MvM Discussion Megathread: Do Androids Complain of Overpowered Upgrades?

Thematic question for you here: why did you pick medieval mode for such a modern looking map?
Looks great regardless. Meeting a horde head-on as they march across the bridge will be good fun.
the real reason is because [sp]i'm not a good enough mapper to balance or optimize around firearms[/sp]
medieval mvm is wicked fun and terribly unknown. i just love it. try out mvm_hillside on Sandy's to see for yourself
Me and punchy gonna do empire anyone wants to join?
Raffling a Strange Spec Streak (Manndarin) Atomizer, for lack of better things to raffle right now. Rate tools that tighten [url=http://tf2mods.net/mod.php?id=795]nuts[/url] to enter.

PSA on buying streak and spec streak unique weps for crafting, from the market or outpost
Make absolutely sure what you're getting is craftable. Uncraftable unique streak weps are rare but they slip by easily. I just jumped on a $1.89 spec HLH on the market which turned out to be uncraft. Now I have to find a place to get rid of it and hopefully not lose too much.
[editline]12th April 2014[/editline]
Evidently, I underestimate the naïvety of market buyers. Just sold for $1.74 + fees. Still, losing $.15 isn't the smartest thing I've done today.
I found a lobby full of people with mics
unfortunately, one was pre-puberty and kept asking us how to taunt and move
we told him alt+f4 and he said he knew that trick, he's "been on steam for 4 years"
someone made a joke about him googling the alt+f4 command because he was silent for so long, and that became a running joke the entire game
"heavy why the hell did you upgrade health regen"
"you should go google a heavy mvm tutorial
"is that any way to talk to a VETERAN of tf2?"
"how do i taunt and slide"
"google it"
"the heavy is afk"
"he's probably googling something"
it was a memorable match

"Alt+F4" is too old. Everyone here knows that you must instead delete C:/Windows/System32 folder in order to get everything works in your computer.
what if there was a mission with Gunslinger Robo-Engineers
Spuf would burn up with the hatred of a thousand suns
I'd see how many first timer switching from PVP to MVM will use Direct Hit just to counter those mini-sentries.
[QUOTE=TheFishyG;44544429]what if there was a mission with Gunslinger Robo-Engineers[/QUOTE]
They don't even try to build anything else. They just rush in like a plague of locusts and start building mini sentries fucking everywhere.
The boss for that mission will be a Giant Mini-Sentry
[QUOTE=HyperTails;44549707]The boss for that mission will be a Giant Mini-Sentry[/QUOTE]
giant Gunslinger Engineer
walks from the robo-spawn to the spawn, can carry the bomb, drops a mini every few seconds
[sp]infinite mini amount[/sp]
wouldnt actually be very hard
1 damage upgrade will 1shot any mini with all guns, and you can have 75% bullet resis + regen

When you say it that way, it sounds easy.
But this is how I imagine it in my head:

Does sapping just buildings in MvM work like in PvP (unlimited sappers)?
Or is there always a cooldown?
There's always a cooldown.

You will have to wait until the Sapped building is destroyed or the Engi-bot knocks off the Sapper for you to get it back

Hello, everyone.
Newbie to Mann Up MvM here, I've been playing Boot Camp MvM for a while now but only recently did I buy a few Tour of Duty tickets and start playing Mann Up mode. Still on first tour, Intermediate difficulty.
From what I've read so far, I'm the kind of "lol 0 tours completed noob" player who gets made fun of a lot, but I thought I'd drop in to say hi anyways.

they wouldn't necessarily be hard, but they'd definitely be fucking annoying
throw a giant QF Medibot and a horde of other robutts to accompany the Big-Ass Robofist, and you have yourself one motherfucker of a wave

Don't worry about it. You're playing intermediate, so that means you're not just somebody who decided to go and play advanced without any experience in the mode, and you seem like you're willing to learn about the mode.
Also, if anyone complains that you have 0 tours in intermediate, just ignore and laugh at them

If I tried Advanced, I'd be unhelpful in a lot of situations since I'm not particularly experienced yet, to say nothing of Expert. I'm just starting out slow, improving in a setting within which I feel comfortable. And hey, even Intermediate can net you a Botkiller weapon, low tier notwithstanding, so why not? Anyways, thanks.
Actually, no one in the MvM servers themselves have made fun of me for it. Most of the people are just like me or have 1 tour completed otherwise. I'm just addressing the fact that a lot of Mann Up newbies tend to be obnoxious douchebags who are the butt of many jokes.
[QUOTE=TheFishyG;44544429]what if there was a mission with Gunslinger Robo-Engineers[/QUOTE]
A giant Engy Bot that drops mini-sentries once every X seconds would be cool for a final boss. It's the closest we can get to a boss that summon minions (really common on Tower Defense games).
so the best way to counter it is just to have 4 players surround him?
then there wont be any place he could put his minis

Critical punchs.

I can't help but feel like crowding around a giant bot like that is a bad idea.
time to create a new mission, Mecha Mini-Engine
every wave has mini-sentries in some shape, way, or form
[sp]one wave has 100 Robofists, a la that one Spy wave on Bigrock[/sp]
