Major Update Speculation: V8: Rise of the Machines!

[Ferdam]

Uh, I couldn't read much of this thread, but could anyone tell me if there's some way to host a MvM server that allows more than 6 human players ?

Thanks.

I don't believe such a way has been discovered yet.

Valve please update your servers so I can waste my money on tickets and vouchers.

Please Valve update your crates so I can waste my money on Crate Keys.

[QUOTE=ned_ballad;37292530]there's an unused robot that is a heavy at half scale with the all-father, point n shoot, mittens and 100% crits.

The "Heavy Weapons Gnome" is what it's called, it's never used though. There's also a Brass Beast Heavy giant that isn't used.[/QUOTE]
Brass Beast is a better defensive weapon.
Maybe brassbeastbot will be used in the hypothetical robot defense mode?

None yet but it shouldn't be too long until someone makes a sourcemod for it.

Do you pronounce "Boubouille" "ba-boo-ee"?

EDIT: So is there any guaranteed way of obtaining a robot hat? Because from my understanding you get a random item from a mann-up mode successful mission.

There's no denying that Ricochet was both the best and worst game ever made.

[ned_ballad]

Oh my god.

Three long hours against the robots.

But I did it. I did it with my brother and a group of cool random dudes. I won a gold club and a new pyro backpack.

No seriously
You all united youselves to drop a Pyrobotic backpack

I need these god damn tickets, I want this backpack

[BanthaFodder]

We've been playing Mann Up for 2 hours and counting.

[JoeJohns]

Gold club? Nice

[gaminji]

I'm still rather confused.

Does using a Mann Up ticket to join a Mann up Server guarantee you a new item at the end of the level?

or is it just random items?

Random items, however someone I played with did end up getting the new robot scout hat, but I'm not sure if the mission we were on was his final one or not.

[ned_ballad]

it's not a guaranteed new hat, but the new hats seem to drop very frequently, almost weapon rate.

On my server of 6, we used one ticket and got 2 drops each.

2 of us got new hats (me and my Pyro backpack and another dude got the robo Ushanka), everyone else got weapons.

My team won ctrl + alt + destruction on Coal Town and I only got the badge and a gunslinger.

[ned_ballad]

ps: The metal fancy fedora is set up for paint, but it's not turned on. It's the only new hat with this problem.

Well, another one for the schema 3.0 pile.

I am now going through the diffs, btw

there's an unused equip region in TF_English, named "TF_Wearable_Botkiller" "Botkiller"
Maybe the botkiller weapon things were going to be miscs somehow.

All I want is a U-Clank-a and a Botkiller Sniper Rifle.

Botkiller minigun is what I want. But I'll accept hats in the meantime.

[ned_ballad]

Botkiller wrench is really the only one worth my time looking for. The others I'll pick up as the price dwindles.

[Sardonus]

Oh, also I don't know if this is us being lucky or not but in both games we played 2 people got hats

is it like, 2 hats per game?

I think it's just random, no one in my game got any when we won.
