Yay 3 new hats for us to add to em

[Phantom Trout]

It's about time the Heavy got a bowler he can wear. He's obviously the most sophisticated out of all of the classes.

[Auradragon]

Lemme guess... the hats are:
Two Hats on top of each other
Three Hats on top of each other
Four hats on top of each other

That will be awesome to see XD can anyone get a vid or pics?

[QuaintHazard]

Piles of hats? Amazing.
I wonder how rare they'll be though compared to the rest.

[Pwnacus Maximus]

What does Gorge need a forwarded blu spawn for?

I would assume it's because that, unless you've got an offensive engie base setup and properly defended, it's a very long walk to the second point only to die to whatever defenses they've got up.

That actually means that they can not be destroyed in the air, the demo can still explode them in the air, but the enemy can not destroy them until they hit a surface.

By the way, the 2nd largest gentlemannely hatte pile is made of winnage. the third one looks 'tarded with that silly boater.

[Heartlesskev]

eh.
love the hats equally

but i hate the idea that a class specific hat can now craft these hats.

i mean take the spy hats
2 which gave you 1/2 chance that you get what you want
now with 3 new hats
1/5...
and for the rest is 1/6
so idk, i guess it just increased the odds of getting a hat you don`t really want, less you aren`t picky and jsut want any hat.
i mean i would be pissed if a class specific hat came to be the 3rd place winner hat :/
IMO at least.

[Phosphatide]

The name "Modest Pile of Hat" amuses me.
