 Valve, just grant us a Nohat mode. No purely cosmetic items are used, reskins are replaced by their original item, the usual stuff.

 And the models in this game play kinda funky when they fill most of your screen. I remember once time as a sniper i was looking down an alley when a soldier walked in front of me and my scope saw through his launcher. Game lagged for five seconds from that.

Okay, so I have a scripting question if anybody can help me with it.
I want my sniper rifle to be invisible, but my jarate/smg to be visible, as well as my kukiri. I use the scroll wheel for weapon changes, with 'q' always bound to melee.
How can I make just this one weapon be invisible? I know how to make every weapon disappear, but making just one do that is a challenge.

Actually... it only removes hats, and I've never tested it, but in theory this is mostly what you want.

The only immediate issue I can see is that 'default' hats (like the Soldier's helmet) won't be restored, so you'll see lots of Soldiers (and probably Snipers) running around bald.

Apparently a huge 1-year-Mannconomy-aniversary update has been pushed live before time, but folks managed to catch a glimpse of it and told us about the glory that is the big pile of content that is coming our way - http://www.reddit.com/r/tf2/comments/ks66x/huge_tf2_schema_update/

I bet the scout's "backwards cap" is a scumbag steve hat.

Edit, I might as well ask here too, anyone interested in selling Skyrim for some stuff from my backpack? I have an unusual and a Pocket Medic!

I just realized Backwards Cap is a possible pun on the Back-Cap maneuver. Mind = Blown. Also, aren't we overdue for this update now?

I started it yesterday or the day before and it gave me a frying pan and ellis' cap. I thought those were only for people who had pre-ordered L4D2 or something.

Edit: Correction, got the two hats mixed up, since they're both L4D [person]'s hats that I don't care about.

I'll give you an ellis' AND a scrap for that bill's. That's a hat, AND a scrap for just a hat! PM me if you are interested!

I don't really care about either one and haven't really played TF2 much at all in a good while.

It looks like the tomislav is getting nerfed, and the flamethrower buffed (but the unlocks stay about the same). Currently they are in the beta (along with a shortstop nerf, reserve shooter for pyro and widowmaker buff), and hopefully they will soon be in the main game. They are also introducing 2 miscs at once and loadout presets. Looks like there could be a good update coming up.

reserve shooter for pyro and widowmaker buff

Sounds awesome. Finally, an alternative shotgun for the pyro. I know that the regular shotgun is good, but the detonator's long-range capabilities always seem better suited to my play-style. Having a Degreaser as your primary can only increase the butthurt.

Also, the widowmaker totally needed the buff. At least in my opinion. (Mind you I have actually used the weapon...)

Reserve Shooter for Pyro plus Degreaser? As if you really needed FASTER weapon switch.

Of course, I'm definitely still going to try it out.
