Shame that sawmill I think is the only custom on that list.
The double payload looks nice, thats how a double payload SHOULD be laid out
Nucleus looks to have some neat props that Im sure other map makers will use, other than that don't care much.

Oh god please let me have the shield and the kukri out at the same time ;D

I don't understand it. Is it only good against backstabs? And is it going to be visible when you are using it?
Re: TIMS SNIPER UPDATE MEGATHREAD BOOOURNS! - Honest - 05-14-2009
Ok -now- Snipers can have one big circle jerk, because as far as I can tell the Razorback takes one of the Snipers counters (Spy, duh) and kicks it in the fucking teeth. You are supposed to die as Sniper to Spies, unless your constantly spy checking but even then you can't be out of scope forever or your not Sniping.
Natasha was bearable because even then, sneaking up on a Heavy with it and dodging decently as Scout won that fight and the gun cripples them against Sasha Heavies, making it an Ok Scout counter but not a replacement for good aim. This is just insulting, especially because I bet it replaces the SMG and not the Kukri, so every Sniper will wear it because who uses the SMG when you can flail about and pray for a crit.
Wow I am bitter today.

Sounds like it slows you down as well. Revolver is where it's at anyways.

Eh, this actually looks like an OK unlockable. Â Kinda an anti-fail spy device. Â I can't see pros using it though. Â TBH if a sniper is using it, just revolver him.
Re: TIMS SNIPER UPDATE MEGATHREAD BOOOURNS! - Dave - 05-14-2009
sniper class doesnt sound as pussy anymore

This was a surprising idea. Can't see myself using it all the time unless I'm getting stabbed to hell constantly like on Mach 4, but it's alright. Pretty useful, though it's not like it makes spy's useless. Just means spys have to revolver snipers down which is pretty easy to do if they don' t know they are there and even if they fail with the stab, they can still escape and the Sniper is down a weapon with no SMG to chase the spy.
Wonder what the third item will be? A spear? Boomerang? A little Kangaroo with boxing gloves that chases people down?
Re: TIMS SNIPER UPDATE MEGATHREAD BOOOURNS! - backfire - 05-14-2009
So let me get this straight. It's an unlock for the Sniper's secondary weapon that protects him from a specific weapon from a certain class one single time.
As useful as bonk?

Well since bonk really isn't that useful, it's above that, since all it takes is a spy to stab the thing and then he can't stab anymore till the shock wears off. Can keep a spy from going for a backstab rush sometimes.

Bonk is useful, no one wants to bother to coordinate with it so it is deemed useless. This, as backfire says, is stupid because it literally targets the Snipers major counter for fun times and cake. People speculate it might be sappable, which is the only good thing about this because it will alert the Sniper but still give the spy time to stab depending on who's faster. On the other hand, the down sides they've mentioned (Losing SMG, slower movement speed) are stupid. How much do snipers actually move, and truthfully how many snipers use the SMG? 80% flail and cry with the kukri praying for crits, 15% SMG, and 5% can actually quickscope you at point blank to make you look silly.
Hate it, rage, etc, sniper circlejerk go.
