Of course, if you want this achievement...



Here's your scopeless sniper rifle. There's the enemy. Now charge forward and shoot them in the face! (Now imagine if you had a bayonet...)

[Mr.Person]

I have never been so disappointed at a lot of money raised for a great charity. $300,000 dollars in a few weeks because people wanted a hat? Don't get me wrong, I'm happy it's for a charity, I'm just saying hat mania is getting a little silly.

Let me put it this way. Before Valve announced the hats for charity thing, I made a joke that Valve would sell charity hats. And then like two days later they start selling charity hats.

[Soulwynd]

And whatchu whining about?

People donated and yet got something back.

[Jackrabbit]

Yeah, I'd do it and I don't care about hats, I just didn't realize it was happening. If it's for charity, and they're offering something small in return for a donation, what's not to like?

[Old-Man-Gator]

Dovetailing a bit toward the thread about Sims:Medieval and how it was talking about achievement driven games.

I think you should get an achievement for beating up two zatoichi dorks with a shovel. At the same time.

[Jackrabbit]

Dorks? That thing is boss. The health regen means you can plow through half a dozen people in moments in Medieval mode.

But yeah, when I finally get the freaking Eyelander I'll be using that in normal modes.

[Mephisto]

Or burning the same spy wearing the same disguise sneaking in through the same area five times in the same life. Seriously, the guy would always come up through the watery area of 2Fort dressed as a demoman. I don't know that I saw him get a single kill that whole time.

RE: previous post:
I think "dork" in this instance means "one who cannot use the zatoichi properly"

[Jackrabbit]

Yeah, if two Zatochi wielders manage to get killed by one dude with a shovel I'd say they're dorks.

[The Scout]

Fists of Steel now take 100% damage from flamethrowers too. That didn't stop me from killing about 5 pyros in a row with it.

hmmm.. a 3.7mb patch just came out and the patch notes reads

Team Fortress 2

Something is afoot.

Hrrrm... the SPUF certainly thinks something is up. Of course, the start of the rumours is on a different forum - it's not like I'd expect the SPUF to come up with a theory that was simultaneously coherent and plausible on their own - but it certainly sounds... interesting.

There's also the rumour of Portal 2 pre-order content being added. And there's the potato hat, which was supposed to be awarded today - but if this was the update adding the potato hat, wouldn't Valve have just said so?

[Metalax]

Indeed. Of course SPUF can occasionally manage to achieve a correct idea via the 100 monkeys approach.

edit: and apparently a number of people are reporting that promotional items have disappeared from their accounts.

[MagmaDeath]

It is an update adding the potato hat.
Which is horribly textured, and generic.

[Jackrabbit]

A dry commentary on the quality of games flooding the indie market, perhaps?

Nah. Although I wouldn't put that past Valve, not by a long shot.

[Duke 2.0]

 Gabe says that while this isn't their next update, said update is just a few days away.

 And by update he means the team came up with more hats.
