'Bonk' Energy Drink Added to TF2 Scout Update
I Am a Frickin' Blur Here!
by Coop
The second addition to the Scout's new arsenal has been announced on the Team Fortress Blog: 'Bonk' Energy Drink. I could be a dick and mention that just two days ago I guessed that Red Bull would be added to the game, but I'd like to think that I'm above that. Oh, wait, never mind, I'm not. Called it!
As shown in the image above, 'Bonk' will speed up the Scout and make him harder to hit with bullets. Fear not, however, it comes with a balance, and word on the street is that aside from causing him to lose his pistol, 'Bonk' has one hell of a crash. Here's the exact description, which isn't as descriptive as it is telling.
Note: Bonk! contains several hundred times the daily recommended allowance of sugar. After the beneficial effects of the radiation wear off, drinkers have reported experiencing feelings of lethargy that can last several seconds. Reading this sentence absolves Bonk! of any liability for killing sprees inspired by or deaths resulting from the ingestion of Bonk! Enjoy Bonk! responsibly… Or by the case!
The blog also goes on to list all of the achievements, which can be found here. Just one replacement item left - something to exchange his shotgun for. Peering into a crystal ball shows the Scout gaining something to make him more effective from longer range, possibly a different type of shotgun. We'll see soon enough, as the Scout update is only days away at this point.

When are some updates coming to the 360?
Never, Pimp. Its already been too long. Let's face it they aren't giving us crap. Thankfully I have it on PC too.
"the Scout gaining something to make him more effective from longer range, possibly a different type of shotgun."
"longer range . . . shotgun."
Oh, Coop. :3
The Sandman is Scout's long-range upgrade. We're probably going to see the return of the Nailgun or a different take on the Scatter.
I meant a longer range version of his shotgun, not necessarily a shotty with a scope.
Though...
The free L4D DLC has given me renewed hope that valve will be allowed to give TF2 its rightfully deserved free DLC on the 360. [fingers crossed]

Knowing the TF2 team, his new scattergun will probably be a "Summon" attack that makes his 7 other older brothers 'port out of nowhere and beat the shit out of your target.
