switch where you download it from.

 

[Chinner]

anyway guys, i got the update and its cool and stuff i guess, gonna go to sleep and play it tomorrow maybe i dunno

 

[Forkball]

A bit disappointed there's not more weapons/community stuff. There were a ton of Halloween submissions in both categories but it seems like Valve just went with their own stuff.

 

[Wendel Clark]

Cauldron isn't tradable

Think you get the seal mask and one random costume piece.

YOU SONOFABITCH

 

[Sgt.Pepper]

360 MB, 20 kb/sec. What the fuck.

Shut down Steam people, so I can download my update.

 

[SteveWinwood]

All costumes confirmed for halloween/full moon only

 

[The Technomancer]

Hey at least some of you are getting the update.

 

[ArtistDude88]

Great. So we have to farm EACH PIECE OF THE HALLOWEEN SETS?!

FFFUUUUUUUUUUUUUU---

 

[enzo_gt]

Srsly.

Halloween/Full Moon only makes me

 

[divisionbyzorro]

What about the community/storebought items? Are they full-moon only?

Also - 79%!

 

[Zomba13]

3 times more work than getting the masks -.-

And I've still not got all the masks =/

 

[Javaman]

got a seal mask and wings for my engineer. Ukraine server seemed to work well.

 

[Proven]

It makes sense for them to not put the community items in. If you can only purchase and craft them with materials from halloween, then the makers of those items won't get as much money for their work as everyone else has.

 

[The Omega Man]

All costumes confirmed for halloween/full moon only

even if you buy them on the store? why someone would buy something he can only use like 7 days a year? wtf!!!

 

[Zomba13]

Need to rename the Seal mask 'The Seal of Approval' or something.

 

[SteveWinwood]

even if you buy them on the store? why someone would by something he can only use like 7 days a year? wtf!!!

Try like... 12.

Damn you, this made me giggle like a schoolgirl.

 

[Alienups]

Update took like less than a minute to download over here

now off to find the new map

 

[Acerac]

Srsly.

Wow... would it really break immersion at this point if they just let us use them year round? >_<

 

[enzo_gt]

DOWNLOADING NOW

WE IN THERE.

WAIT NO JUST HL2M AND GARRYS MOD WTF FUCK YOU VALVE

EDIT: NO TF2 NOW AS WELL

WE BACK IN THERE

 

[Dreams-Visions]

even if you buy them on the store? why someone would buy something he can only use like 7 days a year? wtf!!!

Yep. There are only 2 items that aren't Halloween specific.

 

[OMG Aero]

Is the seal mask usable in the rebuild headgear recipe?
I might finally be able to get rid of my spare paper hat.

 

[Sanic]

Wow... would it really break immersion at this point if they just let us use them year round? >_<

Even though we have ridiculous hats, there is a line, and valve cannot cross it.

 

[Sgt.Pepper]

Fuck you Valve. You gave those wings for the Pyro, and you want me to use them just once a year?!

Steam.

Why.

 

[divisionbyzorro]

What's the deal with all of the new skulls?

And the Spy knife? Is that event-only as well? Wha?

 

[AcciDante]

I got the seal mask and the silver bullets for sniper! Too bad they're just for Halloween

 

[SteveWinwood]

Try to get numbered hat...


Gets a fez.


Fuck.

Of course not. Valve has now learned from their mistakes.

[Dr. Pangloss]

This update didn't kill TF2 for you Javaman?

 

[Acerac]

Laser Beams = ok
Einstein Hair = Halloween only!

Meh.

 

[Forkball]

Is the Pyro skull and ghost head only for Halloween? If so that's BS. At least give us Halloween reskins or something that we can use all year round.

IT'S UPDATING FOR ME FINALLY.

 

[Cloudius12]

8 more minutes and I'll jump in the FUN!

 

[Proven]

I got... Heavy boots. Who here want trade!?

 

[The Technomancer]

Okay, I don't get it, I'm not even stalled at 0% in orange, TF2 just doesn't seem to be doing anything...at all

EDIT: Shit, there it is

 

[Nabs]

shouts to romania for always having my back.

edit: screw you hl2.exe

 

[PaleFolklore]

Switch to Sweden! Getting 700 kb/s

 

[Proven]

Oh yeah, I used Romania too. Random euro countries people! They're good for something!

 

[AcciDante]

Sweden is best region!

Y server no update! I must take a spot!

 

[Sianos]

I thought "thirty new gift drop hats" was an extreme hyperbole.

I thought wrong. You will be missed, Java!

However, I guess everyone getting one for free will make farming less likely and at least they look nice this time around. Pyro and Demo sets are especially neat, hope I get some of those when I open my gifts. Too bad the Scout set isn't all that great, oh well. If I get anything for a class I never play I can always cash it out for ref while the value is high.

Happy to see we'll be playing 24/7 KOTH, and the 3:00 minimum timer means gift drops should happen more. Comic was pretty funny too, bringing back "the wizard" was a nice twist.
