Day 3: Mann Up, Maggots

Mimpy — Wed, 15 Aug 2012 23:47:07 +0000

Day 3 is officially released at http://www.teamfortress.com/mvm/bounty/

35 new achievements, and a whole ton of new cosmetic items.

Now, to get these cosmetic items it is REQUIRED that you spend money, however they do not affect gameplay (also they are all hideous). The rest of the update is 100% free, so no worries.

The actual update is expected to hit in about an hour or less, so get ready to put on your big boy britches, you spineless worms.

LET'S GET DOWN TO BUSINESS

TO DEFEAT, THE (Automo)TONS!

Okay, I'm gonna try and make a small stratedgy list here, in order of classes

Scout: First things first, YOU ARE EXPENDABLE. You have instant respawn and the fastest speed to get back in the fight. Flank them when as much as you can, and since you can pick up cash from a farther distance, you'll be doing those runs when there is a pause in the chaos. We split cash.

Soldier: Launcher.... Groups... Good....

Pyro: Super Defense, That flare gun has some tweaks to it which I imagine will rival some some snipers.

Demoman: You have THE best defensive weapon in the game, But keep that grenade launcher nearby. I imagine putting some bombs infront of a sentry to get rid of those sentry busters would be a splended Idea.

Heavy: Tank that damage, if you are not overhealed, scream medic until he hates you enough to over-heal you. I imagine a good kritzkrieg paired with those penetration and pushback rounds would be pretty scary, if they could feel fear.

Engineer: I think a widowmaker seriously is the best weapon for you. WIDOWMAKER WIDOWMAKER WIDOWMAKER.

Medic: He really is the most important class. Not in terms of damage, but in terms of.... healing...and... stuff....

Sniper: Stay back early on and do small target picks, until you upgrade your rifle, then go on a crazed gunman spree. the only issue is what secondary to use, Jarate, Or Carbine. Because that thing WILL be scary after it's first kill.

Spy: Your role really hasn't changed, has it? Wait for your upgrades and sap everything. Ambassador might not be the best option for you, but that's all up to the player. Any disguise will fool them.

Let's try not to suck.

Day 2: Ways to Suck Less

Mimpy — Wed, 15 Aug 2012 02:20:10 +0000

Upgrades are available in MvM, you can boost abilities like damage, firing speed, and reload times on any class to make you not quite as worthless as you currently are against these robots.

Any and all weapons can be upgraded to godly proportions.

One use item upgrades include:
Disposable Ubercharges
Critical Boosts
Infinite Ammo
Instant Retreat to Base
Instant Building Upgrades

Scouts respawn instantly, Medics have upgraded uber duration, Heavies knock robots back, and lots more. Check the main update page at http://www.teamfortress.com/mvm/mercs/ for full information.

Considering all these attributes have been deemed balanced, those robots are going to put up a hell of a fight. It's time to finally live your dreams of being cannon fodder, and if that isn't your dream you better get used to cold hard reality.

Yes if you didn't look at the MVM website you missed it. If you did and you scrolled all the way to the middle you would see it. Just visit the website right here.

What we know so far.

Jorkin D. Peenorson — Tue, 14 Aug 2012 05:22:04 +0000

There will be many robots, all at a health Lack, anywhere from 50^ oh health to 75% of health.

There shouldn't be any boss robots for a small bit, but eventually, one each wave.

SPY ROBOTS, MOTHERFUCKERS, The announcer tells us how many are still around

Medkits are around, and medics will help. You may purchase upgrades for your weapons (Reload speed, fire rate, that stuff)

Ammo and DOSH are collected from the Robots, Grab it while you can.

Sentrybusters: Essentially, Robo-creepers.

Boss robots: Giant-ass heavy, Giant-ass soldier with a machine rocket launcher gun thing. Giant-ass scout that moves faster than hell.
