Valve, I am Dissapoint

Posted by TheReno - September 3rd, 2009


If you use steam and play team fortress two, you will know that valve has taken up a zero tolerance stance on every external item getter, and have extended this to idleing. Without warning they lashed out at all idlers and took their items, but only those gained by idleing with a warning that to continue means your backpack dies. Then they wanted to show us that not cheating had its benefits, giving the gayest hat Ive ever seen. The halo. You might say that (since I myself was of the idle family) I lash out only because I didnt get it. As the spy would say, No, I think not. People who got the halo hate the damn thing.

So why am I dissapoint? Because Valve had created a moment in which to make cheaters think twice. They had set up the perfect situation to cut down cheating to a level unheard of in any online multiplayer game. And they fucked the hell out of it. All Valve would have need to do is figure out what the most popular hats are, and give it to the non cheaters. One hat that depeneded on what you had. Like say the officers unshanka was the most popular and the fedora was second fave and you had the unshanka, youd get the fedora (and so on if you had it). That would piss people off into playing it straight! Sure people would still cheat, but the majority of cheaters would switch to playing right to reap the benefits. Instead they gave out a halo for the cheaters to look at and mock. Cheating was better to them in that they didnt have that gay halo but a variety of hats (I ofcourse didnt recieve a single hat, but still got punished. Oh well xD). So for months they had new hats and now no hats most likely, but Valve is increasing the drop rate so again Cheating did more then playing it right.

Valve, I am dissapoint.

I like the halo. It's got a high comic value to it.

Maybe if there weren't cunt cheaters, this all wouldnt have been neccessary.

oh cry me a river. Steamstats just puts you in a server and makes you wait like you were playing the game, except your not playing. It didnt force items to be hats, it obeyed the steamcloud. Valve just wants you to be in the game, not fake in the game. Im not angry that valve took my items and banned idling, but they could have done it better. Also you should thank idleers. With out them valve wouldnt have upped the drop rate of hats. xD

Someone's butthurt.

Well I figure if your gunna make a fuss, make it useful. Valve failed in this.

I'm disappointed that they upped the drop rates. I wanted hats to be as unique as possible.

Other than that, I don't care too much.
And you like Star Wars? Have you heard of Bioware's new Star Wars MMORPG coming out..?

Indeed. Saw the trailer of it and it looks badass. I cant wait for it to come out.

You shouldn't cheat.

wow you suck at grammar and are in general a horrible person
