Declined Ban the spycicle

[Ruelel]

it is HORRIBLY overpowered.
silent kill, extinguish yourself from flames from a pyro. give a spy the enforcer,spycicle, and the deadringer and you got a completely overpowered spy

edit: yes i know its easy to kill enforcer spies BUT having all those weapons together makes you pretty much you an offensive class, which the spy shouldnt be

 

[CiNiC]

On a small note: If you put the "-dxlevel 81" under launch options, you can see the ragdolls left behind by YER spies.

YER is retarded. Anyone who knows how to play the game knows how to spy check effectively. Could just be the scout in me talking, but even as demo, I know when it's a spy via walking into them or hitting them.

This shit is going faster than hotcakes.

EDIT: Then it stops right after me :C

 

[CiNiC]

Also keep in mind that Spy is Gabe's favorite class, and as such has never been nerfed once since release.

Herp derp Dead Ringer.

 

[Aw3s0m3n3ss]

Herp derp Dead Ringer.

 

[ClassyPotato]

TF2 is ruled by spy paranoia, anyway. Except for that few annoying weeks when the noob stampede came in and none of them knew how to spy check.4

It's why i rarely, if ever, play spy.

I tried the spycicle, in 10 minutes I broke my backstabs in a single life record...

 

[ironliondoor]

if the spy-cicles get deleted, i'm going to explode

 

[Doki]

they should make it so the knife doesnt come back unless you go to a weapons closet

 

[Doki]

or they could let the spy get lit, but he doesnt take damage for 2 seconds.

 

[CiNiC]

they should make it so the knife doesnt come back unless you go to a weapons closet

That would be incredibly interesting. Make it like a Ullapool Caber. Make spies use their revolvers.

 

[Doki]

at least then there would be a 30 second pause between free backstabs

:(

+1
it confuses me horribly.

 

[Doki]

they said they fixed the exploit? anyone know what they did?

 

[Ninja_DC]

Valve: ohh no the spy can be lit on fire when invis
Solution: the "balanced" spy-cyle
Valve: oh noo ubers can destroy sentrys
Solution: the pomson 6000. which doesn't require ammo for any apprent reason.

I would honsently prefer stock pub matches half the time; although adding new weapons is the only thing which has kept tf2 alive for so long. imho.

 

[Cthulu V2]

I love the knife. My max backstab per life was 5, and i got 10 on my first try with this knife. Even though i love it, it is extremly overpowered and i +1 this because of that.

i don't really agree with banning a weapon it is op should be nerf but i don't agree on banning
their are others ways to spy check... running into them or doing 3 seconds spycheck burnings on everyone (I have seen it done) XD
jarate, bleeding, mad milk....
ice makes it very noticable makes people paranoia even further

homewrecker + pryo= no spy getting to that this combo usually makes spys change classes XD thats one way to counter them
should be nerf in some way but not banned

 

[Justinator]

god knows when valve would ever nerf it
