Gameplay-wise, it seems like a Scout with SMG, tracking capabilities, speed boost, and item carrying.
[QUOTE=Smashman;17428512]It's a joke you idiot.[/QUOTE]
I know it's a joke :downs: Are you really that dumb to think I can't tell the difference? I can have a opinion on idea (even if it is a joke).
[QUOTE=SlickBlade;17428367]...but when have you seen a spy running straight into battle firing...[/QUOTE]
When he's a retard, which is just about 80% of all Spies I see. And they're always on [i]my fucking team[/i].
[quote]...or a sniper trying to keep teamates safe...[/quote]
You've clearly never met a good, and smart, offensive bowman. I've seen a number of Snipers focus more on supporting a push by moving with the crowd than on point whoring, and even though I don't consider myself 'good' in any aspect, I always try and help out my team mates, especially Medics, Engineers and Spies.
[quote]...or a demo firing nades infront of temates to protect them?[/quote]
Not in front of, but I've been known to dive behind a teammate to save their ass. Sure, it's fairly likely you aren't even gonna get a Z+2, but it's worth the 6 thankless deaths to have a Medic, Scout or Pyro look fondly on you for a match or two and save your ass in return.
I'd also like to take the time to note that we need more Pyros willing to stand in front of sentries and reflect projectiles away when the Engineer's dead or otherwise unavailable. I think I'm the only person I've ever seen willing to take a rocket or two to save the team's defense.
[QUOTE=BackflipHatchetAttack;17428364]The only problem with this is that all the TF2 characters have character, which the dog cannot have due to it not being able to talk.[/QUOTE]
I beg to differ.

Those damn furries! :downs:
It's an overpowered Scout.
But would still be a cool idea.
That's an amazingly well done hoax. It actually sounds interesting to me.

Yeah those german shepherds sure are furry.
[QUOTE=Smirnoff Joe;17428205]Can't help but feel it'd be better as an Engie's Sentry unlock, though.

K-9!

It's a nice hoax, but pretty obviously fake.
I wouldn't mind if the Engineer got a "Guard dog" sentry/teleporter/dispenser unlock though.
Although my idea for that is probably more of an angry pitbull chained to a stick, or something like that.
If there's anything that could fit the Sentry Unlock, then this idea, with several tweaks, could probably fit that job description.

It'd be a horrible Sentry Unlock.
It's nothing like a sentry!

Just like how a sandvich is nothing like a shotgun!
And like how Bonk! is nothing like a Pistol, or how Jarate is nothing like an SMG.
Unlocks differ from the original in more ways than just stats changes.
I want that dog model though.
Luckily it isn't real.
[editline]04:06PM[/editline]
Some of the features are good though.
Interesting concept, but if you go down to the bottom of the page, it's all blurry.
Obviously fake though, they wouldn't add in another class.
Looks like something the engineer would build (Not the dog, the thing that the dog is carrying)
I laughed because that fourm has 35 pages after only a few hours.
Are you guys serious? This is retarded. I don't want a freaken dog running around in my tf2. How is this a good idea at all? Why does steam forums have 42 pages on it? Holy shit

They said they were toying with the idea of adding another class.
[QUOTE=Wilsonwiz;17428170]
I don't think its real[/QUOTE]
:geno:
sounds a bit overpowered to me
would make an interesting mod.
If someone could actually mod it in.
I don't know about this. People thought the Jarate update on April Fools was fake, but now I'm throwing piss at every moving thing in a game.
Would love the idea though. Just needs a little balancing, is all.
Too bad it's probably never going to be released. I bet it's just a joke meant to tease us. Besides, the original TF didn't have dogs... :frown:

Indeed. Not all things are false, yet not all things are true. There's always the chance that this is totally false, yet there's also the possibility that in 6 months there'll be gun-toting guard dogs running around Gravelpit.
