...and it's been giving me terrible ideas. In MvM, TF2's crazy mercenaries are tasked with defending Mann Co's property against hordes of bloodthirsty robots. Each map is composed of a series of paths that the robots follow, their ultimate objective being to drop a bomb into a hatch at the end of the level. It's basically tower defence, but your character IS one of the defences.
Now imagine that you're a complete loser. A friendless shut-in, a selfish asshole...all in all, a loser. One day, after a terrible accident, you die. Your body is scraped off the sidewalk and dumped in a trash can and you're promptly forgotten. However, you're not truly dead. After dying, you are teleported into an alternate dimension populated by freakish aliens. You awaken in a facility there, and you are introduced to industrial tycoon Znorx van Flurb, owner of FlurbCo. He quickly explains to you assholes that his company is under attack by a rival tycoon named Schlob, and that Schlob has assembled an army of various horrific "things" to try and destroy FlurbCo's precious property. Your job now is to fight off those horrible things and protect FlurbCo. Oh, and the rest of the galaxy will be watching you for entertainment.
Unfortunately, you have no fighting experience. On Earth, if you tried to squash an ant, there was a good chance that the ant would beat the shit out of you. A whole bunch of equipment has thankfully been provided, but due to FlurbCo wanting to cut costs, it is just a load of junk.
Each player will have to fit into a certain class, and will have a role to fulfill (like TF2, duh). The classes are: defense, offense and support.
I trust you folks to get creative here. And remember, you're a loser who has to make his own weaponry out of junk, so no overpowered wish-fulfilment crap. This is going to be a crazy, comedic adventure.
PS: your characters will die multiple times. In fact, dying multiple times is encouraged. Thankfully, FlurbCo has provided you bozos with a handy Ressurection Pod that will bring you back to life in the base when you die.
Edit:
Here's the list of players involved so far.
Offense:
-Karcolith, Pyro.
Defense:
-Lawnmower Joe, Demoman.
-Soulthief, Heavy.
Support:
-Mamajumbo, Spy.
