Are hat drops rare? All I ever get are weapons, it seems.

Though I did get the dead ringer the other night. (Finally)

Since the item drop system came out, I've gotten two hats from random drops. One of the others I put together from weapon drops, and the other I built out of Camera Bears when they went from being an "uncommon accessory" to full hats.

Camera bears wearing Gibuses. :-|

Gibuseses? Gibii?

Endaro · June 2010

I can only imagine how many hats someone would have if they could see the future. Keeping every item until this recent 2 items = 1 scrap recipe. Do you remember how many items people deleted before crafting existed because backpacks just got clogged? Or all those people who crafted unnecessary recipes like class/slot tokens to try them out? We could have been swimming in hats.

Adus · June 2010

I think I've gotten 5 hat drops.

3 of them have been the Engineer non-hat. It is getting annoying.

nealcm · June 2010

yeah if they had infinite inventory

back in the day we only had 50 slots!

undeinPirat · June 2010

adus, it's a sign

Are you a bald texan? Or perhaps a baldie majoring in engineering?

The game wants you to have that hat. For some purpose...

Adus · June 2010

I'm not even close to those things. I barely even play Engineer. Maybe it wants me to. But if it wanted me to, it would give me a cooler hat.

nealcm · June 2010

well if texas ten gallon is pistol engi, we have to figure out what the other hats are

i would hazard a guess that the bald engineer is the kind that does hoedowns

non

stop

preferably on top of his sentry or dispenser

UEAKCrash · June 2010

If he does them non stop, how is he going to be able to build the sentry or dispenser.

DUH.

Think, Mitchell.

nealcm · June 2010

if you were fast enough you could probably make one between hoedowns... this is a conundrum only the engineer could solve

undeinPirat · June 2010

i want to play this game tonight

and engineer

practice for the update

UEAKCrash · June 2010

Meh, I'll practice in a few months.

nealcm · June 2010

damnit undies, why do you play this game the one night i go out

undeinPirat · June 2010

because you are on the anti denying hatewagon

So, do those rankings take into account points gained from healing/teleporters? Or is it a mostly killing people thang

http://tf2wiki.net/wiki/Points

This is why it's easy to get points playing spy on PL defense. +1 for backstab, +1 for kill, +1 for defense

Antimatter · June 2010

whoa, who's denying me

deveric · June 2010

Yes, starting out with spy is easy, but as soon as you get a few chain kills in, the other team goes all (mostly) pyro...it's at that point sticking with it that becomes harder.

Oh yeah I know that I was just wondering whether pmavers' ranking thing was points based or kill based

NEO|Phyte · June 2010

Talked some TF2 with my brother today, he hates me because I have a respectless rubber glove.

I agree, I've gotten very complacent about spies since taking soldier as my main compared to times past.

But there are still a couple of spies I always make a note of when on the other team, and a few more coming up on my radar.

dammit roland. I think you're the only person here that has figured out my spy paths.

You sound like me. Soldier has become my backbone lately. For some reason I love to charge the banner.

Spoiler:

and parade my $4000 suit.

banner is the best because you become a mobile mini crit dispenser.

I love tooting my horn.

grats on one of the best hats pmavers

Endaro a couple of weeks ago I went on a hat crafting spree like yours but I didn't stop until I was down to my Helm and Tyrolean and no way was I gonna use one of those with the scout hat I've been sporting so gotta get another hat before I can continue.

BLOG UPDATE!

Listen!
June 30, 2010 - TF2 Team

Do you hear that? That ominous, otherworldly silence? That's what we in the game biz call the calm before a storm. And keep listening... do you hear that distant rumble? We call that thunder. It happens during a storm whenever it's not quiet.

All of these portents can only mean one thing: Something big is happening. The fact that everybody else on the team keeps telling me that it's only weather, and that weather can't talk to you, tells me they're all in on it. (And possibly not human? More on this later.)

Perhaps it's the upcoming Polycount Pack update making the hair on the back of my neck stand up, and the Australia-shaped hair on my back matte itself back down, since it means we'll be shipping the best of the amazing Polycount Contest entries. Be glad you're not one of us, forced to order that list of magnificent items into some kind of hierarchy. Maybe we'll just announce they've all won first place.

Or maybe it's the release of the Official TF2 Wiki that's made weather choose me as its emissary on Earth. Developed by the administrators of the unofficial TF2 wiki, it's a perfect place to find out everything you ever wanted to know about TF2, but were too afraid to type into Google. Head over there and see if you can help them out. If you're a useful enough contributor, the weather might talk to you too. It might even point out which of the people on your team aren't real humans. Then we could compare notes.

Or maybe, just maybe, it's something else entirely.

Huntera · July 2010

Well, I'm glad the tf2wiki guys got valve to actually make it the official wiki.

UEAKCrash · July 2010

Yeah that's cool.

But basically:

Hay guys, swear to god an update is coming. For reals.

No, seriously.

Detharin · July 2010

A part of me wants to believe that they know the engineer update is so awesome that if they do not give each and every other class something new as well then everyone will play engineers and no one will have any fun.

BlindPsychic · July 2010

So the engineer update and the polycount ones are the same thing I guess. See y'all july 12th

Kupi · July 2010

The Polycount entries leave me in despair for the fate of my dinky little meat cleaver. Even setting aside the ones that are too silly to fit the game's themes (there is such a thing), you pretty much have a year's worth of community updates there.

Secret Reveal: The Engineer is secretly Canadian

Engineer update on Canada day

undeinPirat · July 2010

heh enders that's funny

acting like canadians are people

Bethryn · July 2010

I am assuming they're waiting for the Polycount contest to end so that they can release a lot of different items at once with the Engineer update, thus preventing Engineer spam.

The reason I have come to this conclusion is for my own sanity's sake, and the safety of every member of the TF2 live team from the combination my overstuffed piggy bank, dusty telephone and extra-long list of capable assassins and psychopaths.

undeinPirat · July 2010

hopefully they release the "stop undeinpirat's soundlooping" update soon

considering this problem has been around for centuries

Any crazed gunmen on that list?

xzzy · July 2010

Wasn't the tf2wiki a bunch of pages where everyone said to never trust the data in it?

Is it suddenly good data because Valve absorbed it?
