The rumors are that the Scout will be the next class updated in Team Fortress 2. What are your ideas for possible achievements/weapons?

Here are a few of my ideas:
Achievements:

"Yo, what's up?"- Kill a Heavy eating a sandvich
"Minuteman"- Capture all control points on a map within 60 seconds
"Boston Marathon"- Run a total distance of 26.2 miles
"You like that, don't you?"- Kill 50 medics with your bat
"I'm flying here!"- Double-jump a total distance of 1 million feet

Weapon:

"The Boston Slugger"- lv. 10 bat, -25% damage, reflects rockets and grenades on successful hit

Weapons:

Uzi - Same damage as pistol, 30 rounds, extremely inaccurate but high rate of fire
Sawn off sawn off - Holds 2 rounds, replaces pistol, same damage as Scout's normal shotgun, but the disadvantage is the small ammo capacity
Plank with nail in - +50% damage when enemy is hit in head, - 30% damage any where else

Weapons:

9 iron - 50% more range than the baseball bat, 4% more damage (GET IT!?)

I want the demoman updated, the scouts are annoying enough!

Those actually sound like the sort of things that Valve would do. Well done!

I think Valve are actually asking people on forums for ideas for the other class updates at the moment ;)

Scouts are my favorite, so I'm happy.

They aren't rumors, I believe in the official TF2 blog they said so. Either way, I don't really care what the weapons will be, I'm sure Valve will come out with something interesting. Scouts aren't my favorite, but I like them a lot so as long as the update doesn't have major changes I'll be happy.

Well, that answers things for those who take things at first glance. It looks very well done though

The shotgun looks like it's from doom or something, not like that's bad I'm just saying.

This is so silly and awesome. I can imagine a soldier being dumbfounded by a reflected crit rocket. Although, the Pyro already has this ability.

I'm all for a Two-By-Four with a nail in it, though.

Hell yeah, grenade spammers are EVIL.

The demo man has always been an odd class even back in the quake days. Some people manage to truly master the class and are fearsome to anyone, and are well suited to either offense or defense. Most people seem to hope that a giant field of pipebombs by the flag are all it takes to be a badass.

I've seen this floating around

Looks very fake, but very well thought out.

Read the smallprint. It's not real. Someone did the same for Spy and, by the looks of it, sniper.

Those are some TOUGH achievements, and I think some of them (Like "How You Doing?" are near impossible to code effectively)

Made of wood.

I know. Thats why I said it was a fake. A well thought out fake, but a fake nonetheless.

Damn, sorry: didn't notice the text after the picture.

Apologies.

And yes, it does look well done, but I think the spy one (which I can't seem to find) seemed more plausible; those weapons look too convoluted.

I'll ape an idea for a scout weapon I heard from someone else. Cap gun. 100% critical while capping a point. I like it.

Plus the fact that the shotgun is from Gears of War. That pretty much tells you right there it's fake.

Me also likey; very inventive and has that slightly irreverent humour that Valve are known for having.

Haven;'t played GoW so didn;t recognise it, but I did think it looked out of place.

The only downfall with TF2 updates is the over population of the class in question, since the spy update happend all servers seem to have total retards playing spy just because they think its easier now, which it is in some ways. I'll be honest, the last thing I want or need on servers is more bloody scouts lol.

What spy update would this be?

Spys rechange their cloak with ammo pickups.

Ahh right, I;d forgotten that that had been done in the recent update.

Well, thats the one upside about the 360 getting sod all so far. We're getting all the updates as one big pack once their finished...hopefully.

EDIT: Found the fake spy update for anyone who wants to see. The look of the weapons make it almost plausible, but the knife replacement...not so much

Oh, and heres the fake sniper update

http://www.ubercharged.net/wp-content/uploads/2008/08/sniperupdate.png

And I just found a engineer one too

http://www.sheezyart.com/view/1893404/

Bean ball - A thrown baseball that slows your target down for a brief time.

Spiked bat - 50% slower swing, 50% crit bonus.

Whiffle bat - -50% damage, deflects all rockets and explosives and beanballs.

Achievements:
Bronx Bomber - kill 25 enemies while in mid-air.
Safe at home - with only 25 health left, heal in your home base (10 times)
Round the bases - Cap every point on the map.
Bloody Cleats - kill an enemy while standing on his head.
Slight glitch - kill 10 sentries.
Pound the pork - kill 25 heavies with your bat.
Hot lead injection - kill 25 medics with your pistol.
Scatter brains - kill 25 engineers with your scattergun.
Boom goes the dynamite - kill 10 demos with their own explosives.

I'm really looking forward to this update. Scout's my favourite by far, but he's simply useless on a lot of maps (when I play him. I need space and choose to avoid chokepoints).

I'd like the bat to be replaced by a baseball that distracts a sentry from the Scout who threw it for a few seconds. Could also be hit by a bat that does no crits or something.

Hope some sentry-distracting device won't land on the pistol slot. I love that thing too much to replace it with anything else.

I am looking forward to it, but not because it enhances the scout.

What happens when a new update like this comes out? The class gets whored. Which class gets the most screwed by sentries, heavies and pyros...
