Has it been confirmed that the Key can't be randomly dropped? Mistah Phoenix 13:17, 1 October 2010 (UTC)
Pretty much, but they might change it due to the obivously negative community reaction. It also doesn't make much sense that you can get crates through drops, but there's no way in hell you can open them without buying a key. Xarex
- It's to encourage you to buy the key, obviously. – Smashman (talk) 23:25, 1 October 2010 (UTC)

- This is basically the exact same thing they did with Combat Arms, the only difference being that you can't get any keys normally. Asdfzxc920 00:45, 9 October 2010 (UTC)

Droppable?
YES, I know it's been asked a million times, but people have been claiming that Keys DO drop, but at the Hat Rate, in response to the amount of flack the TF2 team caught for having an item drop that required you to buy the key thus spending money and getting a plain old weapon most players already had that wasn't worth $2.49. Any word on this, Smash? I can't find anything about it, and you talk to Robin, so let us know? Also, there are at least tradable keys somehow; Robin has one in his backpack. --Skunk 21:56, 8 October 2010 (UTC)
- Also, there seems to be 5 keys traded to other players according to tf2items.com. --ISpycheck 20:46, 9 October 2010 (UTC)
- Yeah I heard of people finding keys too, but I haven't actually seen any. Also can you give a link to that stat page on tf2items.com? --Crash3MSTR 06:01, 10 October 2010 (UTC)
- What they should do, is have the crates in the store to buy, or increase the Key drop rate, it doesn't make sense, as stated above to drop a crate, then never be able to use it or craft it. Valve is only angering the players. --Hawkshadow741

Craftable?
I've been hearing that people are now able to craft keys somehow, how exactly is that possible?--Kingplatypus3rd 01:02, 1 December 2010 (UTC)
- I've heard nothing of the sort, likely rumor. I'll drop by SourceOP though to double-check. StarYoshi 01:03, 1 December 2010 (UTC)
