Hats right now are for appearances, this can be found only by random times. Just like when you find weapons. Hats are extremely rare too. The more you play the greater the chance you would get a hat. it Doesn't require you to play a class to get that classes' hat . Its all random hat and random times

Every 15,430 seconds (4 hours, 17 minutes, and 10 seconds) you have a 1.1905% chance to receive a hat. These are the exact values used and is not something that was determined by using data collected from idlers.

That is what Drunken F00l came up with.

They are EXTREMELY rare. If that 1.1905% chance doesn't mean anything to you, It's basically like rolling an 82-sided dice, if you get a 1, you get a hat. Anything else, you wont. It's also not just one hat. There are three for every class. (Click here for a list of all the hats.

Yeah, they are extremely rare and hard to get. I've played about 2 days worth of TF2 since the first hat update and have not received a hat. There are some people who have played for the equivalent of weeks and still not received one.

They're equippable in your loadout, and go in your backpack.

For example, unlockable weapons, such as the Force-A-Nature and the Huntsman, will go in your backpack. To equip them, you go into your character loadout screen and replace the Scatter Gun or Sniper Rifle with them.

There is an extra slot for hats now, and when you find a hat, it's equippable (or removable) through there.

So far, all hats (With the exception of the halo) are class-specific, meaning only one class can wear a certain hat.

That's why he has a "Community Knife" in his backpack.
