You know, normally, when anything new is released, I rush to go farm achievements or get new shit
But I really just don't care :/
I'm pissed about OP Exclusive weapons, but I have a feeling they'll be obtainable ingame.
Having weapon skins is bad enough, because people need to see something and know what it is. If you have two skins for one weapon then it could cause you to know what weapon it is slower, and thus not having enough time to come up with a strategy to beat the enemy.
But promotional, exclusive unique stat weapons? Fuck off, I've supported/justified everything Valve has done including the Mann Co. Store, but if these unique-stat weapons are only for purchasers of Rift, then TF2 is ruined for me.
But I'm pretty optimistic that it won't be purchase only and that Valve would not pull off shit like this :3:
[QUOTE=Shugo;27841687]Okay, they got me. I can't defend this one.
Stats on exclusive promo items is crossing the line, Valve.[/QUOTE]I have to agree, even as a "Defender of TF2" I can't see any way to defend this one at.
God dam it.
[QUOTE=Keychain;27841724]I think we are all at an agreement when I say I should keep my mouth shut before TF2 updates.[/QUOTE]
You should...
[QUOTE=Suttles;27841715]1/10 on this update
unfitting weapons- check
special stats on a promo item- check
overpriced game- check
items gonna be worth a shitload- check
pay per month- check
Fuck[/QUOTE]
Don't forget about the LoDs and bugfixes...
hahaha the sun on a stick is so bad
Maybe the weapons aren't promo, but the hat thing is?

Thats all the changes they made to granary? :l
I was expecting something more useful.
Wait, there might be a bright side. What if valve adds items w/ the same stats, just different skin/model, and no purchases required, drops/store only.
[QUOTE=Mister B;27841691]They look fucking awesome.
It's just too bad you have to get a game to get them.[/QUOTE]
[QUOTE=Tabarnaco;27841682]You must be blind because they look pretty awesome.[/QUOTE]
God dammit! Why are people allowed opinions these days?
...mumble mumble...
...back in my day...mumble...whippersnappers...
I have a feeling this is a big mis-understanding that will fix itself as soon as Valve makes a blog post or something

have you played granary with that new change yet
argument invalidated
Why
why the fuck would you give the PROMO ITEMS FUCKING STATS. ARE YOU FUCKING JOKING.
Too far Valve, too far.
[QUOTE=DEMONSKUL;27841764]Maybe the weapons aren't promo, but the hat thing is?[/QUOTE]
Actually, only the two weapons are in TF2. The hat is only in Rift, but is earned in TF2.
[QUOTE=Leo Leonardo II;27841814]And the new achievement is... interesting.
Kill an enemy within 5 seconds of you traveling through an Engineer's teleporter. And then? Do I get something special?[/QUOTE]
You get a code to unlock a hat in Rift.

[url=http://www.riftjunkies.com/2011/02/03/rift-invades-team-fortress-2/#more-3891]Steam customers who pre-order Rift by March 1st will receive two exclusive melee weapons in Team Fortress 2: the “Sharpened Volcano Fragment” and “Sun-on-a-stick.” Additionally, the Valve team is adding a permanent Team Fortress 2 achievement that grants players a redeemable code for an equally exclusive (and terrifying) headpiece in Rift, the “Well Spun Hat.”[/url]
Afraid not.
Who wants to bet they will be purchasable, 25 dollars each, in the store.
[QUOTE=iWhatIsLove;27841770]Wait, there might be a bright side. What if valve adds items w/ the same stats, just different skin/model, and no purchases required, drops/store only.[/QUOTE]
They [b]better[/b]. :colbert:
I wanted Rift anyways, this is pretty awesome.
I am 100% certain that the items will be available through TF2 alone, simply because of the stats.
Because promo items with stats is the one thing everyone always mentions as the last straw. They couldn't have actually done it... could they?
I'm in denial.
[editline]3rd February 2011[/editline]
oh okay I was wrong, I guess, yep, wow valve, SPUF will destroy you now
Well only thing I can see the new on hit attribute being good for is for when the emporium does the electric event.
Solar is now possible.
[QUOTE=xpod1;27841761]hahaha the sun on a stick is so bad[/QUOTE]
gotta love how it's +35% damage against people on fire, it's as if they couldn't be arsed to code mini-crit detection on it (mini-crits are a 35% damage boost...)
[I]sigh[/I]
[QUOTE=Visiteur;27841741]Don't forget about the LoDs and bugfixes...[/QUOTE]
5/10 in that case
It certainly feels like they're testing the waters here.

well fuck.....I guess it's the beginning of the end for TF2....it already became almost unplayable for me due to constant crashing for no reasons, now if they start adding promo items with stats, I can only see shit from there.
SPUF is completly raging.
I really can't see myself not playing TF2 anymore for any reason short of taking classes out or something.
"The Sharpened Volcano Fragment and the Sun-on-a-Stick will be obtainable through crafting after the Rift pre-order period ends."
Oh thank god

Just wait until Feb 24th for the items
