@FPSHywel In your tf directory (For me it's C:/Program Files (x86)/Steam/steamapps/username/team fortress 2/tf ) there's a folder "cfg". Inside there, you should find "spy.cfg". Open it in notepad and paste the script into it. If you don't want it exclusive to spy, then create a new file "autoexec.cfg" (make sure it's not autoexec.cfg.txt) and paste it into there. Have fun!
Curious Question: Do you find yourself using the Dead Ringer more often than not? And when you decide to switch to or away from it? Part of me wants to say that you start off with the Dead Ringer and switch to the Invis Watch depending on a few factors of the enemy team coming into play.
It's more or less that by using it, we're telling Valve we're ok with the fact that they're making everything else obsolete. When we're not, we're not ok with Valve adding all the these upgrades to the stock items.
With melee weapons, it was...tolerable since they virtually reskins of the same weapon, function wise. Look up the Fists, Shovel, Bonesaw, Bottle, Kukuri, and Fire Axe. They all have the same exact stats, just look different.
With Primary and Secondary weapons, very different story. There is no need to make direct upgrades for ANY of these items, and if the unlocks are too powerful, then either buff the stock, or nerf the unlocks. In this case, the Enforcer needs to be nerfed. There is no ifs or buts about the matter, the Revolver was perfectly fine, we did NOT need an upgrade, period.
EVERY new Spy player should be told these words. It irks me to no end to see a friendly spy traipsing around as an enemy pyro while running out of spawn with the rest of his team.
@watsyurdeal Yea those are always quite easy to pull off for me. Though if they don't suspect you in the first place they will react slower no matter what, and usually fall victim to your stab. But I noticed something nice you pulled off when the scout was chasing you, you kind of jumped in place and he ran right forward, almost wedging himself between the stairs and you, making it perfect for a stab. Issas it intentional for it to turn out like that?
Haha I'm spamming your video so much right now. But I do think this is good spying material, and you being one of my "spydols" (it's a pun on idols if you don't get it) I can't help but discuss it a bit. So that being said, I was gonna ask about making stairstabs more discreet and quick, because you can't control jump height and it is the most obvious of trickstabs.
Well it's simply a matter of opportunity, notice how twice I predicted that two people would chase me up the stairs and jumped in preparation.
If they're hot your pursuit, it prob wouldn't work, but if they unaware or unsure you're a Spy, they should be easy to stab. It should be reflex more than anything.
@watsyurdeal Oh you don't have an auto-disguise script? Because when you were trying to snipe with the ambassador during the first half of the first stage in the video, you seemed to reengage your disguise after every shot, making it look and sound like auto-redisguise.
Huh. Just finished the whole video. I noticed you talked about the enforcer a lot, and yet even when you got basically instakilled by a back burner you didn't comment on it. What's your redaction of the Backburner? And the phlogistinator? Personally I think those are the two biggest mistakes valve has ever made...
The Backburner encourages Ambushing, but the Philog rewards W+M1 by making you damage output 3x more, enough to kill most classes in miliseconds. It's bullshit to say the least.
Although for the most part, the backburner is still not used for ambushing. In my opinion there could have been a better choice for a downside for it, because it encourages newbies not to learn to airblast, and it basically just as rewarding (unless you're that good at airblasting). I think they could lower it to 10 per airblast, but give it only 100 ammo overall, teaching people to be more efficient with it without discourage learning how to airblast.
@IsaaCrafter Given how many times I've been on a team with 4 or more spies (same with Snipers); I just don't think they care. Two things Valve have done that spoil the game; random Critz being on as the default and lack of class balance not built into the game and made the default.
I suggest you remive your auto-redisguise script. I used to use it too, but I realized that it was stifling my diversity, because I found myself never changing disguises even though it's always best to change disguises right after a feign. If you can still remember to though, whatever, your choice :P
The jump that you said you can't make, from the roof of that little shed onto the higher ground near blue spawn: to get there crouch jump while aiming to land on the ledge but in a way so that if you go straight you won't quite make it, then airstrafe (let go of w, hold a/d while slowly moving your aim left/right) towards the ledge (right)
I know you're a good spy, but it's kind of disheartening to see how you can afford to use the same lousy disguise for two matches and still do great because the Dead Ringer basically gives you personal ubercharge every few seconds :( .
Not much of incentive to go IW, besides "stylin'", huh...
It's just a different playstyle, it wouldn't make me any better if I couldn't play the class. Bad Spies are always bad Spies when using the Dead Ringer, and it just amplifies of those who are adept with the class.
It's not that I don't love the IW, on the contrary I use it a lot.
IW is my main offensive watch, Dead Ringer is my main defensive watch.
I'm an idiot. :c

Not sure why you're telling people to not use the enforcer...
I don't care about standards, the enforcer is better than the revolver, therefore it's the best revolver, excluding the amby.
You're entitled to use what you want. But I'm also entitled to kill someone over and over again for using an inferior weapon.
