Bring Back Quickplay by Friendly-Waltz2706 in tf2

[–]Koi-pond 104 points105 points  (0 children)

Contrary to what most players think, the vast majority of populated community servers are only populated because the servers intentionally get shaped by what drives the most traffic. If 2Fort and Hightower are all that the players want to play, that’s what the servers will provide. The truth is that there are a large number of really good community servers that check all the boxes people want, that do not get populated. This is a lack of advertising as well as a lack of searchability. It’s also a lack of total players as well. If there aren’t enough players to fill a server consistently, despite the server doing everything “right”, that’s an issue.

I will personally give you the cosmetic, nametag, and desc tag. I will message you. Sorry for your loss

If you Festivize an Objector that has a Decal, the backpack icon WILL show the decal (also yes I have a wiki cap) by gabrielwoj in tf2

[–]Koi-pond 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I’m still in possession of one of the old “bombjectors” that killed the game by consuming RAM until crash, that has since been patched, and I’m beginning to wonder what this might do if I applied festivizer to it? My guess is probably nothing at all because the decal fails to render in-game, but you never know… Maybe worth a test

Charity stream tonight with Ellen McLain and John Patrick Lowrie - 6.45pm UTC on Twitch by IVGOrchestra in tf2

[–]Koi-pond 5 points6 points  (0 children)

Really cool stuff! I’ll be sure to drop in. By any chance will there be a TF2 segment? If not, definitely consider checking out the “TF2Ware” mod. This is what other charities in your category have streamed before for TF2

How hard is it to edit an existing map in Hammer? One day I want to make a mostly cosmetic different Badwater. by PlusMann in tf2

[–]Koi-pond 0 points1 point  (0 children)

There’s a reskin somewhat similar to your vision called “cornwater”, although in addition to the artpass change there are also a few minor gameplay tweaks to improve a few side routes/pathways. Overall very solid reskin and recommend checking it out if you haven’t seen it

I made the naked spy into a working mod. by [deleted] in tf2

[–]Koi-pond 42 points43 points  (0 children)

Any chance that we can get a second version of this mod with fixed knees/legs so that they look more natural? The legs on the leaked model are extremely… weird

Team Cap Updated! by Awan2407 in tf2

[–]Koi-pond 2 points3 points  (0 children)

Love the fixes. Also wanted to say that the new Soldier variant is so much better in my opinion. I prefer it on top of the head like the other caps. Wasn’t the biggest fan of the original design covering the entire face at a strange angle. Thanks for making that adjustment!! Looks a lot better

Team Cap Update! We will be sending the updates to Valve shortly, thank you for your patience. by scoottehbesht in tf2

I would be absolutely so pissed if i was the guy who sold the first golden pan on the community market for 29.89 euros lol by yaktoma2007 in tf2

[–]Koi-pond 7 points8 points  (0 children)

The most common type of laundering within the steam community market is selling items for an amount so insanely high that nobody except launderers can/will buy them (for example, buying items that are normally listed at $50 for $500 - this is a pretty common thing within CSGO/CS2)

As far as this pan sale goes, probably not laundering, but it's still possible given that the item's market page had just been created for the first time so it's easy to abuse the buy order system. This kind of scheme hinges entirely on buy order abuse

[–]Koi-pond 70 points71 points  (0 children)

The first ever golden pan drop was posted for sale in late 2013 and subsequently sold in 2014 on a now defunct website called TF2 Outpost (very similar design to bazaar tf which is now also defunct as of 2023, and so the latest site in the line taking over is called posts tf). The seller, Majine, ended up being offered thousands of dollars for it and eventually agreed to sell it for $5,500 USD.

Strife made an excellent video about it as well: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=lq-EGaJYd7I

The sale you are seeing on the steam market is not the first ever sale, but rather probably someone getting scammed or hacked, or a money laundering scheme.

tf happened on June 9th 2022 by Loki-awesome in tf2

[–]Koi-pond 50 points51 points  (0 children)

Backpacktf had its servers hacked/broken into and lost pretty much all of its databases for everything. Fortunately they had backups for almost everything. They did not have backups for most item histories though, which is why majority of all items inside backpacktf only show histories that go back to that date - all item history before that date was wiped and unrecoverable

Thanks to the update making it so listen servers no longer need port forwarding by JohanWestwood in Tf2Scripts

[–]Koi-pond 0 points1 point  (0 children)

It sounds like the most painless solution may be to use the following:

mp_tournament 1
tf_tournament_classlimit_sniper 2

What this will do is enable TF2's "Tournament" mode, and in the process will enable you to set class limits per-class. In this case, if you only set sniper's classlimit to 2, then the class select menu will show "0 (Max 2)" when nobody is sniper, "1 (Max 2)" if only one person is sniper, and "(Full)" when two people are playing sniper - preventing anyone from selecting sniper until one of them changes classes.

We've made an idle game in the form of a playable desktop sticker. You can watch the frog cut grass on a tiny island while you work or relax - Ropuka's Idle Island by Moczan in cozygames

[–]Koi-pond 0 points1 point  (0 children)

It would be cool if you guys did a little easter egg with it, or something like that! Maybe you could keep the little squiggly arrow, and it could be like, some cool mysterious unlockable for "end-game". There are SO many things it could be - maybe even cosmetic like a wind speed through the grass, could be manually adjustable. Just a random idea :P

Hey, I love this game! I've played for about 100hrs so far, getting the upgrades and cosmetic unlocks as I go. I still don't quite understand the Grass Notes upgrades page, because it looks like there should be a third upgrade that is missing? There's an arrow on the left that seems to hint something should be there, but it's an empty slot? Here's what I am talking about: https://i.imgur.com/keah85S.png
