On another topic, this still isn't fixed.

no?
You do realize that video just said it's updated for GunMettle?

It was hilariously easy originally and can happen accidentally, now it's *slightly* harder, but it's definitely not fixed. You just have to keep throwing weapons until it falls through.

I suspect that this is caused from the fact that the payload reaching that point triggers the hole to open, causing the payload to fall and touch the barrels and cause exploshuns.

All they really need to do is make it so that only the payload make it blow up, but apparently they can't do that for some reasons due to the nature of Source engine, so instead they made it so that any slightest nudge to the barrels trigger the explosions.

Or something. Source is confusing.

Valve time is soon. I hate to agree with STAR_, but I have to say that it seems like none of the devs play TF2.

I'm unsure whether the TF2 devs are even aware of the concept of Steam.

Isn't that the place where they trade some of the hats?

I just realized that you don't need to launch TF2 to enter the Mann Co. store anymore.

When I said 'just realized', I meant the last time I cared about TF2, sorry. The link is no longer on the webpage.

So, thoughts on the TF2 weapon cases? Worth opening or not?

It's a moneygrabbing tactic at best, but some of them do look nice.

I really like powerhouse. It's everything good about 2fort and turbine combined on a gamemode that doesn't suck, and looks really pretty too.

E: in short, it's the ultimate pub map.

Knowing Belgium, everyone will vote for themselves out of mistrust for anyone else, and some kind of weird direct democracy coalition will need to be formed from 11 million or so individuals.

I wouldn't call it moneygrabbing, I'd call it employing their purely aesthetic items for microtransactions business model very well.

I like their F2P but pay to look good model wholeheartedly, but I worry about how much time was spent on it.

The skins are a feature already in CS:GO and AFAIK based on the procedural zombies from L4D2, so it was AFAIK basically texturing work this time around

And most hats are community made

Valve is spending most of their time on Source 2 and Dota 2's custom game tools right about now

TF2 is also getting competitive matchmaking in a few months

That's true, I have high hopes for Source 2. Though all we have are leaked files, I can stay hype-y.
