After playing a ton of bot action this weekend it occurred to me that the mode might have some competitive or at the very least LOL merit. Now bear with me before you start sharpening your pitchforks and lighting your torches.

 

2v2  style co-op bot destruction matches it seemed to me might be insanely fun as I ran around stealing kills, blocking friendly fire when I would overheat but have the target right at the kill zone and generally wreaking havoc in bot destruction. You could do this by just inviting 3 of your friends to a room (TPG level play playing like this would be fun as hell to see) and partnering up 2v2 to get highest combined score. The amount of teamwork needed to snake kills, block fire and generally harass your teammate who really isn't (MUAHAHAHA) while working towards a common goal: clearing 25 levels I think could provide a one hell of a time.

 

Just a thought. Most of the games I played this event weekend devolved into a everyman for himself, snake as many kills and get in the way of your teammate's fire as much as possible when it made sense mode which was fun as all hell.

Yeah, I'd dig some sort of competitive/co-op hybrid mode. Something along these lines could be a good first step in that direction. Definitely sounds fun.

how many people, i wonder, discovered pharming kills was faster/easier/less grind to just drop into an empty bots-tdm server, and just follow team-bots around and killsteal from them? (no i didn't purposely start out doing this, i figured it out purely because all humans bailed after the DWB and i was the only one stealing)

True,   and I DID find myself  conciously ... "waiting for the kill",  rather than my usual  "rush in and cause havoc and mayhem" style.   I NORMALLY wouldn't play for the kill,  as XP is more my style.  However,  doing this DID make me analyze my tactics...  made me think about timing my hellfires.....  also work on that decisionmaking of how much sustained Vulcan was appropriate, with the followup Grenade.   I realized the difference between Vanguard and Grenader on the battlefield.... some situations, I liked the extra armor and damage bonus of the Grenader,  others,  I prefered the speed and maneuverability of the Vanguard.  Yes,  this game mode is not the Be-all,  End-all,   but it's a great exercise for working on how to dispatch bots,  (and humans!) as quickly and efficiently as possible.

How does "unexpected glory hole" relate to the event or the post? That's what I'm confused about.
