          Pfft, you guys can't appreciate new content anymore.

          Then again, they did promise a new gamemode.

              I love the update :awes

              But I hate Captainkirks choice of bullet points :rawr


              I think the important thing to remember is it's free content like Wizrddafertwarts said.

                    Spies disguised as the enemy can see the enemy team tags (ohno)

                    But that means the spy will be used even more for revenge kills because it's easy to sneak up on the right person.

                      Wouldn't the big domination symbol floating above their head be a clue aswell?

                        Well not if you're not trying to revenge them. In general naming no names Mingebag from The OC server will always come after you as a spy if you melee kill him let alone if you're dominating him
