Because items marked non-tradeable can normally be traded via use of the gift-wrap tool item.

I think they'll stop selling keys for the cases after the event, so at that point they'll be garbage for a few years until they become collector's items.

And that's what sucks about event things. AFAIK, the bread box is the only recent event crate that doesn't become useless after a certain amount of time passes :c

EDIT: Played the new update. My experience before and after.

Before:

Yaaaay tf2 is so fun slice slic stab pew pew

After:

WHY DO I RUBBERBAND HALF THE TIME.

Seriously. What the hell, why is it so laggy all of a sudden. Is it the skins? Is it the new shit they added? Hope Valve puts out a fix for it within a month.

Yeah the new update is ridiculously laggy, even on powerful computers.
It doesn't disturb my finely-honed pubstomping skills, though :P

i have had zero problem with lag

it may be a problem with a specific range of hardware independent of power that I don't have though

The lag is odd. Some servers I have terribad ping for no reason, others it's my frames, and then others...I get 0 lag. I have no idea.

For the Gun Mettle update, I'm gonna hold on to my items (sold the first two before I thought of this) because since it's finite, the supply will dry up and the price will almost certainly go up.

Probably. :P

NOOOOOOOO

the supply tends to be lower early on and the price higher

check out the price for the cases

Well, this did bring me back to TF2. Doing the contracts is pretty fun (or most likely playing the game is. It's been a while) and after doing 4 of them, I've already got 60% of the price of the thing back. :D And a fancy-looking medigun.

But if the CS:GO crate crazes are anything to go by, the price of the cases will keep dropping.

The contracts are suuuuper easy. None of them have taken me over an hour so far. (WITH full bonus!)

I stopped playing TF2 in December of last year, and I haven't been interested since. Should I get back into it?

Eh. If your computer runs it well and you can find a good server (or you like pubstomping valve servers) and you have the free time for it and you're aware that your skills have probably rusted since you last played but you're willing to practice anyway, I don't see why not.

I have, like, none of those things.

Turns out you can seriously not notice how deep into this shit you went until you get out.

Valve servers are the only good servers left anyway, unless you like the points bullshit + rtd + p2w + advertisements when you join.
