Enginner Update Clues ?!

[Chikennugget1]

Alright, today TF2 has been updated, you might have thought "oh another fixing update" but wait, in that update, Valve fixed the Kill icons for the community weapons, but now look at this picture

(This has been taken here,this french website is a non-official one but they are serious and they explain the updates and changes provided to the game each time it's been updated).

After watching it carefully you can see there are 2 myterious kill icons:

That sentry seems to be a kind of laser sentry (you can see the 3 normal kill icons for the current sentries, so that's obliged that's a new sentry), and a black headshot kill icon, but we can't guess a lot about it (maybe a special laser sniper? ).

I wanted to share this with you guys, mystery mystery...

its a Sniper Turret Thats hax

[QTesla]

Damnit, Just create ep 3 already

[EmRA]

Notice that the head is exploding on the black one.

First one is a unused Ambassador headshot icon.

But the sentry???

A few possibilities

• A sentry with faster build time BUT cannot be upgraded (For offensive / ninja sentries)
• A sniper sentry (longer range)
• A lazer-elephant-firing super radioactive super cannon.

[Notte]

I bet, Gordon Freeman find the Portal Gun in Ep3, he use it and BOOOM (Big Nuke) and we get Team Fortress 3.

why does everyone say "the black icon" it feels so racist D=

@picture sounds convincing but why keep the old sentry design.

If 100 white guys die to 1 black guy = Not racist.

100 Black guys get killed by 1 white guy = OMFG RACIST !

Thats how hypocrite all the RACIST calling is

[QTesla]

So all in all, TF2 is racist because it only has 1 black icon?

On topic: I just think it's a new kind of turret, Maybe a less damage dealing one but a real good lock on to target.

[TheGreenGrasshopper]

how bout it being racist being they add atleast 1 black guy in every game and now they add a kill icon... just nvm

weee lazer sentry

[Clavus]

How the fuck did this turn into a racism discussion. The icon is BLACK and nothing else.

[NECROSSIN]

and a black headshot kill icon, but we can't guess a lot about it

[offtopic]Tf2 was racict already

(Look at demoman)[/offtopic]

Well that looks interestingz...

[TheGreenGrasshopper]

It strange that Valve hasn't said anything about it cept that video, and why are they only giving out small updates. Something fishy is going here.

[bastardman]

Why would Valve even try making a successful game look racist anyway

[EmRA]

Sounds like typical valve to me.

, I guess.

[Dr. Pannenkoek]

IMO, the 'laser' sentry might just be a stationary sentry, e.g. you put it by a doorway, and the longer you stay in its 'laser path' the more damage it takes off.

This, as in, it does not move , like a normal sentry would do.

But by this theory im guessing it has 'fuel' in which you would keep needing to replenish.

This idea being great as it can deter spies from a point of entry.

But, by all theories, probably a experimental icon, or, i am wrong, like all wild theories

Lets just wait and wait....

waiting goes on....

until....

Engineer update appears!

[Bert]

So has anyone seen the new shotgun on the Mac video? http://www.teamfortress.com/macupdate/

Looks rather bad-ass. Scope used for shooting with the sniper sentry? Maybe....

[Darkstar]

My mind was truely blown when I saw it, at first when I saw the new decal on the barrel I thought, oh it'll just be a custom skin, but then I realised that valve dont use custom's in their videos, so my face automatically went :OOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOO

[Bert]

Ha yeah same, sweet skin on the barrel though. When it zoomed out and I saw that scope... My face:
