No info yet. Just a link to the #100 Golden Wrenches. And a page full of random bits and bobs. There's a picture of the 1890 team, the TFC team, an Abe Lincoln upside down machine, plenty of Australia related stuff.

They're given out randomly when people craft and arent restricted by the drop limit. But no more today I reckon.

Yeah I have no idea what the purpose behind it is. It does seem pretty stupid. Oh well i'm not really bothered.

I'm much more interested to see what's new to spend my time worrying about a cosmeticly different wrench. As cool as it would be to have one obviously.

I want a new video!

afaik the difference is more than cosmetic, don't they change people into golden statues?

That's a cosmetic change to death.

oh right... and golden statues are more than cosmetic?

-.-

i still enjoy watching people get excited over their 'update egghunts' as if it actually yields anything of worth.

So how do the crits work on this next shotgun?

Either way, it seems overpowered as fuck.

Check the blog:

http://teamfortress.com/

New Shotgun, Frontier Justice

- Has 50% smaller magazine
- No random crits
+ For every kill your sentry gets before destruction, you get two crit shots. For every assist, one crit.
+ When your sentry is destroyed (by enemies or self destruction), you receive bonus crits.

Upgrade much?

Knowing when crits are coming would be very OP indeed.

Lucien: Fantasma Parastasie; +1,451|6870

engineer has 125 health
the shotgun, even with crits, has limited range
Sentries rarely get more than a kill or two within a short amount of time
so, close range only + 125 health + limited number of shots is going to end up with a dead suicidal engineer 90% of the time.
