There's nothing about this update that involves the number 3 is there?

Are we all forgetting Valve time ? maybe they meant 15th August 2013, not that any dates mean anything.

I think I shall do what I did last time a major update was supposed to be released but actually took longer than I expected: go to bed and check in the morning to see if anything interesting happened.

Just had a game of this, very fun, almost like tf2 tower defence. Sentries are pretty good in this mode.

Did you wait half an hour in matchmaking?

This is loads of fun, although it is a little buggy.

Many times the robots have delivered the bomb, exploded the hole and the wave continues on when it should have resulted in a wave failure. Meaning that in subsequent waves there's no way for the robots to win as they fall through the exploded crater hole when trying to deliver the next bomb.

Also, Sentries are well OP, there needs to be more of them walking bomb things.

@Metalfish About 15 minutes but I was in a group of 6.

Joined using the server browser. Spectator really needs to be disabled. Bit buggy too.

Fun though. I was wrong about inventories, looks like you can use everything more or less. Fully upgraded kritzkrieg is a thing of beauty.

I bought a Tour of Duty ticket and was in within 6 mins. Loads of free servers.

Seems hard as nails, couldn't get past wave 3 on the first map but most people I was playing with couldn't hit for shit.

Lots of fun though

It's incredibly hard and rewarding until one of you spawns as an Engineer.

Reload Speed and Ammo Capacity if Demoman is anything to go by.

I'm not so good with health on kill, I seem to get myself in to situations where I die instantly all the time.

Almost did that but then realised they only last one game!

Servers were a clusterfuck last night, 11k in the q for 50 servers at one point.

In the game I had 3 engis were setting up right in the open and getting pulverised by the millions of rockets that come at you and the giant scout would whizz past with the bomb while I was trying to reload fuck knows what the others were doing

It only gets used up on a successful game.

What counts as a 'successful' game? Surviving all waves?
