Charge your shots fully if its a Heavy? And always aim for the Medic first.

I am officially confused. Was the sniper update just a ruse so they could throw the Spy update into the limelight in an epic fashion? Otherwise, we'd see the sniper achievements too, right?

They are updating the sniper as well, i guess they are releasing the snipers achievements with the kukri replacement. Still 3 days yet, if there are any custom maps then these are the possibilities for the days

 

1. kukri replacement+achievements

 

2. knife and pistol replacements

 

3. custom maps

Man whoever writes the blog for TF2 is awesome.

 

 

 

As many of you know, the Meet the Spy video was leaked this weekend. Some of you on the forum have wondered if Valve leaked it on purpose. And until we find the clown who did leak it, the answer to that is yes.

 

 

 

Others of you have started a petition to stop Valve from firing anyone over the leak. Once again, this just goes to show you how valuable customer feedback is to uswe hadn't even thought of doing that, but once you see it there in print, it's a fantastic idea. I've been asking people all morning who was responsible and come up empty. But now that I've started firing people, they can't name names fast enough. So far I've got sixty-seven names in the "suspicious" category, fifteen in "very suspicious", and another forty-three I'd been wanting to fire anyway.

 

 

 

I'll keep you posted as I track down the culprit. Rest assured, though: Until I find the person responsible, I vow that Valve will stop work on all projects.

 

 

 

Valve's head of HR, Kathy, just came to talk to me. I'd been lining up employees in a row against the wall so I could run past and fire them faster.

 

 

 

"You're fired you're fired you're fired you're fired oh hi, Kathy. What's up?"

 

 

 

"I'm a little concerned that you're mistreating your authority." I nodded, then reminded her that we'd talked about her using smaller words.

 

 

 

"We think you've gone mad with power," she said, talking slowly and using her hands. That's when I knew: She was in on it. Best not to take any chances, I thought, as I reached for my firing stick.

 

 

 

I've been working through the staff in alphabetical order. So far I'm up to the L's. I told Marc Laidlaw I had a book in my office I wanted him to see. I didn't tell him the name of that book: Marc Laidlaw, You Are Fired, by Robin Walker.

 

 

 

 

"Alden, you have three seconds to tell me why you're fired."

 

"Wait, what? I"

 

"You're fired."

 

 

 

"You wanted to see me, Robin?"

 

"Yes, Greg. What's the difference between you and you're fired?"

 

"I what?"

 

"Clean out your desk, Greg."

 

 

 

"Yeah, Robin?"

 

"Ah, come in, Matt. How's the family?"

 

"Oh. Uh, good. What's this ab"

 

"Top drawer. How about your little boy? He getting better at the ol' soccer?"

 

"Football. No, not really."

 

"Do you think he'd be any good at cleaning out your desk by five?"

 

"I "

 

"Because you're fired."

 

 

 

"Laidlaw, it says here you're a writer. Well, let me tell YOU a story. Once upon a time you were fired. Then you cleaned out your desk by five."

 

 

 

"You wanted to see me, Robin?"

 

"Eric. I'd like you to clean your desk."

 

"I sure, sir."

 

"Outbyfive."

 

"Out by...?"

 

"Why! Oh! Why-Oh-You! Oh-You-Are-Eee! You're Fired!"

 

 

 

 

So awesome. :lol:

It's faster if you just scope in twice and headshot them twice, rather than charging up. Although a heavy w/o a medic only needs 75% headshot to kill, it's still faster to snapshoot them.

Ambassador looks cool too bad im going away from thursday night til monday night :cry:

So the ambassador is almost like a sniper rifle for the spy? That is pretty cool.

That's not a gun. That's hand artillery.

or i could save you the time and tell you its me

I think I'm getting a littler better at sniping again. One game I had 10+ more kills then deaths when I usually have a 1:1 or a little over 1:1 ratio (due to stupid spys and better snipers.)

Sniping is really fun when you start to get into a groove. It's even better when that groove allows you to headshot cloaked spies XD.

OMG The Sniper upd....*Gets backstabbed* Spy update!

 

I fell like that when i saw the spy update, c'mon im a pretty good sniper why gave my worst enemies the update 1st!

 

 

 

Well time to understand the spies mind we going to get spammed by them...

They are updating both the spy and the sniper at the same time. Probably for the reason you said, not wanting to give snipers an anti spy weapon without giving the spy a new weapon or two to keep it balanced.

We'll I hope so or i'll just change to pyro.

So jarate looks pretty cool. The 35% damage might need to be reduced a bit, but i wont hate it until i see it in the game(which wont be til monday, going away for memorial day :|)

But it's a jar of piss. Seriously.

Do it. Throw it at someone then try and head shot them.

After hearing about that guy dying in Qld because a deck chair hit the window of his office in a highrise building (was during a storm, he was looking out at the storm and the winds blew a deckchair into the window and the glass killed him) I think I should just use the jar to headshot them. :lol:

The announcement for the Jarate link is just great. I wish I was near someone when they first saw that. I would gladly put it over their grave. :lol:
