I don't think we should cover anything from Freaky Fair in this article. This article is covering the mechanic in Mann vs. Machine, and restructing this entire article to constantly mention "In Mann vs. Machine" to make sure people know we don't mean Freaky Fair would be tiresome to read.

It seems like it would be the more logical choice a user might search for when looking for MVM upgrades.

Likewise, the guidebook specifically mentions Upgrade Stations and there is yet to be a page detailing it.

== Upgrade info on each weapon page ==
 
−
While its nice to have this one page to find info about upgrades, perhaps in addition to this it would be nice, and more convenient, to have upgrade info for each weapon on its specific page. I know that it doesn't 100% have to do with this page, but I figure I should ask before doing something so drastic.

Does it actually have an upgrade to cover the entire team, or just duration?

== Certain bugs I've posted and undos to them ==
 
−
 
 
−
Can someone please confirm these? I've written this up and posted it on the wiki, making sure to test them thoroughly before doing so, yet it has gotten undo'd without a real reason. I am completely confident these are real bugs, but I don't want to get into some undo war over this, so I'm putting it here to get more support.
 
−
 
 
−
Here is what I wrote:
 
−
______
 
−
*Upgrades can be bought and sold after leaving the station only during the first wave. Every other wave afterward will prevent you from selling upgrades had you left the station after making the purchase.
 
−
*By changing a weapon via [[Loadout#Loadout|load out]] before walking up to the upgrade station, then buying a single upgrade will prevent you from buying or selling any upgrades, including the one just bought.
 
−
**In the case of the Chargin' Targe and Splendid Screen, using this glitch will remove all upgrades for them.
 
−
*The '''+25% Blast Resistance''' upgrade reduces self damage taken from [[Jumping#Soldier jumps|rocket jumps]] and [[Jumping#Demoman jumps|sticky jumps]].
 
−
______
 
−
 
 
−
For the last one, the blast resistance is surely a bug, as the Chargin' Targe's blast damage resistance doesn't save you from some the Grenade Launcher's self damage.

I hope this can be sorted out. [[User:Hummus|Hummus]] 17:22, 25 August 2012 (PDT)

Freaky Fair and this article

I don't think we should cover anything from Freaky Fair in this article. This article is covering the mechanic in Mann vs. Machine, and restructing this entire article to constantly mention "In Mann vs. Machine" to make sure people know we don't mean Freaky Fair would be tiresome to read. I suggest we, instead, put an {{Other uses}} on the article.

I agree. Seems kinda silly to reword the whole page to shoehorn in Freaky Fair. I think {{Other uses}} seems sufficient. Mediarch User Mediarch PFP.png ♥ Talk ♥ My Edits 18:38, 15 October 2024 (UTC)
Pictogram plus.png Agreed Makes sense to me, anything pertaining to the upgrade station and upgrades themselves on Freaky Fair should really just be on the Freaky Fair page itself given its unique to the one map.

Icons?

Every upgrade has an icon that goes with it. I say we include these, since we need as much information as possible.

I don't think we need as much information as possible, that ends up in a bloated table. Most icons are achievement icons, so it's not much special. I'd have to see an example of what it would look like before judging.
