Anyone else craft 4 of those burnt items together yet?

 

What comes out of the Ash Pile anyway?

 

As far as I know you get a Scorched Crate or a Pyromania weapon.

[Yellow Diamond 7,569]

I got a Lollichop and Captain's Cocktails out of my two Ash Piles.

[Evilshy 5,090]

Man, now I have to start playing again...

I just wish they would sort out the item system issues that happen after every major update. There's really no excuse, when you think about it. They're a massive corporation, they can afford to upgrade a server, especially considering the profits their store brings, and and that nobody can purchase anything when the item system is down.

Valve is a bit slow on the uptake when it comes to handling massive updates.

Well, yeah, but think about it.

 

There are MMORPGs where a server handles inventories, player stats, locations, monster spawns, NPC locations, NPC shop inventories, player shop systems, and hundreds of other tasks, yet don't become erratic after every update.

 

Team Fortress 2's item server, which handles items, one thing, fails frequently after every major update.

 

Valve's a huge corporation with a massive grip on the PC gaming industry, much larger than a MMORPG company. They can afford to improve the item system server, they just refuse to.

Just got one of those stupid Scorched Crates.

 

If anyone wants it, just add me on Steam and I'll give it to you.

 

I just don't want it to go to waste, since I will not be opening it.

So I bought 4 charred keys.

Unboxed in this order:

Strange Rainblower

Idea Tube

Strange Lollichop

Parrot

 

Unwrapped a gift: Ballonicorn

 

I am simply:

[Street Comedy 327]

So I was pubstomping on Doomsday with my new strange Rainblower, but it didn't show any kill count, is this a bug or what?

Doomsday has only been out two days and people are already pubstomping?

It's not that hard if you play on servers where everyone is a braindead idiot.

Oh okay, that explains it.

[Jozzeh 125]

Rook was nice and gave me another crate, which I unboxed another strange rainblower..

 

THE STRANGE RAINBLOWERS HAS BEEN DOUBLED!

[Ron Jeremy 2,032]

Guys..... guys...

 

I opened my first two crates today. I'm not going to spoil it. Watch the video. Just do it.

That's... that's...

Winning.

 

You lucky Pyro.

 

Call me Grape because I am jelly.

[Jozzeh 125]

Holy pony. O_O

JUST A PROTIP: ALL OF THESE THINGS WILL MOST LIKELY BECOME 1 SCRAP IN MAYBE A FEW WEEKS OR SO. IT HAPPENED WITH THE UBER UPDATE, SO I BET IT'LL HAPPEN AGAIN.

 

P.S. TODAY IS ALL CAPS DAY- aww wait, the day is over.

Not the Strange weapons or any of the cosmetic items...Even the crates will be worth something someday.

Well, I meant the regular weapons. Of course the Cosmetic items will stay valuable, but how will the Pyrovision Goggles do? They seem like they'll be a Ghastly Gibus, but there's no annual event that happens to upgrade it.

The crates disappear on the 11th.

[Chigens and Kay 3,832]

The crates disappear on the 11th.

 

I know.

 

People put the crates on an Alt account and never play on them again.

 

I've seen people selling the Christmas crates still on TF2 Warehouse.

Ah, good point, forgot you could do that.

*raises arms above head, roses thrown at me*

 

Thank you, thank you. It really surprised me to see that pop up. I actually spoke aloud and everything. I'm debating opening more crates, going for stranges. I'll only do a maximum of two more, though. I don't want to become one of those key addicts. http://mlpforums.com/public/style_emoticons/default/dry.png

Agreed, crate-opening is generally a bad habit, only open when you really don't mind what you can get from a box.
