Major Update Speculation XXVI: Much Ado About Nothing - Games

[QUOTE=Rumia;48122808]So they made another contract just so crates dropped? At least now we know they can make new contracts whenever they want, so we also know scarce contracts mean them trying to mantain high market prices[/QUOTE] Well other people are saying the week resets on Saturday, so that might be why. That's just speculation though, nobody knows for sure yet.

wait, weapon crates don't just drop at random like normal crates? that's shit

So it's possible to permanently move any contract you get into the visible part of the backpack. I wonder how the game reacts if you delete one of them while they are active

Wow, the readability on some of these painted miniguns is just atrocious.

Well, I missed the whole killstreak kit thing Is there any another glitch that prints money?

Just fabricated the kit. So, it looks like if you got a kit or fabricator in time, you're good. They just won't drop anymore.

[QUOTE=Supacasey;48122936]Just fabricated the kit. So, it looks like if you got a kit or fabricator in time, you're good. They just won't drop anymore.[/QUOTE] I've sold 2 max's for twice their regular price, and i nabbed 2 fabricators for a few bucks last night in case of a hotfix :v:

[QUOTE=Supacasey;48122936]Just fabricated the kit. So, it looks like if you got a kit or fabricator in time, you're good. They just won't drop anymore.[/QUOTE] So...those kits on market can be created still, and applied? Better get em before they go up to $400 apiece.

Just made my money back and then some from a case. Quite happy with that!

[QUOTE=Supacasey;48122936]Just fabricated the kit. So, it looks like if you got a kit or fabricator in time, you're good. They just won't drop anymore.[/QUOTE] I tried but sadly none of my parts are being accepted into the kit. My life is bad :suicide: EDIT: I'm stupid, I forgot to check off the untradable items included box. Life is good again.

Got a case, opened a case. Factory new Night Terror. And now I'm the third person on the market to sell one :v: [t]http://i.imgur.com/6G8jVdc.png[/t] Gettin' rich off weapons that are gonna be as common as dirt in a short while

[QUOTE=Poopy Joe;48123037]I tried but sadly none of my parts are being accepted into the kit. My life is bad :suicide:[/QUOTE] Drag and drop them one by one into the required materials spaces? Check and uncheck "Show untradable items?" I had to do weird stuff like that a couple times.

I know what Valve should give to mapmakers who got their maps in from the workshop. Community Citizen Pain (jimi-jams) Miniguns! We all love placing overlays like the Jimi Jams sign in our maps, so let Valve place the gracious JIMI JAMS Minigun (and the corn thing, ew) in our inventories. Maybe then I will be motivated to actually get far enough to detail a map.

[QUOTE=TheMooseman;48123097](and the corn thing, ew)[/QUOTE] We should ask them to make a blue jimijam and a red corn and make them separate skins because, let's be honest, the corn sucks balls and we all love our jimijams

[QUOTE=Supacasey;48122694]Tried fabricating a kit, said it was successful but all it did was consume the materials and give the the fabricator back. Fuck.[/QUOTE] Mine seemed to have worked. At last, I have a Killstreak HOUWAR with a lovely green shine [t]http://images.akamai.steamusercontent.com/ugc/441700297719803751/39E5918562FE2A0AB33298FF6DDA0BDFC038B9FD/[/t]

What do you think for how much a KS Gibus would go for?

[QUOTE=kamuixmod;48123234]What do you think for how much a KS Gibus would go for?[/QUOTE] I'll give you 1 refined

[QUOTE=kamuixmod;48123234]What do you think for how much a KS Gibus would go for?[/QUOTE] I'm not sure but I'd want one, no joke. The gibus is classic.

[QUOTE=Zenamez;48123226]Mined seemed to have worked. At last, I have a Killstreak HOUWAR with a lovely green shine [/QUOTE] But can you and others see the sheen?

[QUOTE=Poopy Joe;48123292]But can you and others see the sheen?[/QUOTE] He probably can if he mods the items VMT to include the sheen parameters. But others can't, unless they do the same.

It's just text really.[I] Expensive text.[/I] *Edit* Can someone link me to the post where it had all the info you need to add the sheen to the hat in question? I swear I read it 5 minutes ago but now I've lost it.

[QUOTE=Zenamez;48123439]No sheen unless I use the VMT mod. It's just text really.[I] Expensive text.[/I][/QUOTE] Well, I guess I'll just keep the kit and not apply it to anything :v:

so barnblitz for me now explodes the bomb hatch immediately after the round starts, and the outline on the bomb disappears. blue can't find the bomb and it becomes a big issue. is this new?

Right. I'll admit it. I think I was a bit overly-critical of this update at the beginning. The contracts are way better than I thought they'd be - it's making me want to play TF2 again in the same way that Hearthstone dailies do and I've already made the coin money back plus an additional £2.50. It's pretty great. I just wish I could play more of them! And powerhouse as a map is actually incredible. It's [I]real[/I] fun! Seriously I think it might be one of my new favourite maps. [I]Some[/I] of the balances are better than I thought they'd be too. The Big Earner buff is great considering I already used that knife anyway and the cloak and dagger is actually worth using now. I'm still a bit sad they didn't add the competitive beta in this update because that's going to be real big for me as I keep saying but this is a fine update to tide me over. Didn't expect the contracts to be this fun to be honest!

powerhouse is literally hydro 2.0

[QUOTE=TheJoey;48123630]so barnblitz for me now explodes the bomb hatch immediately after the round starts, and the outline on the bomb disappears. blue can't find the bomb and it becomes a big issue. is this new?[/QUOTE] It's a glitch. I though they patched it, though. What happens is that a player, when they die on the bomb hatch, they trigger an explosion with their dropped weapon/ammo pack.

Am I the only one who thinks snowplow sucks. It's so confusing

It's fine now after playing it for about an hour. Personally, I really hate the awkwardness that comes when playing on a new map or mode or whatever. And ammo seems like they're scarce all of a sudden because you know fuck all where they're located.

I love the campaigns I DON'T like how DX9 configs are difficult to run on my computer, so I get to see the skins at the cost of frames. Any recommendations? Rhapsody's config (which is the best imo) doesn't allow DX9, so you can't see the skins while using it :( God damn it Valve why can't Windows users get an OpenGL graphics setting, it would help a shit ton
