Ah well, I get 1.5 reclaimed worth of scrappable weapons a week, so I should have enough for my next Polycount hat in a month. Then I shall only be 78% poor and Irish!

154meg update with no notes?

 

[sixghost]

Is Big Earner/DR a good knife-watch combo for a spy? I've been trying it out the past couple days and it seems really fun so far. I find using manual disguises too much fun to use YER.

The basic idea is to use a disguise+DR to get in behind, then use the cloak pickups from the backstab victim's weapon and the +35 cloak bonus on kill from the Big Earner to immediately DR again to escape if I'm in a crowd.

 

[JackEtc]

So what was that update about.

Deus Ex Items

So happy I went with pre-purchasing on steam rather than from an online retailer where I'd save £2.

 

[BY2K]

Holy fucking crap.

Those items are amazing...

I MUST HAVE THEM! WILL TRADE HATS IF I MUST!

 

[barnone]

I could use that green man gaming key right about now.

 

[Salsa]

HEY GUYS LETS SHOW THE PRE-ORDER ITEMS 4 DAYS BEFORE RELEASE SO THOSE WHO PRE-ORDERED ELSEWHERE CAN GO FUCK THEMSELVES


;___________;

I could use that green man gaming key right about now.

im guessing you need to have the game pre-ordered on steam, not activate the key.

Seriously, I waited until this week to take the GMG offer just to see if they were going to add stuff. I feel like that simpsons gif of Ross Perot punching his hat right now lol.

 

[Zomba13]

XD Didn't notice some of the names.
Deus Specs

Brilliant.

 

[(._.)]

I could use that green man gaming key right about now.

same. i dont think we can get them sine we didn't preorder via steam.

 

[JackEtc]

FUCK I HAVE NO MONEY

;_- fuck you green man gaming =(

 

[Rickenslacker]

Are they only for preorders? I was hoping they'd give them to everyone who owns the game on day 1. I guess that's one way to place incentive on Steam sales.

 

[JackEtc]

MUST

HAVE

DIAMONDBACK

 

[jediyoshi]

Oh my lord.

Purity fist and Short Circuit.

So delicious.

 

[Zerokku]

HELL YES. Was waiting to preorder since Gamestop screwed me over by sending my severance package paperwork late. Guess that worked out. Just bought. Now to jump on the server and taunt you all with them

 

[CornBurrito]

I came for about a second, but then I realized I have no metal or weapons to trade/craft the new items.

Wait... the new sniper rifle fires tracer rounds but how is that a negative?

Doesn't the regular sniper rifle give off a big red dot? And if you are killed by the sniper you get to see his location which you can then broadcast to your entire team.

Oh jesus that Spy pistol. If only I could actually aim with my pistol (I never can seem to get a shot to connect even with my crosshairs on the enemy)...

The Short Circuit sounds interesting. Can't wait to see it in action.

 

[Oreoleo]

 

[DarkKyo]

Holy shit.

That is all I have to say.

 

[Sianos]

Hey, TF2 is updating, probably just more hats...

MOTHER OF GOD NEW ENGIE WEAPONS

 

[CornBurrito]

Hmm the 24th is the anniversary of TF right? Any chance for MEET THE PYRO?

 

[JackEtc]

These can't possibly ALL be preorder weapons...can they be?

 

[commissar]

So sure there was the engineer's mechanical hand and the mystery wrangler shield.

And the pulp sci fi weapons via Grordborts.

But this takes the cake.

It isn't even plausibly a precursor to dx tech, it just is some thirty years from now shit. GJ Eidos you cunts.

Spoiler

I never asked for this

Edit: also I realise TF2 jumped the shark ages ago but I expected better of both companies.

 

[DarkKyo]

Hhnnnggggggg so tempting.......

The TF2 characters are all going to be abominations against nature by the time they stop adding items. Multiple misc items eventually with bionic limbs, eyes, faces?! wtf is going on can not compute

 

[Taco_Human]

Hooray new engineer weapons. I'm just sad we can't craft them until after the game is released.

 

[Hylian7]

I haven't preordered Deus Ex HR yet, maybe I should soon.......

 

[Dog Problems]

Is the Mask of the Shaman not going to be tradable?

 

[Forkball]

Hey guys I've been busy all day, is there anything new in Team Fortr-

 

[CornBurrito]

I haven't preordered Deus Ex HR yet, maybe I should soon.......

Pfft you aren't doing Steam the right way (assuming you are buying this on Steam).

True Steam Gamers (tm) wait until a sale.

The only ones that seem like they're "too much" are the nanobaclava and the purity fist.

Spoiler

That isn't going to stop me from wearing both though >.>

The Quake-con items weren't tradeable until like 2 days after Quake-Con ended so I'm sure we'll see something similar. Seems Valve has added a Delay of sorts.

 

[yeoz]

Short circuit damages projectiles?
(Goddamnit, I preordered it from green man gaming too)

 

[Sianos]

Those new Engies weapons look neat, too.

A gun that destroys projectiles and a gun that rewards accurate shotgun shots with more metal. Can't wait to use them, glad I should have 2~ reclaimed by the end of the week.

Also, eight new unusual effects. Collect them all!

 

[DarkKyo]

Pfft you aren't doing Steam the right way (assuming you are buying this on Steam).

True Steam Gamers (tm) wait until a sale.

True TF2ers waste their money on games to get genuine versions of 8 items right away O_O

Edit: 8 new unusual effects?!

 

[Uriah]

They added the original crafting recipe also.

 

[mojiimbo]

Is it really that big of a deal? I'm sure if you go into the Deux Ex thread and offer $10 for the items you'll find someone that'll be happy to oblige and it'll still end up cheaper than the Steam version.

 

[Zerokku]

Edit: 8 new unusual effects?!

Wait what?!?

 

[Uriah]

Bah, update the server already!

 

[vehn]

These items are craftable RIGHT NOW. Quit whining over pre-orders

 

[Thoraxes]

Must not buy and wait for a sale.
Must not buy and wait for a sale.
Must not buy and wait for a sale.

Saying this over and over again is not controlling my impulses enough. Someone help me?

 

[Wendel Clark]

Hooray new engineer weapons. I'm just sad we can't craft them until after the game is released.

not true

 

[Sianos]

Well, off to go itemtest. Will have impressions soon. Too bad you can't itemtest on the compresion blast map, I want to test the projectile damaging.

 

[DarkKyo]

Oh lawd

 

[Won]

lol @ wearing Short Circuit and Gunslinger at the same time. Didn't think that through Valve, heh?

 

[Acerac]

Damn, shouldn't have updated so quickly.

How long does it usually take the GAF server to get the current update?

 

[Hylian7]

Pfft you aren't doing Steam the right way (assuming you are buying this on Steam).

True Steam Gamers (tm) wait until a sale.

Buuuuuuut weapooooons.........

Spoiler

I'll probably wait for a sale, there's no way I'll play it now with the other 100+ games I'm interested in playing right now.

 

[Thoraxes]

The short circuit looks amazing for engies BTW.
Will definitely help with demo ubers.
