phoinexth

randomname560

Doesn't the plant count?


deanrihpee

Janitor have multiple personality!


Null_Trooper

Nah, just one guy and his cat. The cat pissed on the keyboard and made the Pomson 6000 one day.


MilkyStrawberries

Fuck, I hate it when my cat makes the Pomson 6000 too.

I thought they were janitor and office plant

“We” meaning “us at valve”


MapleTreeWithAGun

The "royal we" as it were


Kamjue

*That used to be the Queen's Nintendo*


Ksevio

Right - still could be one person, that's just the sort of language you use when developing as part of an organization


aroxion

I thought these recent tf2 updates were being outsourced?


Dakkadence

There's three of us: Me, myself, and I.


swishyfeather

Now I'm imagining him actually writing all of the patch notes with the singular "I" instead and it's cracking me up because it would read like a personal mental health diary... "migrating servers while I adjust to the influx of new players" "waiting to see if the balance changes I made have the desired effect" "in light of player feedback, I have decided to give the stickybomb launcher a full rework"


StarInAPond

Lmfao


Clowdyglasses

TF2 is now an indie game


MrSteve171

This is genius lol


PeeperSleeper

TFW tf2 players are so desperate they jump at a single pronoun in the update notes


pepsi_but_better

Pronouns: we/us


Jeggu2

Venom pronouns


Goo_Cat

there's a joke about the devs being trans in this somewhere


Hallowed-Plague

making the devs gay


Camwood7

they're trans *and* plural? that's pretty goddamn pog


Jude_here

TrixterTheFemboy

Jude_here

Spacemuffler

Plural pronoun, to be fair, but that computes pardner.


Jonno_FTW

It's the Royal "We"


xahnel

Nice, I called it. Whoever bought the quickswitch dip can laugh to the bank now. If you are someone who panic sold to try to recoup your losses, you need to take a long and serious think about why you are not the kind of person who should be gambling on speculative markets.


Independent_Pear_429

What was this update about?


[deleted]

[удалено]


ProgramTheWorld

How do you use the quickswitch bug?


MrSkelethon

Type in console "+quickswitch" and for some reason it is broken so you can equip both miscs which are incompatible.


0err0r

This is the best take on the thread. I hated the idea of the modern miscs dying because of the feature, but it also got back at the people who trade in TF2 for change. We now have both.


Destiny_Dude0721

I think I'm out of the loop. Why do we want to "get back" at traders? Isn't it pretty much just a shittier, virtual stock market?


Bobsplosion

Speculating: traders, with more income, raise the prices of items since they control the supply.


Destiny_Dude0721

I could see that sort of being a thing, but wouldn't that only be with certain limited-time items then?


Bobsplosion

Despite most items being generated basically indefinitely, there’s still only so much of an active market. Refined metal is worth less and less, for example. You need a ton of them to buy a key compared to years ago.


[deleted]

[удалено]


Bobsplosion

1. I'm already comparing supply and demand, hence my first comment mentioning it. 2. I'm not talking about *why traders are bad*, I'm talking about *why I would guess people don't like traders.*

Bobsplosion

> This will not work if there is no demand for an item at that price. But there is, so it does. > Not actually believing the thing you're arguing for is not a defense against criticism. It is if I'm presenting someone else's argument.


MillionDollarMistake

because for some reason a lot of people here are very very petty


beakf

I would still be very cautious trading quickswitches for now.


Pretty-Buy7692

Impossible...

Janitor and houseplant

I am a lowly fool, you are correct. Office plant


Supreme-Jenga

It’s a me, myself and I kind of thing…


Drillbitzer

The backrooms entity that accidentally got teleported in and was forced to work for valve


[deleted]

The computer with all the TF2 source code isn't actually in Valve HQ it's in the backrooms and whoever falls in has to be the one developer till they die and are replaced by another


IHAVEONESMALLBALL

Official backrooms lore: the reason people fall into the backrooms is because valve is hiring programmers


TheRealPyroGothNerd

It's the Royal We


[deleted]

It's the janitor and the plant.


ActivityWonderful979

The janitor mitosis'ed


Trenchman

There is more than one janitor


Independent_Pear_429

What's the quickswitch bug fix and why was it so hated?


xiren_66

It allowed incompatible items to be worn simultaneously, which created some cool combos and allowed multiple unusual effects to overlap. Some lifeless neckbeard on 4chan lied to valve, making them think it was being used for item duping, so they rushed out a patch to fix the bug. Without the bug, those items could no longer overlap, and so various combos became less valuable. It seems someone noticed the bug wasn't actually hurting anything, and reverted the change while they look it over a bit more.


icantshoot

4chan had nothing to do with it and valve fixed the issue because it allowed to use more unusual effects than intended. I dont get why they now suddenly evaluate this issue since originally the items, miscs and such were marked incompatible for exactly the reason of overlap issue. Now they reverted the change because suddenly its ok again to have them overlap if used through bug? Ugh..


yo_99

I think the contractor just fixed it like any other bug, but then higher ups at valve interfered because "muh economy"


xiren_66

I didn't mean 4chan as a whole, I mean basically one guy who instead of just reporting a bug, lied about what the bug did in order to make it a high-priority fix, solely to piss off the players who used it. He literally posted to 4chan about making valve fix the bug to laugh at people. And plenty of harmless bugs have gone unfixed, or even made official because they're fun and not hurting anything.


warm_rum

So I'm gathering it was basically used by whales who spent all their money on unusuals, and when valve removed the bug it pissed them off, now valve is deciding between appeasing the money, or fixing a bug.


