[freezenification]

Ugh that competitive matchmaking beta pass is such a tease. I want it so badly!

Me too.
Please kill me.

[QUOTE=Mio Akiyama;48106221]I love the new startup music, but what about the Meet the Sniper music? How many years has it been and we stil don't have it?[/QUOTE]

Wouldn't that be a licencing problem with the copyright holders for the Magnum Force theme and they'll have to go down the route of the Someone else's Song/Engineer's theme changes?

So no new cosmetics, is this the first major update since sniper vs spy without hats?

more importantly, [I]why[/I]. Did they think hats would make us forget about neon pink weapon skins or something?

[Scruffel]

Ok so apparently I tried to inspect a Specialized Killstreak Kit Fabricator and my game crashed

Hatless "update"

[_charon]

If the download gets stuck for you, switch into one of the beta branches and back out. It'll be fixed after it stops trying to download the beta branch.

But servers in quickplay shouldn't have that issue anyway, that makes no sense.

[QUOTE=Druidlyclean;48106251]There's a bunch of Asteroid models on Powerhouse, like models that aren't on asteroid yet.[/QUOTE]

Calling it here, asteroid was scrapped

which would be a shame since I love that map

[Judas]

whats the default keybind to inspect your weapon

[void~]

Powerhouse is the map shown in Meet Your Makers.

[QUOTE=Tinker;48106298]But servers in quickplay shouldn't have that issue anyway, that makes no sense.[/QUOTE]

It actually makes a lot of sense. No matter how hard Valve tries, players will find loopholes to exploit. Keeping stats on Valve servers prevents griefing and farming for rare items

+inspect is F

BFB double jump removes the equivalent of 75% of a full boost bar.

Poopy Joe was mentioned on the teaser billboards as well, might be connected to a space update with rd_asteroid?

-Edit- Are those blocks in Morse code? Anyone able to decode it?

[Hell-met]

and of course the traditional item server down which completely ruins the point of it all

[VintageCat]

So uh, my Festive Scattergun is not quite festive

wrapped reviver medi-gun

also new sniper rifle texture

[Druidlyclean]

My revolver reload animation works

[Creeps]

Just a thing:

After about half of the operation (in csgo) Pass goes on -50%/-75%

Soo

Yeah

[Judas]

it seems you can only inspect weapons that have skins applied to them

[testinglol]

-nvm-

[QUOTE=NeoDement;48106036]Anyone excited about the Afterburner tease should chill out, I guess:

[I]
Ooops! We test a bunch of different items internally to see what can be done with them and sometimes they’re accidently used in images like that. We haven’t made any decisions about the Afterburner.

-Eric[/I][/QUOTE]

:(

[Komppu]

Can aynone who knows how this works on CSGO can tell me how easy is it to sell cases and get money back?

[Judas]

lmao bullshit there's no way they accidentally put an item in sfm and accidentally put in in place and accidentally took a picture of it and accidentally edited it in post
