SonicRainb00m Posted August 14, 2012 Report Share Posted August 14, 2012 6? Guessing the sniper/spy/pyro ain't gonna be in it.And did anyone else get a 'Saxon Hale robot' vibe from the big thingy at the end?Well, we don't know if you get to choose classes or not, but probably not since 6 people could all choose Engineer. And about the end of the trailer, yeah I got a feeling it could be Saxon Hale robot or something, but people have seen sound files hinting at a giant Demoman. But hey, anything could happen.

ping111 Posted August 14, 2012 Report Share Posted August 14, 2012 I have 280+ hours clocked. I main in Spy and Heavy, but I'm a huge noob and I play on a laptop. I have a bunch of random mishmash weapons you can trade for. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
korok132 Posted August 14, 2012 Report Share Posted August 14, 2012 Beat me to it for the MvM update.If this isn't awesome, I'm going to quit TF2 cry be very upset.Now this is something we HAVE to get everyone in on. I know in the threads somewhere we've all posted our steam names, but for realzies this time, everyone either post their steam name or put it on their profile page thing.As I said before, I play under the name of Velvet Remedy. My picture is that of Velvet Remedy. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
SirShadowdeath Posted August 14, 2012 Author Report Share Posted August 14, 2012 Can't wait for this update. Seems like a great way to mix up the gameplay in TF2, while adding to the storyline and adding new "bounty". Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Anyway, my steam ID is "Warp Nacelle", feel free to add me. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

But hey, anything could happen.On a second veiwing It actualy looks like a giant Soldier. Maybe a random robot class gets supersized at the end for a final wave battle.I play under Penby. Easy to find. considering im the only one. Ever.....I think. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Sparkleheart Posted August 14, 2012 Report Share Posted August 14, 2012 Mine is Shake The Deaf Leopard, though I won't be able to get on for a week or two. Well, I *could*, but I don't really feel like risking the rest of my hardware on a failing power supply. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Bellosh Posted August 14, 2012 Report Share Posted August 14, 2012 Curious, it's been quite a while since I've last played some TF2. However, trying out the update will probably have to wait til I get a new set of headphones. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
MisterChippy Posted August 14, 2012 Report Share Posted August 14, 2012 MVM!!!! We need to put together a robot hunting group here! I'm considering trying to get some of my friends together, but I only know 2 people IRL who play TF2 IRL and they're both sub-par pyros. I, on the other hand, am the bestest pyro ever to live! (not really, but I'm pretty good) I'm not shabby as soldier either, and I know that the beggars bazooka's gonna come in handy in this new mode.This is gonna be so much fun!

BaconofChaos Posted August 14, 2012 Report Share Posted August 14, 2012 I just heard about this update. Looks like Valve finally found something that will get me playing TF2 again!Steam name: Diego Havoc. Add me. Let's do this. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
MisterChippy Posted August 14, 2012 Report Share Posted August 14, 2012 Okay I need some help, cause there's something I'm just not getting...I'm like the only person who can't seem to melee properly in TF2. What am I doing wrong?!Everyone is always faster, gets around behind me, and hits me before I'm even in range. Meanwhile it feels like I have to be right there to hit them, and even then it doesn't seem to do anything!I recently came into possession of a Strange Equalizer, but I'm feeling VERY unequal on the melee battlefield. Any tips?Ok, time to drop a little knowledge bomb here.All melee weps besides the scout's and those with firing speed modifiers have a delay of .25 secs from when you click to when they hit. This doesn't sound like much, but it makes the difference, especially with scouts. Also, with melee speed MATTERS. There's a reason the demo speeds up as he collects heads and has longer ranged weps. When you first start training melee I recommend the medic, since he does full melee damage and has +10% speed. Use the solemn vow so you can see which enemies are weak enough that you'll be able to take them out. Pyro is also good because it's got the highest health of any class that moves at 100% speed.Also, just randomly swinging is a bad idea, since you aren't likely to hit anything. Wait until you have your cross-hairs on the enemy, THEN attack. That way more attacks will hit.Finally, just get a feel for the range of your wep. During setup time on a map, face a way and slowly move back and forth swinging your wep until you find the furthest possible range you'll still hit at. Then repeat somewhere else. After a while you should have your range down. 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Sparkleheart Posted August 15, 2012 Report Share Posted August 15, 2012 BY THE WAY. Would anyone have an issue with potential teammates not using a mic? Since I'm not terribly super-confident about my voice... Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Kirby Krackle Posted August 15, 2012 Report Share Posted August 15, 2012 When my mic hook ups work and I actually coordinate with my team (more than "spy demo") I use my mic. Most of the time though I'm just a fast typist. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

My mic doesn't always work, so I normally don't even try using it.BTW is anyone interested in teaming up with me when MVM comes out to kick some robot tushy? I've already got 2 people who say they'll play, so I just need 3 more! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Sparkleheart Posted August 16, 2012 Report Share Posted August 16, 2012 Also, what times are good for everyone? Since I remembered that I'm also living in Hawaii and thus tend to be cut off from scheduled games a lot. >.< Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

SirShadowdeath Posted August 16, 2012 Author Report Share Posted August 16, 2012 Update was a fail imo.1. Barely any loot, all need Mann Up mode.2. Mode was really cool, but the server mechanic is non-sensible and generally awful.3. Mann Up Mode: Same idea as keys.Other than that, it was awesome.

Sparkleheart Posted August 16, 2012 Report Share Posted August 16, 2012 Yeah, the third day's update WAS certainly a disappointment.Still, robot horde mode. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

RandomUser Posted August 16, 2012 Report Share Posted August 16, 2012 Haha after being queued my estimated wait time was two hours for most servers. I'm gonna wait things out for a bit before trying to play MvM. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
