hope that valve revisits this item at some point!

Thanks. I've been browsing the twitter threads and watching videos on the leak. Crazy to think this thing was in the files. That would have been a decade ago though. It's cool to think Valve messed around with my weapon. That's really all I could ask for. Thanks Valve!

The older version of the weapon was found in the new TF2 leak btw

i hope this gets added

It appears Valve planned to add this for the scrapped Spy vs. Engineer update.

War paints were added 2 years after this item was made. Probably not, though I know next to nothing about how war paint actually works.
ShadowMan44 31 Jan, 2022 @ 4:40pm 
Would this be compatible with War Paints?

Value please add this to TF2 the spy class really needs this.

@Terraria Boss!(y-ment), You'll have to follow the GameBanana link in the description and download it manually. Be sure to follow the instructions to prevent crashes.

How Do You Download It?

@pootismootisbobootisbonanano.RAZ, Hah, that's awesome!

This is probably the best idea for a spy gun I've ever seen. Spy is a support class, sure he's meant to kill people, but not with his gun. His knife is really where it's at, and this will allow him and his teammates to know where his enemies are, and kill them faster.

The animation needs a bit of a rework but the weapon is fantastic in every other way
Skullboy28 29 Jun, 2015 @ 4:46pm

So, like the tracer from Battlefield Hardline?

ALso, add a bit more damage. You headshot the dude and it only did 42 damage.
fatmoths.com 26 Jun, 2015 @ 10:52am 
I don't think it would be added as it is almost the same thing as the tranquilizer from the beta of TF2. However it is a cool weapon, nice job making it dude!
Blk_Mage_Ctype 30 May, 2015 @ 1:54pm 
Seems a tad OP in its current form. The Highlight alone is more than enough to make this weapon viable, marking the enemy for death on hit is overkill.
Jeem Cari 30 May, 2015 @ 11:34am 
Its perfection! This item has the quality. I recommend that it is added to Team Fortress 2.
Informer 19 May, 2015 @ 8:42pm 
was this based off if me?
[WL] Weasel (Probably AFK) 19 May, 2015 @ 7:40pm 
Make me think of this ....

Strictly as a reconnaissance weapon, this would be GREAT! The mini-crits and other stat-relevant material, is risky, but clever. Though it seems well balanced because of the limited clip capacity. I'd use the hell outta this for reals.
Sly Marbo 19 May, 2015 @ 4:09pm 
Doesnt this seem kinda op and i just dont see a spy holding this......gun.....or whatever it is it just doesnt seem like a spy weapon
Mini_Marauder 19 May, 2015 @ 11:59am 
@GoldenBoy247 So you are saying to get rid of the entire purpose of the weapon? The entire purpose of this item is the tracking. The mini-crits are an add on. If you didn't notice, this gun is named the informer for the express purpose that it temporarily informs your team of the enemy's position. If anything the mini-crits need to be removed, but if you remove the outline you might as well just remove the workshop entry.
Duran Duran 19 May, 2015 @ 11:33am 
Very strategic weapon. I want this in tf2.
Apolloe 19 May, 2015 @ 10:47am 
This weapon would be brilliant, seems like something off a James bond movie where some one attaches a tracker.

But TRUST me it wont be op it just needs balancing for instance making a slow firing time or only 15% damage. Any old weapon could be op if not balanced out, valve does constantly change stats to even the game play. Its a thumbs up.

COOL VALVE ADD THIS!:csgox:
disrupted_thoughts 18 May, 2015 @ 8:30pm 
It would be much better if you can actually change the style, as like other melee weapons that you can change style from the loadout screen
Smile 18 May, 2015 @ 8:24pm 
this one's better :D

Melon_Man_Dan 18 May, 2015 @ 7:12pm 
I got the skin for it, but it doesn't give me the reload animation that I see in the video.
ChicknBurger 18 May, 2015 @ 4:31pm 
good idea but having all those darts are way to OP, i mean we shouldnt get a sapper bullet or something, good idea for sure
KevinDaKevin 18 May, 2015 @ 4:10pm 
THIS IS MY OPINION ABOUT THIS GUN, NOT YOURS. CAUSE I KNOW SOME HATERS OUT THERE @_@

Idk about your guys but this gun looks a SUPER too op. First of you got this gun that u can pretty much not only get the whole enemy team and track them all, but deal mini crits. I think the worst part is that your can see through walls... Like seriously why? The snipers will be aiming at the enemys head while looking through the wall until the enemy comes around the corner and then BAM headshot!! Now just think for a second. What if you were in the enemy team and a spy was using this weapon against you. It will pretty much make you really mad. If there is a spy wtih this gun and scouts running around the map. Then your fcked. I mean this gun sound really fun but just too OP and not as fun for the opponents. In conclusion I personally think u can take off the see through walls and just deal mini crits.
Kel 18 May, 2015 @ 3:27pm 
I really like the idea of being able to load different darts for the gun, not sure how that would work out (maybe a dart menu like the disguise menu??) but it would be an awesomely fun weapon to use. Even the default idea (tracking/see enemy through walls dart) is a perfect idea, gives the spy an excellent utility in exchange for self defense power. Additionally, the model fits the idea perfectly, is well made, and is different from the current revolvers. Well done sir!
sans 18 May, 2015 @ 1:21pm 
how do i use it?
Aurelia 18 May, 2015 @ 9:26am 
Nice weapon. Is very good. I like it
HEX66 18 May, 2015 @ 1:46am 
very cool
Diet Meth 17 May, 2015 @ 9:30pm 
Tranq gun from tf1
Techno 2 17 May, 2015 @ 8:48pm 
Beautiful. Spy has been needing a tranquilizer type gun for a long time now. This fits him perfectly. Stats can always be worked out, and I think the developer already has some really good ideas. I hope this is added.
8Leo 17 May, 2015 @ 6:29am 
-83% clip size... ugh
[d]raex 16 May, 2015 @ 8:43pm 
THIS IS NEEDED VALVE MUTHAFUCKING ADD THIS NOW!
zviith 16 May, 2015 @ 7:58pm 
This is a very unique weapon. It's perfect for adding even more of a support role to spy, tagging and highlighting enemies on the fly in firefights, and showing enemy health as well. It's very well balanced with the reload and reduced clip size, and the reduced damage. Please add this :)
TheNewEpic 16 May, 2015 @ 4:18pm 
Slow reloading, but very deadly >:)
Der Herr Doktor 16 May, 2015 @ 9:48am 
ONE OF THE BEST IDEAS!! WOWOW; VALVE, i hope(ahem), you add it
bonk 16 May, 2015 @ 8:42am 
yesh. hopefully in the next :crate: instead of hats
Shakkari 16 May, 2015 @ 4:04am 
No but seriously guys this IS what spy needs i mean he is a support class right?
