i don't think that the idea for this hat really works since propeller hats are very silly looking and therefore don't work with spys character. i have to agree with the people who said that this hat would look good if it was just the beret

man, can these people really not find any more interesting about the spy then his weapons? he has other stuff! like a fucking personallity!

real talk tho, its pretty lazy as there are other hats that arent the beret that spy looks good wearing.

truly the weapon to surpass metal gear

Well, there has to be a balance between wacky, and down-right nonsensical for the class it is being created for. In the case of a simple beret for spy, which hasn't been done quite as much as you would think, it's perfectly fine to just remove the knife and have a nice vanilla cosmetic that can allow for much more customization in outfit sets.

well it's hard!
the main idea was a version of a propeller cap but for spy

it's hard to come up with new ideas when there's already so much that's been made.

i do understand what u all are saying, yea it's wacky but idk

i thought the idea was great

I would LOVE this hat... IF it didn't have the knife on top. See, what I realize a lot of workshop creators try these days is to take a completely normal, fitting hat, and then turn it into something it really shouldn't be. It's like if you took Scout's old baseball helmet, and then smacked a giant propeller on top, or took one of Soldier's helmets and turned it into fruit. Why not just have a perfectly fine and dandy beret cosmetic? Really, what I'm asking for here is the mindset behind making these unnecessary and frankly comical choices when developing items on this workshop.

I hear you, I get your attempt, but no.
Putting a knife on the top of the beret like a wind rooster is not a buyer

Not a fan of it. Personally I think the idea is a bit weird.

Man it feels like beating a dead horse but im gonna put my input on this. It's dumb, and not TF2's dumb, spy wouldnt wear a beret with a knife on top of it, because he wouldnt wear a propeller hat in the first place, making it a beret and putting a knife on its its just dumb and random, wich people are really tired of these days, even as a beret, theres already lots of berets in the game, and this one isnt really well modeled either (in regards to the other berets, i know 3d modeling is hard and i couldnt do something like these, at least just yet) and this hat just doesnt work, its ugly, doesnt fit the game in the sense that doesnt fit the class, because its too wacky and dumb, and not the good wacky and dumb we are used to in tf2.

I’m not the biggest fan of it either, but I do think a lot of people are missing the point that the knife is supposed to be like a propeller beanie, which is a pretty neat idea. It’s not just a random object on his head.

We should probably limit what we say here to things that are constructively critical about the item.

I like the part where it spins.

the hat is mediocre. "spy backstabs, so put knife on head!" is a shallow concept, and the execution is poor. it just doesn't look good. an example of poor concept, poor execution. As someone said below, if it was just the beret, it would have been fine

i smell bait, 1/10

Is this like... the spy version of the pyro's beanie?

The modelling and physics is nice, but.. I don't get it. Like yeah, Spy backstabs, but I don't know why he'd put a knife on a beret. It kinda just confuses me.

if it was just the beret itself, it would be fine. but the whole "put random object that fits the class on their head" stuff is just getting old. if the beret was styled around the knifes textures (lets say as a 2nd style) it would be unique. but puting the knife on what could have been a simple and ok hat just ruins it.

Are you planning on saving TF2 by flooding it with hats with random shit thrown on it that nobody will use?
GoEatATowel 30 May, 2022 @ 6:23pm 
Extra note: The base beret would also be a nice addition due to the other beret cosmetic, the all class "Viva La France" is a nice beret that's unfortunately tied to a pair of glasses and a beard. If you could make this its own beret, that would give players a lot more breathing room with making loadouts without having to be restricted by the facial aspects of the "Viva La France"
GoEatATowel 30 May, 2022 @ 6:19pm 
I think this one is a bit too random. I think beanies are always fun, and it's modeled and rigged pretty well, however again I think it is too random and would be something most players would trade up for something else, and or craft with another item to make a new one.
However, the core concept if the item is what I would want to work with. If I were to make a decision on how to improve this, it would be as simple as removing the bobbing knife part, improving some of the beret detail (more defined edges, better textures, etc), and releasing the hat as a more relaxed, different looking version than the Frenchman's Beret, which looks like this:

I think you have the capabilities to improve this somewhat, and I would like to see what you can do with the mindset of making this something players would want to put on a contemporary loadout. Keep up the hard work.

Are you planning to #SaveTF2 through your needless workshop comments?
