official Team Fortress 2

I played for about 3-4 hours today, and all I found was a Natascha.

I unlocked that 2 weeks ago via achievements -_-

[Denis W. Veteran]

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.

I got 2 weapons that I already had. Thanks Valve!

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:

[ViZioN]

Hopefully get a few more of the unlocks today that I don't have but we'll see. Wouldn't mind getting one of the hats :D

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!

[ViZioN]

Yeah I played quite a bit yesterday and the only thing of value that I unlocked was the Huntsman.

[ViperAFK]

I have 6 sandmans and NONE OF THE NEW WEAPONS. I'm so ****ed, this is ridiculous hype people up about the new stuff and don't ****ing let them use it.

I am done with tf2, this crap is ridiculous and unacceptable.

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.

This is beyond retarded.

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?)

Just played for about 3 hours and didn't unlock a thing :( Bah!

Did see one person with the medic hat on though, was quite cool :p

[Aero_Rising]

Got the ambassador jarate and the dead ringer so far. Want the huntsman :(

[ViZioN]

I wouldn't mind getting the Ambassador but I guess I've just got to wait like everyone else!

[shakey]

Well, after spending the night in a Idle map server, i have now received a good amount of unlocks. I have the Huntsman, 2 ambas, cloak n dagger, and demoman mask. I got a few other weps I alread had as well. Now for just a few more. I left it on the same server while at work, so when I get home I will hopefull have them all lol.

[jelli]

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.

[Nagisan]

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.

Yeah my maths was stupid and apparently theirs is too :p. It's definately broken.

[mounty]

Haven't had any random whatevers drop, however from what I've seen so far I quite like the new maps. Though I do feel my previous complaints about the direction of TF2 have been vindicated :p

[ViZioN]

Yeah I'm quite enjoying pipeline and hoodoo also (Y)

[sundayx Veteran]

I found 3 items, those which I already have, in the last 6 hours. Just tell me when I find those that I don't have please.

[Aero_Rising]

I'm gonna go play again for a while probably try the new maps if you see anyone with the name Aero_Rising that's me.

[Chrysaor]

Got 10 hours play time (active and idle) since the update, no item drops for me either new or old. :rolleyes:

[SQ1]

It works if you create a server and leave it running in background? normal servers kick spectators that stay too long...
