Alright, so now we have a spy sniper.... great. Just what we needed...
There are two sorts of men in this world: the sort with blood pouring out of a hole in their heads, and the sort holding the Ambassador. It has the ammo count of a revolver and the pinpoint accuracy of a sniper rifle, even at long range. (But remember, a gun that packs this much heat needs to cool off between shots, so make every shot count.)
Ambassador gets Headshot crits CONFIRMED

Just note, it did say it had to cool off after every shot.
God, Spy update is looking good.
Re: JAMES'S SPY UPDATE MEGATHREAD - Kenny Strife - 05-19-2009
I hope it does more base damage than the revolver. If so, headshot crits would turn the spy into both a minisniper (or spyper, if you can forgive the terrible pun), and the hugest nuisance in the game.
I can't wait to have the entire enemy team cursing my name.
;D
Re: JAMES'S SPY UPDATE MEGATHREAD - Wedge - 05-19-2009
If this does more damage it better have HALF the firing rate of the base revolver. That thing is already ungodly powerful, this is just absurd. I guess I'll be able to legitimately play Revolver Spy now though.

There is no way this can be true.
There'd be no-scope headshots before that would ever happen.
Re: JAMES'S SPY UPDATE MEGATHREAD - Kenny Strife - 05-19-2009
Even without headshot crits, extra damage would make up for the "cooldown". To be honest, if extra accuracy was the only new feature of the Ambassador I'd be crying foul. The current revolver is already pretty damned accurate. The trouble is the (relatively) low damage. Yeah, the damage of the current revolver is pretty good, and the rate of fire is top-notch, but it takes 3-4 shots to kill most people, if they have full health. If they've got good reflexes, you may not get more than one or two, though. All it takes is one or two shotgun blasts to kill a spy.

Psssst. Here's a hint for you: You shouldn't get shot really often as a spy, since you should be aiming for people's back anyways.
Don't forget that the revolver is there in case you miss a backstab.
Re: JAMES'S SPY UPDATE MEGATHREAD - Radio Raheem - 05-19-2009
you have a 1 shot kill from behind and invisibility. why are you complaining the spy is weak in direct combat? hey guys when i play sniper people rush me and kill me. give me a shotgun please
Re: JAMES'S SPY UPDATE MEGATHREAD - Kenny Strife - 05-19-2009
Well, you don't succeed at every single backstab, and you can't always be going after stragglers and snipers, so it would be nice to have more firepower in case things go bad.
It's not like he's getting an Uzi or a shotgun.

Does anyone notice he's holding a brown cigarette again? Or is it just that it's basically burnt out?
