I was spy, I came up behind a sniper wearing a razorback, I slashed air to remove my disguise then tauntkilled him from behind... The sniper bitched about it. Apparently I was hacking by managing a "backstab" through the razorback and was threatened with a ban from a server admin.  When I said I was not hacking, and explained what I did, they claimed I was exploiting instead by using my taunt to ignore the razorback.  I think I'll wait til my usual servers get an empty slot instead of going to some other random server now.

Point: Servers are full and it's hard to get into the good ones with more people playing due to both the update and the free weekend.  Many of these servers are full of people that think the razorback is supposed to make them completely immune to the spy.

Course, personal points is what matters most!

Not anymore. Personal unlocks are all that matters now.

[Yanlin]

My unlock penis is bigger than yours.

[Eviltyphoon]

Well, I finally got one of the new unlocks: the dead ringer!! 

[umiman]

I actually removed all of my achievements so I could achieve them again. I actually like using them as a sign that I did something cool.

So I managed to get 2 of the new unlocks, the ambassador and the Huntsman. Both seem somewhat useless, the ambassador allows me critical hits on headshots but to be frank it's just too difficult to get headshots in the kind of situation a spy findshimself using a revolver. It has some use if you use your disguise + cloak to get somewhere enemies won't expect you but that's not very likely so the revolver is by far better in normal play. The Huntsman on the other hand is a complete downgrade it has a shorter range less damage and is much more difficult to aim with a minor fire speed increase being the only advantage (although if you are good with a sniper rifle you can get off headshot kills faster by not waiting for full charge) Whats worse is a headshot is no longer a garunteed kill, I headshotted a heavy and then got mowed down as I was too suprised to react. Also we can remove achievements now? Including the milestones? Because If so I'm just going to stock up on sandmans in preperation for the trading upgrade.

Whine whine whine...

The TF2 forum is also all whine whine whine.

Type type type.


Typeity typeity type.


Boo-hoo.

[Ampersand]

The sniper rifle never guaranteed a kill on headshot. Just critical damage. A Heavy can survive under certain circumstances. Anyway, I disagree. The huntsman rocks. It's not intended to be a sniping weapon, but a mid-range weapon. I get a ton of kills with it.

Mmm... the smell of burning bodies is always fun. I think I'm getting very good as a pyro. Either that or because of the free weekend, lots of newbies are around to burn. Lots and lots of easily detected spies.

 Alright, some important lessons I'm learning from my many failures:
 Distance control. If the enemy is not in my killzone, act like they are a sniper.
 Sniper avoidance. Move like a madman and don't jump terribly often.
 Know when I'm in over my head. Better to leave alive and find a health kit than die in a blaze of glory.
 Jarate. Always a good idea.

Speaking of newbies... I was in a server earlier... There was a TF2 newbie... He was a CSS veteran... Damn... he ruled... Yes, I was shocked and then I put an arrow through his head.

The sniper rifle never guaranteed a kill on headshot.

Yes it did... A fully charged headshot dealt 450 damage.

He was talking about non-charged headshots.
