Games Workshop should take notes on how to advance storylines in ludicrously awesome ways.

By which I mean fuck. Yes. I officially cannot wait.

This is going to be awesome. Only six players, however?

It's either to make it so that each player needs to carry their weight and be competent...

Or because there are going to be SO MANY bots that any more than 6 ACTUAL players would tax... everything, too much.

I'm hoping for the latter. THAT WOULD BE SO AWESOME.

The way I see it, it'll have a lot of fodder bots, and a few of the bots shown in the page each round, like in L4D with its normal and special infected. Giants = Tanks.

Well, downloading TF2 for the first time ever.  I'm only in for this new co-op... and if the game play is similar to L4D, even more epic, but looks like a defend the base/survival deal.

TF2 storywriting. Because a game that needs no story should have the best one.  ???

The new mode sounds more like Killing Floor than L4D. I'm looking forward to it.

Indeed. Valve can't count to three, but they can tell a fucking story.

Holy crap. How many times can Valve make me absolutely stoked about the same goddamn game?

I've lost count, this seems amazing. Only thing that can make this worse is the MOBA syndrome, which means that if you play alone, the other five guys are gonna be super serious dicks. So we should play in Bay12 teams :P

Caaaaaaan't wait.

EDIT: Just read the part 2 of the comic and the explanation on the robots, so excitingly exciting. I wonder if they are gonna disable the normal TF2 modes for this event.

EDIT2: I guess TF2 is now stepping even more on the toes of (Super) Monday Night Combat. Also, Spy probably won't be that useful against the bots.

Okay, this deserves a second post. Valve has been foreshadowing this from 2010, even with the letters MvM. Here's a video that gathers up everything on the matter:

Yeah I've known about it for a while, it's certainly interesting to see how many fucking little clues they actually gave.

Wait a second: if the machines are robots, shouldn't the spy be able to use sappers on them? Or would they only be calibrated for engineers' buildings?

Also, the map shown in that video seems to be the 3 different co-op maps, because the topmost looks like map 1 of Mannworks.
