So with the new hats,

[Noise]

does that just increase your chances even more or is the .1% the same? :|

 

[Escher]

last I heard it was actually .05% of getting a hat each minute.

 

[Noise]

Oh, wow.

 

[Escher]

So, If I understand it correctly, if you play for 100 minutes theoretically you should get 5 hats.

 

[Thereven]

No, your math is off.
0.05% chance means if you play for 2,000 minutes you'll get one hat on average.

 

[Noise]

do you mean just over time or playing 2,000 minutes in a day or 2?

 

[Thereven]

Over time. So for every 33 and a third hours you play, you should have found one hat. Unless you're unlucky. If you're lucky, you'll have found more than one by then.

 

[Noise]

Wow, I Played much longer then that and not one hat, :|

 

[Thereven]

Then you're either unlucky or the drop rate is lower than 0.05%.

 

[Deja]

I'm in the same boat.

 

[Goretex]

I'm in the same boat.

deja i have 4 hats now

 

[Noise]

Does It have to be with one clase or all together?

For instance If I play a long time with the pyro could I get the spy beard/Hat?

 

[Cheongshim]

what exactly do the hats do other than look cool?

Hats add +100 to awesomeness.

My Awesomeness needs a few more points, I really do need a hat.

The drop rate is .5%, but it has a separate drop timer, of at least 45 minutes, so you should statistically get a hat around every 150 hours. But, assuming that they use the same chance for that you actually get any drop (15% chance), it brings it up to around 1200 hours, or 50 days.

 

[Poison STANG!!]

Yeah i got the Mining Light early on, but nothing since. I'm hoping for another soon.

Wow.

 

[Sir]

The way it works is that you have a 50% or so chance of receiving ANY item every 25 minutes.

Futhermore, you have a .05% chance of receiving a hat when you get a drop.

 

[Noise]

Does anyone else notice how so many people recieve items at the end of rounds?
