Anyways... After playing this update I have a few more comments.
1. Jarate is really fun. It doesn't look like a jar of (realistic) piss, so I think of it more like magic golden water... Which makes me get lots of assists and helps me kill them faster. It sucks because then I don't have an SMG, but once I have the Huntsman I think I'll like it even more.
2. The unlock system has its ups and downs.
The upsides are that I was really happy when I got my Jarate, there aren't a crazy amount of spies/snipers, and the best thing... Achievements are actually fun now. I was just doing them because I was bored of killing people the normal way, so I pulled up the list and looked for some that looked like fun. And they were. I wasn't chasing a carrot, I was just enjoying the achievements for their own value.
The problem with the system is that there are a ridiculous number of afk people, and it sucks to not be able to try out these new things with the release of an update. If they didn't hype up the releases I'd love it, but as it is I want to try out the new stuff. I don't want to play for hours to MAYBE get to try one of them out.
3. This bares repeating: Achievements are actually fun. I felt rewarded when I threw my Jarate and soaked 4 enemies, or when I taunted after killing someone. It's another way to play and enjoy the game now, rather than a means to an end. I'm not sure when I'll have the opportunity to slash 3 people after soaking them with Jarate, but I'm looking forward to it. :-)

Hmm, that is weird... I have no trouble 2shotting snipers, first shot launches them into the air making them sitting ducks, then simply close in for the killshot. timing the second shot is a must in an open area (STRAFE A LOT vs new snipers, that bow is nasty!). Or even better if they are near a wall shoot both buckshots in their face, while aiming them into the wall. 9/10 dead sniper...
I have killed pyros headon with their flamer on me, leaves me burning with 50-30hp and looking for medic/dispenser/medkit. Just hope they don't get critpower <img src="style_emoticons/<#EMO_DIR#>/tounge.gif" style="vertical-align:middle" emoid=":p" border="0" alt="tounge.gif" />

Stuff I got sofar are <!--coloro:red--><span style="color:red"><!--/coloro-->3 sandviches +org, 2 natasha's +org, 1 Sandman +org, 1 vampire +org<!--colorc--></span><!--/colorc--> and The Ambassador. I'm not happy about this nonsense...
I've only gotten the Huntsman and the KGB (which I already had from before). I've gotten zero items today <img src="style_emoticons/<#EMO_DIR#>/sad-fix.gif" style="vertical-align:middle" emoid=":(" border="0" alt="sad-fix.gif" />
I played some more Scout. I already knew it, but man, Scout on Gravelpit is madness. MADNESS! I got 8 kills in one life at most. And at least twice I got >5 kills/life. I'm starting to appreciate the Force-A-Nature more now. I still don't understand how the sniper didn't die in the earlier mentioned scenario. However, I managed to kill lots of doods by surprise (including snipers) from behind. I got like 10/50 or more of the "Caught Napping" achievement already <img src="style_emoticons/<#EMO_DIR#>/tounge.gif" style="vertical-align:middle" emoid=":p" border="0" alt="tounge.gif" />
The knockback is very handy in certain situations. I could throw people off the tower (point C in gravelpit), throw rocketjumping soldiers back and detect spies. Great for keeping pyros away, too. Reloading is a slight disadvantage, but if there's room to move around, I'll spend the time to pull some daring evasive maneuver and attack from a different direction.
I don't know if the Razorback works at all. For all I know it could be the equivalent of sticking a post-it on your back saying "please don't shiv me, I'm a bleeder." But hey, if spies don't dare stab me, I guess it does work as advertised.

It does work, I tried to riskily stab a snipers shield then cloak away with the CnD but his friends got me, your knife sort of freezes in the "backstab ready" position with a bzzt noise
Speaking of scooting around, had some great fun with that as RED in pl_hoodoo. At least, once I figured out that you could doublejump onto the corrugated sheets overhanging the entryway into the area of the second cap point, and from there into the window you can only walk up into from the other side (which gets difficult once BLU has the first point).

