Im kind of confused... Who would use a bow over a gun? What does the bow do besides stick dead bodies into the wall?

help.
I certainly would. Mid range Bow+Arrow >>>>>> Sniper Rifle .

Plus it looks awesome. And you stick arrows in people.

Only bad thing is every time there's an update for TF2 it's usually the steam weekend deal and if it happens on friday it's almost guaranteed to be the weekend deal.

Wooooo! Its like the Stake gun all over again

Seems to be rewarding for snap shots too, and likely arcs like the Sandman ball. Should be fun

The new maps look really cool, a shame that two of them are Arena. I say this only 'cause I dont play Arena much. Also Arena is generally too fast-paced for one to appreciate the scenery.

You reckon there's a clue in the postcard for a future Sniper Unlock? I refer to the post-post-script, "Actually, just tell him I AM a doctor now". It could just be a joke but is it possible that a Sniper Unlock is something that can heal him and/or team mates. It would make sense given that the main complaint with Sniper is how he doesn't help the team, (bollocks.) You never know with Valve, they're tricky buggers.

I'm just gonna put this out there. Snipers secondary unlock / or mellee acts like a health pack he can drop for a teammate or himself. Would make sense if he is going to be closer to the action now.

The Razorback is a beautiful hand-carved tribal shield, built using indigenous techniques passed from father to son since before recorded time. Sometimes the old ways really are the best ways. And after using the Razorback in the field, we quickly discovered this was not one of those times.

All the tribal craftsmanship in the world, it turns out, cannot stop a modern butter knife. So we taped a car battery to it. Sure, the added weight of the redesigned Razorback’ll slow you down a little. But any poor sap dumb enough to backstab you while you’re sporting one is getting a surprise to the tune of 10,000 volts. Plus, if they want to stab you again, they’ll have to wait until their knife cools down. Which is lucky for you, since the Razorback collapses into a million finely crafted pieces after a single stab.[/url]

New update.

Something that solely prevents one single backstabs and slows you down?

Please tell me that's a joke...

I got to say that's a really boring idea. Sympathies to the spies who are going to get their sneakiness negated by an unlock which promotes camping.

So one stab and then it breaks?

Easy - go back to base and get a new one!! Definately good for 2fort I reckon

I hope we can see the Razorback on the back of the Sniper, so Spies can learn to avoid
