to save billions
Tyler Murphy
I hope this caused significant financial ruin to someone out there.
Easton Jones
I really cannot care less about how much money traders lost, everyone now has an affordable unusual or two and now everyone is equal.
Cameron Bennett
I don't :(
William Torres
>Activate it
Brody Morales
can soneone give me a quick rundown on this? Between sadpanda being memed out of existence and this I ain't got time to keep up with all of it
Asher Parker
OP here, we got 2 tragedies today
>Yea Forums tragedy
"otaku" library DELET, everything gathered for the past 5 years lost to the dust of time
>Yea Forums "tragedy"
we could open unusual with 100% rate in some crates, traders went ETERNAL apeshit and seethe due to this, valve is "trying" to stabilise situation but to be honest no one knows for shit what the're gonna do, here's the options
>BAN those who exploited it
would cause a massive butthurt across tf2 communicity and maybe other games causing to riot and bamboozle Steam, epic games
>DELET all uncrated unusuals
same as ban
>BACKPACK LOCK uncrated unusuals
this would kill the game entriely, traders panic selled everything,but oh look at this, its all goin to be good, but the only thing that went shit was that panic sell, this would cause massive shitstorm
>INVENTORY ROLLBACK
not a chance for this, they need to give the money back too, which bad goys dont deserve. nevertheless, valve is at SHIT point, all they can do is damage control. EPIC is probably rubbing their hands now
Jaxon Howard
>EPIC is probably rubbing their hands now
They’re probably taking notes on how to make a quick buck while still not implementing a cart feature
Joseph Sanchez
Thanks for the extensive reply, everything is much clearer now. Shit sure is fucked aint it
Jason Garcia
Inventory Rollback is fine, they just restore all steam funds added in the past 24 hours that were not spent on actual games.
David Campbell
U GOT HAT
Daniel Cox
Can I play TF2 now or are the servers down while the situation tries to unfuck itself?
Blake Barnes
...
Elijah Martin
Who gives a fuck about traders? They wasted their time on fake items, a worse decision that shitcoins
Jack Price
Servers are up, trading is down.
Zachary Reyes
Not a trader but I own several unusuals pre-boogalo. Doesn't bother me really even if the price went down since I got them to wear not to sell.
If anyone was trying to cash out their shit though they're fucked.
Isaiah Foster
>still can't unbox anything
All I wanted was an Unusual hat for the Heavy.
Alexander Baker
>inventory rollback is fine
>they just restore all steam funds added in the past 24 hours
so lemme get this straight
>CHAOS CONTROL one day back
>All the money spent is back in your paypal / steam wallet
what happends if you cashed out money from unusuals tho ?
Robert Rivera
get that floppy helm with the mask , its for 3-4 euro right nao
Julian Fisher
They would have to do a complete reset so nothing gets in the cracks. They would just make it wallet funds rather than refunding Paypal since they technically don't lose money. It'd have to be across ALL games too.
Lincoln Jenkins
Refunding steam funds without refunding them to cash is a PR nightmare at best and that assumes that it isn't somehow a legal quandry given that people bought keys under specific circumstances.
He isn't getting shit unless Valve's solution is to literally do nothing which could happen.
The more likely logical move would be trade-locking the unusuals unboxed today.
Dominic Hill
the items I had on the market are marked as sold without the wallet funds.
Looks like they're rolling back.
Grayson Hughes
There's probably something in TOS that money added to a steam wallet can't be refunded. Reverting it to wallet funds at least has the argument of giving the money back in some form. If they removed the unusuals without refunding, there'd just be mass chargebacks from people.
Dylan Stewart
>Refunding steam funds without refunding them to cash is a PR nightmare at best and that assumes that it isn't somehow a legal quandry given that people bought keys under specific circumstances
so they're in a fucked situation anyway, i wonder what they're gonna do... oh man, got an thought, what if they do an "event" where you give your unusual that you dropped on that day and that day only, and you get a special hat or someshit ?
Jackson Jenkins
>some dumb hat everyone can have
>a flashy version of a hat I already like
oh wow, such a hard decision user