I don't think so, but the pyro *can* set the arrows of a friendly sniper on fire. I don't know if it does extra damage (it probably does), but it certainly looks badass.
Also, even though I feel kind of a tool for it, I've been playing spy a lot since the spy update was announced. I've never really played spy before (I had 40 hours on demo and 20-30 on all the other classes, and 1 on spy) but it's REALLY REALLY FUN. It also makes me go "woooooo!" and dance in my chair when I pull off something awesome that everyone else thinks is skill but I know is utter luck.
I really love the "Mini crit!" when you hit someone who is under the effects of Jarate.
Huntsman seem too powerful, scoring 150 damage if a arrow hits anywhere and tripple damage on HS. The only real weakness is long range, but even then you can overcome regular snipers with your faster shooting and mobility. Now they have become way too good in close combat, not even sacrificing the kukri for Jarate :/
Jumped on TF2 for the first time in ages just to see what it was like. I don't even know what I unlocked :p
Thing for me is that I play pyro/medic and I've got the unlocks I care about already for them so it's all kinda moot for me. That said, I'm kinda surprised I'm still such a crazy accurate shot with the flaregun after all this time...
Unfortunately it seems that while the death for cloak and dagger is quite convincing, it doesn't stop you being set on fire, so outside of being confusing for a pyro it rarely stops them killing you properly. 'Course I say this from the Pyro's side, I didn't bother with spy personally :D
Noticed a few snipers being frisky with the bow and arrow but they're fairly easy to dodge; the travel time doesn't help the arrow much over long distances either. I don't really play snipe but I do like bows and arrows so I might give it a shot if I unlock it :p
With all these hats and stuff coming I wonder if Valve has ever considered unlockable female versions of the classes, like the ones from 'nerfnow' or something XD
Probably considered and rejected. Think of the immense amount of work that would take. Aside from making new models and animations for everything, they'd also have to hire new voice actors. And the spy would end up looking sexist for saying "gentlemen."
I know it wouldn't exactly be a small amount of work but it'd be nice and add a bit more to the game. The current characters are pretty fun but there's a difference between 'a cool character' and 'a cool character you want to play' which is why I tend to stick to Pyro (the writer of nerf now also seems to be a Pyro fan for the most part though they've given the other classes a bit more love in recent comics :p ). If we had a cute engineer or svelte medic I'd probably diversify my class play on a more regular basis :3
As for the pyro, it depends how much you want to do. If you want the male and female ones to not differ much all you'd need is new animations and voices, you could use the same model (the big asbestos suit isn't exactly figure hugging).
I guess one issue is how limited in diversity guys make female characters... that and less than pretty female characters tend not to be well received so a 'big bertha' for the HW Girl wouldn't see much use likely; they'd have to make her Amazonian or something I guess instead.
<b>edit:</b> doubt anyone would care much about the 'gentlemen' of the spy either. It tends to be guys who are more bothered about that kind of 'sexist' stuff than girls anyhoo :p

I want to see a dieting game where the idea is you take some super fat slob and make him slim/normal. Albeit by diet, exercise etc. Y'never know, you could end up with a buff'd up marine by the time you're done with that fatty!

The flip side of that is that you end up with all races / genders crammed into something simply for the sake of "diversity" rather than any real need for it. Which is just as annoying. And is, amusingly enough, a pet peeve of mine. We should have a death match to see who's side is best.

A game that tackled obesity would be a good thing, simply because it's a current world issue.
I suggest you grow up and stop venting your anger on here.

I've got the perfect idea for the game, it's you in the intro feeling sympathetic towards their plight but then it just cuts to you screaming about how you hate them, hate how they look and that they stink like a pig. But whatever, TF2

But there IS a game that tackles it, and quite hilariously at that: Fat Princess.
Fat people don't get angry, they get <i>tired</i>.
Well it's cram time at chateau ZiGG so I ain't gonna have much time if any to play, but the 16 hours i managed to pull out of nowhere this weekend yielded me a couple of unlocks I already had. WHOOP, and trade them? I honestly don't think they have any market value considering pretty much EVERYONE ELSE EVER has them or could get them unlocked in 5 minutes if they were reallllly desperate.

You still get unlocks upon achieving a milestone. It says:
XXXXXX has earned: Achievement Blah
XXXXXX has earned: Milestone 1
XXXXXX has found: Weapon Unlock!
I've seen it happen. Twice.
So if you want a specific unlock you can still do the achievements and earn it the old way.

Ah, it would seem so. No milestone achievements for sniper and spy.

I suggest you grow up and stop venting your anger on here.<!--QuoteEnd--></div><!--QuoteEEnd-->
It's not a world issue, it's a western world issue. People who can't get enough to eat are still a bigger issue that people who eat too much.
But there IS a game that tackles it, and quite hilariously at that: Fat Princess.
Well it's cram time at chateau ZiGG so I ain't gonna have much time if any to play, but the 16 hours i managed to pull out of nowhere this weekend yielded me a couple of unlocks I already had. WHOOP, and trade them? I honestly don't think they have any market value considering pretty much EVERYONE ELSE EVER has them or could get them unlocked in 5 minutes if they were reallllly desperate.
I hate it when games have me down to a T.
You still get unlocks upon achieving a milestone. It says:
XXXXXX has earned: Achievement Blah
XXXXXX has earned: Milestone 1
XXXXXX has found: Weapon Unlock!
I've seen it happen. Twice.
So if you want a specific unlock you can still do the achievements and earn it the old way.

But you could get the weapon from the unlock randomly and then unlock the same one if you hit the milestone, giving you *another* duplicate
I remember doing the scout running achievement while watching a movie (I just put +forward and +left in the console on my own listenserver and let TF2 run in the background) Goes to show ya how much I value achievements...
