Nothing new here folks Move along. Dota 2 will be f2p and have cosmetics, keys, crates, taunts, backpack expanders, tags, and more.

And this will scare off the hardcore players and thus Dota 2 will be ignored for regular dota.

Good, Dota is filled with elitist pricks as is.

Been getting that while browsing the Workshop, doubt it's anything of note, happens pretty frequently to be honest.

[mphayes97]

Valve hasn't really even looked at WETA's Medic and Scout packs yet...

[Thrustmaster]

Heeey, teamfortress.com is back!

[J-RcZ]

For how long have the Scout/Medic Dr. Grordbort's been lying in workshop?

just went through the top rated of all time

took me to page 33 to find something that was purely cosmetic.

this should really tell Valve something.

Okay, I was wrong, I must have still had "Weapons" checked from Ned's link because there are cosmetics high up there

[Scarabix]

I think we have to wait for some clues.

A clue we know we have to look forward to, is an update on grocket material.

I don't know when we will get these scout and medic weapons, but so far all grodbort packs were teased with new grockets.

There is one last map left after viaduct and badwater, and it's 2fort.

That means 2fort is where we will have to expect, not only the new grocket to be, but also the scout/medic comic to take place.

This will also be the first time we'll get to see the medic as the protagonist in a comic.

You can't tell what's wrong. Can you?
The Clan Pride and the Photo Badge are broken since 7 months now. "It will be fixed soon", Laro said

This is the second Loch-n-Load.

[ned_ballad]

they also need to implement the unused badge, which has been in the game (completely and totally useable) since the Manniversary. They just have to add it as an item, and it's in, no need to ship any models.

You're right, I don't see what's wrong here at all.

In-game the badges show the words Team Fortress 2, rather than the intended textured pattern.

[Kapellmeister]

If there's something they should fix, it's allowing us to use any goddamn color we want.

[01271]

Well, guess that's that.

Don't rate rainbows, I'm saying that they ended up not doing anything and just wanted attention.

[ned_ballad]

or they're updating because of the huge server toll a major TF2 update always brings. Usually they crash the entire Steam network.

[SLBros.]

I doubt the Replay Update will crash anything, except the game

[ned_ballad]

if it's over 500mb, Steam will crash, guaranteed.

There's a good reason updates aren't allowed to be over 500mb anymore.

It's funny how they "prepare" the severs for major updates, yet the servers crash anyway.

Last few times I got a SMNC update. they were over a gig each

Edit:

And it killed my internet

I think he meant tf2 updates, there aren't as many people downloading SMNC nor are there many reasons to jump into the game right after an update IIRC so it's not that big of a deal not to download it as soon as it comes out.
tf2 has:
-new weapons
-craft numbers (sometimes)
-trading opportunities
at every major update.
If you're in right when the update hits then you have an advantage over everyone else.

New weapons was only the case in 2 of 6 of the major updates last year. Which is kind of depressing.

I can see the rainbows in the distance.

They're so damn bright. It hurts to watch them slowly fade in a few hours.

Misc...

"not a hat or a map"

The surprise is a misc!

[BanthaFodder]

I could swear that, a few updates ago, I saw people talking about how Valve got rid of craft numbers.
Is this true, or....?

Also, I don't think we're getting anything on the level of Meet the Pyro anytime soon. Near the end of May at the earliest, I'd think.

We might get some Moderate Updates in the meantime (Saxxys 2012, SMNC, etc.), but the HUGE ASS PYRO one is still a ways off.

We've been waiting for a moderate update for 4 months now.

Also, if there ever is going to be a SMNC promo update, it'd probably be with the introduction of Trading to SMNC. If not then they'd probably just (sadly) stick with the TF2 Throwback gear
