I happened to play on a server tonight with Larolaro of Polycount fame, who, when I joined the server, had spent ?90 ($145US) on gifts for everyone on the server, and then bought another pile o' gifts for everyone again, making it a grand total of ?105 (nearly $170). I asked him why he was doing this, to have him reply "I want to because you bought my stuff".

The TF2 community is a shining example of a great online community :)

Hi, I am a TF2 newbie. Just started playing. and honestly I am pretty clueless as to how to acquire new Items, how to craft new things other buying them and what are blueprints.

Some help please along with some tips. :)

Blueprints are here:

http://www.tf2items.com/crafting/blueprints.php

You can always check TF2 wiki for moer info:

http://wiki.teamfortress.com/wiki/Main_Page

New items can only be acquired through crafting, trading or random drop.

Or you can get some items via completing achievement milestones. Just complete a set number of achievements for a class and you get one of the items for it.

Example: Complete 5 Engineer achievements and get the Frontier Justice.

lameee

The basic jist is when you're playing, if you do well, the character will throw down that item as a bet alongside the chips, you beat them, you earn the item. This is a 'bonus round' if you like.

Wow, just decided to play TF2 again tonight, launch it, go through the options and notice a bunch of new settings (such as raw mouse input, which I am now using) that I had never seen before, try to get on my favorite server and apparently my fav server hasn't updated yet. >.<

Yeah the raw mouse input is very new, was released in the last day or so. Haven't had a chance to give it a go though but will try it tomorrow and see if I notice any differences.

A bunch of my favourite servers weren't updated either. In the end I gave up for the night :p

So it seems like the "Poker Night" items can be crafted. I have seen the "Iron Curtain" minigun (its the same as the stock minigun) and the game is not out yet. It could just be the minigun and you have to earn the other items from "Poker Night".

Telltale?s Poker Night at the Inventory, a poker game starring Team Fortress 2?s Heavy and Penny Arcade?s Tycho, among others, is set to launch on Monday. The game gives players the opportunity to win a series of exclusive items for TF2, and there?s a poker hat for the Heavy going as a preorder bonus. The game will be $5 at launch, but can be pre-ordered now for $4.50 on Steam. Head here for an overview of the items on offer, and here for the trailer.

Yep, a Heavy Token + Primary Token + Scrap gets you a 50% chance to get the new minigun.

On November 19th, three days before Poker Night's release, there was a 50/50 chance of crafting the Iron Curtain by using a Heavy class token, a primary weapon slot token, and a scrap. As of November 20th, this has been patched, and all Iron Curtains crafted this way have been made untradeable.

    • 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.
