Statues and Bullet Crops and Lava Weapons, oh my!

The items themselves look pretty neat. I hope they are tradable

They'll be craftable after Rifts gets released, which means the weapons probably have some tweaks beyond norm (aka not reskins).

Looks like the official wiki already has some info on the new weapons. The axe sets people on fire, and the sun stick hurts people on fire and buildings more than normal.

I'm not really digging the style of the new weapons, even if they do look badass. At least the Iron Curtain looked appropriate for the game. These though... Where's Saxton Hale to punch the Rifts programmers?

I think all style went out the window as soon as Demopan was realized

*prays for a vanilla button*

One day, Valve will realize people don't want to see all this shit, and will just let me remove non official items from the game completely with the touch of a button. One day.

That wouldn't be too bad actually sekh. I've hated the majority of the items they've released after the engie update. I admit I love the degreaser but I would gladly give it up if it would also mean getting rid of all the other dumb shit that's been put into the game recently.

Bullet Crops was originally a very ambitious theme/map project made by a small European group, out of France I think. Like many things, excitement and participation surged at first, then gradually dwindled to near nothing. Rather than scrap everything, the members decided to release all of their material to the community.

The mapping community is hoping they release the unfinished map sources so they can be finished. Some of the released WIP pics from the maps were quite stunning.

Its a pity that Valve only brought attention to them -after- they nearly vanished from the scene.

Is it actually bad I bought RIFT? >>

I enjoyed the Beta heh.

TBH the rift preorder weapons are useless outside of medieval mode.

Edit: Planned to make some tool where you can ban certain hats from your game. Right now you have to do that manually with editing a script file, or installing a premade scripts that removes all of em.

What do we do with this code if we don't want it and are not getting Rift?
