With info about Vintage and Unusual etc? – Smashman (talk) 23:35, 1 October 2010 (UTC)
- Support: Never heard of Unusual, though. -The Neotank ( | Talk) 23:37, 1 October 2010 (UTC)
- Support I say yes. There are quite a few different types now of rarity. Normal, common, uncommon/rare, community, valve, vintage, "Mann Co crate purple rare", and "Mann Co crate ultra rare". A handy style table would be lovely. Infi^ 23:58, 1 October 2010 (UTC)
There are alot of players wanting to get rid of their rare hats now, possibly due to having traded alot to apprehend them for themselves, be on the lookout if you want to get them yourselves.--The preceding unsigned comment was added by FPSAndy (talk) • contribs)
Unusual effects
Reminder to self, create table with the different effects possible. ([1]) --Firestorm 23:41, 2 October 2010 (UTC)
- There's a currently unused particle effect "Circling Skull". I just thought I'd like to point that out (nanosheep_inc) 12:29, 22 October 2010 (UTC)
Unusual Hats Gallery
As you can probably tell, we don't have many images and the images are poor quality. If anyone who has an Unusual hat could send me a link to a high-quality picture of their Unusual hat, they will be immortalized on the Wiki! (It's awesome, honest).
Before sending me a picture, be sure to check the page to make sure a better image isn't already on there.
For effects that only surround the hat, a head-and-shoulders picture on a blank background would be best. Taunts are fine as long as they don't obscure the effect.
For effects that surround the player, a full-body picture at a slightly downward angle of the class is best. Again, taunts are fine, but please make sure the effect is visible in front and slightly to the side, to show that it circles the class.
Send me the link either here, on my userpage or by sending me a steam message --Firestorm 20:34, 5 October 2010 (UTC)
- I'll take a screencap of my Unusual hat. :) -- En Ex (talk) 07:02, 8 October 2010 (UTC)
- Do you think we could be ambitious enough to document every possible unusual hat combination and post its image here? (nanosheep_inc) 14:21, 21 October 2010 (UTC)
Random leveled weapons?
Perhaps a note about random leveled weapons. eg Period when they dropped, what they are etc... --Riz 14:41, 12 October 2010 (UTC)
- While they are rare, they don't have a unique item quality. The information on randomly leveled items can be found here. -- Pilk (talk) 14:43, 12 October 2010 (UTC)
Can we get the effect's code numbers back?
When looking at someone's backpack on tf2items or other backpack examiners all you see is the number of the effect, not any sort of descriptor. I used to come here to find what the effect actually was, but suddenly it's just a number, not the actual code. (also, why does it start at 6?)--The preceding unsigned comment was added by FPSAndy (talk) • contribs)
- When I look on TF2Items, TF2B or OPTF2 I see the effect's name, not a number. And the article does list the effects and their numbers, so I'm not sure what your comment is about.-RJ 13:06, 18 October 2010 (UTC)
Unusual Amount.
There are 63 Possible hats at the moment that can have Unusual Effects. Hatless and Ol' Snaggletooth are not 'Unusual Able'. There are also 14 effects currently in the game. I've corrected the number accordingly. 6*14=882 Spar13 22:24, 18 October 2010 (UTC)
- Can we get a list of which hats are 'Unusual Able'? AileTheAlien 26:00, 24 October 2010 (UTC)
Rare/Common/Normal Weapons
There are variants of developers weapons with rarity like "Rare", "Common" and "Normal" - should they be added here too? Should the Developer weapons page be merged with this page? BarnabasHale 11:08, 20 October 2010 (UTC)
Standard Items section
This section in regards to the quality + use of nametags is technically incorrect. The Items now viewable as part of the name-tag system are already assigned unique quality and are discrete items with their own definition indicies, aka "upgradable" weapons. "Standard" items (retaining their original quality) are still not present in backpacks. Should this distinction be made, or would it be considered too technical for the purview of the article? Ath 22:15, 24 October 2010 (UTC)
- No, I agree completely and didn't notice this before. Thanks. -- Lagg 12:01, 30 October 2010 (UTC)
"Failure" Crafting Two Unusuals...
I think it should state that any two unusuals crafted together yeild a Normal hat not an Unusual vice-versa with an unusual batters as its used with two bonks. Gamecrazy009 09:15, 31 October 2010 (UTC)
Gallery? In my Unusuals?
Should we keep adding Pictures of other unusuals not listed? or just the effects, ive got two friends with Bonk Helm Confetti and pananma energy :l Gamecrazy009 21:51, 2 November 2010 (UTC)
- We have a picture of every effect. Don't think we need 896 pictures of every hat with every effect :P Moussekateer 22:05, 2 November 2010 (UTC)
Unusual Hat Possibilities
So I thought it would be easier to keep track of which hats are 'unusual-able' and which are not in a table like this. Obtained means yes they can be found, unobtained means no they can't. From what I understand no unusual promo/misc/hatless hats can be found. The Horrific Headsplitter and Cadaver's Cranium I am not 100% sure about, but I see no reason logically why they can't be. As you can see, I believe there are currently 66 'unusual-able' hats. Moussekateer 19:22, 3 November 2010 (UTC)
- Impressive :D, but isnt the Texas Slim Unusual as well? ive seen someone with sunshine effect (lol) Gamecrazy009 21:49, 4 November 2010 (UTC)
- I don't know I haven't seen an unusual hatless in game and I keep reading that they can't exist. I'd love to see some evidence otherwise. Moussekateer 23:42, 4 November 2010 (UTC)
"Normal" items is incorrect
As we've seen ingame, in the backpack, "normal" items are called "stock" items. Given that that is a fact, should we change that bit of article to reflect this? TomReeds 01:12, 14 November 2010 (UTC)
- I see your point but the first line of the 'Normal' section states 'Normal items are also called 'stock' items.' Moussekateer 01:15, 14 November 2010 (UTC)
- Calling them Normal is correct and this will not be changed. Internally the quality for normal/stock items is localized to "Normal", you simply don't see it in game. See http://optf2.com/item/from_schema/1 -- Lagg 01:20, 14 November 2010 (UTC)
What about not used types?
Sorry for my english, but what about "Rare" and "Common" rarity? (http://www.tf2items.com/id/jlesamiz?time=1256873790 ). Will it mention in article? Darmarok 09:22, 14 November 2010 (UTC)
