[QUOTE=Benvil;29788948]Sadly, that is rarely the case. Bill's Hat... Now, THAT was a promo.[/QUOTE] Well i think Homefront and Poker Night items fit quite well
[QUOTE=Benvil;29788948]Sadly, that is rarely the case. Bill's Hat... Now, THAT was a promo.[/QUOTE] It was good because valve wasn't worried about pumping out monthly promos. Now they're scrounging for a new game to pimp out. Hell I think they're going beyond monthly, since spacechem, mount and blade, and now the witcher are only a week or so apart.
[QUOTE=lol user;29788991]Well i think Homefront and Poker Night items fit quite well[/QUOTE] Homefront Hachi looks good, but it's still pretty fucked to give it to Soldier when it have a communism based logo on it. Most of the Poker Night item was pretty decent too yeah. But the Shuttershades is terribly unfitting, and even Valve admitted that.

-snip that is silly-

The witcher is this months 1st promo, [i]exactly[/i] a week apart from PvZ's promo's end date.
GLaDOS was right, comedy = tragedy + time. These promos are hilariously sad. Good on the bugfixes tho.
Those are probably the worst promo items ever. I really wish they did the same thing they did with the Shogun 2 promo items, and got an already respected community modeler to make the items.

We got a Hatless update. Let's see if we get a Promoless update.
[QUOTE=HyperTails;29789411]We got a Hatless update. Let's see if we get a Promoless update.[/QUOTE] It'd probably break the game harder than the hatless one did..

I still hoping for the day when Valve release a big update fixing this: [QUOTE=Benvil;29788593]Taunts missing, poor animations, poorly textured and modelled items... Tell me, when did you last use a Sco-Res? Try to equip one, or a Kritzkreig, even on max settings your eyes bleed. TF2 is filled with bugs and poor optimization, and Valve stopped giving a fuck because they prefer spitting out promos.[/QUOTE] And then I will happy again, I don't want lose another great game just because Valve is doing another "Test"
This is worse than the Rift set because of the hair. And that the sword will probably be used in medieval mode (unlike the rift whateverthefuckitis) thus I will see it.

[QUOTE=The Baconator;29789574]This is worse than the Rift set because of the hair. And that the sword will probably be used in medieval mode (unlike the rift whateverthefuckitis) thus I will see it.[/QUOTE] In b4 it goes the way of the Concheror and gets disabled in medieval.
I wish these promo's would stop. Theres to many hats in the game now that I can't even run TF2 without it lagging its self to death.
[QUOTE=The Calzone;29789665]In b4 it goes the way of the Concheror and gets disabled in medieval.[/QUOTE] They have yet to disable a single melee weapon in Medieval mode, I don't fully understand their reasoning behind the Concheror though...
Speaking of lagging, when do you guys think that the number of hats will simply make TF2 unplayable? Will it ever happen? If it does, I will laugh sooooo hard.
Was the hair really necessary Valve I could have accepted a medallion and a sword but this hair isn't even consistent with the other hair hats goddamn.
[QUOTE=Psycho_Shadow;29789729]Speaking of lagging, when do you guys think that the number of hats will simply make TF2 unplayable? Will it ever happen? If it does, I will laugh sooooo hard.[/QUOTE] cp_steel wasn't playable for a while because there were too many hats.
[QUOTE=DJF;29789911]cp_steel wasn't playable for a while because there were too many hats.[/QUOTE] I remember that.... Good/bad times depending on how you look at it.
We are to blame for this
what the fuck that looks ridiculous
[QUOTE=HyperTails;29789932]We are to blame for this[/QUOTE] True, The only reason Valve still makes promos is because we the fanbase buy the games for the promos...
I don't consider Valve bad people to support other games, but not several times a month.
i reckon if they stopped making the hats tradable, lots more people would stop caring a lot of people want the promo items simply to trade off for their initial value
[QUOTE=Psycho_Shadow;29789729]Speaking of lagging, when do you guys think that the number of hats will simply make TF2 unplayable? Will it ever happen? If it does, I will laugh sooooo hard.[/QUOTE] Update 302: Added 3 new hats: Shitty pyro ladies hat, low quality texture heavy hat, another retextured masters yellow belt. Added 1 new unusual particle effect- bubbles Update 303: Fixed Gamebreaking bug Removed Scout Update items. Removed "Fear" effect.
