Remember when the Sun-on-a-Stick was a Boston Basher and the Sharpened Volcano Fragment was an Axtinguisher? Yeah...

I do not remember that. Though, it gives me some hope..

These stats show up in-game on the sword, while those weapons were only known from the press release.
They really released the hair. Damn.
Never know if the stat'll get changed at a future time.
I hardly ever see anyone use the Boston so we might not see the sword at all if it's just a reskin.
To me it doesn't matter, I'm completely into Brink right now. :v:
Some sword facts
- Scout pulls it out like the bat (so he flips it... and it looks awkward)
- Uses bat sounds
- The kill icon is low res and backwards
- It crashes servers
- No decaps
Good quality work I must say

[b]- It crashes servers[/b][/QUOTE]
INCONCEIVABLE RAGE.
Can't valve release a promo that [i]doesn't[/i] crash servers in some way?
The katana did it, and now this?
Oh my god I just looked into it and it [i]crashes the server just having the thing equipped[/i], no requirements, it just breaks the game.
:bravo:

This made me really laugh. It's so sad, it's even funny. Valve, what the fuck are you doing? You release a weapon that should be the same weapon like an existing one just with a different model and it crashes the game? That's comedy here...

Seems that just equipping it [i]outside of the game[/i] makes your game crash.
Yeah.
I'd be surprised if they didn't fuck up anything actually
Well, I never use the Boston Basher, and the hat looks like shit.
Still want the Dogtag, though.
Hero's Tail's turn for ridicule
- Also crashes the game
- It says it's paintable and has the right VTF to be paintable, but paint currently does not show up on the hat
I just tried crafting it twice and fail. All my weapons are gone. :v:
Good thing I'm already idling, screw this update.
Hey guys, I'm sorry for being an idiot and not reading the update thread before making a thread of my own about the promo.
Swords are dangerous. They'll cut your fucking HANDS OFF!
Give a sword to a kid. Expect him to use it properly. :v:
Okay, first, I couldn't understand the whole dislike here. I thought, the items are looking pretty good since I like "The Witcher". I had faith, that this would be a good promotion. I really thought there were going to be some unique stats, even if they only improved medieval, that would be neat anyway. I thought they would give it the sandman pull-out animation to not clip with the scouts arm. I didn't even thought about there would be painting issues or game-crashes or even a twisted kill icon. To sum it up: This is the worst ever promotion. How can a game developer put so little effort in doing something like that? They just have to see those issues if they tested it first, but they didn't even! They are throwing those items in the game like garbage bags in the landfill. I am disappointed. All over. Long time I was an enemy of those "Valve iz ohnlie making teh moneyz!" people, but slowly I can understand it.
These items JUST got released.. You seriously can't expect them to be 100 percent perfect. Items NEVER are. Why is this a surprise?
[QUOTE=PyroCraz3d;29802536]I just tried crafting it twice and fail. All my weapons are gone. :v:[/QUOTE]
You can't even craft it yet.
It's not all bad
Scout now apparently has a new body group. One for the dogtag a, so it opens the door for some different mods to be made.
Using the new bodygroup could also open the door to maybe having Scout's hatless be paintable

Most new items don't completely destroy the game.
Seriously, that's like, beta-test priority number one- MAKE SURE THE SHIT WORKS.

That's something very cool actualy.

TF2 is a cash cow and dev's know this. They don't care as long as they get dat munny. It really does the Witcher no justice, honestly. I guess when you try to model a serious thing to a cartoony thing, they over-exaggerate. :v:

No, you're right. The problem is: Everything is fucked up. We are getting weapons without even being used once before they are getting added in.
[QUOTE=MrParalegal;29802726]You can't even craft it yet.[/QUOTE]
Yeah you can. It says they have craft numbers, and people have them.
[QUOTE==DarkStar=;29802747]That's something very cool actualy.[/QUOTE]
The hair bodygroup was actually just hwm being stupid and making it seem like there was a new group.
Only the dogtags got a new group.
