After Battleborn failed to deliver, is there any game like Monday Night Combat?
I don't care if it's indie or if it doesn't have many players, I just want to play a similar Third Person Moba.

Why not just play TF2?

Have you ever heard of a game called overwatch? It's pretty good, you should check it out.

YOU WERE THE CHOSEN ONE, SUPER MONDAY NIGHT COMBAT

YOU WERE SUPPOSED TO SAVE US FROM DOTA 2 AND LEAGUE

Try Gigantic out, guys :3 It's pretty fun, has some great character designs.

Looks great, but it seems to be for Windows 10 only. Not sure if I want to make a Win10 VM just for one game, but I might as well.

Mnc is a moba? I thought it was a tf2 clone.

I wish SMNC was bigger than it is, it's such a fun game. Too bad there's THIS no fun nigger and barely any good maps.

>>340641454
That's what everyone thought, which is one of the reasons why it died. It was pretty unique in its own way.

God damn I wish SMNC didn't die. I suppose it's still around, but god damn that game was fun when it was populated.

>>340639213

MNC was fucking awesome but it had some really bad balance issues. Namely with Assassin and Assault being gods of backdooring. You thought Tiny in Dota 2 with a Agh's-Manta-AC was nuts, those fuckers plowed buildings down with juice and had stupid mobility to back it up.

Still enjoyed every minute of it.

Real talk though, I think they shot themselves in the foot with SMNC. They had a really cool idea going and then just decided to go full League of Legends with free to play + paid heroes and stats boosts. Like come on, that's pretty fucking bold, especially when you're gonna just mulch the cool, unique idea you had before.

the games are mechanically different you jackass. MNC (never played SMNC) was a class based shooter, yes; like TF2, however the classes were much more distinct, had their own abilities beyond weaponry, and the game focused on leading minions into the enemy base. it wasnt better than TF2, but on the same note TF2 wasnt better than MNC. fucking hell.
>>
Hey this gives me an idea. Some drawfag, make a picture of the MNC cast and the Dawngate cast duking it out in Valhalla.
>>
>>340641726
SMNC is garbage compared to MNC

They completely ruined it
>>
>>340645323
i thought it was made by fanbase, are there any actual devs from Easy there?
>>
>>340645697
It hurts when people fondly remember SMNC.
>>
>>340645697
Agreed. Like I said in >>340645312, they basically just scrapped their whole original idea and turned it into Smite. Like, I get it, they were financially desperate or some shit, but spiting the little fanbase you had and just turning it into a LoL clone and slowing everything down and snowball-ifying it was just uuuuuuuuuugh.

And the pay2win, good lord.

Thank fuck, because that was literally the only thing stopping me from playing this and now I can. When they release fully, of course.

Glad they pulled their heads out of their asses so they wouldn't fuck everybody who's not getting cucked by Microsoft.

Not really sure. Fucking Uber canned it for that fucking garbage sequel SMNC...

I miss the good old days of MNC, I got my first Uberstreak as Gunner back then. It was just good old fun compared to THE RULES HAVE CHANGED autistic mentality the second had.

Is there a support class more perfect that MNC's Support?
>>

Oh of course.

I'm just not switching to Windows 10. It's not getting cucked if I'm using an old OS that actually works like an OS should, like Windows 7.

I didn't play MNC and only played SMNC, but goddamn do I miss it.

I remember how it started dying off as Uber wanted to chase some shitty RTS game.

Uber is equivalent to Hi Rez in my mind. Goddamnit, why did Hi Rez drop Global Agenda, then drop Tribes, to go on to make shitty Smite? QUIT DROPPING GOOD GAMES TO MAKE SHIT ONES DAMMIT.
>>
>>340646682

Honest to god, this game was the only game where playing something called "Support" was fun.

> Not just a shotgun, but the kind of shotgun that fucking instakills heavy classes point blank.
> Turrets were disposable but powerful.
> Could buff allied turrets.
> Could steal enemy stationary turrets, holy fucking shit.
> Still one of the weaker classes in the game.

"Okay, we going to hack into de turret now!"

Fucking lit up my face every time I heard that, especially when I would pop juice and hack a level 3 rockit right next to their core.

I dare you to find a healer/turret character in another game that kicks that much ass. Not even Torbjorn compares, not even close.

>Why play Resident Evil when you can play Left 4 Dead?

>>340639213
Smite is the closest thing to it that isn't dead, it lacks the verticality that MNC maps had.

Overwatch has a similar feel but it lacks minions(a good thing, might be ok for an alt mode), it's pretty much the bastard child of TF2's maps/modes and visual style and MNC's approach to characters and their abilities.

>>340647257
Speaking of assassins, their implementation of stealth was probably my favorite.

You could basically use it as much as you wanted, but the tricky bit was that it made a loud-ass humming noise up close, and you were easily visible as hologram-like at melee range.

So she was still a fun as fuck assassin without being aggressively annoying when the person playing her sucked balls. Her invis was mostly for getting past your enemies' vision from a long distance, then you'd get in position, turn off your cloak, and actually do sneaky shit. Dive in, back-grapple, dead. None of that pussy-ass Rikimaru shit where you sit on someone's ass like a pedo for ten years and then kill them the second they're alone.

As it should be. As much as I love Monday Night Combat, Uber is a shit company and deserves to suffer for constantly just abandoning games.

Hell I swear they even said they would add a mapmaker for MNC when it was released on steam and they never actually added one.
>>
>>340646075
Fairly certain it actually was the first time. MNC was their first game right?

O ok.

Yeah fuck Uber, literally all they had to do was make MNC2 but apparently that was too hard. Also the console version always had more players than pc and yet they abandoned it faster than pc because "muh expensive updates". Just released a paid dlc, people would have eaten that shit up

I absolutely fucking loved this game on the Xbox, had about 1300 hours and was in the top 1000 in the leaderboards (mind you that wasn't hard, not many people played). To see them abandon it after making the PC version was a massive blow. Such a good concept and game and they just scrapped it like nothing.

Punting people off stage with sniper was great too
