For the people that didn't know it yet, the Sniper update is coming out soon http://www.teamfortress.com/sniperupdate/. From now on we know that he'll get a Longbow, which is epic win to me :D.
I hope the achievements will be fun too.

Something someone noticed in today's update news, if you look at the sniper update's page, you can see a dead spy with a different looking revolver

Why did it piss you off? :) You don't like achievements?

all I know is, bows are awesome, I might have to get back into tf2, as I am sniper rapage, especially since the reason I stopped in the first place is because EVERYONE was using pyros after their update, so with more out, that problem is hopefully gone

I totally agree with you, Bows are awesome, and everyone being a Pyro is very annoying (especially as spy, they always know where you are for some reason).

Let's hope it'll be here soon. I hope It's released this weekend.

Hmm never noticed that.

Anyways, I found something very creepy right now. Look at the Sniper Update page day 3 again. There's suddenly a cloaked spy behind him! I did some research and came here: http://www.rockpapershotgun.com/2009/05/15/sniper-update-day-3-things-get-mysterious/

The update IS a spy! http://www.teamfortress.com/spyupdate/

-It's a simultaneous update in order to keep the classes balanced!

-Pretty witty Valve. +1 for all the hints and clues in the first 3 days of sniper updates. (they flashed an image of the spy half-clocked behind the sniper's day 3 update for 10 minutes). The TF2 forums went wild with people claiming they saw it, and others not believing them... Well it's out now!

I know, lol I posted that 5 min before day 4. Anyways, nice job Valve! I just hope the Sniper update will come with it, since the Sniper unlockables look cooler than the spy unlockables IMO.
