Jester hat - easter egg

[mmalta]

So there is a jester hat in game, team17 said it is very special and that is used as an easter egg.. so has anyone found it? i think you might get it on a certain date in year, but what date would that be? what do you think? Hat looks awesome and it would be great for my team :D
So if anyone knows how to get it or have an idea or thought how to get it, post here. :)
thanks

Yeah there's a way to get it easily. Where did you get this info tho?

[Djoszee]

Why did you make a thread about easter eggs, while there was one already....

[mmalta]

I know there is another thread, but this is thread about known and specific easter egg - jester hat, and i was asking how to get it, and you could help, and not asking why another thread :s

[Cathulhu]

Maybe on April Fools' Day. Just a guess of mine.

on team17 page on facebook

[simum]

[Zetalot]

Hi, I've done all achivements this monday, and It's not easter egg for sure.

[Pino]

This got me curious, couldn't find anything on facebook.

Team17 Software Ltd. Don't worry, the jester hat is in the game. It's very special and is used as an Easter egg.

FFFFFFF still no idea how D:

[jrolson]

Ive finished the campain and changed my system clock to Aprils 1st and havent gotten the Jester hat yet...

Guess I will keep looking...

[bonz]

Ive finished the campain
I still have missions 34 and 35 to finish, so I couldn't say for sure.
changed my system clock to Aprils 1st and havent gotten the Jester hat yet...
This maybe doesn't work, as the game logs onto the Steam servers on launch and may be getting the real date.

[AngeloG]

Ok, I was wrong about doing it "easily".

[mmalta]

so any info on a hat yet?

[simum]

still no news?

[shinno]

I have noticed that in one of the official screens there's another hat that is not present in the game.

Your link is broken! Badly, too! You probably forgot that if a forum shortens links by replacing the middle with "..." you can't copy-paste the link text.

That one is the Alien Breed hat, which was available with 5 other exclusive hats for pre-orders.

FYI, I did not count those 6 pre-order hats.
Still 18 hats to go. :D

Well,I have preordered and I have thos 6 hats, but the one I posted seems pretty different to me (it's taller, it cover the worm's eyes and it has a jaw).However I have to admit that they look similar, maybe it was an earlier version of the one available in the pre-order bonus.
If that is the case then still 18 to go :)

Why does it look so different, then?

Although yea, it seems to be pretty much it:

if that's the case then yes, stil 18 to go ;)

[OldWorms1]

According to BillT17 on the Worms Reloaded Steam forum, there only for the holidays & will be unavailable again a few days after the holiday is over....

[WormyKoopa]

They now have a hat for remembrance day.

[Thurbo]

A Team17 hat...

Wonder if today's Team17's day of foundation?

http://i597.photobucket.com/albums/tt52/Thurbo1/Team17.png?t=1291556025

[Plasma]

Yeah, something like that. I can't remember what date exactly, but I do know it's their 20th anniversary this month.

[WormyKoopa]

Im liking this new update I saw, ironically after playing tf2...

Let's say, these are not really easter eggs, since this stuff will stay forever!

Oh yea, some christmassy easter eggs:

I prefer the Santa Claus hat in Battle Islands, by the way :p

I prefer that grey helmet, and too bad it doesn't allow multiple items! Combined with those dark shades, my worms would look somewhat like my avatar character :p

also gotta check out those new Christmas hats.

I wanna make my team wear voodoo masks and artillery helmets and let them carry rockets at the back. Wonder how THAT would look like :cool:

No, seriously, I wanna use multiple accessories on my worms! Really no chance Battle Islands could be fixed (together with the soundtracks on the Wii)?

I have picked up all (I think so...) extra hats in this album (http://www.facebook.com/media/set/?set=a.217463201611536.60798.217435538280969)
I update it...:cool:

[spacebug]

Nice collection of hat pictures, thanks for that :)
