Robots are the enemies fought in Mann vs. Machine, during missions. They were created by Gray Mann in order to destroy everything created by Mann Co.
Contents
Gameplay
Regular robots function nearly identically to the players, being operated by bots, whilst special robots exist that use non-Stock weapons and other forms of robots exist with abilities and directives that no class normally possesses. Unlike players, robots can notably be sapped, temporarily disabling them often in groups, or in the case of giant robots, slowing them. As noted by Miss Pauling, they run on money, and they drop it when destroyed, allowing players to use that money to upgrade their weapons or buy a Power Up Canteen. Robots follow a set path to the bomb hole, marked by glowing blue arrows before each wave, though they may stray off that path if the bomb carrier is pushed away or to pursue a player. Robots occasionally taunt after killing a player, and the bomb carrier always taunts to receive its buff. Robots have an infinite supply of ammo, do not drop their weapons as pickups on death, and cannot collect health and ammo pickups. Robots also never randomly Crit, although some have a means of gaining the Critboost effect from Medic robots or from their weapons.
One robot per wave enter the field armed with a bomb (Potentially more than one if playing on Mannhattan) which behaves similarly to the Intelligence. The primary directive of the robots is to transport this bomb to the hatch at the end of the map, and the Defenders must stop them. After the bomb is dropped, another robot can pick it up. Any robot can carry the bomb, excluding the Sentry Buster and the Tank (although the Tank carries a separate bomb). Spies and Snipers do not actively try to pick up the bomb, but do so if forced on to it via knockback. Carrying a bomb slows a robot to about half speed, except Giant Robots. After all robots in a wave are killed, the wave is completed, while if the bomb is transported to the hatch and detonated, the wave is lost.
Robots have rudimentary behavior. Their main objective is to either pick up the bomb and follow the preset path to the bomb hatch, or escort whichever robot is already doing so. On the whole, they do not take alternate routes to the bomb unless the sub-wave is programmed to flank, or the bomb has been dropped in a location off the main path. Robots generally do not care about destroying Teleporters if they are not in the way. They are also completely oblivious to cloaked and disguised Spies: they ignore flickering cloaks, collisions with "teammates", uncloaking noises, and possible Dead Ringers. They can detect if a nearby teammate has been backstabbed, but not with regularity. They do, however, always notice when a Spy is on fire.
Robots can be dispatched in groups known as "squads". One robot is designated as the leader of the squad, and the other robots in the group follow and surround the leader. If the leader is killed, the rest of the group scatters and acts independently. Medic Robots automatically heal the leader of their squad and attempt to stay behind them, as opposed to other squad mates that tend to cluster in front.
Robots receive certain buffs after a period of time carrying the bomb, with new buffs stacking with the previous ones. A graphic on the HUD indicates which stage the bomb carrier is on and how long until it receives the next buff. Upon receiving a buff, the robot carrying the bomb taunts with an accompanying sound cue, and surrounding robots halt to wait for the carrier. The defending team can and should use this as a window of opportunity to kill the bomb carrier, especially if the robot is getting the third upgrade. These buffs do not occur if the bomb carrier is a Giant, though the HUD graphic shows a full meter.
Stages | Upgrades | Time Interval (Seconds) |
---|---|---|
First stage | Defensive buff, shared with all nearby robots | 5 |
Second stage | 45 health regenerated per second | 15 |
Final stage | Full crits all the time | 15 |
In each map, there are areas, inaccessible to players, where the robots spawn and make their way into the playable area. While in this area, the robots are invulnerable (showing an ÜberCharge-like effect if attacked), immune to knockback, are unable to attack (although they may use their support items such as the Buff Banner), and the bomb carrier's meter will not charge.
Types
The standard robot set is designed off of each of the mercenaries employed under Blutarch and Redmond Mann and share their basic abilities. Regular robots are equipped with the stock loadout of the classes. Über Medics are not noted as regular robots, despite the fact that they use their Stock weapons.

Giant Robots
Giant Robots are notably larger than other robots. They can only be slowed by a Sapper rather than destroyed by it or Pyro's airblast and they cannot be killed or even damaged by a backstab unless the knife is upgraded. They sport significantly more health than other robots, but move at half speed. Unlike regular robots, they are not slowed at all while carrying the bomb. Their presence in a wave is noted by a red background behind their class symbol in the pre-wave overhead. Giant Robots that carry the bomb do not receive buffs for it. All Giant Robots also have resistance to knockback, except for the Loose Cannon, which pushes them either back or directly up while slowing them.
Giant Robot versions exist of the Scout, Soldier, Pyro, Demoman, Heavy, and Medic. Multiple Giant Robots can occur in a single wave, either of the same class or not.

