Hold on to your hat!
The hunters lament!

Make sure you go to the actual url so you can buy a shirt or vote on the first unlockable.

Considering they were 6 and 1/2 hours late, I'm not surprised by the content. New shirt? Poll? Awesome ad with hilarious jokes (HOT DOG! 100% GUARANTEED TO BE MADE IN PORTUGAL!)? All we need for a successful update. And if you guys see the Mail Coupon, look at the line: I am a coward who wouldn't know a great deal if it knocked me backwards into a forest. That might suggest Alpine map coming up tomorrow!

Huzzah! Hilarious advertisement. I didn't care much for the Scout update but things are looking up. I voted for the shotty, by the way.

WTF? why are they releasing weapons at different times? are achievements not going to unlock weapons anymore?

No, we are voting for which weapon will need the least amount of achivements to unlock it.

...

...What? :confused:

From how I read it, it sounds like the vote's to determine which milestone unlocks each.

"(We will use the results of this poll to determine the order in which the new Scout items are made available to all TF2 players!) "

This makes it sound like they are releasing them to everyone (unlocking). I guess I just misinterpreted it.

Man, that would be awesome. I would fully support an equal-across-the-board unlocking of new weapons, NOT tied to frivolous achievements. Such a thought is far too good to be true, though.

I also read it as, "unlock the weapons for everyone" as opposed to "deciding the unlock order."

Sounds like they are experimenting. Whether they are experimenting with sales figures or player enjoyment I'm not sure.

I think one goal of the achievements is to make players play them more...

like without achievements, I would have never known how awesome I could play medic or pyro

Crap releasing slowly will cause a way more drawn out scout-class flood.

The 2 shoot round looks kinda gay, it build on TF2 maker ideas of the scout (voiced in the commentary) But seriously 2 shots slow reload, vote that so the we can play as engie and pwn the n00bs class flooding.

PS polls are valve was of market research, my they notice the sandman sucks big dick.
