A more “diplomatic” weapon

Valve created one of the most popular online first-person shooters in the form of Team Fortress 2 because it offered players a wide variety of customization options and character classes in order to create specific experiences for any type of gamer.

The newest update scheduled to arrive for the game will bring a lot of new things for not one but two classes, as both the Sniper and the Spy will be on the receiving end of a wide array of goodies. From the Sniper's new offensive and defensive weapons to the Spy's new watches and achievements, TF2 players can definitely look forward to the end of this week when the content update will arrive.

Now, those who fancy the Spy class will have yet another thing to eagerly expect, in the form of a brand-new handgun, The Ambassador. Custom made for the finesse of the Spy, this new revolver-like weapon will pack a strong punch, as the team at Valve describes it: “It has the ammo count of a revolver and the pinpoint accuracy of a sniper rifle, even at long range.”

But don't think this power comes for free though, as a cool-down is necessary between shots, so you have to make every bullet fired count in order to defeat all of your enemies. The gun will be a bit on the heavy side but will certainly make every Spy's day when it will arrive in the new content update at the end of the week.

It looks like there's one more day to go, so the bets are on whether the Sniper will bring some new things to the table or remain in the shadow of the Spy, who backstabbed him and stole his update. Look forward to more news about this update soon.
