They better fix that bug quick. Last night I spent nearly three hours mainly as a pyro and got zilch. (Though I did get quite a lot of HLSTATSX points in Pipeline. :p) And also that bug... it's funny seeing a solder holding a sniper rifle at first, but try discovering an enemy spy that managed to sneak past defenses and starts sniping at people from a corner that is usually inaccessible by the enemy team.

On the blog, it mentions that "most players having around 20 items in their inventory after a couple of weeks of play. If you're someone who plays a lot of TF2, you're going to get items a lot faster than that. "

Do they take your total playtime, or your playtime over the past two weeks? :blink:

I think it's time I took a break from this game. The last update can be frustrating. I clocked in about 5 hours of game play and I only found two items: the Bonk! energy drink and a Backburner. And that's the longest I played a game in a single sitting. Ugh!

Just sit in an 'achievement_idle' server over night, valve always force you to do things like this, so you might as well this time as well.

Been doing that for the past 3 hours (on top of my previous 11.2 hours) and the only thing I have gotten since the update has been the Blutsauger (only 1)....they seriously need to fix the system, I somehow doubt its still working properly if anyone has to play 10-15 hours to get a single item (that breaks there 20 items in a few weeks of normal play theory, doesn't it?)

Haven't received a damn thing in almost 20 hours of play time. Really really really don't understand how they thought this was a good idea, hell if they wanted to change the system then go for a kills = XP system or something that gives me some sort of target / progression. This system is beyond stupid. One of the few Valve decisions I do not approve of or support.

Playing 24hours a day it's "a find" per 16 hours. Playing 5 hours a day (which is still lots) it's a find per 3.5 hours.

Not sure I understand what your trying to say.....Valve has stated that going off the average gameplay time among all TF2 players, it should take a few weeks to get ALL 20 items. Lets say the average player plays 3-4 hours a day, and "a few weeks" = 3 weeks. That means it should take ~73.5 hours of gameplay to find all the weapons.

That is ~3.7 hours of gameplay to find an item.

I have played ~15 hours and have found 1 item.....thats roughly 4 times the amount of time I should have to play to find an item.

Now, clearly the system is broken because I have played for 15 hours and gotten 1 item when I should, based off how Valve wants the system to work, have 4 or more items by now.

Simply put they need to fix the system.

    • Microsoft brings Planner Agent to all Microsoft 365 Copilot users

      By Ivan Jenic · Posted

      Microsoft brings Planner Agent to all Microsoft 365 Copilot users by Ivan Jenic Image: Microsoft Microsoft has announced that Planner Agent in Microsoft 365 Copilot is now generally available to all users with a Microsoft 365 Copilot license. Planner Agent is the latest addition in the string of AI features that Microsoft is implementing across virtually all of its products. The agent lets you manage tasks through natural language prompts directly inside Microsoft 365 Copilot. You can create and update tasks, check priorities, and get insights about current entries without leaving the chat interface. The general availability release comes with a handful of new additions on top of what was available during the initial rollout. A new plan picker lets you search and filter your plans by name, then update task names, statuses, due dates, or priorities through the agent. There's also a goals bucket now, which lets you group tasks under specific goals. This builds on the Goals view, a feature that was introduced as part of the broader Planner refresh that rolled out earlier. Image: Microsoft | Planner Agent in Microsoft 365 Copilot All AI-generated plans and tasks are created in draft mode by default, so you can review and approve changes before anything goes through. This is actually a thoughtful safety feature, because trusting AI to handle all your tasks without a human in the loop is usually a recipe for disaster. Having tasks initially saved as drafts is the best possible middle ground. Microsoft also says that not all tasks are executed equally. Simple tasks get processed quickly, while more complex ones, like building a plan from a Word, Excel, or PowerPoint file, are handed to a more capable model. Microsoft says this approach delivers the best performance, but it could also help with usage management, as you won't have to waste tokens on performing simple tasks. Planner Agent is available now across Teams, Loop, SharePoint, and other Microsoft 365 apps for anyone on a Microsoft 365 Copilot subscription.

      Trillion dollar Microsoft has to reduce spending by hurting more people. Good job Microsoft. Good Job Asha.
    • Major Xbox layoffs may claim South of Midnight developer Compulsion entirely

      By Geezy · Posted

      That's a shame. The big Xbox reset when Phil and Sarah left and then Asha came on and brought a new team of executives, and all the layoffs last year and saying that the ABK merger wouldn't result in redundancies I am surprised they are calling for yet another reset and yet more layoffs.
