Description youtu.be/czBz7Q38hXc

The Island Update was the best fan community update of all time. None of the items that were featured in it were accepted into TF2, though mods still exist out there to be used and abused. Case-in-point: there are many pineapples that were used in this SFM, as well as tacky plastic flower leis and coconut bras - you know, bullshit tourist trash where tourists can't tell the difference between ote'a and hula.

Thank you! The Fempyro originally started off as some sort of home luau birthday party princess but eventually she went into the role of local while Engie took over the role of tourist. The Manpyros were added after.

There's some more info about them + the design process here: uberchain.tumblr.com/post/1382…

We really need a Pineapple in TF2. And SFM as well. Never thought I'd see Engy dance like that. X))

Will I perhaps be seeing a pineapple on the SFM Workshop in the future then?

Well, if these mods end up in the game, most likely.

It's been quite a few years and these items you've seen in the Island Update haven't been re-submitted in VPK form to the workshop. Some of them have been deleted as well. I'd say the chances are slim at this rate.

Detonatress In reply to uberchain [2016-01-29 12:17:57 +0000 UTC]

Dang... well, maybe I'll try to make a pineapple eventually. So far I've made a few everyday items and a corn cob.

Yeah, it's a real shame that so many awesome fan updates don't get any recognition from Valve. Like the Medieval Update, Fancy vs. Nasty Update (actually wait, that one got plenty of recognition) and Especially the Nights Of the Living Updates. Heck, even weirder updates like the Guard Dog Update or Mechanical Engineer Update had incredibly unique and original concepts.
Seriously, it's a huge shame that updates with such interesting formats get unnoticed and all the content is left gathering dust...

uberchain In reply to Dafuqer7 [2016-01-29 03:40:51 +0000 UTC]

What could be happening is an oversaturation of content in TF2, which actually bogs down how well the game is able to run. This means Valve has to pace out their updates a little more while figuring out workarounds to the limitations of the Source engine since they're not porting TF2 to Source 2 anytime yet. I miss a lot of the fan community updates, that being said. I know a few people who have made showcases for the workshop as of late like the Workshop of Horrors & Workshop Wonderland.

Dafuqer7 In reply to uberchain [2016-01-29 10:37:38 +0000 UTC]

Indeed. Still, I wonder what selection process does Valve use to pick out the items for the updates, because last time I checked, a LOT of people bitched about how they "picked the worst hats" or something.

Then again, that isn't very surprising. The TF2 community bitches literally about every single update that gets released, and I've noticed that goes as far back as the Sniper Vs. Spy Update (and maybe even farther)
