| − | I'm going to take on the task of expanding and cleaning up this page. I'm primarily interested in discussing how the store works, its current limitations, and the breadth of the catalog. What things can be bought? What things can't? What things are available both in the store and as a drop? What are store exclusives? And so forth.

| − | ::I took the liberty of adding several items to the "Unavaliable Items" list. The following are what I added: Polycount Pin, Golden Wrench, Wiki Cap, Ellis' Cap, Frying Pan, Gentle Manne's Service Medal, Mercenary, Soldier of Fortune, Grizzled Veteran, Primeval Warrior, Bronze Dueling Badge, Silver Dueling Badge, Gold Dueling Badge and Platinum Dueling Badge. I'm doublechecking to make sure that I haven't forgotten anything. In the event that I have, feel free to add it. Also, should the Stock Weapons be added to this list, or would that be redundant?

| |
| − | | |
| − | Hi,
| |
| − | Can someone edit the script and for a moment think, how we other translators can in easy way edit & add new items to store after new update. For now it is extremely difficult. I wrote Polish (/pl) page and now i can't even add new items, because you are now using new script and all page is in old version. I also checked the other translations and all are in the same condition. I hope that someone take care of it. -- [[User:Szumin|Szumin]] ([[User_talk:Szumin|talk]] • [[Special:Contributions/Szumin|contrib]]) 14:04, 20 December 2010 (UTC)

| − | : I agree, currently the English page is using [[Template:Store_row]] and I can't find a way to directly translate the template anywhere. The alternative is to do what the German Mann co store page does and do all the tables manually, but I imagine the Store_row template was created because that alternative is too clunky. For now, pretty much every non-English page is left half-translated, as a result. - [[User:Meadows|Meadows]] 15:09, 28 December 2010 (UTC) | |

| − | Bugs/issues with April14 patch.
| |
| − | | |
| − | These are the bugs I've submitted in-game already, some may or may not have already been present. They are all to do with previewing items in the Mann Co. Store.
| |
| − | | |
| − | *The 'Ol Snaggletooth (Sniper) is missing it's preview image.
| |
| − | *The 'Garish and Overbearing' setting for the Scotsmans Stovepipe (Demoman) hat is missing its texture, and shows up purple and black.
| |
| − | *The default Red texture for the Chieftans Challenge (Soldier) hat is missing.
| |
| − | *Dr Dappers Topper (Soldier) is missing both its preview image, and does not appear on the Soldier at all when prievewing for the Red team. It does appear for Blu though.
| |
| − | *The Grenadier's Softcap (Soldier) does not have a preview image, and is textured white when previewing for both Red and Blu teams.
| |
| − | *The Heavy Duty Rag (Heavy) is missing it's preview texture (it is currently using a bumpmap/lightmap image), and does not display when viewing the Heavy on Red team.
| |
| − | *The Industrial Festivizer (Engineer) hat is colored white when viewing the Red team.
| |
| − | *When first viewing the Gloves of Running Urgently (Heavy), they do not have the flame texture on them. Switching from Red to Blu and back to Red again will fix it.
| |
| − | *The Half-Zatoichi will show blood on the blade for Blu Team (Demoman and Soldier) but not the Red Team.
| |
| − | *All characters, except for the Demoman (and possibly the Sniper, I can't tell) have no eyes in prieview mode, and their character models are able to be seen through.
| |
| − | *All instances of a Blu Demoman preview have him holding a Scottish Resistance instead of a Stickybomb Launcher (where applicable).
| |
| − | Dunno if these should be added to the bugs section on the main article or not
| |
| − | [[User:DarkQuill|DarkQuill]] 05:34, 15 April 2011 (UTC)
| |
| − | : There is another bug i found that you haven't explained. Its when you preview any hat with 'team spirit' paint. As you switch teams to Blu, the red colour still remains instead of the light blue colour respectively. Possibly a bug? [[User:Skymonster|Skymonster]] 13:13, 17 April 2011 (UTC)

| − | == Time restriction before trading. ==
| |
| − | | |
| − | Apparently tools and other stuff (usually tradable) bought from the Store cannot be traded right away, but have to wait a few work days. Can anyone confirm this?
| |

| − | Also does this "timer" carry over? E.g. unboxed stuff/painted hats cannot be traded until the time limit expires.

The problem, though, is that with the way we do language switching, that won't actually make the templates any cheaper (actually, they will become more expensive). The solution would be to use Russian templates specifically designed for the Russian article, and take rubles out of the current templates. Also, I don't know about the other three currencies. I think the other three all need to be on the English pages, and it's hard to know which is appropriate for other non-English languages. – [[User:Fashnek|<span style="text-size:1.5em;font-weight:bold;color:#363;text-shadow:0 0 0.8em #6c6;">fashnek</span>]] <sub>([[User talk:Fashnek|talk]]·[[Special:Contributions/Fashnek|c]])</sub> 22:06, 13 December 2011 (PST)
