yeah. the original community server modes called the meth saxton "Sax-Tr0n H4L3" or something like that, so I don't know why they didn't do it here. eh, it's whatever.
Saxton hale is only really strong when controlled by a person. If mecha hale is controlled by ai like the other robots then he won't be much of a threat.
@damsen978 ...you do realize that literally IS AI, right? Those image generation programs are just one kind of AI, AI in general has been used in games nearly since their creation.
"Alroight, you lot. Normally, I'm beatin' the daylights outta you, but not this time. This time, I got a real problem that needs your attention. Some'ow, that bastard Gray Mann has managed to make *a robotic version o' me that can actually match me in strength.* I don't think I need ta' explain how bad that is. And so far, you lot all workin' together have been the only ones to ever defeat me... so that's why I'm sending the lot'a you into Gray Mann's very own base to scrap the damn thing before he can use it to take ova' our everything. Get in, scrap his *Mecha Hale,* and then get the hell out. I'm counting on you lot... truly." -Saxton Hale.
I have a theory that Gray mann couldn't build his saxtron to have a powerful saxton punch because the machine itself wasn't strong enough to reprocate it, so he just give it some laser eyes instead
I love the fact Mecha Hale (Or Saxtron 9000) head is a combination of Robot heavy head and robot sniper eye. I wonder if Gray Mann have new Voiceline on this map?
See, I always had this idea of like Mannworks or Coaltown reformatted as VSH, but it's with Saxton taking on an army of robots. Though, that's likely harder to code vscript for in comparison to a Robo-hale
You'd have to balance it with how much it costs per canteen charge and how long the effect lasts. You'd probably also have to make it so it can only be used once per wave.

I remember seeing an idea that a robo saxton hale should be the final boss on MVM maps... and now it exists. Now thats a possibility (hypothetically... we all know that would require valve to do something sooo)
It will be funny if this happens after the VSH mode. Grey Mann fired the mercs again for letting Saxton escape, they somewhat end up on Hales side once more and Grey decided that "You know what? Screw this, I'll do this thing myself." Builds this muscular robotic version of Hale and the rumor of it lure the mercs back. Considering Grey is the reason why they got fired for the second time, this might be fitting.
man i hope at least add it to the smissmass update of this year because in comparation of the devil hale of this scream fortress this one looks more fun to play
This is awesome! Saxtron H413 / Mecha Hale is going to mop the floor with those pesky mercenaries this summer 😎👍 . Also, could we maybe get a map with Merasmus or the Headless Horseless Horseman next? This game mode could definitely use a couple more bosses and more variety of possible escenarios. Thanks for all the good work, Oz. You rock!
Would be great to see more bosses join in VSH, though they'd take some work to make them fair, unique, and fun. An idea I heard of and like is to give someone like Headless Horseless Horseman or Merasmus a teleportation ability to let them get around the map easier, at the expense of losing Hale's special jumps.
Because for some reason none of the new VS Saxton Hale maps gets added into any of these updates and I don't really understand it. I guess we'll have to wait and see if they ever change their mind in the future but it just sucks.
Honestly, even though VSH has its flaws, god damn the amount of effort into it is amazing. I’m impressed! Hell, out of the many custom game modes people made, this is something I’d would’ve seen made into a real thing years ago.
Y'know, I think this is the first time the modern version of VSH has had a different playable character, and it makes me curious as to whether we'll see any other Saxton replacements in the future. Maybe zombified versions of Barnabas and/or Bilious Hale for a Halloween map or something.
I always imagined an official VSH to be some kind of plot where mercs fight robotic Hale instead of the real deal... cause it wouldn't make sense for Hale to lose to the mercs in canon.
Huge missed opportunity to call him Saxtron.

Ooh good one

That’s a funny name 😂
Human grit always beats robot magic
Wonder if Robot grit could be Human magic…
Saxtron vs. Marasmus
Remember Ai need human innovation in programming
Bro even has the robo heavy arm helicopter swing lol
it would be so terrifying to see this in mvm.
"ALERT, SAXTRON HALE HAS ENTERED THE AREA"
Saxton hale is only really strong when controlled by a person. If mecha hale is controlled by ai like the other robots then he won't be much of a threat.
@damsen978 tf2s bots use ai not a scripted path, otherwise airblasting would mess everything up

Forget about Hale! We're cutting our losses and pulling out!
Give us targets or get below, over!
Nice refrence. Imagine if robot hale could summon allied robots.
That was quite an... unforseen consequence...
Anyone left down there is on his own!
Adrian Spypard: well shit
Why would they do that? With Hale around there must be a lot of surface tension
Saxton Bot being powered by Australium?
More precious than money, make sense. Very smart!

