So can I keep the first unusual I unboxed or can I freely choose the one I want to have which is then tradeable and get a refund on the other ones/ have them trade-locked? I suck at reading comprehension at the moment.

So, it's mostly people who had bots to buy unusuals at "low" prices that got fucked or what?

So didn't unbox any. But I bought 3 hats from the store. I bought a hat for 5 bucks that is selling now for 115 bucks. How am I affected?

What do they mean with refund? Is it key + price of the crate or the key alone?

now we have to wait another week to find this out

The way I understand it, you can only ask for a refund if you opened the crate yourself, not if you bought an unusual directly.

Absolutely, people who opened a fuckton of crates got off scot fucking free, and a bunch of auto traders got absolutely fucking reamed.
This is literally the best possible outcome. It literally explicitly only negatively affected tradefags.

The first hat you bought will be tradeable on the market, the other 2 will be tradelocked but still wearable. You can get your steambucks you paid for those two back if you want (exactly what you paid, not the current market price) or you can keep them.

I haven't touched this game in 4 years does anyone can explain me wtf is happening?

People talked about a lawsuit if they just removed the hats or didnt offer a refund. They did the most sensible thing and everyone but tradeniggers is happy

This is what I kept saying all along and why I knew nobody would be "punished." Retards on Yea Forums assume "noooooooooooooo everybody who opened a crate that day KNEW what they were doing," but crates really are being opened all of the time by oblivious people who don't know the current state of affairs and you can't label them as "EXPLOITERS"

When is My first hat going to be tradable? I bought 3 and none are tradable.

>Jill was playing interdimensional chess to dab on tradelords
He was based and redpilled this entire time.

I am more than willing to bet this is just to spite that fucker who made the fake Steam Support image about them getting tradebanned.

When does it go into effect? All mine still are the same. And the first one is also still the same non tradeable and non marketable.

NONE OF MY UNUSUALS ARE TRADABLE

We will see how the market reacts once it is all sorted out. They said it's about a month worth of unusuals that were unboxed. Hard to say how much the price of those hats will drop.

Isn't this just Valve basically rewarding everyone for gaming the system and cock-punching everyone who either took a honest route or didn't know about it at all?

I've never actually seen a company handle something like this well. In the beginning of old school runescape, where they saw the few holiday rares in the game were going for hundreds in $$$ on the first halloween, they opted to just drop shit everywhere forever making holiday "rares" worthless, and distributing more every single holiday.

have you seen how keys tanked? and that shit was a single day. This one however was even bigger so who knows

didn't get a hat cuz I think Unusual effects are ugly imo but im happy that the tradies are getting btfo

Based gaben.
Now for fucks sake please make some sort of statement on what is and is not allowed on steam.

Sounds like the least legally devastating scenario, but it remains that a ton of people got a shitload of rare hats for a drastically lower price they get to keep, and they may no longer want to buy any ever again.

Financially, it remains a disaster for people that trade in digital hats, and the commission Valve takes from that, only the average player won.

I got that hat with "dead presidents" and the potential for joke names has me froze

well unusuals are worth about as much as a key now so theres that

>greedy fuckheads who just drove up the price of the key and based the value of a hat with a glorified broken particle effect on artificial scarcity are anyone to respect
Nah, fuck off. I hope the key price tanks as well because of this.

Got 15 of them, one of my all classes will be tradable and in edition there were trade trannies on firepowered crying about how one of their sources said the others were still marketable, TRADEFAGS BTFO FOREVER!

what they have done is a fair compromise. People did spend money for the key and crates, Valve made the error.

You can keep them all, but only the first one will be tradable.
Valve's economics advisor has earned his keep once again.

Sold 7 crates and unboxed 2 unusuals, should have unboxed more but better than nothing

Haven't played the game in years but glad to see tradefags got btfo.

Gotta give Valve credit, pretty good way of handling it. I think this is pretty fair.
Plus it still fucks tradefags just a bit and thats always a win.

There is no flow of incoming new players, everyone who got a hat is everyone who will ever be there for the rest of all time. There is no need to buy anything ever again if you got an unusual.

I bought a hat on the market first, the sold it again at a better price.
then i got my unusual hat.
will this unusual hat be tradeable? and marketable? or nothing?
i'm happy in any case.

Just sue Valve? They changed the item after you bought it.

>50k+ players
>dead

are you trolling?

I dont think you realize how big this is
Thousands of new unusuals suddenly injected into the market will bring the prices down

Tons of people got tons of unusuals, there will be less demand because people already got their unusuals

Traders will try to sell them off to recoup some loses which will continously bring the price down

Much smaller events completely killed the market of several tf2 items like buds, bills or refined

What about the unusuals bought? Do those become tradable?

The price will drop once the update happens, not now. Dummy

Scout update was when the quality started to decline for me, but F2P / Mannconomy were what made me leave the game and never come back. What I wouldn't give for Valve to have just left the game alone after the Heavy Update, those were the best times for the game. The only problem with the game at that time was the Natascha being shit, everything else was perfect.

What exactly caused the drop-off of buds and bills though?

This would be better if she were frowning.

Stripper degradation is the best kind of stripper fetish.

honestly this was the best way to deal with the situation. they made a mistake, owned up to it, but didnt punish the playerbase for their mistakes. good on you valve.

It's fun but it's a lot different from CS. Just keep in the mind the default settings suck ass, and most qol options are off by default. Also some classes like Soldier or Demoman use projectile weapons
If you do I suggest playing on Payload maps to get familiar with it. CTF maps are cancer because of how easy they are to stalemate so most people go there to TDM instead.
Stock weapons are generally the best, unlockable weapons are good for different playstyles or utility. Scout, Heavy, and Sniper would be good if you're coming from CS, Soldier is a good way to get used to projectile weapons.

I fucking love it when someone just snaps.

If it was the first unusual you got from this mess, otherwise no but you can get a full refund from Valve.

so if you opened multiple unusuals, and sold all but one, valve has a trade log and will only make the first (opened) one tradeable?
So I saddled myself with an untrableable unusual? still tradefags BTFO i can't remember if the one I kept was the first I opened or last.
