Talk:Mann vs. Machine

Upgrades?

Miss Pauling says that the robots run on money and that you can keep whatever drops. These monetary drops will be used to purchase upgrades to use during gameplay I suppose? The TF2 site in the MvM page it says "Take advantage of breaks between waves to upgrade your abilities and weapons." In the comic, Hale says that they'll still have to pay for the weapons, and I don't think Valve is so evil to make us pay to play this new game mode. But this is just speculation on my part, we'll see in the next two days. I'm aware I made this comment in the comic A Fate Worse Than Chess but it's most relevant here, I believe.

What I don't understand is when you receive the Canteen. It says on the Canteen page that you receive it after completing your Mann vs Machine mission. Is this after you complete the Mann vs machine tutorial mission? Is this after you defeat the first wave? When you finish your first Mann vs Machine game? Could someone make this clearer?

We don't know what "mission" means yet. That's the wording on the update page. My guess would be your first complete game. dendodge 12:37, 15 August 2012 (PDT)

Hilarious Glitch

So since I can't get into the game online, I made a LAN server to try it out on my own. Well, the game glitched after the bomb went off and continued the round. I killed the rest of the Robo-Scouts and the next round started. However, it turned out that the blast zone stayed active killing everything that touched it, including the robots. They couldn't plant the bomb for two rounds and I was off to do whatever. NeoSlith 21:32, 15 August 2012 (PDT)
