I just noticed on steam that this Thursday there will be a free weekend to play Team Fortress on Steam. (http://www.steampowered.com) This is to celebrate the release of, not only the Spy, but the 'Spy vs Sniper update! Valve did this pretty fast, and knowing the other updates, it isn't going to be bad! There is a picture of it, showing the sniper holding a... OMG... a BOW! And the Spy is holding a revolver with a long barrel, that has a picture of a women on it. This is going to be awesome! If you don't have Steam, you should definitely get it, it's an easy way to get games for low prices, and connect with your friends! Feel free to add me: smason Oh, here's a site with a little info on one of the new weapons: http://www.teamfortress.com/sniper_vs_spy/?Narwhal-Spy Discuss!

Sniper: Shield that kills/stuns spy who backstabs you, one use (Machete?) Bow that impales enemies and crits on head (replace submachinegun?) Spy: Play dead (replaces disguse) Unlimited Stealth (Only works when still) Badass revolver (overheats/ slow fire rate) I think that's them isn't it :?

I can't imagine undisguised spies being much use. I.e. the fact that you're not wearing a disguise would get you play-dead'ed, then killed. I liked spy until knife rule changed, now I can't stab from above and it's incredibly difficult to break a defensive line. Angry eyes.

Sniper has Jarate too. xD It'll be funny if that is in the game.

xD It'll be funny if that is in the game. I can assure you sir, it WILL be. Btw, the bow will replace the sniper, and Jarate will most likely replace the machete.

Uhm because X-Fire is a messenger whereas Steam is a Messenger and a way to buy games and get to them anywhere.. it also has the best servers(15000 for most games) and you can download your games at like up to 5 mb/s

30 minutes.... in Valve Time http://developer.valvesoftware.com/wiki/Valve_Time Haha. That is slightly accurate! EDIT: The steam servers just went down for 'scheduled maintenance', this might have to do with the SvS update!

ASDFASDFASDFGHAGh That's what ran into my head just now. IT's FREAKIN OUT! BLASDFADGSDGH Holy hell, my mind has blown. Spies disguised as spies now have a mask over them, and spies disguised as medics now have a random ubercharge! EEEGHHHHHHH Valve, I love you so much. 15%, yo. (if anyone wants to add me, yellowgoblin)

Confirmed, it's out! GO GO GO Steam is Astrosimi, btw.

added you both! Man there are a HECK of a lot of people happy about this update, as the servers are so busy! I can barely start the game! Now I have to wait for it to update!

Downloading, maybe I'll sneak back on the computer after hours to actually play it.... >=D

90%, anyone wanna go raid a 2fort server and go Pyro with me? Together, we shall destroy all these spies and snipers (if we even get through the lasers, knives and whatever they throw at us >.>)

Whoa, with the spies' new spy and medic disguises they're almost worth playing again Now if only I could still spin-stab I'd be a happy camper.

Is everybody here as angry as I am at this update?

Yeeeesssss >:| want to earn weapons naow kthxbai.

Well, I got the Dead Ringer, I've gotta say, its really convincing. Sucks though, you can't cloak, so you'll have to live without it. And Pyros still kill you because the fire reveals you when you get burned (although you take no damage) But, its really convincing. Many times I got out because this guy was chasing me and I bring it out, they don't even bother checking again

My gaming laptop is broken at the moment, so I probably won't be downloading this for another month. IT LOOKS SO AWESOME, THOUGH Also, inb4 everyone in a server plays as spy and sniper. That should be fun.

It's not as bad as you think, Sack-Jake, although it is more than the usual number, I usually don't see more than half a team as sniper or spy. Who here would be interested in a LBPC Steam group? I'd go ahead and make it, but I wanted to get clearance because obviously I'm not making a group if no one's joining.

I'll be busy for the next month but I'll be up for playing over the summer. My steam name is "Billov"

Well, I'll add you! But steam is being evil and not letting me make the group, I'll go try once more tho.

At least it stops people from joining those pointless achievement maps. And its always nice to earn an achievement or get it randomly in a match than cheating......

And its always nice to earn an achievement or get it randomly in a match than cheating...... This new unlock feature does seem a bit weird. I have every weapon for every class except for the classes I can't unlock stuff for or the Sniper and Spy. So if I want, say, the Ambassador, and kill loads of people as a Spy, all that will happen is a random drop, and if that happens, I could just get a second Blautsauger? I will play this soon to test the feature. But it sounds quite stupid.

Yes, Cog, that's how it works, not to mention you might almost never get drops, and in the rare occasions you do, they might be repeats Well, can someone make the group? I can't, don't know why. Btw, Pitcard, when looking for servers, look for the map 'achievement_idle'

CreatenPlay and me were doing TF2 and experimenting with Cloak and Dagger and it needs patching. It seems to be that even when cloak has run out you are still invisible.

Not a glitch, mate, it's designed like that. When you run out of cloack, you are out completely invisible, a ghostly outline of your spy can be seen, until you stand still. In other words, the cloak doesn't deactivate automatically.

Hahah! I got everything (without the milestones, btw), plus I got the Demoman's 'Fro. > I just got the Cloak and Dagger yesterday though, I'm still testing it out and I haven't made any opinion about it yet. Also, I'll add some of you guys EDIT: I'm all up for the LBPC Steam group! (does not necessarily mean TF2, of course!)

In other words, the cloak doesn't deactivate automatically. No you could still move about and everything would act like normal. There wasn't even a ghostly outline until we started to shoot each other and then the effect broke when we recloaked and you saw the red/blu shimmer.

Okay UPDATE! Team Fortress 2 Added Sniper/Spy milestone achievements as an additional way players can get the new unlockables Arena Mode Added tf_arena_use_queue server convar. Turn this on to get the old queue behavior. Default is off Added tf_arena_round_time to set a timelimit on the round Added the userid of the player who built the teleporter to the "player_teleported" event Fixed player killed event causing server crash Fixed Spies not being telefragged when standing on an enemy teleporter exit with the Dead Ringer enabled Fixed attackers seeing the mini-crit particle effect for full crits if the victim has the Jarate effect enabled Fixed the Ambassador not doing damage to buildings Fixed Spies disguised as their own team not drawing blood effects Fixed players killed by flaming arrows not showing the appropriate death icon So they've made it possible to get the weapons through achievements as well as the random ones. This'll mean if you're still somehow not getting the ones you want, you can always achieve them through the milestones. I guess no one can argue with that. Also, has anyone tried the flaming arrows yet??? I haven't, but I'm presuming you just get a pyro to light it? Can someone confirm?

Yeah pyro just lights the arrow with the flamer and away you go! I've now got all spy updates and everything bar the razorback for the sniper,
