... I was expecting a better topic upon entering.

Random discussions allowed?
Stop that Tank made me discover the best feeling in the world: when you see your name pointed out for the next Giant Robot on Payload, then reading your favorite giant as its name.
"CaioXG002 will become Sir Nukesalot" is, like, the best thing I can see.

Stop that Tank will be released as a mod, similar to stuff like Prop Hunt and Vs. Saxton Hale. In the future, we will have much more Stop that Tank servers running. We can be sure that servers dedicated to either standart Payload or Payload Race will eventually pop up. So, as of right now, the creators probably can't bother doing this, but in the future we will have it.
In short: not now, wait a little for much more servers.

I sure hope that a Stop that Tank server dedicated to mic-spamming opens up. Imagine people playing a soundtrack of a boss battle, from ANY game, as the Giant Robot spawns (for PL), or a theme that symbolize a battle of giants as the ware of Giant Robots appear (for PLR).

(just a disclaimer: even though I have been here for some time to know the creator's plans, my answer here ain't official, OK? I'm not actually affiliated)

... You can't make sense out of a Roman Tank <_<

What exactly is happening with the european server? Like, 20% of the topics currently on the frontpage are dedicated to point issues with it and trashtalk the administration >_>

If I may suggest a map, make a modified pl_goldrush 1 where the Giant Robot doesn't need to crouch to walk through the tunnel in order to have access to the last point... Really kills Giant Heavies there.

Speaking of giant buildings: is there any point to the giant dispenser? I can't think of a single instance when building that is even remotely a good idea.

They only cost 100 Metal and can be built around as fast as the Mini-Sentry, so, deploy one in a semi-safe splace where the team would appreciate health.

I really should learn to write smaller texts...

If someone missed the sticked topic, now you can destroy buildings that are sapped with the PDA, so, sapping a giant Mini-Sentry while the Giant is away no longer means he can't deploy for the next half a minute or so.

I have always thought that this was actually fair, it encourages team working on both teams alike: RED should attack when the Spies put the sappers, BLU should put spycheking as top priority and, mostly, have two Homewrecker Pyros. It was a balanced way to get around needing so much firepower to destroy a single Sentry Gun. I imagine the Giant Engineer now has a much bigger advantage.

Now, now, I do realize that I don't have the same data as you Admins have, plus I haven't seen a Giant Engineer since the buff ("I love going on message boards and complaining about games I've never played"), so this stands as a question without any side-implications: did the Giant Engineer show a big need of a buff, or are you just experimenting before making a final decision?

I like the idea of this since the random spawn location and the ability to build teleporters and spawn BLU from a different location would really change things up.

Not sure how it should be balanced though as STT currently feels quite well balanced to me and this would add a fairly significant BLU advantage.

This. It sounds very fun, but in practice, it will likely be some absurd fuck you to RED...
