There was a major Team Fortress 2 update today which added with new weapons, hats, trading system and microtransactions. It is now possible to buy the items you want instead of waiting for them to be dropped randomly.
|
items available through in game cash shop |
All updates for Team Fortress 2 and other valve games up till now have been free. Is this the begining microtransactions being used in more Valve titles?
Wicked, have to hop on and try all of that out!
ReplyDeleteSweet! Gonna try it out ASAP.
ReplyDeleteDoesn't that take the fun out of the game, if you can buy your way through it instead of searching?
ReplyDeletelol wait.. people pay for this shet... D:
ReplyDeleteI'm an avid reader of yours so I'd appreciate it if you headed over to my blog and voted in my poll and stuff =)
oh i didn't even know they updated
ReplyDelete17.50 for a hat eh? What the hell.
ReplyDeleteI actually havn't tried this yet o.O
ReplyDeleteThis is the first time I've heard of this game
ReplyDeletecool, i didnt know it came out yet
ReplyDeleteGuess they know how to rake in the money. GGs, steam.
ReplyDeleteCool info, thanks
ReplyDeleteThe things people are willing to pay for just to inflate their online self esteem over others.
ReplyDeleteJust more people paying for an e-penis
ReplyDeletei absolutely loved the shit out of this game for a month on xbox live. then my xbox broke. and now im broke. and i cant pay for it on steam.
ReplyDeleteif there is someone out there who just happens to want to give some love. steam id is monty_price.
I guess if you really want a hat bad enough you'll pay for it, haha. All items they sell (except for stuff like paint cans) can still be crafted or traded so I think this is a great update.
ReplyDeleteHaven't played TF2 in a while. Thanks for reminding me of this update. gonna check it out.
ReplyDelete£12 for a pixelated hat? must be one hell of a extrodinary hat.
ReplyDeleteGood that you liked it :)I like the crocodile hat aswell hahaha!
ReplyDeletei love the new update, it roxxx
ReplyDeletethey're just ripping us off man
ReplyDeleteSeems a bit expensive. Unfortunately, thanks to Blizzard (imo) they appear to have found out that some gamers will pay for absolutely anything.
ReplyDeletePaying for in-game items sucks. just saying.
ReplyDeleteI Think it's disappointing to say the least.
ReplyDeleteI am honestly SO disappointed to see where gaming is going these days. Soon almost every game will have microtransactions if it means more money.
ReplyDeletesweet game
ReplyDeletecounter strike is still my favorite steam game, or valve, i forget.
ReplyDeleteWait hats with stats? wtf? I haven't been on TF2 is a long while but it seems much has changed.
ReplyDeleteI find this all very ridiculous to be honest. Nice blog though.
ReplyDeleteLol excellent, we seems to like the same things :D
ReplyDeletehaha damn this should keep things interesting
ReplyDeleteI am not a TF player but I might buy it :) will follow you for to get some tips on updates :)
ReplyDeleteoh no, i don't like the pay for stuff gimmick too much.
ReplyDeletepersonally i hate that people can buy things in games with real money. defeats the purpose.
ReplyDeleteoh hello kind sir, have me met yet? =)
ReplyDeletesmoochies n' poopies! :*
Ugh, one more reason to not like Tf2.
ReplyDeleteCool I already got the Black Box (not going to spend anything in the shop though)
ReplyDeletei would almost consider buying some items if they weren't so ridiculously overpriced.
