at least i own this hat...[/QUOTE]
holy fuck that utter lack of clipping.
tf coordinator service down?
[QUOTE=ObiWonTwo;37301987]Sniper: in my opinion, the most useless class for MvM. Every sniper I've seen does terrible, and ends up just gunning with SMG. What exactly is the point in sniping 1 of 20 scouts, when a pyro can run through and take out all of them? For larger targets, a soldier can do fine as well, while being useful for other smaller target groups. I'm not saying there is [I]no[/I] way to be a good sniper, but honestly, the type of damage you want to deal in MvM (a spread of medium consistent DMG) is pretty much the opposite of what a sniper is. [B]Jarate [/B]is nice though at times.[/QUOTE]
Jarate is [I]really[/I] good, whenever I've played MvM sniper I've run Sydney Sleeper, Bushwacka and Jarate. This is actually a really good set for taking down bots as well as dealing damage, since you're essentially amplifying the damage of your heavy-damage classes.
Spy is essentially useless in this mode, I think he's the worst class. The bots are just too aware to even have a hope of fooling them.

it actually looks better on soldier too

I love how even the Medic looks up-close to the Wrench.

You have to complete every Mann Up mission. You get a random rare strange weapon each time.

I believe so, yes.
Someone needs to give me 6 tickets to Mann Up so I can do a Tour of Duty Badge and one of those botkiller weapons.

Sorry for terrible image quality, dunno why it does that on Steam. But it looks shiny and awesome in-game.

Are they always gold ? :S
probably old but this was the first thing i thought of when gray was revealed in the birth certificate and i wonder if it popped up in other people's heads too

[QUOTE=psyke;37302368]Are they always gold ? :S[/QUOTE]
I believe so, but I'm not sure. I'm on my way to getting my second Strange weapon. I'll let you know when I find out.
[QUOTE=Benlecyborg;37302443]You can get silver ones too, I think the golden ones are rarer to get.[/QUOTE]
That's a bit bullshitty if your friend gets a golden one and you dont but you both did the same amount of work
I just played two (non-advanced) missions as scout.
MvM is so damn fun.

randomness is fun
apparently
I have to say, I think Valve did a great job on the hats this go around. Almost all of them are really subtle, fitting the character and yet being suitably robotic without being all eye-poppy. The Heavy is the exception to this, but even then it looks pretty nice.
My favorite one might have to be the Sniper's, truthfully. The metal flaps are an excellent touch.
[QUOTE=SLBros.;37301510]the only thing they share is the bridge over the point, but yes it was Viaduct.
Heavily modified. As in, Meet The Medic.[/QUOTE]
I mean, other than snow and a bridge prop... How do you know? Did valve confirm it?
Does it turn robots to gold? :v:
are the botkiller weapons counting people killed or bots killed?

Snipers are one of the most useful classes once they get their upgrades. They murder groups and big enemies. One charged shot from a Machina with the exploding headshots can clear an entire group or third the health of an Octoheavy and kill all his Medics.
It's all about HOW the classes are used, honestly. There is no "most useless" class.
[QUOTE=DaWhatTheFox;37299491]This is bullshit, I didn't receive any reward after beating a Mann Up mission with a friend of mine and other guys. But they did... Why...[/QUOTE]
So, I finally beat that mission again and guess what I got? A fucking Scottish Handshake. I demand a hat.

To be fair, it sort of makes sense to be grey, considering who they belong to.
