Not sure I get it. If a sniper can hit a spy with a jar of pee, then why not just shoot him?

Perhaps, once you mark the spy with the pee, he won't be able to disguise himself for a while? We'll have to wait and see.

I think an infrared scope would be cool for the sniper.

Note that the above was posted on the following date:
A sneak preview of the next class update!
April 1, 2009 - Robin Walker

But don't dispair, they confirmed on the 2nd that the sniper is next. Just not likely to be throwing around his piss.

Why can't he throw around his pee? Is that distasteful? One of the zombies in Left4Dead vomits on you.

I never looked at the date of the email that was sent. I've had quite a few sitting in my inbox and that was one of them that I finally got around to checking out.

Ah. I claim immunity from being a "fool" as I did not first see it on April Fool's Day.

I'd be fine with it, but it does seem a bit unlikely.

Actually, I didn't think anything of it because I could see the TF2 logic behind it. Everything is cartoony, so why not pee that makes a spy smell, and therefore, unable to disguise himself?

Yeah, I wasn't actually surprised by it, after "sandvitch." Plus the pee jars show up in the 'meet the sniper' video in a rather amusing visual gag.

Maybe it's real, but it just struck me as being a little too over-the-top, or maybe a little too on-the-nose. Or some other three-word-hyphenate.

You fuckers are really forcing me to want to spend another $1500 on a new machine.

Goddamn you all to hell.

I'm *DEAD*

But I'm playing other things for now. Someone post about it when the sniper update goes live and I'll come back.

Need the name you made the account with, not your current display name.

Or the e-mail you made the account with also works, apparently.
