I'm not sure what to write for this mission. Wave 1 felt boring/lackluster overall, and the large use of bosses feels a bit much. There's a lot of repetition with the wave structure in it, and the custom bots you do use feel a bit overused by the end of the mission. Please refer to the demo for more specific feedback on certain parts of the mission.

Distillery Destruction

WAVE 1

Remove a Super Scout and Giant Heavy Shotgun

WAVE 2

Battle Engineers are really brutal, reduce their skill, remove their crits, and/or reduce how much firepower they have. We got pushed back to the hatch and we wouldn't have been able to beat the rest of the wave at that point with two tanks

Infinite support demoknights get annoying, especially due to the above pushing us back

WAVE 3

Boss is too much, got halfway through the map before the medic popped and destroyed all of our progress. Make the medic just a normal Regen Medic, so it doesn't pop and has more reasonable health

Rest of the wave is quite easy compared to the rest of it, doesn't really feel like there's a good progression of difficulty here

WAVE 4

Reduce Heavy skill

WAVE 5

Again quite brutal on the final boss, could reduce their health to about 20K

WAVE 6

A lot of high-health giants on the field pushing us back, reduce how much you're sending out at once

Parachuting bots feel weird on this map. There's not really a lot of room for them (and are somewhat annoying to fight)

Amount of Giant Medics you're using is pretty brutal, considering how small this map is for them

WAVE 7

Another large show of force, we got pushed back pretty easily with the amount of giants

Make the uber shield meds not use uber

Not sure if we need even more giants when there's already a lot of giant brass beast heavies on the field at once

MAP

Barrels in the right hallway of the warehouse still don't have collision
Giant Heavies notably get stuck trying to leave the beginning front area, they seem to be trying to jump up onto the railings, stop them from doing this

Hi

- Amount of money being given is too much, you could cut $2000~ so credits and it wouldn't change much
- Boss on last wave can get stuck if you shoot at it with rocket w/ specialist, this is more of a map problem, but keep it in mind
- Boss on int may be too hard, we got pushed back quite a bit

You were there, here's a demo: https://demos.potato.tf/prejudging/mvm_spacepost_rc1_int_astronautical_nausea_1564421611.dem

Wave 6's end could be toned down a tad with the difficulty, which you could do in a variety of ways, such as tank health or amount of firepower at once. Should pass with that change.

It does look a bit realistic for TF2, yeah. I'd recommend looking through this for something that fits better: https://tf2maps.net/downloads/categories/skyboxes.27/

WAVE 2

End is awfully slow, although I was waiting for them while watching over the bomb. Your discretion

WAVE 3

Volcano Fragment pyros die pretty quickly, and fire 4x slower rather than faster
Always fire pyros are a bit annoying for being on infinite support

WAVE 4

Your snipers are on infinite support and alwaysfire? Odd, but if this is intentional, I'm fine with it

WAVE 5

Very boring first part, and we got pushed all the way back to the hatch (with the boss deploying the bomb!). Although this may of been because of us trashing too hard.


Overall kind of a bland mission. Lots of small bots that don't really feel like they're putting up too huge of a fight, and very little giants. You also use a lot of voicelines for robot spawns that don't really mean much.
