Fish

Gentlemen, we are now beating people with fishes. How awesome is that? -- OluapPlayer _(t) 21:48, 15 July 2010 (UTC)

Not right now. Be a gentle manne and put the poor cod down. -The Neotank ( | Talk) 21:51, 15 July 2010 (UTC)

Well, we were already eating Sandviches that recover wounds from people shooting arrows through our head. Still pretty awesome! --Firestorm   21:51, 15 July 2010 (UTC)

Let's make a Sandvich party for our new fish bats! Oh wait, we can't do parties anymore... -- OluapPlayer _(t) 21:54, 15 July 2010 (UTC)

Yes you can, you just have to be sneaky >.> --Firestorm   23:01, 15 July 2010 (UTC)

I'm hoping it will slap on some sort of oil on you when your hit, causing mini crits, similar to jarate coating, but the weapon would do little or no damage. I know for sure I wouldn't want to get slapped by a disgusting/slimy fish! you guys have any other crazy ideas of what it could possibly do? I want to hear them! Guy 23:26, 15 July 2010 (UTC)

Maybe have it similar to the bat, but have stink lines, and a low-power "bleed"? And a taunt that sees the scout slap them around the face with it, to a similar effect as The Sandman's taunt? Michael 22:24, 17 July 2010 (UTC)

Well here's what I hope it will be like. Video AbeX300 00:47, 21 July 2010 (UTC)

So...

This is a bit disappointing. I do like the packs and all but...what ever happened to the Demoman, Heavy, Engineer, and Medic? AbeX300 21:49, 15 July 2010 (UTC)

They will mostly likely be released at a later date --Firestorm   21:49, 15 July 2010 (UTC)

It's confirmed, some items will "find there way in" in later updates. --SLBros 22:08, 15 July 2010 (UTC)

Source? Strange Quirk 22:11, 15 July 2010 (UTC)

It was on the Polycount website, which is down due to excessive traffic --Firestorm   22:14, 15 July 2010 (UTC)

Got a source [1]. --Firestorm   22:38, 15 July 2010 (UTC)

Oh. Well once EVERYONE knows that, and once the update gets released...IT BEGIIIIIINS! --The preceding unsigned comment was added by AbeX300 (talk) • contribs)

New pages for the items?

Or at least a mention on the respective class pages and weapon chart? --KazooieBanjo 00:25, 16 July 2010 (UTC)

As of yet, we don't know if these are going to be the names of the weapons, so making a page that would just be moved/deleted is pointless --Firestorm   00:26, 16 July 2010 (UTC)

Would it be worthwhile to put them in the weapon and hat charts, or no? -KazooieBanjo 00:27, 16 July 2010 (UTC)

No, for the same reason, we'd have to go back and change them all, and you never know exactly what Valve is going to do. --Firestorm   00:32, 16 July 2010 (UTC)

The new items should be revealed next week, the links have been made by nobody needs to make the pages for them yet because we'll have to go back and change links and page names. DO NOT MAKE THE PAGES UNTIL THE ITEM NAMES AND ATTRIBUTES ARE CONFIRMED Omnomnick 13:25, 17 July 2010 (UTC)

Add Your Stats Assumptions Here

Just tell us what you assume the stats are for a weapon. Here is my assumption of the Black Box, and also compares to the Rocket Launcher! --The preceding unsigned comment was added by AbeX300 (talk) • contribs)

This is the talk page for the Polycount Update, not stat speculation. Please refrain from posting such theories. We'll have the actual stats soon enough. -- En Ex _(talk) 05:15, 16 July 2010 (UTC)

The official name

Is it the Polycount Pack? Polycount Update? Polycount Pack Update? Polycount Contest? -- Nineaxis 04:20, 16 July 2010 (UTC)

For now I would go with Polycount Update and wait for word on Valve if they call it anything else. -04:22, 16 July 2010 (UTC)

It's referenced everywhere else as the Polycount Pack, not the Polycount Update. Also, sign your comments with ~~~~ please. -- Nineaxis 04:26, 16 July 2010 (UTC)

Yeah, it's the Polycount Pack. Good point. -- Pilk _(talk) 02:28, 21 July 2010 (UTC)

Winner's background

AFAIK Larolaro is also the creator of the Homewrecker, and Progg of the Hound Dog? Anyone knows the others? --Kid Of The Century 11:07, 16 July 2010 (UTC)

Sydney Sleeper

Isn't the dart pack considered the ammo for the Sidney Sleeper? --AggieMegaMan

No, it would replace the rifle shells on the Sniper's vest --Firestorm   17:26, 16 July 2010 (UTC)

Though technically it's not a misc. considering it will likely always go on when a player is using the Sleeper, much like how the huntsman gives you arrows in your pouch. -- Mexican 00:39, 21 July 2010 (UTC)

So are we gonna get a page for this "Greentooth" misc. item?

Just wondering.

--ANormalUsername 01:41, 17 July 2010 (UTC)

Yes. -- Pilk _(talk) 01:51, 17 July 2010 (UTC)

Do not add links to the items.

There's plain no need. They'll just remain as red links until the items are released. Even then they might have differing names. Let this be a warning, if you add the links again then you will be blocked from editing for 3 days. -- Smashman... _{(t • s)} 17:45, 17 July 2010 (UTC)

When?

So does anybody know when these packs will actually be added into the game? HasturHasturHastur 16:08, 20 July 2010 (UTC)

Nope --Firestorm   16:14, 20 July 2010 (UTC)

The Saharan Spy

The spy is wearing sunglasses in every picture in the Saharan Spy. Am I the only one who thinks sunglasses are gonna be a new misc item for the Spy (or possibly an all-class item)?--Piippo 22:12, 20 July 2010 (UTC)

Part of the Fez. -- Smashman... _{(t • s)} 22:26, 20 July 2010 (UTC)

It is? Well, that's even better.--Piippo 22:56, 20 July 2010 (UTC)

Fezzes are cool. -- Vi3trice _(talk) 23:20, 20 July 2010 (UTC)

Dart Pack

Neotank, I believe he is referring to the fact that the dart pack will replace the shells on the vest in the same way that the huntsman adds the arrows to your back. The creator never stated whether it was going to be a misc or attached to the Sleeper, I'm hoping for the latter. --Firestorm   21:45, 22 July 2010 (UTC)

(Wow, I'm late.) It's more likely a misc. item because A) It's easier to model that way and B) It's referred to as a "bonus," not part of the Sydney Sleeper. Nothing is definite until release, of course, so we just leave it as is. -The Neotank ( | Talk) 02:46, 23 July 2010 (UTC)

It said "Bonus!" as in Buy the Sydney Sleeper, and we'll throw in a free ammo(dart) pack with it! It is probably part of the sydney sleeper when equipped. Anonynja 00:15, 24 July 2010 (UTC)
