TF2 Glitches: What Went Wrong?

in 2015 there came a glitch with the gun mettle update that allowed you to craft achievement and stock items. This means that when trying to craft a spy melee weapon, you could get a black rose or when crafting an engineer secondary, you could get a crafted stock pistol or the lugermorph (all in unique quality of course). Unfortunately i was a free to play back in the day and couldn't craft much, but one momento i still have from that glitch is a self-crafted non-tradable stock bat for scout.

When the Cheater's Lament was introduced, the only way for them to display text was by making a temporary placeholder item to be displayed before/over the cheater's Lament item. TL;DR person logged in and then out before getting cheater's Lament, still has placeholder in backpack. To quote the wiki: "When players viewed their backpacks after receiving the cheater's Lament on September 2nd, 2009, the following message was displayed: "Congratulations! Your honesty has been rewarded with a new hat!" The message did not appear, however, when the item was awarded to the community during the Mann-Conomy Update."

[@FiddleGibbons]

I don't know the specifics, but there used to be a glitch that allowed you to put unusually long descriptions and names on items. Great video by the way! And stellar editing!

[@22burnsie]

The only glitched items I’ve definitely seen in game have been a single painted cow mangler, and it twisted my brain to read that item card a few times. And very recently I saw whatever player “has FOUND: Scattergun”. Not Redeemed, it said he FOUND a Scattergun from a drop. There were several of us in chat that were freaking out and the guy who found it didn’t get what the hype was about.

[@wojtekpolska1013]

I apprieciate that Valve didnt just delete all these items, allowing them to be rare collectioner items. They are like the golden wrenches, but even rarer. also very useful for the economy, since TF2 is very big into trading (its basically super expensive collective item) (yes they removed the gate bot hats, but i kinda agree with that since there were a lot of them created, and not just a few. but they still gave these peoples something in return)

The upgrade to premium item thing is a placeholder item you get automatically when you purchase something on the mannco store for the first time. It's listed as map stamp because as far as I know you can't have map stamps in your backpack it's just a way to support Devs so that item works in a same way, don't know how it occurred probably something like an item server error. Also it's listed as not craftable because that was the base quality of items from the mannco store since ~2015, nowadays all the new items released on the store just stay craftable and unique but the only ones that benefit from this are the new taunts and the prinny items the rest still come out as dirty quality

in terms of the initial section about incorrect meta values, it may have been worth also mentioning the strange normals (grey text, "stock" quality color as opposed to the yellow uniques.) that came from gun mettle in 2015 and the actually fully fixed unique unusuals that came from the same bug in halloween 2016 that spawned the strange uniques. the latter case is i think especially interesting since it is as far as i'm aware, the only time valve has outright not allowed a glitched item type to continue existing. The strange normals and uniques also have special attributes, normals don't show in killcams and uniques can't have name and description tags removed iirc.

[@DouglasDaWolf]

Hey, I'm an item collector myself, and I have a few of these, including the coveted Collector's Specialized Killstreak Concheror (Manndarin), as well as a vintage specialized killstreak level 0 ubersaw, and a unique pda. I also have some fairly rare items as well, hit me up if you want some pics of them or something!

[@KayEfEl]

Here's a fun lil glitch nobody's mentioned yet. In the very beginning of Jungle Inferno, all the war paints went from Civilian grade to Commando grade in their respective collections. Not just with the free ones you get from contracts, but the ones you could unbox from cases as well. I unboxed a macaw masked unusual and found it was freelance grade. If I had unboxed one of a lower grade, I could've put a stat-clock on it and gotten an easy strange unusual. (Which is what some people did)

[@Freakever2000]

Also items can actually come in 256 different levels. Theres the standart level 1-100 with a few glitched level 0 exceptions for regular items, aswell as level 101 - 255 + rare level 0 drops in Mann up mode. Whenever u complete a tour in Mann up, your botkiller / killstreak kit or even australium, has the level of the tour number u got it on. This works all the way till tour 255. After 255, the level of the item doesnt reset to 1, but instead goes to level 0 first. This is why there are a couple of level 0 australiums in existance (and possibly more in the future)

[@Wee_Laddie]

I managed to grab a blank Specialised Killstreak Kit one time, so I shoved it on a Collector's Sticky Jumper. It shows the killstreak sheen as intended, unlike most other glitched killstreak loadout items your class can hold in-game!

[@Freakever2000]

There are 2 types of "normal tradeable bats". The level 0 ones, which came into existance as u described correctly, aswell as a level 1 version that came with a glitch in the stockpile crate programming. U could enter certain keywords into the "loot generator" text field and end up with a stockpile crate containing a "bat" as one of the 4 possible outcomes of unboxing it. Thats how the level 1 bats were created. The glitch was patched, a few of those glitched stockpile crates still exist however. In case u wanna see them, i have one in my inventory as i once bought a normal bat and wanted to see how it came into existance. "Black Rain" found said glitch back then, and gave me one of the crates as a gift.

