I'm really liking the new combinations I'm getting with the new items.

That doesnt make you better, that just makes you dumb.

Drop it already.

I'm really hoping we see more maps for Special Delivery before it's all said and done, official AND community. Valve looks like they at least tried to keep some neutral Administrator responses in there for non-Monkey and non-Rocket themed maps.

Anyone else love how sarcastic the Administrator is in Doomsday?
She always sounds like she doesn't care about anything, and she's just saying it because it's customary to say some words of remorse when a monkeynaught explodes.

My personal favorite is "Oh. Gentlemen, this never happened."

[ned_ballad]

every time she says Poopy Joe I can just imagine a smirk on Ellen's face like "What in the world did these Valve guys come up with now"

...Is it just me, or does she say "Hurray! The enemy is on the lift!"

I don't think the announcer cares who fuels the rocket, as long as someone does shes happy seeing as the main focus is getting poopy joe into space.

Doesnt the rocket just veer off and land in whoever's spawn and blow it up?

or was I drunk when that happened I don't remember

I just unboxed this: http://cloud-2.steampowered.com/ugc/...7AEC2DEE4B6AF/

Though, I have a feeling they aren't all that rare since I saw at least two others with a "Strange" Rainblower as well?

I've just had a thought, you haven't misheard 'hurry' as 'hurray' have you?

They'll become increasingly more common until crate 46 is removed, then they should go up in price. But they won't become so rare to merit prices like Strange Festive weapons.

It lands in a building on the side of the losing team, not necessarily their spawn. Yes, it does, accidentally.

Oh. Well I'm glad I'm still in the "minority" on the Strange aspect of it. That is a crazy handy site there, thanks for the link!

I managed to put together the Public Enemy set, through trading, Ash Piles, and a random drop.

Pistol is bloody shiet though.

I probably would've been killed by that heavy without the health buff.

That "50% fire damage vulnerability on wearer" still makes me go "eeeh..."

It's barely noticable at all.
Honestly, use it with the Baby Blaster.
The speed boost helps you get to health faster (and evade Pyros) and the boosted health gives you more time. It all balances out.

Also the candy cane's a good idea, works out for me anyway.

[9600bauds]

Holy cripes.
Using melee only with the baby's face blaster is BRUTAL.
I expected it to be silly, ha ha look at me i pan people and run fast, but hot diggety damn it's actually effective, even against people who actually take effort in countering you.
It really helps playing in a random crits server, too.

I love the Hazmat headcase. I'm glad they changed their minds about including it! I remember when it was put on the unaccepted items lis.

What made them change their mind?

Because they entirely remade the hat.

[Kapellmeister]

I still wonder how the Pyro would've breathed with the first design.

Or maybe he's a robot. That explains it.

The concept art is of a robot too. Clearly. Pyro was a robot all along.

[Simski]

Wasn't the tank on Pyro's back an oxygen tank?

Oh god, Scout is weaker against everything but bullets. Gotta use the speed to its fullest extent if you don't wanna be a pile of ash (literal kind mind you) or a pile of bloody gibs.

I might be late here, but I noticed something when i was goofing around on Mario kart.

In Pyroland, Pyros Jingle belt item appears as three Baby bottles. I never noticed it before so I changed his grenade miscs to other things. But they didn't change to baby bottles. Only the Jingle belt did.

[redBadger]

How much do you guys think the Infernal Orchestration will go up in price?

I've seen baby bottles on Soldier as well, I think they replace the Captain's Cocktails. Not sure though.

I'm more concerned about the Burning Bongos. So far there's only little over 100 of them out there...

It's because it's not in the Scorched Crate, it will fall down in price like any other drop/craft only hat.

Didn't realize those are so rare, my friend got them as a drop. Lucky dude.

[PyroCraz3d]

Almost all of the weapons are actually viable, I'm surprised. Except the bazooka imo. That thing is fun as hell to use, but not effective in any way shape or form. I like that they're finally updating old weapons that needed buffs/nerfs.

[Human Brutality]

I really think we need more sd_ maps. The only problem is the voice lines. They all say something to do with asutralium. Doesn't leave much open to imagination.

Are you possibly implying it will be seen as useful as a direct Hit in the hands of a chump?

I love charging Snipers when I have full boost.
Especially if they have the Machina.
They see me coming and can do NOTHING about it.