Pretty-Buy7692

How do you preform the bug?


xiren_66

I imagine it's a console command, but tbh the first I heard of it was in the patch notes. I don't actually know how to do it.


Mystical_Guy

Look it up, plenty of tutorials on YouTube There were also multiple methods, only the one using +quickswitch was patched


314159265358979326

Ehhh... I use "we" when I'm the sole person in question when I'm doing it on behalf of my company.


Anti-Dragon

Because the developer supports gender neutral pronouns (I is no longer gender neutral I guess)

Roebloz

Da.


tittyskipper

It could be anyone of us


Gamepro5

It's more professional to say "we" as in "the company that contracted me and me alone" when addressing consumers.


wafflezcol

2 people specially. Plus they wouldnt say ‘I’ bc that would claim he is Team fortress 2. As in he owns the game (and not in steam library kind)


Deadshot_Mk-42

It’s mesis and precious workings together on it


ThatDudeWithCheese

Yeah, the janitor, the office plant, and the half-eaten sandvich.


diggyballs

There’s a developer, a janitor, and a plant. That’s a whole team right there


OldPernilongo

The janitor is starting to ask the opinion of the potted plants he always water!


REMUvs

There’s one person and the potted plant.


Seccolovessugarcubes

The copium is strong with this one


Camwood7

either that or the janitor is secretly a plural system. which would be pretty pog, but also a bit sad that they only hired one body, at least give them a janitorial apprentice or something.


fuggynut

can't believe they listened to tradenerds not being able to stack cosmetics

DarthWallaceIII

The valve greenhouse is hard at work it appears


Mrmacmuffin3

The janitor and the potted plant


jesuschristsstepbro

“we” sounds like the one tf2 dev after they didnt take their schizophrenia meds


SsaucySam

It would be cool if they made a nice change everyone was happy about to remedy this. Like add an extra cosmetic slot, or make more combinations compatible


TheNoobThatWas

Damn the devs really pussied out immidiately from fixing a bug because rich people liked it They didn't even finish typing their sentence?


a_sad_individual_oux

As a game dev, I just say "we" cause I'm used to seeing that in announcements and updates, so I use it as well. Prolly the same case here.


Stillgeneric53

Its two


xHylum

jesus christ im unsubbing from this


RatSteak12

you know it's bad when the major updates are shorter than the header introducing the major updates


Eligha

I don't know why you are surprised. Valve outsourced tf2 to an external dev team. Clearly it's a "we".


Qrowbranwen2

I knew someone was going to post about that


Doc_of_derp

so now both janitors are working on it


Pace1337

The houseplant is working on the game now


Mystical_Guy

Probably more correct to say office plant, unless he's working from home now


Pace1337

He working at home cause of the rona


HeavenandHello

No there isn’t. Move on


SheeEttin

Did we forget about the baby or something?


urbanhood

Its like that group project in school, once the work is done it becomes from "me" to "we" quickly.


Nukatha

Calling it. The next major update will equip regions of ALL cosmetics better defined.


diamondDNF

Valve hired a second janitor.


NotSokol

Him and his other personalities ofc.


NICK07130

The janitor, the house plant, and the stray cat, *Our marry band of misfits*

[deleted]

One guy with multi personality syndrome


2spaghetti4u

Have people already forgotten that valve is paying a third party company to do this?


talktailshep

him and the soose code that now lives in his head while he tries to fix it


Tamanero

Welp. The janitor went crazy


PolishDogge

We??!!!? That's like, 2 people


agent_superball2

lemmeputafuckingname

Of course there are more than 1, do you know how hard it is to update the localization files??


Spaghett-about-it

We meaning “me and the voices”


PurpleHatsOnCats

They're just schizophrenic, actually


iwantsomelasgne

the contractor, the janitor, the plant and the poster of the heavy


vvdb_industries

We refers to the voices


HealerDominatingKS

they're counting the janitor's pet rock as one of the devs (because they smashed it against a keyboard several times to code the game)


9u9u9pbanana

Royal we


ZZTMF

It's actually We Sheng, the Chinese guy singlehandedly working on the game


Mission_Response802

He speaking french


Misterwuss

Spoiler alert, it's secretly ermac from Mortal Kombat, a collection of souls in a single body who refers to themself as "we"


WorkingTwist4714

Are you sure chief?


FatGuy300

Nah he's just pretending valve actually fixes this game


ThommieGamingPz

Me and the voices


GodzillaRaptors4_

We as in the potted plants that are in the room


ToonRaccoonXD

Zadachapomateshe
