Meh, seeing as I couldn't join a co-op... I ended up trying the versus.  I sucked horribly at it.

Well, apparently there's over 700 servers now, so things are moving a bit more quickly.

That's kind of to be expected, your first time playing... Just play medic and heal everybody until you figure out what's going on. Or try the training missions.

Medic sounds like a real good idea. Even if you're absolutely horrid at it, you'll likely be the only one on the team so no-one will care. And you get to observe how the different classes are played!

Anyways, forgoing Co-op until tomorrow (today?). I'm not waiting 28 minutes for a single round of Co-op.

I got into a coop round earlier. Played Medic, got all the speed upgrades on the needlegun. I was pretty much Medic-Heavy with that thing.

It was hilariously fun, but only having 6 rounds made it incredibly short. And the massive number of people trying to get into MvM servers bogged me down with lag until it eventually force-disconnected me. :|

I just got into another round now, so I shall bring more news of it sometime soon.

How does everyone feel about Mann Up Mode?

My knee did slightly jerk when I read about it, but mostly because it doesn't include a "Season Pass" sort of thing. I don't like paying small amounts of money for consumable things, but I'm fine with paying a larger sum to get something permanent.

I don't know anything about the co-op yet, as the queues are still over 20 minutes. At the low point of online Steam users. Eep, this evening won't work out for Valve at all, I expect.

EDIT: It started loading a map, so I stopped the stream I was watching to get the 20 minutes over with, alt-tabbed back and I was disconnected and the error was off screen. It kicked me out and I can't start the queue again as I was probably tagged as a leaver No, wait, I'm an idiot I just didn't pick a mission. Fun times.

My opinion in a nutshell.

Also, I find it ok for them to do the payment exclusive things as long as they stay cosmetic. I was hoping for new weapons but it looks like there are none to get.

I'm pretty sure most of the servers are community servers, and valve has no real control about it.

The MvM matchmaking is still up, but they have temporarily taken down the Mann Up servers most likely due to overload.

Sorry about that,I didn't get to properly read the pop-up announcement when a heavy and medic combo is coming to the last point

Got an invite to a MvM password protected server from a bro. My reaction:

Super fun.
Sticky Launcher is OP. Up the damage rate and reload speed + critboost. Destroy all the robots.
Heavy is pretty useful. Penetration + critboost.
Spy is, unfortunately, pretty crap in this mode. But whatever.

What annoys me about the Pay To Play scheme is that i bought the damn game at full price back when it came out.
I understand valve has to make money from all the free players, or the players that bought the game for 5 bucks, but dammit! i already bought this game!
The ONLY thing i ever got from buying the game was the Veteran badge.

I think anybody who bought the game should get periodic free Tickets/Keys for the stupid crate.

And the proof of purchase.

Also, it's not pay to play, as there is no gameplay locked, nor any advantage with buying things. Sure you can look smug in your new hats, and maybe get weapons a little faster.

Then again, I'm not against freebies.