Sentry Buster
The Sentry Buster is literally a bomb on legs. It is never predetermined to spawn during a wave, and only spawns if an Engineer is doing significant damage with his Sentry Gun to the robot horde. Its arrival is announced by a ticking theme, a HUD notification, and an announcement from the Administrator. If the team has multiple Engineers with Sentry Guns, a Sentry Buster can spawn for each problematic Sentry Gun. An exploding Sentry Buster damages everything within range, including other robots. When it reaches a Sentry Gun, a Sentry Buster crouches and begins to spin. During this short period, an Engineer can (and should) pick up his Sentry Gun and run away with it. The Sentry Buster does not pursue, and he can escape with his Sentry intact.

Tank Robot
Noted as "???" in the official Mann vs. Machine update page, the Tank is a rare enemy that usually appears for one or two waves per mission, rarely more than once in one wave. It has a large amount of health, but no attack method (though it can kill players and other robots via crushing between walls or props while turning), it cannot be slowed, stunned, marked-for-death, coated in any throwable, or set on fire. It does, however, carry a bomb, and it cannot be stopped by any means other than its destruction. The final Tank in every mission features black and white stripes. It also has a 75% resistance to all Heavy miniguns.

Unused content
- RED versions of all of the robots and gatebot hats (besides the Tank and Sentry Buster) can be found in the game files.
- There is an unused Gatebot helmet in the files, which resembles a Payload bomb with lights on the eyes, sides and on top that seems to fit the Engineer and Soldier under their helmets. There are also three Gatebot lights specific to the Medic Robot. One adds a light to the chest and the back of the head, one adds a similar set of lights, but with more metal around them, and the other one puts a light with a small cable red hanging off of it, made to resemble a fez, on top of the head.
- In the game's files, there are two unused icons for Heavy robots. One is a RED variant of the Gloves of Running Urgently icon used in the Heavyweight Champ robot, the other is a Deflector icon that uses the 'explosive blast' sign from the Blast Soldier.
- Developer notes in the game files show that the Deflector robots were possibly supposed to push back players in a manner similar to Blast Soldiers. These robots would have had a large fire rate reduction, and it is possible this was what the unused Deflector icon was supposed to be used for.
- Below is the list of all robots that appear in the game's files, but are unused.

Bugs
- When robots do taunts that are taunt kills, their unique robot animations do not always reflect their hitboxes, meaning that it is possible to get killed by these taunt kills at the wrong time.
- Sometimes, a robot's animation uses a different animation than a player would, but the hitboxes remain the same (E.g. a Demoknight robot taunting would show the kaboom taunt, but its hitboxes would be the Barbarian Swing).
Trivia
- Unlike the regular classes, who face the direction they are aiming and walk sideways or backwards, most robots are split across the waist so that their top half is facing the way they are aiming but their bottom half is facing the way they are moving.
- All robots have voice lines, robotic versions of the voice lines used by the class they are modeled on. All lack facial animations while doing so, save for the Heavy Robot and the Sniper Robot, whose jaws moves up and down.
- All voice lines added to the game before the Mann vs. Machine Update are available in robotic form, despite many of them being impossible to hear (e.g. lines relating to capping points or Payload carts).
- While all but the Engineer Robot have unique robotized taunts, they are still tied to a specific weapon. Demoman Robots, for example, still use the Barbarian Swing taunt if they taunt with a sword, which can kill any players in front of them.
- The Soldier and Demoman robots appear to use the regular human idle animations when they use some melee weapons, rather than the jittery idle animations used by the other robots.
- The programming for the Bomb is similar to that of the Intelligence, and the robots perform responses based on this. The human players, however, have specific voice responses related to the bomb.
- Robot cosmetic hats, such as the Robot Running Man, Tin Pot, and Bolted Bushman are recolored versions of the actual robot hats. If set to equip the cosmetics, they have a bluer tint on their hats.
- Giant robots, with the exception of the Giant Medic, use different models with slightly skewed proportions (most notably a smaller head and larger torso) and more detail to make up for their larger size. The models themselves are the same size as the normal robots', but are scaled up 1.75X in-game. All hitboxes are the same for most of these gigantic robots despite their head proportions.
- They also have separate, more heavily-distorted voice lines, which are notably deeper and more mechanical-sounding than their human-sized counterparts. The Sniper, Spy, Engineer, and Medic robots, however, do not have these voice lines.
- The robot Heavy and Soldier have a smaller head inside their normal head. Both heads move at the same time with the same animations.
- Engineer Robots have appeared in the game files since the Mann vs. Machine Update, but were initially unused by Valve until the Mecha Update.
- There are unused headshot and backstab animations for all Robots.
- Heavy Robots have an unused alternative taunt for primary weapons. The only change is that instead of a thumbs up, the robot gives a thumbs down.
- The eye color of robots are determined by their difficulty. Blue eyes for Easy/Normal and yellow eyes for Hard/Expert.
