There were no assault rifles in the 60s, when TF2 takes place. There was the MP44, Germany in WW2 - first gun classified as an assault rifle (AFAIK, but 90% certain) Moving on, how about a spy knife slot-thingy, but it is a pair of scissors. Bear with me If used on a sentry gun, it could cut an ammo-belt, thereby getting rid of half the current ammo, leaving it dry twice as fast? Also, to counter-act that, a 50% damage reduction in melee.

That's because Tom posted this just after the very first content update came out that added the medic items, so he was coming up with ideas for the other classes. http://www.pentadact.com/2008-05-31-team-fortress-2-unlockable-ideas/#comment-234855 Anonymous Sun, 11 Sep 2011 16:35:32 +0000 http://www.pentadact.com/index.php/2008-05-31-team-fortress-2-unlockable-ideas#comment-234855 Why I ideas for the medic? http://www.pentadact.com/2008-05-31-team-fortress-2-unlockable-ideas/#comment-231712 Pentadact Thu, 14 Jul 2011 05:15:20 +0000 http://www.pentadact.com/index.php/2008-05-31-team-fortress-2-unlockable-ideas#comment-231712 Heh, cheers! http://www.pentadact.com/2008-05-31-team-fortress-2-unlockable-ideas/#comment-231699 NotBatman Wed, 13 Jul 2011 21:45:53 +0000 http://www.pentadact.com/index.php/2008-05-31-team-fortress-2-unlockable-ideas#comment-231699 I'm really impressed with this post. I was reading your TF2 guides and even though I've been playing for about 2 years, they are really solid guides that help refresh me on what I need to be teaching new players. I was amazed that almost all of the ideas that you presented here have been implemented in the game, so well done.

I hope you get my point. Besides, the AK-47 has been around since the late 40's. Don't be ridiculous.
