As for leveled up weapons, valve needs to realize tf2 isn't WoW. Random drops should be left in the mmo realm, where uncertainty keeps you glued to your chair. Even so, in most cases, when it comes to mmo's, you know what the hell you're supposed to do to have a chance of getting said drop. As it is, there's no way you can earn the leveled up guns and the luckiest will be the most frowned upon. Look at me, for example. I hardly play the heavy and got the hat. You would expect someone who plats spy/scout/medic most of the time to get one of those 3 hats and people who play the heavy (like advent and anubis) to get the heavy hat.


Even though it's ugly and out of place.


Whenever someone tries to attract two very different niches, they'll ultimately get laughed at.

I guess that's why they're going to introduce the trading system so you can get rid of items which don't interest you. But still, the point remains.

Yeah that's great! I'll get that for my heavy as well (I'm another one of the no heavy using players that got blessed with the great American football hat).


edit: Can someone explain the noob here where to put the files? thanks!

Just drag the Materials and Models folder to:

Program Files > Steam > steamapps > *yourusername* > team fortress 2 > tf

These may not work on the Festers servers though cause the server don't like custom skins except for player models like these for example. Weapon skins, engi building skins and level decal skins along with any custom models (ie. the ushanka) will only work right after the server has restarted, to which afterwards it just sets everything to normal, except for the aformentioned player model skins.

Actually it worked :D Just tested it on Fester's Karaoke Bar. So I recommend everyone willing to boycott that silly helmet to get this!

Bosco summed it up perfectly. Another thing is the fact the original weapons don't drop, I've never seen a lv500 flamethrower, minigun or fists. How can you *find* fists anyway?

I don't want a situation where a high level natascha does more damage than the minigun just because you can't upgrade the minigun.
