[QUOTE=TWKUK;52996234]you're the hero that this game deserves [sp]now that the precedent has been set, I just have to wait for someone to make a Pyro cosmetic that matches [I]my[/I] fursona[/sp][/QUOTE] I could actually make mine completely if I used the Combustible cutie but I prefer it to actually be subtle if I do it and only stick my Star loadouts with the merc's mohawk and tomb readers instead. Also, it looks horrible if you rely on cosmetics that only cover one region of the character... I don't mind references and stuff, but I generally prefer a more subtle approach then an in your face approach personally.

[QUOTE=riki2cool;52996270][URL="https://wiki.teamfortress.com/wiki/Creature_From_The_Heap"]This[/URL] has been in the game since SF 2013 my dude[/QUOTE] wow how did you know I was talking about an opossum EDIT: on a less jokey note, I checked out the changes to Merc Park. they're nice additions, the forward spawn in particular, but they don't seem to do much to address the core problems with the map. I think a good change to make would be to move the air vent passageway out of that small room that it's in and move it further back into Blu territory. the problem with it at present is that it's meant to be a flank route, but using it forces you to run through another choke point, letting everyone see you and exposing you to fire, completely undermining the purpose of a flank route.

[QUOTE=Blackavar;52996277]I want badass Pyro cosmetics, not stuff that comes out of Pyroland. Remember, Pyro sees those things, not the player.[/QUOTE] Then make some m'dude

[QUOTE=Rajikaru;52996302]Then make some m'dude[/QUOTE] or pay someone to make them for you and submit them. But yeah, if you want something in the game like that the best way to go about it is to learn how to do it yourself. It'll give you experience in making them, allow you full freedom in how it'll turn about and best of all, you'll get a neat self-made variant if it gets accepted. Not to mention you'll get a little cash on the side as well.

There's a bunch of cool rad badass stuff for the pyro on the workshop but valve keeps choosing the furbait

[QUOTE=NeoDement;52996281]I'm the modeler/texturer for the Cat's Pajamas and I'd just like to formally apologize to everyone in the thread[/QUOTE] Do you also apologize for the banana? :v:

is it just me or does the runner's rhythm just not play any sounds?

[QUOTE=riki2cool;52996315]There's a bunch of cool rad badass stuff for the pyro on the workshop but valve keeps choosing the furbait[/QUOTE] that just means they know their audience

[QUOTE=TWKUK;52996324]that just means they know their audience[/QUOTE] Who's niche interests do not coincide with the art style or theme of the game. This is not fur simulator 2017, no matter how hard some people want it to be.

hoping they don't fix the australium festives and maybe add on festivizers for the australiums without skinned counterparts

[QUOTE=NeoDement;52996281]I'm the modeler/texturer for the Cat's Pajamas and I'd just like to formally apologize to everyone in the thread[/QUOTE] No need to apologize, though I just ended up with the cat ears in my lap. I'd much sooner wear these instead of a banana.

[QUOTE=Goodwell;52996351]No need to apologize, though I just ended up with the cat ears in my lap. I'd much sooner wear these instead of a banana.[/QUOTE] I dont think Valve will top the banana with anything. It's possibly the worst hat ever added and will stay the same for quite some time.

patch inbound 5.1mb -Fixed missing sounds for the new taunts -Fixed a bug that prevented already-Festivized weapons from drawing their lights -Updated materials/model for the Blast Blocker -Updated the Heals for Reals medals so they can be painted

5MB update out. edit: think that was the first time I've been :ninja:'d

So the festivizer shit was intentional after all.

Damn it. I just uncrated a festivizer, but it won't let me do it.

[QUOTE=Talvy;52996378]Damn it. I just uncrated a festivizer, but it won't let me do it.[/QUOTE] Do what?

[QUOTE=qubestf2;52996381]Do what?[/QUOTE] it

What he said. It works now tho'

You can still festivize stocks/aussies. Just tried. Some people are apparently saying it got patched? It says I can festivize it but when I press "Accept" nothing happens, probably because of Item Servers being down rn.

I usually don't really use festives, but just for the heck of it I'm gonna festivize one of my aussies.

Scout bongos have sound now. I can hear it anywhere in the entire map if any scout is playing them though. May just be the map I am on.

Are festivizers always this expensive when winter hits or are people trying to capitalize on the fact that you can use them on aussies? Either way i already did it to my aussie wrench and medigun.

[QUOTE=Yukinari;52996407]Are festivizers always this expensive when winter hits or are people trying to capitalize on the fact that you can use them on aussies? Either way i already did it to my aussie wrench and medigun.[/QUOTE] They're expensive because you can apply it to alot of items atm.

Yep. [T]https://i.imgur.com/yq99oIf.png[/T]

[QUOTE=qubestf2;52996412]They're expensive because you can apply it to alot of items atm.[/QUOTE] What else can they be applied to? More than just stock weapons?

[QUOTE=Yukinari;52996419]What else can they be applied to? More than just stock weapons?[/QUOTE] Stock weapons, strange weapons, aussies

Blame valve for accepting artstyle killers, not hardworking community members making what valve chooses to be successful items. Disliking items for their out of placeness is fine. Taking that out on the creators is not.
