Yay! They're going to overhaul spy disguises! Scout update coming soon! Other awesome stuff!

Whoop whoop! Thank god about the sentries. I was tired of firing rockets from my secret little blind spots.

Thanks Riftoff I probably would have missed that! Lots of awesome info!!

Good article.

Not liking what I'm hearing about making spies more likely to whoop my ass. I have worked very hard to hone me spy detecting skills and now they're just going to throw a wrench in that.

Change is good but finish updating all the classes first. Snipers should get flash grenades or asbestos. Or both.

Spies are really easy to find now with how often they are spy checked. I'm really curious how they will change the disguise kit and sentries.

There are a few cool things they could do that would change the spy's disguise without making it too difficult to detect.

1.) There is a mod out there that shows a spy exploding when they cloak. The idea is you hit it when you get hit by a rocket or something and it looks like you gibbed, but you're really cloaked.

2.) They could bring back the feign death spy attribute where instead of cloaking, you look like a dead player on the ground. That's how it was in TFC. If they made this an option so that you could cloak and fake your own death, it would add an interesting challange.

They were saying how people are gradually adapting to the spies' abilities. If the feign death did come true, then it would add an entirely different aspect to the game, with everybody "spy checking" bodies on the ground to kill "dead" spies. The game Unreal Tournament 3 uses this, and it works most of the time but sometimes is outsmarted once again.

i read this a couple of days ago someone posted it on the steam tf2 forums. i didnt even think about relaying it here lol. nice.
