Yes, that is how it works. I played the koth_event map for maybe an hour, for a message that a gift dropped somewhere on the map, and I ran around with a scout until I found it. Only the player who randomly got the "gift has appeared" message can see and get the gift so it's not a race. I don't know if it expires though if you don't find it after x minutes.

Others can correct me if I am wrong. The Halloween drops/gifts are in the form of presents on the Lakeside Event map. The announcement box will state when a gift has appeared. It will be your job to find and collect it. On Oct 29, 2012 9:39 AM, "Andreas Grimm" <[email protected]> wrote: Hi all, could anyone tell me how that current gift drop system works? A lot of my players complain, that they don't get any gifts. But for a few people it seems to work - I see at least the chat message, that they found something. I tested that for myself and I get only 3-4 gift drop announcements with two computers over nearly the whole weekend. Is that really a designed feature? Am I the only one who got problems with the git drops? - Andreas _______________________________________________ To unsubscribe, edit your list preferences, or view the list archives, please visit: https://list.valvesoftware.com/cgi-bin/mailman/listinfo/hlds _______________________________________________ To unsubscribe, edit your list preferences, or view the list archives, please visit: https://list.valvesoftware.com/cgi-bin/mailman/listinfo/hlds
