oh boy[/QUOTE]
Oh wow, I'm actually ok with these, well the bucket anyway. Plants vs. Zombies is a fun game, I just hope those of us who already own it get these hats.

Please come with a 75% off deal
I would double dip on PvZ if it were 2.50 and I got achievements.
[QUOTE=Ferenc;29496685]It's a bit of both really. You have your character and you can recruit people for your army. As you play you and your army gain experience you can upgrade them and yourself. You can also get more armour, weapons, horses, etc. You can join a faction, run a town, village or many towns/villages. You can eventually work your way up to king (in warband). It's quite a large game, and so are the battles, your army can be built up to have hundreds of soldiers and you can partake in massive battles and sieges. I'd highly recommend it to anyone but some might not like it. I believe it can be downloaded for free on taleworlds' website and you can play untill level 7, if you're interested in trying it out.[/QUOTE]
Oh, that sounds cool. Thanks for the explanation. Might try it out! :-)
I must say though, there are A LOT of promo items, it's starting to get a bit overwhelming.
Well, I like much Mount & Blade. Even there are awesome mods. And yes, it's like a sandbox game. M&B Warband has better graphics and multiplayer mode, but still there aren't many mods available. Let's see what happens whit this M&B.

a bit?
Damn, I MUST have that traffic cone hat
Could've gone with the Zomboss cranium for Medic or an Imp in a sling for Heavy misc. Instead go with road cone and bucket.
Why? If you're dead-set on PvZ tie-ins, it'd be rather nice to have items that don't need the flavor text to affirm that they are related to plants and/or zombies.
[QUOTE=tehMuffinMan;29496945]Damn, I MUST have that traffic cone hat[/QUOTE]
I mustn't have it, it's horrifically bright and ugly, and it looks like a 5 second texture job.

The cone and the bucket are the two most common and probably most notable items in the game, that's why.

I knew exactly where they came from after seeing them. The descriptions just confirmed my suspicions.
The bucket and cone are hats specific to PvZ. The blood on the cones is also in the same pattern as PvZ, and it's more of a subtle nod, rather than being completely in your face.
I always wanted to try Mount and Blade. Got the complete pack just now...my items haven't shown up yet though. I know, I know...I have OCD for backpack completeness.
i am trading some valve pack and potato sack games for mount and blade complete pack
[QUOTE=Ray-The-Sun;29497111]The cone and the bucket are the two most common and probably most notable items in the game, that's why.[/QUOTE]A road cone and bucket are not the most notable things in Plants vs Zombies. They are gameplay-related indicators of how occasionally one half of the most most common and notable part of the game (zombies) will take longer for the other most common and notable part of the game (the plants) to kill.
I played Plants vs Zombies all the time, and still go back to it occasionally, and have never had any special attachment to the headgear short of "Shit, a [i]zombie[/i] that'll take forever to kill". I paid attention to the valiant plants. I paid attention to the lumbering zombies. I paid attention to the giant who threw midgets at me and the madman in a mech that smashed my "soldiers" with goddamn jeeps. I paid attention to singing sunflowers. I did [i]not[/i] go "Gee that's a nice roadcone."

That's why I used the word "[I]items[/I]", which connotes an inanimate object :eng101:

$15 bucks per game? Oh hell naw. $2 sale time?
The hats are iconic. They even gave away promotional traffic cone hats at PAX.

[QUOTE=Ray-The-Sun;29497347]That's why I used the word "[I]items[/I]", which connotes an inanimate object :eng101:[/QUOTE]And which is also why I suggested replacement items that would represent PvZ clearer in TF2 in my original post, and which at worst would be classified as "inanimate" in the same way that the Alien Swarm hat is. I mean, I already have model files for a roadcone in my cache somewhere; if it wasn't one of the first "generic" hats created for server mods, then it was pretty damn close to it. Hell, even a "Screen Door" reskin for the Charge n' Targe would have had just a [i]tad[/i] more flair.
I dunno, it just seems kind of a waste to me to make promo items for such a conceptually unique little game and just port over headgear that was meant to show how unimaginative the wearers were. But maybe it's just me.
I want the dead cone. People've been saying you get it for plants vs zombies, but is there a proved way to get it?
the jannisary hat looks fucking sick. also the new m+b is gonna be good (and i dont own warband) and ive always heard the MP is good, so i preordered it for me + 2 frends :D
[QUOTE=PyroCraz3d;29497826]I want the dead cone. People've been saying you get it for plants vs zombies, but is there a proved way to get it?[/QUOTE]
not yet, it'll probably have something to do with PvZ, nothing announced so far, they're in game but not obtainable.
Does the Fish [del]sticks[/del] cake have any different stats? Is it just a Sandvich skin?
