It's too late, I already backstabbed you.

Guesses on achievement weapons? I'm thinking tranq gun.

Tranq Gun. Magnetic Sapper. Garotte Wire. Wut?

Kind of a one trick pony eh Batman? Throw in some vulgarities and we got a good A+ Post.

maybe a grappling hook, or the ability to feign death... I'm really hoping for the later of the two, it would be glorious and old school. They might do something interesting with cloaking also, the spy is rather unique in most respects... We'll see!

Cheeseomlett · « **Reply #5 on:** March 16, 2009, 07:26:41 pm »

There is some reason why the feign death cant work in TF2. I cant think of the reason atm. Band-Aide explained it to me but i cant remember what it was.

Client side calculated rag dolls makes it undoable.

Well, so long as you don't do the flying across the level death, reanimating wouldn't be [i:xv9ostjq]impossible[/i:xv9ostjq], just unlikely... I would still love to see that happen. YOU CAN'T CRUSH MY DREAMS!

something which is flame resistant.

think about it. Simple, useful, and would work very awsomely. maybe a flame resistant something instead of the revolver, to not make this too overpowered.

Instead of the knife, im thinking something that the moment you get one backstab (a proper one, no sidestabs), your next few shots will all eb quickslashes, and they count as backsabs unless the target is completely facing you. However, after these slashes, you cannot claok or disguise for some time. Myabe instead, make a knife that makes it so that it's a backstab if the backstab animation comes up, no matter if he's facing you or not when the hit lands.

Instead of the sapper, a self-destruct bomb. The bomb works by killing you instantly, and has the same effect as two demoman stickies. Hurts both enemies and teammates. has a 3 second countdown in which the number appears above your head and changes each second. If you get killed before the time is up, you die and noting else happens. The counter is so that spies cant just go into a large group and kill everyone.

None of your ideas are as awesome as a grappling hook.

safibn · « **Reply #12 on:** March 22, 2009, 04:04:00 pm »

or a ninja star.

that would be more epic than a pirate hat

Martyrdom from Call of Duty 4. If you know what I mean by that then you will automatically not like this idea.

No offense Safibn. It's a valid idea from a developer standpoint, but this would just be too RAGE inducing.

safibn · « **Reply #16 on:** March 23, 2009, 08:28:25 pm »

smitty, that would be so epic and so overpowered.

pipes, its not that bad, people get enough warning time, and its very easy to kill a spy, if you've ever played TF2....you would know...

That may be so, but who would stay near a spy that's not cloaked? Most proficient players would back-pedal and let him have it. Can he be disguised and self-destruct? (Wouldn't really help though with the giant countdown above the head). And it's very rare that there are large groups of players in an area at once for that to be too effective. I see what you mean there with the counter above the head and everything, I just don't see a practical use for the technique.

But you've got some good ideas nonetheless. I know I certainly don't have any good ideas for the Spy. But I personally don't like that class much.

R-Tard · « **Reply #18 on:** March 25, 2009, 04:36:18 pm »

I liked the grenades in TFC that the spy could throw what would make people trip balls. They should put that in.
Grappling hook is a cool old school idea. Feign death never worked, and would work even less TF2.
Maybe a tranq gun, but that would sort of suck.

in b4 balls touch

and i approve of tranq gun....
grappling hook is cool but what would u trade it for?
a sapper that was way harder to remover, but never destroys gun
a sapper that u cannot spam but u can fire from your pistol (maybe a 5 shot magazine)
disguise as items(dispenser, teleporter, sapped sentrys etc.) <-- this may be more useful post engineer update...
the ability to sprint say 3 steps, with a cool down so u can stab the medics, and pyros.
smoke grenades that are functional/ or acid trip tear gas grenades.
a sapper that is slower but the explosion causes damage to area enemies

ball in your court

and id like to not be able to see other spys names floating around....

chrisinajar · « **Reply #22 on:** April 05, 2009, 01:14:53 pm »

how about nerfing everything, but when you talk with the mic you don't get that fucking (!) above your head... That drives me completely insane, it's like... Here spy! Now you don't get to be social!

Drake · « **Reply #23 on:** April 05, 2009, 02:45:10 pm »

I think I am one of the the biggest advocates for 'These updates have made my class too noob friendly'

difficulty of spy has greatly decreased.
