Quote from: Valve
Added: Leave a calling card on your victims

Wat.

Quote from: Valve
Escape Plan
    Players receive the Marked-For-Death effect after deploying, and for a short period after holstering.

Yus, that has been nerfed now. Equalizer > Escape Plan

Quote from: Valve
Winger

    Added +25% Jump Height bonus when active

Is this now a somewhat decent weapon? Maybe...

Quote from: Valve
Loose Cannon

     Added: Double-Donk (directly impacting an enemy within half a second before the bomb explosion) sound and particle effects

Sounds like a luck type of thing.

Quote from: Valve
Dead Ringer

    When under the effect of Feign Death, damage taken decreases the duration of the effect

Are we keeping the old DR for Vsh/FF2?

Most of the weapon changes seem reasonable. Although goodbye sets. :(

And what's with the colonial theme? Not that the items are bad looking, but not really my liking. And must every spy hat use the Fancy Fedora as a base or something? I'll stick with my Charmer's, thank you.

My guess with the colonial theme is how fancy it looks. It's a well-known fact in TF2 that sexy, fancy hats are better than filthy ones (Gibus)

The new items, Bo. A lot of them are based on military clothing from the colonial time.

Not really. From editing the pages, I can name some that are not colonial. Those ones are the After Dark, Pampered Pyro, Caffeine Cooler, Dasfeel however it's spelled, Soot Suit, Gabe Glasses, Gaelic Golf Club, Deliquent Down Vest, Bigg Mann on Campus, The Cool Cat Cardigan, The Borscht Belt, Wet Works, The Flared Frontiersman, The Whirly Warrior, The Blood Banker, Liuetenant Bites, Macho Mann, El Muchacho, Das Hazmattenhatten, Virtual Viewfinder, Greased Lightning, etc.

Eh, those items just seemed to be greater in number than other 'themes' released with this update. Then again, I'm not sure if all the item pictures are listed in the reddit link above, so perhaps that and the fact that I can only open like 4 or 5 tabs at once with this phone just kinda made it seem like that was the biggest theme. :P
