I finally got to play my first ever MvM game and, after a rough stretch near the end resulting in a restart/class shuffle, won Doe's Drill as a Natascha Heavy.  Damn useful weapon.  I was doing all right as a Scout on my first go with the Shortstop/Crit-a-Cola but the rest of the team was too disorganized to keep the bomb from getting through most of the time.

Anyway, 'twas enjoyable, and I'm looking forward to playing more with some competent teammates.

Always up for a game, if I'm not too absorbed into anything.

Machina with maxed Firing speed, charge, and damage is now my MVM weapon of choice.
It's like a damn .50cal machinegun.

I probably could have gone with a Scootergun and we'd have been totally fine. That was a fun game. Max reload speed, max clip FAN, so good. and almost full damage, it does 388 a shot with crits, and you can almost do 2 full clips of 6 in the 5 second window of a criteen.

e - that was a fun 'nother two rounds. That just leaves me with the fuckoff hard Decoy mission, and the Endurance one. Didzo, Reeve, Vongief, Sogo, and Kor are all GOOD MENS. As is Negate, even if he dropped <3

Also. 18 round clip for a fully upgraded Scattergun, crazy shit.

There needs to be an additional difficulty tier now that we have honed our skills in the art of robot destruction.

Also, projectile destruction/deflection for heavy still sucks. It's almost impossible to destroy projectiles due to no hitboxes.

I'm telling you man, it's just too strong to not have against Super Sollies of both flavours. I find aiming up or down into the projectiles is what causes the deflection.  Demo's are a different breed, I can agree there's less than perfect interaction when trying to shoot those.

Really?  'Cause Super Soldiers curl up and die when I fight them.  If they're looking at me, they do zero damage.

That was fun, I always have that fear of getting kick due to steam/my pc acting up. I wounder if they'll fix it so if someone was in a mann up mode with friends & got kick by lost connection or some other reason. at lease allow them to rejoin.

I guess my issue is that I tend to stay back as a second turret most of the time, so the Super Soldiers rarely end up focusing fire on me first.

We never finished anyways. We had a quick collaboration, figured me and Kor's reduced damage+lack of a solly was our downfall.

Play at least a few rounds ticketless, learn what upgrades are worth it and which ones are better for just dicking around. Learn what you're good at in the gamemode, then see if you wanna spend the money on actual tickets for fame and prizes.
