Talk:Item drop system
Multiple drop mechanics
I've added an explanation on how a player can "receive" multiple items/drops (shown on the hud as multiple "has found"). I would be thinking of a way to make the explanation a lot clearer (I'm unsatisfied at the current state). -- ShunyValdez 15:55, 8 October 2010 (UTC)
Under what conditions will you not receive item drops?
The information I have been able to find is old, and sometimes contradictory. I was hoping to find the answers here, on the wiki, but no mention is made in this article. Do you still have to be signed into the friends system to receive item drops? If you do not, when did this change take place? Lastly, can you receive drops in training mode, offline practice, or by creating a private LAN or internet server?
If somebody can find this information, I feel it would be a great addition to the article, for people like myself who haven't followed the system very closely. --Shackanaw 08:32, 10 July 2010 (UTC)
- I'll answer what I do know: You can receive drops in a private LAN server (I get items all the time while tr_walkway'ing), and I assume offline practice/training mode is exactly the same as that (only a different map). As for your other question, I don't know D: — WindPower 08:35, 10 July 2010 (UTC)
- I received an item drop in offline practice while I was not signed into my friends list, so those two are answered. However, I still do not know when they made it so you do not have to be signed into the Steam Community. --Shackanaw 01:08, 16 July 2010 (UTC)
Error
What's that "cite error" BS at the bottom of the page? -Shine () 13:40, 23 August 2010 (UTC)
