HOLY SH*T!!! AWESOME!!!

[LASD]

She'll be inconsolable? Okay, they just busted out with a whole load of conspiracies.

I wonder too if the Sniper things are for real, I'd bet on the Huntsman, but I'm not totally convinced with the Razorback.

EDIT: Don't have a screenshot, but I saw the she too.

Likewise.

Oh yeah, and they just changed the quote on the blog post.  D:  It now says "Pyro's going to be inconsolable now."

But yeah, female pyro was the thing I meant when I said "called it".

[Techhead]

A: Pyro's a girl.
B: Not one but TWO alternatives to the watch.
C: Stupid, stupid sniper.

[Sowelu]

B: Not one but TWO alternatives to the watch.

How do you know one of them doesn't replace the revolver?  (edit: nah, they do both say 'spy watch')

Though I think both options are good in themselves.  "Fake die when you get hit" is totally the best feign EVER.

I'm betting that the Cloak and Dagger has a smaller battery while moving, so you can't sneak past enemy lines nearly as well.  And I'm betting that the Dead Ringer doesn't let you cloak normally.

Man, the Steam forums are being killed SO hard...

[Duke 2.0]

A: They know the theories of Pyro being a girl. They will never reveal it now.
B: This might just lead up to the next sniper item, which deals with exactly what just happened.
C: I'm personally lookin' at that beard camera. Finally, we can capture footage of dwarven mating rituals.

Woah, I only now got the gist of day 3&4, the spy was using the new Dead Ringer watch (hence the dead spy on the ground.) Awesome, clever and cool, this is by far the best TF2 update (page, at least)

EDIT: Also, haha, they pushed back the update day by 3 to 5/21/09.

Where do you see a release date?

On the blog page, downright: "Major Updates"

EDIT3:

It's a quote! From the FUTURE

It is, I used my scientific future-prediction skills.

Actually, no wait, there it is.  It's listed in "Major Updates" now.

I swear I've played on a server with something similar to the dead ringer watch, while cloaked you could use the fire button to create a fake corpse for a chunk of charge. Main problem I'm seeing with the dead ringer watch is no death announcement. My eyes always flicker up there when I kill someone so I personally am unlikely to be fooled.

Spy's sapping my Razorback -bzzzz *dead* or is he?

I suspect that the dead ringer will create a death announcement.  Might not give you points though.

If they're really sneaky, it'll give you a point, but take it away after a while.

What I'd really like is--if you are disguised as a FRIENDLY (not enemy) class, the fake corpse is of that class.  So in highlander matches (exactly 1 of each class), you can make them think they just killed your demoman or something.

If the razorback is real, then it should be possible to sap it. Thus breaking it.

Would that not defeat the purpose? Admittedly, you'd know there was a spy in the room, but all that would do would be to make it tiresome for both spy and sniper.
