Goddamnit Valve, I went on a weapon smelting spree just yesterday  Why do they always have terrible timing with these things. Cleared my entire inventory of useless junk 2 days before they introduced smelting itself too. Oh and Machinarium, I should really try that again. It was fun until I got to that moveable pipe area and I couldn't figure out how to continue (even WITH the ingame guide......) |

The moving pipe area in the demo (presumably the same one) took a while to work out because I didn't realise you could squish the robot down into a crouch.

Goddamnit Valve, I went on a weapon smelting spree just yesterday 8Bit, check this out: I'm not sure if it applies to items crafted previous to this update, but it's worth a shot. But oh man! I've been looking for the Gunboats for ages, and now I can just make one (since I have a spare Razorback and Chargin' Targe lying about). I can also make the Crit-a-Cola, but I already have all of the other new stuff they'd mentioned. I can't wait to see where Valve goes with this ;D Downloading Portal right now....hopefully it'll work on my PC. Good luck, brah. I've learned over the past half year that PC gaming is very technical and there are computers that just can't run a game. I hope yours is up to task, because if you're going to play any game, Portal's it. |

Portal did work, and it's a mindtrip. XD I'm digging it a lot so far. My PC tends to be fine with games up to 2007 or so - Oblivion works, but I had to change the water texture to make it function (so I have purple water, woo). Considering it's just an Intel Plug and Play Graphics Card, I can't complain.

Sometime after that post I'd made in response to the forge updates, I found three more Razorbacks in a 24 hour period.
Three copies of the shittiest weapon in the game in less than a day.
God dammit, I love the increased drop rate, but come on! I don't use the Sniper that much. I've used him less than I've used the Engineer (mostly due to the technological restrictions on my gaming laptop costing the precision you need to Snipe).

Hey, add in a bottle of pee and you've got 2 pieces of scrap! That's 2 scraps less to make hats, hats, hats! |

Yeah, I guess in the end they are good for scrap metal. I've got two Reclaimed Metal and one Scrap Metal - I'm getting my first hat, slowly but surely! I'm not sure if I should craft a Pyro or Heavy hat though...probably the Pyro, their hats are my favorite. (I have Pyro and Heavy class tokens, so I have at least that much control.)

Betta hold back on that smelting spree, ANOTHER update (not the pryo one) has appeared, that has a bunch of new hats, and some new weapons (Like a Sniper melee weapon that causes players to "bleed" for 8 seconds).

Oooh, about time the Sniper got a new Melee weapon! I'm not sure what the "+8 second bleed" thing is talking about, but I've got some spare crafting parts lying around. I might as well make one!
I'm not quite as excited for the Demoman's new weapon. He already had two alternate melee weapons, so a third is just meh.
The new hats are pretty OK, too - I don't care much for the Pyro's Roman thing, and knowing my luck that's going to be the hat I wind up with after crafting, but the beard is awesome.
Oh yes, confirmed crafting formulas for the new melee weapons:
Huntsman + Dead Ringer = Tribalman's Shiv
Axetinguisher + Jarate = Scotsman's Skullcutter.

Thanks Robot! The new weapons looks cool- 'bout time the Sniper got a new weapon.
Man, I love how the hats are coming along. So many hats that fit the characters perfectly, so many jokes, so many shout outs.... Time to go edit the TV Tropes page...
