Anyone with an idea of what happened here ...

Last night I was in a server and the screen froze for a few seconds, went black and then came back up and it was like this ...

Thought it was my video card crapping out because I've spilled water on the keyboard before (it's a laptop) but all my other games seem to work fine .. its just with TF2. :blink:

Yeah that would be nice. I think Valve are hesitant to make another TC map though because of the bad rep that Hydra gets. I've never seen a map clear a server out quite like Hydra can sometimes. Would be great to see another Attack/Defend or TC map though.

Man, I liked playing Hydro back in the day. Although, I will admit that I haven't played a single game in Hydro since coming back to the game a few weeks ago.

Why are people on trade servers retarded? I wanted the monday night combat set, but don't really want the game since I already have too many games that I don't have time to play. So I'm in a trade server, offering 3-4 keys for the set. Someone opens up the trade window and puts up the MNC set asking for Bills hat. I say I don't have Bills hat, I only have keys and refined. He says ok, 8 keys then... I keep trying to tell him MNC is not worth 8 keys and he keeps insisting it is. So I put up 8 keys, just to mess with him, and tell him to please explain to me how a free bonus for a game that costs $15 that is still available, is worth $20 worth of keys. Yeah, he didn't reply :rolleyes:

Even more promo items, and the art style can now be classed as having officially left the building, and travelled to another continent. This is for preordering Rift.

Axe is called 'Sharpened Volcano Fragment,' for the Pyro, same stats as Axtinguisher.

Stick is called 'Sun-on-a-stick,' for the Scout, same stats as the Boston Basher.

That headgear is for your character in Rift, available via an achievement in TF2 apparently.

Those items completely destroy any remnants of the TF2 art style that TF2 used to have.... :/

I fail to see how the addition of these items ruins the artstyle further, they're a damn sight less intrusive than Unusuals or bright white bunny ears.

Let's not be reactionary here people; consider that we know that Valve are working on a new content release, and we have a new precendent in the form of promo items with unique stats.

Are they really unique, or are they a hint at what is to come? That's what interests me the most.

Now the items are in game. The stats got changed.

Axe: Sets people on fire, -20% damage

Stick: +35% damage, -45% damage vs non burning players.

Also they will be craftable after the promo.

Sounds like there were good bug fixes too.

Gay, looks like I will only be able to craft the items after the promo cause I don't have windows to buy rift

Are you serious? you want to spend $50 for promo items just to have them a month before other people? :blink: Can't you just buy it from a web browser, if you really wanted to? Why do you need windows?
