[COLOR=‘Red’]===SPOILER BELOW!===[/SIZE]
I thought the hat will be found somewhere near the beginning in the game and that I’ll have to transport it all the way through the game like the garden gnome in EP2, but it’s located in crate in Lambda Core chapter. This would be much better and fun if we had to transport it ALL THE WAY, not just 5% of the game…
steam release MAY have something for you.
Hmm… that sounds enigmatic. You mean more achievements? :brow:

You know what, would be cool if instead of having that purple hat, you find the ghastly gibus of TF2.
I don’t know if it’s possible, legal stuff etc…

It’s unfair, you’re teasing us!
Please…faster!
the hat can be found in multiple places, i came across it twice
What about, say the area when you get knocked out? Unless they had some work around where it spawn there, an entire playthrough keeping an object with you wouldn’t be possible.
I’d certainly be interested in it if they manage it, though. Little Rocket-Man was bullshit but it was a nice challenge.
Aren’t they both in Lambda Core, though?
The second one is in one of the teleportation rooms in 247 puzzle (where you meet 2 scientists and a bodyguard) around some metal shelves over there. This hat looks identical to the first one, but you can’t unlock achievement with it.
Well, even if the hat is found in multiple places, it would defeat the purpose of traveling with it through the whole game because you can just find it later.
If it were placed towards the beginning of the game, maybe they could have some kind of code such that if the hat is in the room with you when you’re knocked out, it will spawn near you in the garbage dump.
True, i came across it twice as well… the first time i was dragging it along with me until suddenly when im back in the room it disappeared! i got frustrated… later on i saw it again… tried sending it through portal, it wouldn’t go…
*so tempted to point out where they are 
*
I have yet to find even ONE! I fail as a tester. 
SPOILER:
Big storage room with assassins before entering the Lambda complex.
:s noopydance: Thanks! I may need to attempt this achievement now!
I carried it nearly to the end and I was blown up or something and the Hat was nowhere in sight so i had to continue without it uggh.
I hated the part when i was carrying thrugh the portals, it was a hell. And the worst part: i cant get achievements since some days ago, it says (you must be logged to steam to view or gain achievements) but im logged to steam wtf.
Reminds me of the gnome from HL2: Ep2
I did it but I noclipped to the exit of the teleporter puzzle.
I can complete it without the hat no problem, but after dropping it about 20 times on the 1st platform and getting as far as 2nd platform once with the hat, 19 times without, I gave up.
I achieved it without noclipping. It is insanely difficult and frustrating to get the hat to the top of the teleporter.
What i did was enter the portals strafing and the hat close to the floor so it coudnt go flying so easyly but it was a pain anyways. When Steam version goes out i will use that save , to not go through that hell again. The hat teleporting issue was more anoying than the falling-from-the-car-gnome in EP2.
Just finished a game, ye. Anyway, I took both hats along. There is proof:
Anyway figuring out how and getting them both through all those teleporters wasn`t that easy as it looks.
You guys are casuals, I took the picture on Ram’s desk from QE to the end of the game.
This better be an achievement in the steam version.
