Gaming The BIG TF2 Thread

[Satangel]

Anybody have a Strange Rocket Launcher for sale? I cannot get a good deal.

Atm I have Strange Direct Hit and Strange Liberty, but not Strange RL.

Thanks Joe for the info, that's good news

Just wondering, has there ever been any action from Valve/Steam to TF2 idlers? What actions were that?

the only thing they ever did was not give them a hat http://wiki.teamfort...ater%27s_Lament
but many people who used idle programs still got the hat

Actually we (I idled) also had most of our idle items stripped. Or a decent amount anyway.
Though at one point I got the Losers Lament anyway...not entirely sure why.

That was...like 3 years ago. They seemed to stop caring.

Okay, somewhat less good news.
I'm really trying to find a method to run about 4-8 TF2 accounts at the same time but it just won't work. Most I've succeeded in was 2 accounts, where one was Sandboxed and the other just normal Windows 7.
But when I try to run multiple Sandboxies at the same time it always disconnects one of the Steam accounts, it's like the second Sandboxie I start isn't really sandboxed but just in the first sandbox....

So yeah, looking for something else now.

Trial or premium Sandboxie?
Trial only allows 2 accounts max so that's why you'd get disconnected.

I cracked it correctly I think, it definitely gave me a confirmation that said I registered the program..... Will look at the topic where I 'acquired' it, ty

But Sandboxie asks a lot of clicking and waiting in between if you want to start 4 accounts, I'm sure there must be something that's faster to boot up.

Does anyone think that I could possibly get Batman: Arkham Asylum GOTY for my entire TF2 backpack at some other sites?

Or is that too outrageous a trade?

Good luck with that. That's way too much I think. I would give 2 euros for your BP max, there isn't a single item in there that's worth over 1 USD, it's almost all normal weapons that accumulate. It's going to be VERY hard to get that deal

My suggestion:

• Either start trading actively
• Or wait for an inevitable sale on that game that might make it less than 10 euros or so.

Quick question, I have about 3 clean Bill's hats at the moment and I've seen painted ones go for more keys.
So I was thinking, why not buy a cheap paint and paint them, thus upping the price by 1/2 keys! Should I do that?

Or do they only pay 1/2 keys more for decent paints?

people only pay more for Pink as Hell, Lime, Team Spirit, White, and Black.
When a hat is painted the value of the paint is halved and added to the price of the hat. so lime/pink adds about 1-1.33 ref to the value and black/white adds about a key or 2.

Nice, how did you get it? Have fun with it!

Also, can anyone explain which levels add to the value of an item?
I got a Vintage Towering Pillar of Hats lvl 100 from a friend who quit TF2, and I sold it for 3 keys. But apparently, it was worth LOADS more, because it was lvl 100
I just didn't know this...... It's worth about 5 times my price, maybe even 10 times.....

Some guy just randomly added me the other day saying he wanted to trade, I was bumping the trade alot of the time on TF2Outpost, saying the price would go down even more soon. So the guy sold it to me.

As for Levels: 100 is the rarest. It's a meaningless number, like hats are meaningless, but it's rarer than say, Level 30. Sucks that you did that, but honestly, I wouldn't pay 10 times the price

 

[Joe88]

actually lvl.0 is rarest

there are collectors out there who only want certain levels, if its their lucky number or numbers like 0,1,7,13,42,100
other people could care less and offer spreadsheet on the item

I can understand every other number but why 13? Apollo 13?

 

[Joe88]

13 is considered an unlucky number http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/13_%28number%29#Lucky_and_unlucky
and it has its collectors

the last breath pyro misc for example always has a number 13 level

The Vintage hat has just been sold for 15 keys 5 times my price, ffs.....

In other news, I got my second Unusual yesterday! It's pretty crap but if I sell it even for 1 bud I make about 5 keys pure profit
Elfin Deal with NutzNBoltz Bought it for 18 keys + 2 strange parts, after long negotiating.
