Ew no, i do not want TFC's LOL LEGSHOTS (if a sniper shot you in the leg, you became slower AND THE EFFECT STACKED, until you died or somehow actually got healed by a medic) brought back.

Thumper - Doesn't do headshots, but each shot has a knockback effect. Useful for snipers "on the go" that need those pyros to stay away.

Bear Trap - Hard to see when emplaced. Slow the enemy hit for a few moments.

Boomerang - Has a complicated throwing arc and you're out of them until it comes back, but deals damage to every enemy it hits on its course.

Didgeridoo: not actually a gun at all, but a musical instrument. Playing its haunting melody is a continuous effect that reduces the firepower of any enemy within range. Because of its great length, you can hide behind a corner and play it.

Vegemite

When used, you stand still, and lose 10hp per second until dead.

Sniper rifle with MULTIPLE LEVEL ZOOM-IN*, but does way less non-headshot damage and charges slightly slower. Maybe can only headshot 100% of the time on max-zoom, less zoomed in has x% chance of fucking up.

*level one: not very zoomed in at all, allows a larger view-angle
level two: normal zoom
level three: extreme zoom that lets one have much greater confidence in their head-shooting. (Doomed to be deemed, EasyMode snoipin')

except that the head disappears extremely quickly from the frame as soon as the target moves

What? You don't have ludicrously high mouse sensitivity? (I actually do)

Bongo Bill · « **Reply #211 on:** April 03, 2009, 08:07:23 PM »

High mouse sensitivity doesn't matter if they're not visible for long enough for you to track their movement.

MAYBE IF YOU DIDN'T SLATHER IT ON LIKE A BIG FAT STUPID PIG YOU WOULDN'T FIND IT SO UNPLEASANT

ELEPHANT GUN
You can no longer get headshots, but any shot against a heavy is a crit. Does not scope. Sniper will make elephant noises after two or more successive kills against heavies.

FART GUN

you shove the rifle up your ass. if you hit anything, ever, it dies.

Bal · « **Reply #217 on:** April 03, 2009, 11:18:56 PM »

Bongo's point on not increasing the frequency of headshots is an important one. I think lessening the damage and therefore the headshot potential is a good idea, so long as you also give this new gun some kind of effect that is equally valuable, and not overly specific. What I don't want to see is more slowing and stunning. One thing my time in MMOs has taught me is that taking control away from a player is no fun at all. The amount of it existing in the game right now is about as much as ever needs to be. If you count the area denial of the sentry and the sticky bomb, player movement is restricted enough.

I'm really not sure what you could give the sniper that would be interesting for the sniper, and for other players, but I look forward to seeing Valve's solution.

Bongo Bill · « **Reply #218 on:** April 03, 2009, 11:20:55 PM »

Shoot someone with it and they fly straight up in the air, but not quite enough to take falling damage. Also works on teammates.

Bal · « **Reply #219 on:** April 03, 2009, 11:27:16 PM »

That's still movement restricting, also what soldiers already do.
