Team Fortress 2: Co-op

[Anery]

It's not as good as the Mass Effect MP

[Legoshoes]

Servers are doing a massive shit-their-pants moment right now.

[Mr. Johnson]

I can't do this tonight, alas. But tomorrow I'm on it like a... an automobile hood. or something.

[TezzRexx]

Poke me if anyone starts playing :D

[Dr. kitteny berk]

Well, this is nails, and has queues longer than something very long indeed.

How do the official servers compare?

[Roman Totale]

Don't think we made it past the 5th wave last night - it is bloody tough. Queues are also crazy.

[Dr. kitteny berk]

I hereby rename TEEF to team fortress queue.

[HereComesPete]

Made wave 6 with randoms, it was insane. Gave up.

[Joose]

Managed to get to 8 with randoms, by purest fluke. I believe there are no waves after 8 because none are needed. You will never get to them.

I bought one of those tickets (and the item boasting thing), so I can join the official servers. I don't know that it make any difference, there's still a wait. I'm happy to pay a small price for this clever re-tooling of the game and at this rate I'm unlikely to finish all waves and cash them in. For now anyway.

You can make on of the boaster canteens with 4 x scrap metal, which I've just done.

[Roman Totale]

Got to the last wave with randoms earlier but didn't finish it - really, really difficult. I've seen a couple of posts on the Steam forums with people complaining it's "too easy". They either play too much or they're just show offs.

I spoke too soon and somehow managed to finish the first mission I joined after posting this. I guess we were just organised enough to stumble through and I was super awesome at laying down towers sentries while somehow not dying much, or something.

People who are saying this is easy are probably in well organised teams, have discovered reasonable strategies and are TF2 nerds. And also people who rush as fast as possible through single-player games, ignoring side-stuff, then complain the game is too short.

[TezzRexx]

Still not played it yet - any good?

[Legoshoes]

It's balls hard. Any time I've played with 5punkers we're lucky to get to wave 3 of 7.

Time to form a professional clan

I think 5perm might be a good name.

[Dr. kitteny berk]

I think we made wave 4 earlier, doing pretty well with a few randoms and a few 5punkers, but pleasantly bastard hard.

[Joose]

Closest thing to an actual tip I can muster: the Brass Beast is almost a must for the Heavy in MvM

[Dr. kitteny berk]

most pleasing.

I'll create a sub-domain!
