Spy identifier for your own team would be amazing.
I am constantly going "it's me it's me it's me" over comms while being bounced around by rockets or pipes while trying to leave my own base, or chasing an enemy. I think I'm being sneaky about to shank someone, and my own team shoots me in the ass with a rocket sending me off to timbuktu.

Pro-tip: Disguise as YOUR team on the way out of the base. Switch to Enemy disguise in water.
Pro-tip: Just press your mic button, no need to say anything. The indicator above your head should be enough. Yes, it works for me.

I usually disguise as my team until I get to the enemy base, and holy shit does it break some people's brains.

Yes, a sign above the spies head, only when disguised, would be a godsend and would eliminate the disruption to their gameplay from their teammates confusion.
Also with spies, a damage reduction to their pills would be good, as they're way overpowered imo. The spy gas grens should really just be there to cause confusion and paranoia in the enemy ranks, not constantly wiping out their HP through (legitimate) spam. It's even more noticeable (and disruptive) when there are two spies (legitimately) spamming gas nades.
Also, a reduction in damage to the sniper AR is needed. That thing is way too overpowered. | |

A potential weakness disguising as your own team is the speed discrepancy and your team thinks you are an enemy spy. Medic just about covers your best disguise. I think it's funny, personally; but your teammates might be wondering why their own medic will not heal them. The only way to avoid hurting their feelings is to notify them about the disguise. At any rate, they expected this behavior from a medic anyways. | |

Yeah, which is why I mentioned "Pro-tip #2". All anyone would have to do is see "Oh, hey, that's <so and so>" then pull up the scoreboard.... "Oh, hey, he's a Spy! That's why he didn't heal me!" | |

All secondary grenades disappear if on the bridge area other than concs. Too many players spend the whole round spamming the bridge blindly. I don’t care where the flag is. | |

True, but fortunately not everyone picks up on the speed discrepancy. The actual reason I disguise as my own team isn't to evade getting team-shot — it's so I don't telegraph to the enemy that there's an obvious spy incoming. Even after they find out, I'll do what I can to make them think I gave up and changed classes.

Ha, there's some truth to that. If we're losing with two minutes left in the round, I'm not going further than second floor to heal anybody.
Digressing a bit: sometimes I'll be in spawn as medic or engy while I grab a drink or check on something. And some newbie will spam "Medic!" and start whacking at me with their melee weapon trying to get me to heal or repair armor FOR 20 SECONDS instead of grabbing the damn health packs sitting there two feet away.
Second digression... Sometimes an infected teammate at entrance/battlements will call for medic, and they'll be out in the open. And I'm a medic taking cover just a few feet away trying not to get headshot for the tenth time. If you're ever in this situation, please just take cover so I can heal you. I promise I'm not trying to be an asshole. | |

Wondering if the timing of this post and my new spray is a coincidence. | |

Good one, how about bridge spams get 5 minute kick. | |

(1) Not a fan as we're D heavy already.
(2) !time
(3) It's not Drippy's if old K-mov isn't asking people to sit down for his/her imaginary tea party. He/she does serve nice buns.
(4) Yes please
(5) This might get people to move their arse towards the flag alright - would be nice. | |

Oh. You didn't realize its intentional? 8-)
Actually a same-team spy identifier would be useful. Ootgoing spies usually aren't a problem for me, but when you have a D spy its annoying as I'm constantly wasting shots & grenades on them. Takes too long for soldiers to reload to just be wasting them on my own team . | |

Third digression: if there is a flag run and the flag is anywhere past mid spiral, as a medic, I am going for the flag 90% of the time and not healing your sorry ass unless you're in the designated area across spawn or in my direct line of sight. I've had people complain about not being healed right away when the flag is sitting top spiral. Go for the damn flag. (not you, Lonerangers, you meaning in general). Sometimes I swear people forget there's an objective.
There's some good ideas in this thread, but miss me with that bridge spam stuff. When the enemy team has control of the bridge and are free-flowing into our base, bridge spam is a necessary tactic. Imho.
