Revision as of 01:28, 7 November 2010
Scream Fortress was the event launched with the October 27, 2010 Patch, which included the release of the two new Art Pass Contest-winning maps, new Hats, new items, and new Ghostchievements. The event runs until November 8, 2010.
It was the 2010 equivalent of the 2009 Haunted Halloween Special, becoming the second Halloween event to be held in Team Fortress 2.
Contents
Maps
Mann Manor
The biggest addition in the Scream Fortress update was Mann Manor, a Halloween-themed map with a neutral boss monster, the Horseless Headless Horsemann. He must be killed, or any player near him risks decapitation. This map also featured Haunted Halloween Gifts, which contained Halloween Masks that players could collect.
It is otherwise a standard Attack/Defend map with three Control Points.
The Horseless Headless Horsemann
The Horseless Headless Horsemann is the undead apparition of Silas Mann. A neutral character, he attacks both RED and BLU teams until he is slain. His Health ranges from 3000 to 9400, depending on the number of players in the server. He does not spawn until ten or more players are present (not including Spectators).
Mountain Lab
Mountain Lab shares the same basic layout as Mann Manor, as they are both entries from the Art Pass contest and are therefore based off the same frame.
Hats
The following hats were added:
| Halloween Masks | Saxton Hale Mask | Ghastlier Gibus | Horseless Headless Horsemann's Head |
|
|
|
|
| Spine-Chilling Skull | Horrific Headsplitter | Voodoo Juju | Cadaver's Cranium |
|
|
|
|
Two hats, the Voodoo Juju and the Spine-Chilling Skull, could only be purchased from the Mann. Co. Store during the Halloween Event. After that, the only options for acquiring them were crafting with a Haunted Metal Scrap (which could result in one or the other), trading, or gifting. Players who already had the Ghastly Gibus had it upgraded to the Ghastlier Gibus, while newcomers would only receive the old-fashioned Ghastly Gibus from the Ghastly Gibus Grab achievement from 2009.
Achievements
Items Added
Horseless Headless Horsemann's Headtaker
The Horseless Headless Horsemann's Headtaker, used by the Horseless Headless Horsemann, was a Demoman melee weapon added in the update. It was an Eyelander reskin, functionally equivalent but displaying a different model.
It was acquired through crafting with a Haunted Metal Scrap.
Sticky Jumper
Similar to the Rocket Jumper, this training weapon deals no damage but halves the health of the Demoman.
Description Tags
These tags were added to the Mann Co Store and the item drop system. When applied to an item, they allow the player to attach a new description of up to 80 characters in length.
Gift Wraps
These items allow players to wrap and deliver untradable items to other players for a small price. Many ultrarare items remain unwrappable, such as the Golden Wrench, and cannot be gifted.
