TF2 Spy - Nationality?

Skeeter · 22 Apr 2008 at 03:07

What do you guys think the aimed nationality of the Spy in TF2 is?

Personally I think he was aimed to be an upper class English Spy, but ened up being a mishmash of european stuff mangled together. I feel for a swarve sophisiticated spy, British is the best suited nationalty.

Ive tried to raise this on the Steam forums, but its quite difficult to have a civilized convorsation about this on a forum used predominantly by Americans seen as most of them dont even know where Europe is...

Good point, but your missing the key components of Eastern European and Far East...

You can download character soundclips here.

To me, he definetly sounds French, which is disappointing as there should have been an English class!

You must know some funny Italians.

He's quite clearly French.

Not sure, he's a bit of a Heinz Variety.

Thanks to m0r94n for the links to the sound clips, awesome.

Really? I thought he was some weird cockney. He says god save the queen which isn't very australian even though they are in the commonwealth.

Edit: He does sound a bit aussy now that you mention it!
