With TF2 going free to play, and the pyro skin requiring to own TF2, does this mean you can get the Pyro skin for free now or is there something else you need to do to get it?

Apologies if this has been brought up in other threads but I'm new to the KF forums and the search didn't bring up anything.

Actually, you can still get the skins. I didn't own TF2 prior to the Free to Play era and I still have them now.

Those that bought TF2 get a premium accoun and have access to everything.

Those that didn't, have limited servers, limited items *Very small backpack* and some other things.

Tbh, I'm just mad that what was supposed to be a Promotion, now everyone's got it. Wish they'd do that with the Character from The Ball huh?

Stupid Pyro. (The TF2 char, not the model TWI made.)

I honestly feel that TF2 is an awful game, both when you had to pay for it and when it was free. However, to Valve's defense, TF2 was so much better when it was released. They then took everything good about the game, deleted it and inserted all useless items and overcrowding the user interface.

Again, with the *****ing.
Here's how it works.
When you buy a game, you sign a contract you're never shown. It's called "Common sense". The contract states:
"If at any time, the game were to be removed from shelves, service, made free o play, or it's servers removed, I will not be a whiny ***** about it and I understand that buying anything has a risk and that I was never guaranteed anything but the intellectual property I paid for."
I bought TF2 for 20 bucks. Next day it went on sale for 5. I didn't complain.
I paid full price for KF. Next week? 7.50.
I understand the risks going in, and will not complain when things don't go my way.
Think about how the people who bought All Points Bulletin felt? They had 2 weeks before it went offline, and it recently got brought back as a F2P title.
