Major Update Speculation Thread v12: Layoffs Edition - Games

[QUOTE=longbe96;39688402]I really hate these kinds of workshop submission, really don't fit Tf2 theme and also look disgusting.[/QUOTE] I hope it gets accepted just to piss you off.

Leviathan's price point, distribution and relative unpopularity will likely make it more expensive than buds.

[QUOTE=leonthefox;39688606]I hope we get a promo related to Ms fortune, I want run around dustbowl with a character wearing cat ears :v:[/QUOTE] Oh, I thought the character in your avatar was just raising their eyebrows.

Wait, what, Skullgirls promos? Well sign me up. I hope we get Peacocks hat or 8 bomb for the demoman [editline]23rd February 2013[/editline] Oh, guess not, how sad.

[QUOTE=The Calzone;39689084]stuff[/QUOTE] Or you could just play Street Fighter with Q

Does $30 net us the hat, beta, and the full game as well as it's promos? I can understand if it doesn't but I would hate to be getting the full game the indiegogo campaign but still miss out on the promos.

I don't see why not.

[QUOTE=Kapellmeister;39689262]Well, you're basically preordering the game so you should get the other hats too, yes. I don't see why not.[/QUOTE] Right it makes sense but with a lot of games if it's like a steam key from another retailer you wouldn't get the promos. I guess it's a stupid question to ask now as it will most likely be answered Monday.

I don't want this "Peacock's hat". We've already got plenty of top hats with gimmicks on 'em.

[QUOTE=HyperTails;39687228]We're getting that ugly snake looking thing in TF2? Ugh. [editline]23rd February 2013[/editline] That 'game' looks disgusting[/QUOTE] Anime girls fighting eachother Gee I sure didn't see this coming

[img]http://i.imgur.com/a4aQVk7.png[/img] Imagine if the bioshock cosmetics were never unlocked and just sat in tf2s files like the dota2 hats. Just imagine.

[QUOTE=Lium;39689820]I don't want this "Peacock's hat". We've already got plenty of top hats with gimmicks on 'em.[/QUOTE] It was just an example. I'm hoping that they will be a bit more creative and with the designs they have at their disposal I'm pretty sure they will be. [QUOTE=Zadrave;39689972]Anime girls fighting eachother Gee I sure didn't see this coming[/QUOTE] I don't understand why people act surprised when a game, or anything for that matter, boiled down to 4 or 5 words doesn't sound fantastical. Pokemon: Collect and fight animals. Left 4 dead: Zombie shooter with friends. TF2: Men shooting each other. (Hell, half of the video games these days could be given this summary)

Why are those hats even in the files anyway? Kinda pointless, just remove em.

[QUOTE=PimpinDemopan;39690521]Why are those hats even in the files anyway? Kinda pointless, just remove em.[/QUOTE] Five or six players have them, I believe. Dota 2 players. With their backpacks set to private.

[QUOTE=SLBros.;39690563]Five or six players have them, I believe. Dota 2 players. With their backpacks set to private.[/QUOTE] Why make a whole quality model for people that doesn't even play tf2

[QUOTE=Cosa8888;39690712]Why make a whole quality model for people that doesn't even play tf2[/QUOTE] Because they could.

[QUOTE=Cosa8888;39690712]Why make a whole quality model for people that doesn't even play tf2[/QUOTE] You know what they should do? First off, they should either make those Dota 2 items craftable/droppable, or turn them into Achievement Items. There would be 3 achievements added to Dota 2, and each of them would require winning 5, 10, and 15 times, respectively. For each achievement accomplished, you get one of the three random hats. So you could either get Sniper's Snipin' Glasses, Clockwerk's Helm, and Storm Spirit's Jolly Hat in that order, or it's Clockwerk, Sniper, and Storm Spirit in that order. Second, with the ever so few existing Dota 2 items, turn them into Vintage or Genuine, [b]or[/b] introduce a new quality, [i]Champion[/i]. As you might expect, it's a quality that gets applied to items that are gained from competitions/contests/tournaments. (Though, the former option seems more likely, which is understandable.) [b]Edit:[/b] Champion Sniper's Snipin' Glasses, Champion Clockwerk's Helm, Champion Storm Spirit's Jolly Hat. The quality adds a nice catch to their names...

[QUOTE=AbeX300;39690897]each of them would require winning 5, 10, and 15 times, respectively.[/QUOTE] rarest item ever

[QUOTE=Spot of Tea;39690420]I just want Sniper's Snipin' Glasses :([/QUOTE] Ever seen the storm spirit's hat in item viewer? IT LOOKS AMAZING Those rims

[QUOTE=MissingGlitch;39690774]Because they could.[/QUOTE] [IMG]http://wiki.teamfortress.com/w/images/9/96/Backpack_Sydney_Straw_Boat.png[/IMG]

[QUOTE=SLBros.;39690912]rarest item ever[/QUOTE] At least it'll be less rare! And hey, people would use SAM to get those items, anyway.

[QUOTE=Cosa8888;39690712]Why make a whole quality model for people that doesn't even play tf2[/QUOTE] Oh my god are people this dumb. The Companion Cube Pin was originally only given out to people who play tested Portal 2 at PAX 2010. Source: [url]http://wiki.teamfortress.com/wiki/Companion_Cube_Pin[/url] Why the fuck do people think those guys will be the only people who will ever get it?!

[QUOTE=Constructor;39691160]making them achievement items would just shit over the already bad player base by bringing people only in for the hats also, could you seriously not pick anything else for the quality name? like, heroic or something[/QUOTE] Hence why my alternative option of just making them craftable/droppable. And no, I couldn't think anything else, because my brain's retarded.

[QUOTE=BlindSniper17;39691230]The same thing happened with the SMNC promos. The TF2 fans griefed the game on purpose for hats. Go figure.[/QUOTE] SMNC was terrible when I played it, the player base is ten times worse then any other player base, not worth playing even for the hats.
