Well, I have yet to play Engie in MvM, so I guess I'll have to do some practice along those lines. Expect me to be unavailable for MT team play for a day or two as I experiment with Engie in bootcamp.
That is so evil, Joe. Lulz!

But every time I've tried that, MT or non-MT, it's worked for me. My biggest pain in the *** has always been keeping that sentry up.
Yeah, that one was in fact evil. And to be fair, they managed to destroy us pretty quickly. But it was fun while it lasted (I think I have a screenshot of it somewhere.)

One of our sillier setups- five sentries in a crossfire formation just outside the intel room:
To be fair, the one at the base of the spiral staircase was un-necessary and probably should have been upstairs. But aside from that, this was a totally unbeatable configuration. I don't think the other team scored a single capture on that round. Lots of ragequits.

Yeah, this was a round where we got just absolutely silly with the defensive sentries, and created a formation that completely denied the enemy access to the area. They kept on nibbling at it with different classes, but nobody was able to get through.
In this screenshot, I am standing behind my own sentry, with the pistol in hand for spy-checking duty. My dispenser is directly behind me, so that I can continuously wrench on the sentry in the event that we are attacked. Note the MiataTurbo.net logo sprayed onto the wall at the right of frame.
So, victory is sometimes boring.
I can deal with that.

I return to my PC to see a bunch of chat invites from Ant. Sorry I missed you guys tonight. On the plus side, my car now has two functional doors, so that's a good thing.

I did learn some useful tactics as the game developed. If I waited off to the side for the heavy that was following the tank to get engaged by you guys, he would then completely ignore me coming right up behind him and lighting him up. Same with the other two or three heavies that come right behind him. Once tehy are engaged from the front none of them will turn around.
I also made good use of the ubercharge and increased speed features once learning how to equip them. I initially didn't know I could change tabs at the top while at the store and upgrade things other than just in the weapon tab. Duh, learning curve.
The Rainblower has no real airblast, btw. I did try to use it a couple of times and it sputtered lightly and made little ripples but did nothing to the bomb. My other level 10 weapon has no airblast either.

Do you have The Back Burner? I got one in the haul last night, ill trade you.
As for the error, you should have been given the option to either keep whats on the cloud or push local data. Did you check your back pack and confirm the items are missing?
