Major Update Speculation V16: The Monoculus RIFT Well Spun Hat Promo Edition

I still don't see why they did not make the Samson Skewer (Brock Samson's knife) a melee weapon. I think it would have fit nicely with Soldier or Sniper.
I was kind of hoping that since promotional items have changed between Poker Night 1 and 2, that we would be able to get some weapons with stats. Guess not though. :/

Melee reskins are always a terrible thing. Even when they're ham or bones.

I don't know how to react to the fact that we instantly think of melee reskins now when we think of promo items.
[QUOTE=The Calzone;40050162]Melee reskins are always a terrible thing. Even when they're ham or bones.[/QUOTE]
At least some of them has some sort of variety to them. The one that I like the best is the Apoco-Fists, but had they made it a KGB reskin ([b]including[/b] the "crit kill will gib" thing), I would love it even more.
[QUOTE]>Is DOD:S still on track for release this week?
Probably not. We have a few outstanding regressions.
I could use some help gathering data to reproduce these bugs or confirm them
closed.
Audio files specified in .RES file not downloaded. (Possibly related to Linux
case sensitivity?)

Sounds in .bsp not playing. (It would help to have an example .bsp that has
sounds in it that don't play, and doesn't involve a bunch of extra custom
assets outside the .bsp.)

Any examples of clients not reporting the sv_pure status properly?
[url]https://github.com/ValveSoftware/Source-1-Games/issues/234[/url]
Hopefully we can fix any important regressions (i.e. bugs that are not newly
introduced by the SteamPipe filesystem changes) in a week or so.
We'll give everybody on this list several days notice before we flip the
release game to SteamPipe.

I hope they add scout or soldier to the poker night 2 roster

Items with unique stats only obtainable by buying another game? Do you not realize how stupid that is?
man I honestly wonder why they decided to make tf2 last for releasing
like I am okay that they are making sure everything works before releasing it for TF2 but seriously when did they start caring
really that's just another piece of evidence to throw on the pile that the TF2 team got some actual responsible adults working on it
[QUOTE=I AM THE LAW;40050812]I hope they add scout or soldier to the poker night 2 roster[/QUOTE] Soldier or Demoman would be a good fit like I said earlier (we saw them playing Poker in the MVM trailer). Or Engineer, since the Heavy claimed the Engi brought him there. I've personally thought of a workaround for as to how Poker Night events could be canon (and two possible explanations to make Heavy's stories canon), but fuck it, no one cares about headcanons. But here's the thing- how is Poker Night canon to Sam and Max, Penny Arcade and Homestar Runner but not TF2? It should be canon for all participants imo, but meh, whatever, Valve.
Spy would fit the Poker Night scene pretty well too I think, being the suave, charming ladykiller he is.
Hm...why didn't Telltale use the HWM Heavy in Poker Night 1?

It's probably because even though they use TF2 to test stuff a lot, they're porting Steampipe back from newer versions of Source where they already know the system works rather than implementing it now in a totally untested form
Steam has died as of 6:22 PM CDT

Steam of course.
Steam is kind of back for me now.
It's now (for sure) back.

I meant as pre order items.

The game already has around 5 or 6 items from just buying it. Would it really need another set of items to make it sell?

Well it certainly would if it did! :v:

I must admit I'd be very tempted to pre-order if there was an amazing pre-order bonus.
Hey guys, remember when Valve fixed tf_zombie crashing linux servers? It's broken again.
Turns out there is a new infinite Uber glitch :suicide:
[b]Edit:[/b] It might actually be a hack. I'm not 100% sure, I've heard reports on both.
Still no Keys. Wonder what is making Brock Samson so late?
Also, I unboxed Strange Bacon Grease, Strange PDA, and Strange Splendid Screen. Do you guys think I should sell them while prices are high?

A Screen sold for 4.5 keys yesterday, get that shit gone.
Good to see the screen price is dropping greatly, because i actually want one
