A First Look at the Sniper Update

[iQue]

Yes, Valve just released a first little hint at what's to come with the new Sniper update for Team Fortress 2. As part of Valve's efforts to give him something a bit more close quarters oriented, he got - a longbow.

Any experienced sniper will tell you how irritating it is when your targets keep moving around. The question is how to stop these cheaters from wind-sprinting around like they own the place. And the answer is to pin them to a wall. How? With arrows!

To read some more new delicious information, take a look at the official Sniper update page.

The only thing I'm a bit worried about is if it will have sort of stun/slow down effect... I say it's enough with the sandman and natasha

Just to be accurate, it's a longbow, not a crossbow.

Carry on. :)

Valve is already defending themselves.

The Huntsman already appears to be described that way, but not directly. Who knows.
