"Blokes what bludgeon their wife to death with a golf trophy"
Oh. The promos are for the Witcher 2.
[QUOTE=t h e;29808085]Well, if it was a new weapon it would be entirely unfair for new players. [editline]14th May 2011[/editline] Just look at the Golden Wrench[/QUOTE] How is the Golden Wrench unfair? It's not like it has special stats.

This just in. The Witcher 2 sword works exactly like the Boston Basher. Hitting nothing will cut yourself in the process.

[QUOTE=Hackintosh;29808286]How is the Golden Wrench unfair? It's not like it has special stats.[/QUOTE] I didn't say it was unfair- I was using it as an example as to why the Saxxy Award Trophy couldn't have special stats and would have to be a reskin of an already existing weapon. (preferabbly the stock ones)

Yeah I think I might stick with my regular Boston Basher and give this a miss.
600mb? :colbert:

Great, 10 fucking minutes after I joined an idle server tf2 updates and I don't get any items
Quick note: If your TF2 keeps crashing while it's on the "Loading..." splash (aka the hl2.exe crash thing), I started having this issue after the update on the 12th. I tried everything from verifying the integrity of the cache, to defragging. I even tried reinstalling TF2 and a suggestion to delete the contents of "<username>/team fortress 2/tf/bin". Nothing worked and my TF2 kept crashing during the loading process. I was talking to FlaminSarge earlier and he mentioned renaming/deleting all the contents of "<username>/team fortress 2/tf". So I went through and deleted all the folders inside "<username>/team fortress 2/tf". Had some issues with deleting the "replay" folder, something about getting permission from Administrators (friggin' Win7), but I solved them by going into the replay folder and deleting the contents of it, which allowed me to finally delete the folder itself. Popped my favorite Launch Options, "-novid -nopreload" back in, and started up TF2.....no crash! tl;dr = if your tf2 is crashing everytime you hit the initial Loading... screen, delete the contents of "<username>/team fortress 2/tf". Worked for me.

For fucks sake. I'm getting real tired of these promos.
[QUOTE=Eeshton;29809955]For fucks sake. I'm getting real tired of these promos.[/QUOTE] If Valve doesen't do a promotion for Duke Nukem Forever id be surprised, picking all these other games but not Duke would hurt me emotionally.
[QUOTE=Totenkreuz;29809909]I do that. It only works ONCE. It will start crashing again when you're done playing....or crash[/QUOTE] Nah. Works just fine for me. See, the Hatless Update caused my TF2 to not let me connect to any servers. I'd get to like, 98% connected, and the game would freeze and say hl2.exe has crashed. Along came the Replay Update which fixed the game for me. I had no issues whatsoever. Then the update from the 12th rolled in and broke the game again. So I did the method I posted (which was told to me by FlaminSarge), and it's fixed my game. In the past few hours, I've started up/exited out of TF2 at least 20 times, due to working on and testing some SourceMod plugins for my server. But hey, what works for me obviously might not work for everyone else.
Would be nice if Valve added some sort of trophy system that kinda worked like achievements, but the trophies are like in a cabinet and aren't icons. Would be better than just slapping this on as a weapon skin.

Duke Misc shades for Heavy and a pack of bubblegum that functions like the Sandvich. If the Shades are equipped with the Hound Dog, they override the aviators

A cigar for the Soldier as a misc could be interesting too.
A gold heavy wig with sunglasses could work. Oh wait.
[QUOTE=Yukinari;29811462]Duke Nukem Noisemaker included.[/QUOTE]With unlimited usage so even you can be that one guy from that one Ventrilo video!
Hail to the king, baby.
This update seems to have completely cut me off from the item server. :smith:
Valve doesn't go to the company for promotions. The company goes to Valve. It's up to Gearbox if they want to promote duke Nukem in TF2.
