We can pretend it was a team effort.

TF2 finally has some backstory.

Also guard doggy in portrait!

That's a lot of information that Valve released at once... it's very unlike them! :laugh:

But who is the person in the last part of the will and who is that person on the far right of the photo? I'm guessing they're the same person, but who is that person? Ah, we can only guess.

^ My frame rate just dies. Usually, it's at least above 100, but it drops down to 10 FPS. (on the event map)

 

[Sharpe]

Just got both hats. The Paper bag one is different for all classes.

:O. Those 2 guys in the Red Suit and Blu Suit could be...The spies. It's a guess.

 

[acefisher1]

Gotta say... This is an awesome community map and the update overall is amazing. I had a blast tonight playing with everyone and I absolutely love the halloween stuff, its my favorite time of the year

Got all the achievements too! Its nice to have a couple hats to wear, especially since I haven't found any of the normal ones yet.

 

[CatKicka]

Oh man, I had a blast playing tonight. I always love Halloween events. And now I have hats that I actually earned, instead of one I got for not playing for 6 months. :w00t:

They are the heads of Red and Blu companies, read the letter.

 

[xXracecarXx]

This was an awesome event. I gotta say, I had a blast as well. But I don't want gravelpit to be taken away from me for koth halloween *crys*
