TF2 Update: It is a good day to be giant man

[Icarus]

If you like Point-Click adventure games, definitely

 

[Sel]

Those guns are terrible :S

 

[lana]

Who cares, they come with a great game!

 

[fubarFX]

can you get the items via random drops?
it appears you can craft both pistols http://www.tf2items.com/crafting/blueprints.php
but I don't see the hat in there

 

[Leminnes]

Nah, you can't. You have to buy the game to get them. If you COULD get them with random drops, that would pretty much destroy their intention.

I rather like the hat. I could care less about the guns, although I don't mind them at all.

But I love the hat.

 

[owly-oop]

I was upset about this. For a minute. Then i realized that the weapons are only cosmetic so i do not oppose this at all. I think it's great

As long as this type of stuff stays cosmetic i will be happy

 

[evanonline]

It's always going to stay cosmetic, of course. Valve isn't filled with total jerks! These are just cool bonuses for people who were already going to be getting the games, I would think you'd be sort of dumb to buy it without being a Sam and Max fan just for a friggin' hat.

 

[Icarus]

BTW, Season 3's premiere is great!

It's twice as long as older episodes, the engine has been upgraded (Lighting, textures, everything looks great now!), and Max's superpowers are really fun.

Valve is becoming EA.

Valve is becoming EA.

Hello tf2 steam forums.

 

[PMAvers]

On a side note, I wish they'd just nuke the Steam forums from orbit.

And then hang up a sign on the ashes that says "This is why we can't have nice things."

 

[Terr]

Nothing, they're just reskins.

And that's a good thing. If only the Pain-Train / Dalokohs / Homewrecker were also just remodels...

 

[Randdalf]

And that's a good thing. If only the Pain-Train / Dalokohs / Homewrecker were also just remodels...

Why?

They haven't given you any grief have they? They've only added new gameplay haven't they?

 

[Icarus]

Just the Pain-Train

 

[Tinker]

Lugermorph is fantastic, Big Kill is meh (mostly due to the bad reloading animation), bunny hat looks rather stupid. That said, I love both Sam & Max and TF2, and it's a good deal for me!

 

[gamemaster1996]

and b) they're generally more fun than ours anyway

Why do valve keep saying stuff like this, their games are great aren't they?

 

[grazr]

Valve isn't filled with total jerks!.

Well they released hats in the first place didn't they? Look how much trouble they've been for the majority of the community.

Classes should start with all their weapons and the achievements would unlock hats instead. I can imagine starting the game without the same amount of options as other players to be annoying, and it then results in achievement farming. Not that unlocking hats that way wouldn't, but then you could have epic achievements like the medic and pyro ones which take time and class dedication. At least then hats would be more like "Hey i earned this" and class specific, rather than some dick with 20 hats and 100 hours of gameplay and someone else who's had the game for years and 1000+ hours with 1 hat for a class he never plays.

Achievements arn't really achievements when you perform them every other game.

 

[Ida]

I don't know what to say. The guns are okay, but I really really don't want to see tons of people running around wearing Max hats. It's not worth going all SPUF-angry over this, but I wish they'd stick to hats that fit the game.

 

[grazr]

Bill's hat was only the start Muffin.

Pre-order Ep3 now to get your Alyx head band.

 

[Ida]

At least Bill's hat is sort of theme neutral. And so is a headband.
