159323]I'm staying up for a few more hours to see if anything happens. Fuck you Valve![/QUOTE]
lol ragers.
I hope it's some super-exclusive hat that's impossible to get so it's actually special unlike the gibbus, even if I don't get it.
I remember Gabe saying something about content relating to people owning TF2 and L4D in an interview. Here it is. [url]http://www.gamespot.com/xbox360/action/left4dead2/video/6238431/gabe-newell-today-on-the-spot-extended-interview[/url] He talks about it at 7:58.
I really dislike games that give you extra content for pre-ordering them. It's a dirty business tactic.
You know, I missed when it seemed like hats would just be fun little cosmetic goodies. Now they're fucking stupid status symbols. I prefer customization over luck-based surprises any day.
God dammit Valve, tell us how to get it.

Clocks for you.
This was on the HLDS mailing list:
[QUOTE]
A required update for Team Fortress 2 is now available. Please run hldsupdatetool to receive it. The specific issues include:
- Fixed client-side perf problem after changing levels on Koth_Harvest_Event.
Linux:
- Add warning if +map is not specified on the command line
- Steam is located by searching .., . and $PATH
- Added -steambin option to specify location steam, overrides search
- Added -steamverify option to add -verify_all when updating with steam
Jason[/QUOTE]
However, this [i]is[/i] the Dedicated Server update list, so it's possible the client update has other stuff (although I'm basically basing this on the fact that none of the stuff after the Harvest bullet makes sense to me).
We will probably get it on November 11th (Veterans Day)
Coincidence?

I'm guessing it will be both tied into L4D(2) and released on Veteran's Day.
lol: have a hat that replaces heavy with gabe.

TF2 took place in 1968.
so 2009 - 1968 = 41 years old
sounds reasonable...

I see what you did there.

I want this on my soldier. NOW
[QUOTE=MarioMagneticStar;18159577]you best be trollin'[/QUOTE]
Sorry but no, I hadn't even played TF2 enough to realize that it was out for the first day or two.
