I don't care what anyone says, this is the greatest item in the game If you weren't there, you didn't get it, and that's it, you're fucked forever unless you invent a time machine
I don't even have those items, I bought the game on release and got a gay hat and a gayer angel halo for not duping when I could have and made bank 10 years later.
>>714432417 any hat you could get from free drops is worth pennies at best, assuming you can find someone to pay real money instead of metal in the first place
>>714432417 I never bought into the whole hat economy, so I exclusively wear those two hats - was just about to post this bad boy but you beat me to it.
>>714431819 I hadn't played TF2 in a couple years, but logging in one day and I was prompted with a pop up for that event. I got a medal, continued to not play TF2 post-2009, and sold it for 15 bucks a couple of years ago.
>>714432417 nvm found it, says 2009 even though I bought it at release with my brother, Achives are messed up and says I unlocked them at 12 AM though probably because I had no played in years before that item.
>>714435292 I always bummed around on some achievement server with the tiny_huge map shooting shit with the regulars. Part of me regrets it because I ruined my stats with ridiculous numbers, but the rest of me doesn't care about tf2 stats anyway.
>>714431819 >you're fucked forever unless you invent a time machine you can buy them off the market if you really wanted to. I've considered buying one because I was at work during the update and missed my chance to get one, but it wouldn't be the same.
>>714435292 UK mlp server back in 2011-2012 called My Little Mercenaries, had so many good memories and made so many good friends, no other server could fill that void, i sometimes go on the /mlp/ server but it's just not the same
>>714432417 >>714432623 i remember when the halo came out and all the servers i played on had a mod that replaced it with the word FAG above your head, good fucking times
honestly they should have stopped giving out the badges like 10 years ago and moved the hire date to the proof of purchase mercenary badge has no meaning
