It all seemed like common sense to me. It's not a bad movie though!

Quite a good little video, although as said above the players are either a bunch of 5 year olds or they have some sort of problem with thier eyes, but it is informative, and i think it might help me since i suck as spy's :P

Is the spy class broken these days?
I tried it yesterday and I'm sure you should be able to backstab people from cloaked, however most of the times I tried my fire button did nothing and all I could do was run into people and get shot.

lol, no you can't backstab people under stealth xD you need to get out of cloak first and then get to the person, that's where the disguises come in handy ;)

Missed out a coupla key facts asfais

1:In a straight sapper vs wrench fight on a buildng (you sap, he wrenches the sap, you sap again, and you never hit the other player), you will win due to your saps being instant and doing damage whilst his wrenches take 2 hits to kill.

2: Every disguise save for the spy has a use, there is no hard and fast rule for which one to use (though demo or pyro is a good standard one to go for), Going with the situation will work best.

3:Dont forget when you use the chat commands ("SPY", "GO GO GO" etc) when disguised the ENEMY team sees them as well, use this to blend in better and even shift suspicion by pointing out OTHER players on the enemy team to the enemy team as spys.

4: DO NOT RUN AWAY FROM PLAYERS, pyros are to be avoided but do it subtlely take the other route to the point that the pyro is taking etc, dont look straight at anyone whilst trying to get your bearings, staring right at an enemy pyro attracts attention...

5: The heavy disguise has a psychological effect on enemy players, i myself sometimes over look heavies that might be spies simply due to the fact: 1)they dont fire often except on the front lines 2) They are huge, and the spy is tiny, it seems obvious its a disguise once you know but subconciously you doubt theres a tiny little spy hidden in there and 3) your a much more attractive target to medics, if you have a medic on you, you wont get looked at twice with a suspicious spy eye, AND if your lucky you might get an uber out of it...

I guess I must be thinking of rogues in wow then. I think we should put friendly fire on just for a laugh, so I stand a chance at being a spy.

God I feel stupid now, but I am, so it's ok.

Here's a question - if a spy is disguised as a heavy, will they run at normal spy speed, or slower heavy speed? Same question for soldiers.

I know they can't run as fast as a scout (can they?) but can/do they slow down for other classes?