[@wojtekpolska1013]

Another use for the universal killing streaks - they can be applied to Rocket Jumper and Sticky Jumper. I know it gives the rocket jumper the shiny effect ( -tho idk bout sticky jumper cuz i never saw one- _someone else in comments said they have the effect working on sticky jumper_ ) You can usually get kills with it to get the quality, tho some servers with modified stats allow that. But you get the shine anyway so that cool

[@Jokerman9540]

Players used to be able to equip cosmetics that clipped together before Valve patched most of it. Afterwards players used to also be able to equipped/clip items together by lagging themself's while changing cosmetics, but that was also later patched. Nowadays if a player never changed those slots then they still have those clipped cosmetics equipped together. I have a loadout on Pyro with Person in the Iron Mask, Pop-eyes, and Tower Pillar of hats. It's an ugly set, but to my knowledge I'm the only person that can/has all those specific items equipped. I don't know of anyone else that has something like this that survived the unequipping script kiddies, but if anyone else has a glitched/clipped set in 2021 I'd love to see it.

I’m a big glitch collector I’m glad to see this being covered. Just a bit sad you didn’t cover the tradable community sparkle lugermorphs.

[@Casperr]

I did see them in my research and what lead me to leave them out was that some people suggested they might not *necessarily* be glitched. Because they were apparently given to the devs from Sam & Max and were (one of?) the first community sparkle items ever, it's possible that Valve gave these out with the intended attributes (tradability) before they'd really established the concept of community sparkle items not being tradeable. Didn't seem concrete either way though, so I didn't want to speculate about it in the video just in case

[@czfclone6929]

Casperr ah I see. They are technically glitched though as the other self made Sam and max items with community sparkle remain self made like the Max’s severed heads, but upon items turning vintage team fortress devs accidentally turned all Lugers including the community sparkle ones vintage which is why they are vintage despite having the community effect. It’s really interesting stuff. Still my top item in my personal collection.

The guy was playing with a friend who also played Pyro but, with item servers going down, the Second Pyro was stuck with Stock. The first pyro, who had on the Phlog, used a kill bind in spawn to drop his Phlog for his friend. When the second pyro picked it up, they also triggered the locker, the game lagged for a second, and the second Pyro had the phlog.. but it could Air blast. The pyros had no idea how it happened and couldn't replicate the glitch but it was some amazing chaos for a bit.

I'm a simple man, I see video about shiny objects with the Sam and Max Office theme, I like.

Would also like to make one correction with the blank Killstreaks being glitched killstreak Spellbooks, no idea if the sheen is present on them mainly due to how small the item is and their limited time use but they do in fact track kills and thus can get killstreaks

That's a very cool little detail, thanks for sharing! :D

One of these days, I will pay someone several thousand dollars for a painted cow mangler.

[@MonkeySquirts1]

Can't remember his name but I met one of the owners in a popular unusual trading server. It was the Balaclavas are Forever version. Maybe you can find him again sometime if you're actually willing lol

[@REEEEEESEE]

Dude I saw that you haven’t uploaded in awhile so I sub literally yesterday and now you upload lmao

[@Casperr]

You have the power

"your only new reward will just be a shiny new empty backpack slot." Me: hey, anyone up for a shiny new empty backpack slot. For you only dear customer, the price will be 20k dollarinos. A straight up steal in today's markets, you know you want this backpack slot. I'd be willing to bet your mother on this going out to a higher paying person tomorrow if you don't get it today.

Yeah I tried to get some of the old achievement hats that I deleted a few years ago when I was younger and they told me they couldn't restore them

[@VACKinator]

for 48 hours after jungle inferno released wears other than factory new could drop of the dragon slayer warpaint, this was unintended and patched later so it's only skin where a factory new is worthless and battlescarred is ACTUALLY stupid rare. What makes this even funnier is I have a field tested dragons fury and have seen well worn in game and the damage mapping for the skin is fine so I have no idea why they fixed it.

[@Ickie71]

The one with the Bonk Cans was pretty mind-blowing!

[@magos_matthias8691]

Dunno if it exactly counts as a glitch but I've got a Strange Specialized Killstreak Kukri whose texture never renders in the backpack, the loadout screen, or in the inspect menu.

[@Zanophane_Gaming]

You have heard of soundsmiths (or lazy purples idk i forgot) killstreak rocket jumper right?

[@cw4106]

Before the 2021 Scream Fortresses update, you can use a name/description tag to a construction PDA or a sapper and then restore the item to obtain a glitched Unique Version of them

I was lucky back in the day to get for a cheap a Strange Unique Shovel. Got it Prof KS and made the name tag 3+ lines blank text and I've had it ever since and love this item.

[@skLaszlo]

It's not as cool as some others, but I have a Dragon Slayer Rocket Launcher that's Field-Tested instead of Factory New. The war paint was supposed to always be FN, and about a day or so later I was given a FN dragon slayer war paint by customer support. I also have a Strange Unique Shovel :D

[@NightmareLyra]

I remember the Cow Mangler thing and regret not painting mine while I had the chance, oh well
