"Ugh..."

CAN YOU FEEL THE SPOOKINESS APPROACHING?!?!

    I know I can. As you all may know, Valve likes to release a spooky scary update for us every October. This usually includes an assortment of new Halloween related goodies, a reskined map or two, and a spooky boss to give us a spooky hat!

Sadly that hasn't happened yet, so for all you workshop contributors, there's still time! Speaking of contributing, I've always wanted to contribute to tf2, in, well, about every way. Maps, cosmetics, weapons, even taunts. Infact, this year I was thinking about how crazy it'd be to have unusual Halloween taunt effects! But alas, I'm not a pro designer, animator, or level editor, but it's still something I wish to put my efforts towards someday.

 "Light your fire to glory" a man once said never.

Now another thing I like to talk about for a bit is the "value" of the in game items of TF2. Recently, I joined a trade server (Based off of Zelda Majora's Masks Clock Town) where I met some people who were talking about in-game pricing and in-game markets. One of 'em mentioned that in the game World of Warcraft (something I never thought i'd be talking about in my life) the prices of items and their value was actually made by the game creators, not the community, therefore meaning that the game intentionally implanted a trade system on how some items are worth currency within the game (In this case, many people see metal, keys, bills, and buds as currency)

But then he mentioned on how Valve originally wanted to have the players have there own values set to items, in the sense, that, this Otolaryngologist Mirror

(Which by the way Blogger, Otolaryngologist is an actual word, don't bombard me with the red text of death) Doesn't actually have a price value to it, you could potentially sell this for a Soda Popper or a Bill's Hat, but since the community decided to give an actual price, it sorta takes away the personal value of the item. In fact, nowadays Valve has been making the community's price market more and more "official" with the inclusion of being able to sell stranges, more and more strange cosmetics, and the "Limited" craft value items that can now be sold on the market (These items include Ebenezer's, Bills, buds and the new cosmetics)  Just, everything is now a stock market, but we really can't complain. TF2 is STILL TF2. Which is something a lot of people forget. But hey, it is what it is.

SO NOW THE MOMENT YOU'VE ALL BEEN WAITING FOR TWO. WHOLE. WEEKS. WHAT DID I GET?!?!

Let's see...

CRATE #84

This...this...this thing...

That's right, one of the killstreak crates, and there's no reason for me to name the price of all the killstreak weapons, simply because they don't have one.

• Stickybomb Launcher kit
• Minigun Kit
• Direct Hit Kit
• Huntsman Kit
• Backburner Kit
• Back Scatter Kit
• Kritzkrieg Kit
• Ambassador Kit
• Frontier Justice Kit

Now if i'm correct, you CAN get Specialized and Professional Killstreaks from these things, so let's hope I can at least get something worth putting onto a strange weapon...

Unboxing you're sexy new stuff in very low quality in

5...4...3...2...1...

My new item is...

A...regular...killstreak Back Scatter...which I can't even put a strange on yet...

Guess that's life huh? Ugh...I'll be seeing you all again soon and I'm sorry for such a long delay, you're in for a treat these next couple of days. Take care everybody, and happy uncrating!
