Recipe for an entertaining multiplayer romp:
Ingredients: Directions
Take all the above and smoosh them
together. When you're adding the Team Fortress 2, you'll want to make
sure to focus on the class-based combat system, but in this case you'll
want to add a pinch of RPG-style leveling to balance out the sharp
flavor. Don't forget to include the brightly colored, cartoon-style
graphics and over-the-top sound design before you bake. You'll want to stir the Team Fortress 2 into the mix slowly with a
wooden spoon ? take note of the differences as the ingredients combine:
instead of many classes, each being good at one particular aspect of an
overall team effort, you'll notice that Monday Night Combat's classes are better able to stand
on their own. You've got your all-purpose assault guy, your tough tank
(who can convert himself into a turret), your stealthy assassin, sniper,
and a couple others. Of course, these all taste best when your team has
an even distribution of them, but they can be pretty effective on their
own, as well. Next, set your oven to 350 degrees, and get ready to stir in the
Smash T.V. Check to make sure your Smash T.V. came with: a
"Hey-ohhhh!"-type Monster Truck Rally announcer, a bunch of money to be
earned by killing stuff, and plenty of fun nods to the more ridiculous
elements of professional sports. Now add a few multi-tiered maps,
"protect the fort" gameplay, and a system whereby you can spend your
money on upgrades, traps, turrets, and other defensive improvements.
Don't forget that you'll be putting your players up against some pretty
tough bosses, so give them a variety of weapons and upgrades they can
use to blow those baddies up.
