I think people are kind of overreacting about the item drop thing. I've been playing to get the new items, but even though I've picked up a couple duplicates, I've found I'm generally just enjoying the game itself. If you go on just enjoying the game, you'll have the items eventually. It's sad people are so angry after such an awesome update, saying Valve ruined the game or something.
Plus, I've seen that video clip but with Hitler hating something else. Come on, man.
Oh, I've read the forums. They're filled with "Epic fail!" and "Die, Valve!"
Meanwhile, those new maps are pretty sweet, aren't they?
But they're arena....
You KNOW that half the maps they put out weren't arena maps.
Geez, first the new unlockable items are all stupid, then you're angry because you can't have all these supposedly stupid items right away. Seriously, just go enjoy the game.
