This will go over very, very well. I can already foresee it. Especially if someone with a lot of hats decides to be a jerk about it, as it always seems to happen.
I was playing TF2 since 2008, and i have none except for Halloween ones and Cheater's Lament. Do you know why? Because before the fucking item drop system was finally fixed, i didn't even get a single WEAPON. And after it was fixed, i didn't play TF2 for a prolonged amount of time. I only hope that Engineer update will restore my intrest in the game, Engineer is my favorite class.
Gah, how i hate Valve for trolling their community.
