i guess it's spy+sniper at the same time?

 

[Paintballer]

no just spy

 

[Masterpiece]

no just spy

I really doubt it, it must be both.

They both have 2 weapons revealed, monday will probably show up the third weapon for each.

It's gotta be both it got delayed from the 19th to the 21st but in the Major updates it only says Spy.

 

[JHeat]

they changed the address to spy update. none of the old pages are sniper update anymore. I think its just spy.

Click it, and read it. RIGHT NOW.


I TOLD YOU SO! I KNEW IT ALL A-FREAKING-LONG!

Looks like it's both, they pushed back the date from the 19th to the 21st, plenty of time for the remaining melee weapon and achievements for Sniper and the rest of the weapons and achievements for Spy.

WHAT A TWIST...Wow, good idea finally what the spy really needs. no real side effects besides the metal doesnt recharge cloak, but I was already used to that before the update. Hope its the real thing...wait is that 2 different watches...wth. Wonder how you get them.

Guys, Valve said this update will be their biggest yet.

It is both the Sniper and Spy being updated. Day 4 says surprise because we didn't know they would update the Spy in addition. I personally can't wait for the spy stuff, it looks sweet!

Are we going to be able to choose one of the watches? Because the one were you can stay cloaked forever as long as you are not moving sounds rather...lame.

 

[Haggus McGee]

They are getting both in so they can finalize the Xbox360 DLC. I think this is the best explanation. Good twist, valve never cease to be more than any souless game developer.

 

[Phoenixxx Wright]

I freaking love you valve.

i am waiting to see what they do to update the sapper. they need to do something with it. Its the only part of the spy that i think really needs updating.

Sapper might be just a little easier then the knife which might not get an update. (Anything else won't be a knife) Though dead ringer just serves as an extra lifeline that is uncontrollable! A simple bullet could pierce by accident and all of a sudden your cover is blow and you die instantly.If their is 1 player ,who has read this update and remember it, is there forget that 8 second cloak there's going to be a spy hunt.

The stay cloaked forever might be bad while you're trying to escape enemies because you are forced to stay in a single spot to cloak.

QFT, the sapper is really weak and definatly needs a buff. The knife is perfect as is, cant think of anything they can come up with that will improve that. The revolver...IDK, since vlave has been making classes that stops movement (bonk, sniper bow...if its not a lie) perhaps they will give the spy a tranqualizer gun.

From what I understand, the stay cloaked forever watch only recharges while you're standing still. Meaning it discharges like normal while you move around, but once you stop it starts to charge back up.

This, gentlemen, will be awesome.

It probably discharges faster and recharges slower to compensate.


The dead ringer watch seems kinda meh... unless it lets you backstab while cloaked. Otherwise you'll cloak each time you're spy checked without being able to do anything about it.

the sniper update shows a "dead"spy uncloaking behind the sniper, while holding the watch.

So i guess you have to uncloak like normal.

Yeah, that's how I understood it too.
