I think most of us have wizened up to recognize it's the average price, not the solid value.

How much do you want for the Allies Extinguished part?

EDIT: I should also put up my Backpack. 4 crates :: 1 scrap, 1 weapon :: 1 scrap, Solt Token :: 1 scrap. If you're interested, send a friend request to that creepy purple unicorn.

EDIT EDIT: So I got a Silver Botkiller Flamethrower. If anyone wants it, I'll accept a different Silver Botkiller weapon in exchange (preferably Minigun.)

If we're posting backpacks, my rather spartan 1st page is up for trade (Also, does anyone else here sort their backpack beyond just trades? A lot of people's I view are a complete mess)

Also, should I just trash any of those crates (That are from particularly bad cycles or just aren't popular)?

I sort by loadout slot, then by class, so I end up with it grouped sort of like this:

All class stuff
Scout stuff (primaries, secondaries, melees, hats)
Soldier stuff (primaries, secondaries, melees, hats)
Pyro stuff (primaries, secondaries, melees, hats)
Demo stuff (primaries, secondaries, melees, hats)
Heavy stuff (primaries, secondaries, melees, hats)
Medic stuff (primaries, secondaries, melees, hats)
Sniper stuff (primaries, secondaries, melees, hats)
Engineer stuff (primaries, secondaries, melees, hats)
Spy stuff (primaries, secondaries, melees, hats)

I don't know why it doesn't really follow the class select pattern.

I used to sort my backpack by hand, but it got really time-consuming that I just let the game sort it by Class. I don't think sorting it by loadout slot then class changes the result.

I have so many items now, I just sorted into 10 columns, with a class token or class paper bag, and put them in roughly according to their release.

http://tf2b.com/tf2/Polytonic

I'm going to need a backpack expander soon, if they come out with any more soldier items.



Edit: O.o So I just opened TF2 and discovered I got duplicates of the Genuine Foppish Physician and Distinguished Rogue. Anyways, I've got a bunch of these Total War items that I have little interest in keeping.

Like a ref, or I'll add for a craft hat.

If you can get bulk crates, you can sometimes find a buyer.


Also for people who still actually play hat fortress 2:

Possibly free to people of GitP.

I keep my backpack pretty well organised. If I ever got all the items each class can get then I'd struggle, but for my meager offerings it works :D

Also I guess stuff on the fifth page is up for trade since they're spares, scrap, and crates.

After running full Assault for the longest time, I finally switched to Sharpshooter when I ran into the Level 88 gate. At which point I realized that the M308 is made for that mission. (Well, that, Green Bridge, and Undercover counter-sniping.) While the Brenner and Mk 11 excel in the tight corridors common to most missions, the long, open sightlines (and/or high sniper count) of those three levels beg for the 308's godly accuracy, especially after unlocking the reflex sight at Sharpshooter 31.

Bonus: trigger-mashing the M308's high-damage semiautomatic fire is probably the third-fastest way to take down Bulldozers solo, behind trigger-mashing the Bronco .44 and one-shotting them with trip mines.

It's a coop vs (highly intelligent) AI RTS/4X hybrid. It is absolutely amazing and has hundreds of hours of gameplay in it. Every "game" of AI War is a procedural generated campaign where YOU make the strategic decisions, and they matter. They matter a ton. Few games offer you the kind of thinking AI War has.

The developers (a two man studio) are awesome and have been continuously updating the game since 2009. The game just hit version 6.0 as of last week. And wow has there been a lot of changes.

Sure, it may not look like SoaSE, but find me another game where you can smash fleets of 10,000 ships into each other.

I didn't think so.

AI War has been in my top three games of all time since release for a very, very good reason.

Even with my 100+ hours of AI War I actually have not managed to beat a game of it. The AI is just that great at kicking my butt.

I am currently trying to change that.

I have little to no cosmetic items, so I might be interested to trade.

That awesome feeling during MvM when a robot destroys your sentry and you have thirty revenge crits. edit: Which is then counter-acted with the sasd ralization that most of the people playing advanced in boot camp can't get past the first wave.
