Matchmaking was terrible at first, but at this point I'd put it pretty on par with quickplay. Results may vary though, I'm sure it's slower if there are less players in your region.

I missed the part where that's my problem.

So, the latest update may or may not have given certain crates a 100% chance to drop unusuals. Suffice it to say, the economy is going nuts. Most unusuals are now selling for under five dollars.

I missed the part where that's my problem.

At least there was an update, albeit a very minor one.

Five dollars? I've seen unusuals go for half a dollar.

It's a right mess. I don't care for market much, but lots of people do and could find themselves put off from the game. Tinpot theories that this is either an attempt to get more devs to work on TF 2 or a way to gather attention for the upcoming Heavy Update feel like wishful thinking at best.

Hearing that trading is disabled and people abusing the glitch will get punished somehow. This is a huge mess.

In other news, Gmod shitposting lord STBlackST posted a video last week.

Here's a post from the dev team regarding the unusual market crash.

Tl;dr: the first Unusual you got will be free for you to trade - any excess of Unusuals will become untradable. Trade-locked unusuals can be refunded (presumably for a cost of a key to open the crate you got it from?)

Item tradability, restoration, and the refund support page will be made available in about a week's time. Refunds will be the full price paid for any hats, crates or keys bought on the Steam Community Market or Mann Co. store. We will post an update when that exact date becomes available.

Also this.

TF 2 story of the day: found a default enemy engie with Eureka Effect out on our side of the map on Landfall, chased him into a corner with the whip out. We had a bit of a conversation through voice commands.

As you may know, there are default battle cries and directed battle cries, just like crying out for Spy can be in general or by pointing at someone. So, Soldier goes "if you know what's good for you, you will run!"

Engie proceeds to retreat to his side of the map. I can't tell if he was too confused or what not. But that's why I love this game to bits; these entirely random, unscripted moments where people who may not even get what a "friendly" is play along anyway and everyone has a good laugh over it.

I just uncrated a Miami Nights Trash Man from Crate 77. First unusual in a long time. Miami Nights is a good effect but the Trash Man doesn't exactly go with everything.

He was 79, had a heart attack last February, and was dealing with cancer, and it took a goddamn pandemic to take him down.

Rest in peace.

i remember a quote from soldier where he told you that you only have one life, or several depending on your religion- either way, they're finite, so don't waste them.

guy was real good.. maybe even the best.

Damn it, I don't even play TF 2, just indulge in all these zany random gmod/SFM videos and this...

Rather depressing. Now any future Soldier lines added in the game won't feel the same anymore. At least he teleported bread.

So, apparently the TF2 (and CS:GO and possibly other Source games for that matter) source code got leaked, meaning there are now massive security vulnerabilities. Highly recommend avoiding the games until the issue is resolved.

Yeah, at this point I don't see the game surviving. This game saved my life... this hurts for me on a number of different levels and places. I really don't want to see it go. sad

If only we could put actual signatures here.
