Aww man I don't even own any of these hats any more.. It's enough pain to look at all the unusuals I cant afford
[QUOTE=Jorori;39172976]Holy shit, I can't believe what I'm seeing. They are seriously make normal cosmetic items limited to make people buy them?
Did TF2 just JUMP THE FUCKING SHARK!?[/QUOTE]
No, you won't be able to buy them either.
[QUOTE=Mario6493;39173020]No, you won't be able to buy them either.[/QUOTE]
He probably means to buy them while still available
[QUOTE=Mario6493;39173020]No, you won't be able to buy them either.[/QUOTE]
saying it 2 weeks in advance does really seem like a tactic to get people to stock up on them/freak the FUCK out of the trading community
tf2 has always been a testbed
Good Lord

I don't mind this idea. The number of hats continues to get larger with each update. The old hats are nice in their own right, but I'd be lying if I said I don't get a little mad when I accidentally craft one of them.
This retirement system allows them to be a bit more respected/valued instead of being thrown around like used napkins. It's not like they're gone from the game for good.
jesus people actually care this much over hats
i thought it was a joke

The hats started the hat craze, they are history. We need to save our history.

time to sit on them until the economy collapses

i blame that motherfucker right there he ORCHESTRATED ALL OF THIS
[QUOTE=Populus89;39172045]Well this is a horrible start to 2013.
GG Valve.[/QUOTE]
At least it can't get any worse.
Right?
Seeing how they get a share of each transaction this is the best way to make money from it. Shame on you Valve, 2 days ago I was defending you.
[QUOTE=Segab;39172951]It all makes sense now.
Those hats were merely worth 1.22 refined, so nobody bought them from the store.
Valve wasn't making any profit from these hats because everyone were crafting them or trading for them.
Now the only way to get them will be with trading or with the market.
Prices will go up because they're rarer. Higher prices mean more dosh from market sales.
Money.[/QUOTE]
It makes perfect sense now. They are made by Valve so they don't need to worry about creators being paid
[QUOTE=Totenkreuz;39171453]Vintage prices won't change the same amount of them are around irregardless of whats about to happen. Think things through.[/QUOTE]
They will.
More players, crafting, inactive accounts.
Look at the gold price, we aren't losing gold, yet the price goes up. Think things through.

cheeky bastard
1.1k likes on facebook? WHO THE FUCK IS LIKING THIS SHIT
Not sell them?
Who cares
But to remove from drop and crafting..........
this is beyond messing with rich traders. These are QUALITY hats. Yes, even the football helmet has its charm.
Why?
Valve making retarded decisions since 1999.
so uhm, today i was thinking to get my hands on a ming light for a loadout idea i've had in a while...
;_;
holy macaroni, i want to scream.

Who would craft vintage hats?
I got a vintage batters helmet, a vintage football helmet and a vintage lime green beanie. I'm prob gonna be willing to rid myself of all but the beanie. May have non vintage other hats like demo fro. Oh I also have the stash I guess...
[QUOTE=psyke;39172345]This isn't like valve[/QUOTE]

i dunno there's some areas in half-life that suggest otherwise
[QUOTE=Tiesno;39173295]i dunno there's some areas in half-life that suggest otherwise[/QUOTE]
The metric ton of removed and changed stuff in the story and content says otherwise.
Anyway this economist is retarded as shit. He will end up making valve lose money.

well to be honest i was trying to make a joke about the original one having silly little areas in it but yeah you got a point there

This will probably have little, if any, long term effect on the price of the unique variants
guys
these are cosmetic items
who cares

As well as the fact these hats have been in circulation for 4 or so years now. Only unusuals will be effected.

These items are so old they're pieces of the game's legacy, being the first hats ever released
