Major Update Speculation: V8: Rise of the Machines! - Games

[url]http://steamcommunity.com/groups/TF2GCMannUp[/url] Time to Mann Up ladies...

[QUOTE=Kapellmeister;37290595]Good thing that they're finally realizing that I don't want to use non-strange weapons.[/QUOTE]Unfortunately for someone who wants to have a strange collection, this is 18 more weapons to add to my list :c

Oh fuck yeah, to hell with my Strange Wrench, Botkiller all the way.

[QUOTE=Psychopath12;37290577]All of the botkiller items are strange, allegedly.[/QUOTE] Yeah, definitely something of potential interest. I want to say the gold ones are stranges, but that trade busted the theory as it isn't a gold botkiller item.

[QUOTE=Tacos;37290533]What? [url]http://tf2tp.com/trade.php?trade=7835027[/url][/QUOTE] I'd just like to point out that it's sort of funny that so many days has past yet we still don't fully know everything about MvM, even something as simple as whether or not a weapon drop has a Strange quality. I don't know whether to blame the lack of information from the MVM page at the tf2 blog or something else.

[QUOTE=PimpinDemopan;37290754][url]http://www.teamfortress.com/post.php?id=8672[/url] Am I late, everypeoples?[/QUOTE] So late it isn't even funny

[QUOTE=wickedplayer494;37290792]So late it isn't even funny[/QUOTE] I wouldn't say it's [I]that[/I] late.

I'm curious about Botkillers. If they are guaranteed stranges is this a REALLY cheap way to get miniguns?

[QUOTE=Psychopath12;37290625]Unfortunately for someone who wants to have a strange collection, this is 18 more weapons to add to my list :c[/QUOTE] 18 more weapons that you'll be paying out the ass to afford as well :v: I mean seriously, he sold that knife for earbuds.. Good luck with getting your hands on all of those items.

[QUOTE=Simski;37290836]18 more weapons that you'll be paying out the ass to afford as well :v: I mean seriously, he sold that knife for earbuds.. Good luck with getting your hands on all of those items.[/QUOTE] you know, it's not like Strange Miniguns and Scatterguns were easy enough this shit is not making things better

[QUOTE=Sardonus;37290844]you know, it's not like Strange Miniguns and Scatterguns were easy enough this shit is not making things better[/QUOTE] I don't quite follow

[QUOTE=Simski;37290857]I don't quite follow[/QUOTE] theyre expensive

[QUOTE=tso;37290877]theyre expensive[/QUOTE] and that's sort of what my original post implied, I'm really unsure where we're supposed to be going with this

I traded for a Strange Festive Sticky Launcher last christmas, I don't even want to talk about it (I think I lost my liver somewhere in the process) NEVER AGAIN

Server message: Matchmaking and stuff will be down in 5 minutes.

we're arguing about nothing while we're unable to play i thought that was it

Just received a message during gameplay that matchmaking, item servers and all valve servers, etc. will be down in 5 min. Edit: hogofwar has dem lightiningg typin' skills. Respect.

[QUOTE=Simski;37290857]I don't quite follow[/QUOTE] I was just saying, it's hard enough buying a regular Strange Minigun, adding ones with fancy lights or robots on them that are 10 times the price is not making things easier why can't we have cheaper miniguns dammnit I want to track my Heavy kills, my options are Brass beast or Natascha, why

go brass beast then! mo' damage, mo' good

[QUOTE=tso;37290969]go brass beast then! mo' damage, mo' good[/QUOTE] I have a Brass Beast. It's damaging, but you move too slowly to be an offensive Heavy, you're just way too open Sasha will always be my one true love

At least this'll give us some idea of the timing of tonight's update.

[QUOTE=wickedplayer494;37291001]At least this'll give us some idea of the timing of tonight's update.[/QUOTE] Ah I see, so it doesn't necessarily mean that we will get the update itself immediately after the message.

[QUOTE=Simski;37290836]18 more weapons that you'll be paying out the ass to afford as well :v: I mean seriously, he sold that knife for earbuds.. Good luck with getting your hands on all of those items.[/QUOTE] Well, the other option is to earn them through MvM play, which is cheaper money-wise, but costlier time-wise. And of course, trade the dupes. Beats the hell out of paying a bud for a weapon anyone can earn, imo.

Am I the only one disappointed the AWPper Hand is just a reskin? Given the stopping power of the AWP, I would have assumed the stats would be [b]AWPper Hand[/b] +On Full Charge, Enemies are pushed back -No unscoped shots -Requires scoping for 1 second before firing

I was expecting a reskin, and I'm happy with what I got. I'm just surprised they didn't announce the promo when the preorders started. Also, since we're talking about the AWP, no unscoped shots wouldn't fit in with the AWP's personality.

i need to know this urgently. Is there a way to raise the playercount in MvM?
