Crafting was rubbish.

I wasted loads of what I had, and now only just understand what I need to do to have a chance of the Claok and Dagger.

Boo!

Thanks

You can get the Cloak and Dagger for 11 achievements. If you play spy all the time, it is easy to do.

The Spy achievements are VERY easy to do so just do that then.

I'm working my way to craft a random hat. I'm ages away from it then, only have 2 reclaimed metals and 2 scrap metals. This could take a while longer. That means I've crafted a total of 24 items so far (28 including my medic class token).

So if I get 11 achievements as a Spy, then I will find the Cloak and Dagger?

I thought the rewards wern't achievement based? :s

Yeah they changed it back due to user complaints :p they re-added the milestones so you could collect the new items ;)

Ha ha, just found this video:

Ubering then running away made me laugh!

Annoying as hell, but I laughed.

I've done the act like a spy one once when I got bored. Peeked down a staircase and saw a team mate from a distance so I ran back up it. Heard him call me out as a spy and when he got close to the staircase I acted like I was going to go for a stairstab on him. Luckily the server I play on is not srsbsnes or anything so we both got a good laugh about it.

If Valve ever implement item trading, I'll swap you <img src="https://cdn.neowin.com/forum/uploads/style_emoticons/<#EMO_DIR#>/tongue.gif" style="vertical-align:middle" emoid=":p" border="0" alt="tongue.gif" /> I crafted two hats and got the Ushanka. Yeah, it's a cool hat, but I never play heavy.

You've got a deal, it's the only hat I've been trying to get.

Ha ha, just found this video:

Ha, sweet! I didn't know you visited Neowin. Would you be able to tell me the name of the hat? In the TF2 code it seems to just be called Propaganda Contest Winner Third Place or something. :\

    • After enabling it in about:config, customize, density, compact; the toolbar/address bar gets smaller vertically. I enabled Nova, I notice the tab bar/title bar is a bit larger vertically now? Everything always becomes a waste of space.
    • Microsoft's Copilot Cowork now generally available with usage-based billing by Pradeep Viswanathan Back in March, Microsoft first revealed Copilot Cowork, a new agentic AI experience in Microsoft 365 Copilot through which users can assign tasks to AI to complete in the background. After testing the service with a limited set of customers in Research Preview for a few weeks, Microsoft announced the general availability of Copilot Cowork to customers in the Frontier program on March 30. Today, Microsoft announced the general availability of Copilot Cowork worldwide for Microsoft 365 Copilot customers. The company also highlighted that Cowork became the fastest-growing feature in the history of its Frontier program. Unlike regular Copilot Chat, Copilot Cowork can run complex, long-running, multi-tool tasks from start to finish in the cloud by using organizational context through Work IQ. When compared to Claude Cowork, Microsoft claims that Copilot Cowork will be 30% to 40% cheaper on average with its Microsoft 365 connector. For now, Copilot Cowork runs on Anthropic models, including Opus 4.8 and Sonnet 4.6. However, Frontier customers can now use GPT-5.5. Microsoft also announced Cowork 1, a secure fine-tuned model coming in the next few weeks, which is designed to handle everyday Copilot tasks at a lower cost. To access Copilot Cowork, a Microsoft 365 Copilot user subscription is required. Usage is billed separately through Copilot Credits, based on model use, context retrieval, tool calls, and runtime. Pay-as-you-go pricing is set at $0.01 per Copilot Credit. To offer IT teams full control over usage costs, Microsoft provides spending limits, usage alerts, user-level controls, reporting, and prepaid usage plans for organizations. Usage-based billing begins today. However, Frontier customers who used Cowork between March 30 and June 16 will not be billed until July 1, 2026. The Microsoft 365 Copilot app now includes a toggle to enter the full Cowork experience. Microsoft is also adding partner plugins, with Enosix, Harvey, LSEG, Miro, monday.com, Moody’s, Morningstar, S&P Global Energy, and TeamsMaestro available now. Adobe, Atlassian, Box, Canva, Databricks, and others are coming soon.
