Talk:Point and Shoot

Reference

Point and Shoot may rather be reference to a kind of game and/or play-style that is typical of older fantasy-based games. I don't think a camera makes much sense as a reference to the hat's name. Should it be changed? RetroBlue 18:19, 16 November 2011 (PST)

Don't think so, pretty sure you're talking about "Point and Click". ^^ — Zhnigo 18:31, 16 November 2011 (PST)

I'd guess that it's a reference to how the wizard in Trine (and probably Trine 2) shoots things by pointing at them with the mouse and clicking. —Wevah 19:04, 16 November 2011 (PST)

Except he doesn't shoot. — Zhnigo 19:21, 16 November 2011 (PST)

Surely, a wizard has some projectile spells in his arsenal. Kardia Munr 20:59, 16 November 2011 (PST)

Well, him NOT having any projectiles is a sort of a runnig gag through the game, at least the first one. I seriously wonder why didn't the devs call this hat "Point and Click", it would've made much more sense. ^^ — Zhnigo 21:43, 16 November 2011 (PST)

It's probably just some sort of joke at Valve that made them giggle with whoever developed Trine. Kardia Munr 23:17, 16 November 2011 (PST)

You're right; he doesn't. My memory failed me! —Wevah 23:36, 16 November 2011 (PST)

So we have a coined phrase which describes a type of a camera and doesn't really belong here, but what about the description, which actually says to stick it in someone's eye (point) and run like hell (shoot)? Or am I overinterpreting? I actually see a similar relationship in War Head... Arracht 10:52, 22 November 2011 (PST)

Given out yet?

Anyone received this and the War Head yet? Pre-ordered earlier today, still nothing. Gonna be a repeat of Saint's Row 3 pre-order bonuses, I assume. 404: User Not Found ^(talk) 03:39, 18 November 2011 (PST)

In Saints Row 3's case, people only started receiving their promos once the items were displayed on the Store page. Since Trine 2 has said nothing about their items, no-one has them yet. Once Trine 2 posts about their items, that's when people are gonna start receiving them. I imagine this is the same for every game. Just wait a while, and the items will turn up sooner or later. Kardia Munr 06:55, 18 November 2011 (PST)

Alrighty, I'm just itching to get these items and complete my collection of Genuine items, minus the ETF2L medals of course. 404: User Not Found ^(talk) 08:44, 18 November 2011 (PST)

Aaaand they've been given out. Just got mine about half an hour ago. 404: User Not Found ^(talk) 11:23, 18 November 2011 (PST)

Hey, I collect Genuines too! Good to see another collector out there. Kardia Munr 15:27, 18 November 2011 (PST)

Paintable Talk?

Is there any talk that this will become paintable? I understand that this is in no way relating to editing the article, but I would just like to know, if someone would please enlighten me.--Awesome Weegee 13:47, 14 February 2012 (PST)

• It's possible if there is enough demand for it. However it usually takes a month or so. Even still, some hats remain unpaintable such as the Big Chief --Upgrade 13:53, 14 February 2012 (PST)

Bug

I would like to report a bug I just discovered with this hat. http://steamcommunity.com/id/Taser9001/screenshot/596971542907757787 Look carefully at the Demoman. That is actually a Spy disguised as me. However, if you look carefully, you can still see the Spy's Point and Shoot coming through my Glengarry. Taser9001 07:18, 27 May 2012 (PDT)

Was wondering if this was worth mentioning? Taser9001 07:20, 27 May 2012 (PDT)

Images

Can we get some better images for this? Especially Engineer, who appears to be choking. Thanks. — The preceding unsigned comment was added by Dank Memer (talk) • (contribs)

Sure. I can do these if you wish, but only when I get time to do all-classes on the gallery. Also, be careful to not remove other content from the page, I re-added it back and made your discussion with the title "Images", and sign your stuff with ~~~~ ▪ - 20:14, 7 June 2015 (PDT)
