Salted Cashews Posted October 19, 2020 Share Posted October 19, 2020 I mean, it's not like they're spooky or creepy or anything like the other scream fortress hats, they just seem like normal cosmetics. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
hyro Posted October 19, 2020 Share Posted October 19, 2020 For the past 2 years its a big mess with what is halloween restricted and what isn't. Bird heads are quite old and at the time they were really outstanding from the non-halloween ones but now its like whatever Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Lʌyer Posted October 19, 2020 Share Posted October 19, 2020 ^ , old halloween cosmetics are restricted and the new one are free from restriction probably because it would not be profitable anymore . Devs simply abandoned the idea of the whole restriction and they cannot change it (they can but it would be one big mess cause there are tons of old hats from halloween) thats why they left it unchanged Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
uchimatan Posted October 19, 2020 Share Posted October 19, 2020 They still release halloween restricted cosmetics, which you get as bonus drops from halloween cases, and many of these new restricted cosmetics are again animal related ones.

FP jh34ghu43gu Posted October 19, 2020 Share Posted October 19, 2020 Halloween restricted was for items that made your hitbox maybe seem larger than it actually was iirc. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Flamadin Posted October 19, 2020 Share Posted October 19, 2020 The mercs are supposed to be identifiable from profile only from pretty far away, when playing TF2 seriously. The bird heads are all giant blobs from far away, but then again almost no one plays TF2 seriously now. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
MFB Goobie Posted October 19, 2020 Share Posted October 19, 2020 All (read 'most') complete head replacers are Halloween restricted, as they could cause newer players to be confused about what merc they're shooting at. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
