I hope we get it soon
I've put in a lot of time on the scout, second only to the engineer so I'm excited for his alt weapons
What do you guys think they will be?

Well I HOPE they use their best judgment and make the scout more useful on payload maps. He does not need a buff anywhere else, because as it stands he can 2 hit kill any class. And in the hands of an experienced player he is the best class with no counter. (Save a really nicely placed sentry gun, and the element of surprise.)

Guess they aren't using their best judgment.
Yey, it's gonna be just like the pyro update.

What was wrong with the pyro update?
And I'll probably use this weapon on and off. I'd use the bat on maps where double jumping isn't very useful, but a stun would be.
I would also use it for dicking around.

So in an attempt to balance it, they buffed his falloff damage, and gave him a weapon that let him have more HP then a solder. This made him overpowered. Of course, it was corrected a few months later and things are more balanced now.

Yeah, I think it's pretty cool.
I've been lurking on the TF2 steam forums and everyone's been complaining about it. I don't see what's so bad about it. It makes the scout run really fast, which pretty much makes him invinvible to bullets for a few seconds, but then afterwards he's slowed down because he crashed, which means he's an easy target. I guess the people over there just hate consumables
Also, lol @ Steam TF2 forums thinking it's a spy update.

Considering that one of the achievements is a ZZZ speech bubble, it might make him fall TOTALLY asleep for a bit. Or maybe there's a risk of that.
Can't wait to see it. Also, I bet ya that the blu and red teams have different flavoured BONK!.

Atomic Bomb Blueberry and Radioactive Rasberry?
And I read a list of all the Achievements and their descriptions, and apparently for that one you need to take the double-barelled shotgun(!) and kill 50 players from behind with it.
My favorite achievements are If You Build It and A Year to Remember(Kill 2004 enemies  )
