Spies can now control which weapon the enemy team sees them holding. Hitting the "last disguise" key while disguised updates the disguise to show the Spy's currently held weapon

Initial Wepon Review:

The Force-a-Nature

A very neat gun which appears to be stronger than the normal scatter gun. I frankly did not find the slow reload time a problem, because it actually seems to reload very quickly despite the reduce. The low clip also isn't much of a problem because of the aforementioned reload time.
Still cannot figure out how to jump with it though.
The taunt remains the same as with the normal scatter gun.

The Energy Drink

Fairly useful, as it takes about a second to drink, but grants you about 5-8 seconds of invulnerability (for the most part). The slowdown time really isn't that noticeable, for me anyways. Whether you want to drop the pistol however is up to you. You have pretty much an unlimited amount with a short reload time.
There is no taunt with this item.

Mr. Sandman

It's... okay. Hitting an opponent with the ball stuns them for a few seconds, during which you can either pound the crap out of them or run away. You only get one ball, after which there is a... I'd say a 30 seconds respawn time during which you can use the bat as a regular bat, albeit it does less damage. That's fairly noticeable. However, the ball does not vanish immediately, and if you can pick it up before it goes away, it bypasses the reload time. However, the lack of double jump seems to be a pretty big drawback, so whether you want to use it or not is up to you.
It also has a cool new taunt.

Disappointment. They didn't even make a "Meet the" video. Bastards. :'(

Come on, even something retarded like "Meet the BONK" for the energy drink would have been fine.

When achievment farming, I sometimes get ones I didn't even mean to get.
Would that qualify as a moment to feel proud, or just another bump evened out?

Naw, I'd still consider that part of the farming, 'cause the conditions from getting it weren't... real, if ya get what I mean.
-sigh-
I'm starting to regret my decision...

You're still earning the achievments, either way

You're still putting effort into them.
The conditions are still there.
The weapons are not changed in any way by farming.

Farming is basically just earning an acheivment on crack. Any feeling of dirt washes off when you unload the Force-A-Nature into someone's face and juggle combo yourself into the position to do it again on his friend

It's nearly the same as using a cheatcode. Getting the super-incinerator-gun-of-death isn't nearly as awesome as when you actually work to get it.

I never have the time nor effort to earn the achievements fairly, so I just used an achievement hack instead.

Do I feel bad? I do not.
