so the TF2 team is working on a secret project that isn't a map, a hat, or a hat-map hybrid. could it be that "The Guard Dog" is finally going to get it's debut? cause honestly the only other option was a metric but ton of new guns but I don't think that would be worthy of being a secret project...
A kid who went to Valve recently for the Make A Wish Foundation said he got to try out a "Raid" mode. Foundry has a secret room in which it shows pictures of heavy, (scout I think), and demoman but with like, robotic parts. People have been speculating that this will be the same as the Invasion mode concept from way back when. HYPE. Also that kid got a custom unusual (Ghosts Spine Chilling skull) (he immediately tried to sell it) (valve changed it to community right after they found out) (yes the effect is still ghosts, tf2b doesn't show it right)
That sucks. They did a nice thing for him, and he turned around and tried to mess it up. Also, @Bigburito, the thing they're working on *could* be Meet the Pyro.
but in the same post they talk about how they're working on the meet the pyro short, so the two aren't the same (which means something awesome will surely be coming down the pipes)
Oh. Well. Hey, at least they're working on Meet the Pyro! Also, did you do that A.V.A. thing? You get a neat reskin of the spy knife just for downloading it and completing a round (even if you don't win), and word on the street is that this is a very temporary thing, and won't work anymore after the weekend. The people in A.V.A. are dicks, the game seems amateurish and the interface is really bad, it's Ijji, I have a terrible ping with all the servers and stuff when I can even figure out how to connect, and I must be running around with a "Kick me!" badge or something, because even when I have a decentish ping, admins seem to enjoy kicking me, probably because of some statistics or something I have somewhere that say I haven't played before. Anyhow, it was a generally unpleasant experience, and for the 6+ GB space it took up, I wasn't interested at all in keeping it once I got the knife. Oh, also, the achievement is called like "First One Down" or something.
Eh, the knife is ok, but one of the viewmodels is messed up on one of the styles, if you're using the black theme, your arm will always be on red team. They did the same thing with the Half Zatoichi on release too though. AVA is really not that fun though. You could always use Steam Achievement Manager and unlock the achievement also. (This also saves you a bit a bandwidth too.)
If you have the game running and use it at the same time, on VAC ban-able games, yeah, you can. Just don't be an idiot when using it. :V
Basically, don't be an idiot when you're running it. Look up how to use it or something. Also they did actually care about people using them during the steam winter event, because cheating and coal farming. Otherwise I don't think they really care at all. I got me a santa hat. (2 months late)
