TF2 MvM update (now with co-op mode)

Currently downloading TF2... never played it before :)

Is there an OcUK team/clan/server or something I can join when ready? I doubt there will be many randoms out there who will tolerate a noob in their game but I know you lot are so nice and friendly... :D
 
so i'm working on the achievement where you have to finish a mission as every class. i did them all yesterday except spy and sniper. today i have tried soooo many times to get the spy done and not managed a single time. server disconnects, timeouts, servers shutting down, servers randomly changing map halfway through, game crashes, servers being out of date, and last but not least, kicked for no reason whatsoever on the final wave.

/rant.

I do seem to have an OcUK server in my favourites but there's never anyone on it. IP is 85.236.101.73:37315.
 
The whole launch is a complete disaster.

Queue 15 minutes, connect, server is out of date.
Queue another 15 minutes, connect, server is out of date.
Queue another 15 minutes, connect, server is out of date.
Queue another 15 minutes, connect, get to wave 5, someone leaves, game becomes impossible to complete, leave.
Queue another 15 minutes, connect, server is out of date.

For the amount of time you can wait for a game, it seriously needs to scale to accommodate leavers.
 
TF2 Tower defense game, so of course the engie owns :) Some classes are useless though.

Looking forward to trying this out when I get back home in September, hopefully the initial wave of new players calms down and kinks ironed out in small updates. With my favourite class being engineer, this should be an interesting mode to play.
 
How do you know what difficulty a server is running? And what difficulties for each map you've completed? I've enjoyed the game mode but it's not very challenging.
 
I simply hosted my own server. Only have a 10Mb down/1mb up virgin media line, hosted an MvM server, forwarded the port, was chatting with a friend on skype, and it quickly filled up with 4 randoms joining in. Pings between 40-60 with all except one guy who was in the US, who had a 130 ping. Perfectly playable and we had a blast, no lag or slowdown. Can't Mann Up, but I want to mess around with all the classes and figure out a good loadout/upgrade patch before jumping into that.
