I thought about this and I like it. You may disagree or agree or may like 1 or 2, but still read it and tell me what you think.

Spy
---


Sapper Replacement
Electronic Canceler:
-------------------

At a limited distance away, you must look at the
sentry, teleporter, or dispenser and you can use
your electronic canceler. It will freeze the sentry,
dispenser, or teleporter for an X amount of seconds (I suggest 10)
and once it is over, the engineer's building unfreezes.
Engineer can still repair
Now valve can do whatever they want with this but, I like this:

You can have a regain timer, almost like your cloak but once
you use it, it goes to 0 and resets again. Maybe every 20-30 seconds or whatever

With this you cannot actually break their building, but
rather create an opportunity for your team member to break
it for you. This will allow the spy to do more teamwork
than they already do and is a nice replacement that is not
too weak or too strong.

==========================

Magnum Replacement
Sleeper Gun:
--------------

With this gun I thought up, it can be pretty cool...Basicly I want
it like this:

Every shot you shoot someone with your gun they lose health of course, but
also slow down 2% with every shot you shoot. This effect stays on for maybe 10-20
seconds or whatever valve wants, but with this gun, you can create wonderful
opportunities to not only help yourself catch up to them and stab them in the
back but help your teammates in a variety of situations from runners to incoming
enemies and the such. if 2% isn't good enough, make it more. Whatever valve wants!

===========================

Butterfly Knife Replacement
Cionide Injection:
-----------------

I was thinking and I thought up of this. It's pretty cool I think.
This of course only works from the back, BUUUUUUT it has a twist

I thought up of doing something new here

It's range is point blank, you have to be pretty much touching them.

Your weapon is a needle with the deadly liquid scionide which is 100% death instantly

The model can be a small syringe with green/blue liquid bright glowing liquid inside of it

OK..HERE IS THE TWIST, ITS NEW BUT IT WORKS

When you attack your opponent, you don't lose your disquise!!!!!!!!

Instead, when you have your Cionide Injection needle out, you look like the enemy
but instead of holding their default weapon, the enemy can see you holding the needle
--Remember the needle has glowing neon liquid that lights up in the dark so it should be
pretty easy to spot

When you have your gun / sapper, you go back to having the default enemy weapon, but not the injection!

I think this creates much newer opportunities

And if valve wants like the 25% slow down thing for the ubersaw, they
can add a little thing to this such as if an enemy pyro burns you, the needle explodes
and causes yourself to get an X amount of damage such as 50% ECT

This makes you further act like a spy and take it out at the perfect time, kill, and switch back

They can make a new sound for each character that gets injection, like a soft moan or something like that

===============

I think my ideas create a new gameplay for the spy that can actually help out the teammate.
You may disagree with my idea or like it, but this is my suggestion!

At least, friendly fire is a must. Why? I like being a spy too, but everytimes somebody sees a teammate, they shoot to perform a spycheck (me too). And spy is easily known because they cannot disguise to somebody with a secondary weapons (probably you'll know this, who doesnt?)

I like the electronic canceller, because this is the only alternative you used that actually adds something nice to the game without ruining it.

See that as a compliment please.

The electronic canceler seems like a good idea, since it lets you work with your team. However, your forgetting that a regular sapper can take a building down for more than 10 seconds, have no charge time, And damage the building. The only thing you've really added is the ability to do it from far away, which doesn't make sense since the spy's main objective is to sneak behind enemy lines. I have seen another incarnation of this idea (the magnetic sapper) that takes the building down but does no damage, letting another team mate destroy it.

As for the sleeper gun, it sounds like a good idea, but when you think about it, the player on the other end would have their game lagged up while the get shot or stabbed in the back. That doesn't seem very fun.

Your last idea, the sionide injection, seems a little awkward. I have an idea that's similar to this.

My Ideas:

Revlover = Silencer

The gun does more that just make you shots silent. You enemy will still see their health drop, but they won't be able to tell where the shot is coming from. And, you can also shoot while cloaked or disguised. While your disguised, it will appear that your diguise is firing their weapon. But because your enemy is taking damage, it might be a give away. Also, while you cloaked, each shot lowers you cloak bar, but the weapon it's self raises you max cloak to give you more time to shoot. The weapon would have to b very weak so that you don't pick of enemies while they have no idea where you are.

Sapper = Spy Bombs

This idea may not b very good, but I think it opens up a lot of options. Instead of sappers, you can now place a bomb. You can only have one at a time so that you don't place them every where. You can place the spy bombs anywhere, walls, floors, engie buildings, and even allies or enemies. The bomb is set off by bumping into it or being shot at. And, since you can only have one, clicking fire while the bomb is deployed cloaks it. Some examples are:
� Placing one on a damaged enemy building. When the engie comes to repair it, it'll go off from the wrench hit
� Placing one on a dispenser so that an enemy will bump into it and set it off.
� Placing one on the floor around a corner so the enemy will step on it
� Placing one on a friendly scout, have them run into an enemy group, get shot, and set off the bomb
� Placing one on a friendly spy have them cloak, run behind enemy lines, get shot and set it off
Most of these only work if the bomb is cloaked so that the enemy doesn't notice it

Knife = Pen Knife

This weapon, like the injection, can be used while your disguised. It doesn't kill from behind, but instead take their disguise. To use it, you must hold down the fire button. You'll stab them with the knife, and begin to do damage. As you kill them, you pen will fill with ink. Once you've killed them (you pen is full) they die, but they leave no sign of death except a pool of ink that fades quickly. But when you kill with this pen, you immediately take the enemy's disguise. You take their name AND their weapon. This way, you can be a medic with a medigun or an Engie with a wrench.

Please give some me some feed back.

Well, your spy bomb is basically an ied, a mine, or a suicide weapon. It may be a good idea, but who knows if anyone from Valve is reading this!

Why don't we just give the spy a knife that he can throw? Maybe give him 3 butterfly knifes, and he can throw them to backstab someone from 10 feet away. What do you guys think?

Pyros are tooooo powerful
My Spy Suggestions For Team Fortress 2 Next Update S