Just noitced that the robot drops money on death. Nice detail!
I can't believe the concept of Saxtron never occurred to me. Fits in perfectly
Thats how I thought they were going to do it the first time, to kind of fit it into the lore
i enjoyed being mauled down while testing the map with shork and others
peak creator, peak game mode, peak va, peak community.
As someone who loved Freak Fortress, it's nice to see the Saxton Hale mod continuing to improve.
I have a theory that Gray mann couldn't build his saxtron to have a powerful saxton punch because the machine itself wasn't strong enough to reprocate it, so he just give it some laser eyes instead
wonder if that'll be implied
😏
i like how even the kangaroo on his belt is roboticized
Forget about Freeman is the perfect song choice for this
I love the fact Mecha Hale (Or Saxtron 9000) head is a combination of Robot heavy head and robot sniper eye.
I wonder if Gray Mann have new Voiceline on this map?
I would like that this plays on the Next Summer Update 2024
Gray does have new lines, now referring to mercs invading his space
"I am not trapped in a facility full of robots. You are all trapped in with me"

Hear me out: Saxton Hale Canteen.
@@LizardOfOz Having a canteen that temporarily turns you into Saxton would be pretty dope, if possibly a bit overpowered.
You'd have to balance it with how much it costs per canteen charge and how long the effect lasts. You'd probably also have to make it so it can only be used once per wave.
Oh my god, playing as Hale would be a fantastic way to make MvM work for a single player.
I love the Iron Australian Giant :)
I think their hand rapidly spinning while they're revving the charge up would be dope as fuck
Immagine a Hale vs Hale gamemode where a team of robots fight a team of humans. First to kill the over team's Hale wins the match.
Good idea
That reminds me of the club game where both teams have a fox that the opposition needs to kill
There are boss vs boss servers in community servers, but yea its really fun
Hale: How dare he make a robot of me just wait till I get my hands on that old man
the 2nd wave of summer is upon us, and this time, it's an MvM wave.
this marks each summer as our time to take back our game and slowly make it ours!
Meanwhile, a game breaking crash exploit with objectors was recently found. Yep, we sure are taking the game back.
Imagine they give Mecha Hale a chance to appear in Mann Vs Machine.

This is a nice way to make a unique VSH map that feels different from the others and is only partially non-canon.
“Don’t need to be a tower of metal and bolts to shoot lasers out of my EYES! SAXTON HALEEEEEEEEE!!!!”
- SAXTON Hale, now shooting lasers from eyes
Mygod this is so cool
i also love how you totally got the same style of animation like the MVM ROBOTS ITS JUST INCREDIBLE
it looks LEGIT from mvm
*_The timeline where the mercs stuck by Hale's side, so Grey Mann had to get creative_*
It will be funny if this happens after the VSH mode. Grey Mann fired the mercs again for letting Saxton escape, they somewhat end up on Hales side once more and Grey decided that "You know what?

Ah good you're still doing these. Hopefully I can get the VSCRIPT VSH version of my map ready by summer but there is no guarantee.
Good luck!
now is Mann vs THE machine
Yo those robotic animations are just chef's kiss!!!
I looked at the workshop and it saids that you sap saxtron. I’m sold
regular VSH: i dont need it.....
see this: i NeEd IiiTtTt!!!!!
There's have been a great disturbance in the force. The death of Saxton Hale has altered the fate of Mann Co. Although how I cannot say... 😤
This is awesome! Saxtron H413 / Mecha Hale is going to mop the floor with those pesky mercenaries this summer 😎👍 .

Can't understand how facility didn't make it into the summer update
Because for some reason none of the new VS Saxton Hale maps gets added into any of these updates and I don't really understand it. I guess we'll have to wait and see if they ever change their mind in the future but it just sucks.
I thought they already released it and i was missing out
Super honored to have been able to help playtest this map so much before release. The final product is fantastic!
This looks amazing!
Thank you!
For a moment I thought that Grayman was going challenge Hale with Mecha Hale before it turned out to be his daughter instead.
we need the bread monster...
Honestly, even though VSH has its flaws, god damn the amount of effort into it is amazing. I’m impressed! Hell, out of the many custom game modes people made, this is something I’d would’ve seen made into a real thing years ago.
Oh God imagine if Mecha Saxton was incorporated into MVM waves.
Forget Giants now you gotta deal with Saxton fucking Hale
You guys working harder than valve with updates it feels.
That Robotic voice of Mecha Hale really fits well
The Final boss of MVM... we finally made it men!
FORGET ABOUT FREEMAN, I REPEAT, FORGET. ABOUT. FREEMAN
imagine they add this when a halloween update takes place. that would be awesome
Makes sense for red team to fight robot saxton.
holy sht looks like gray man finally create saxton hale robot
"Lasers! HE'S GOT LASERS!"
Honestly I feel like since hes a slightly akin to a giant robot he should be slower than base hale, but make up for it with the aforementioned power
Amazing! looking forward to it!
0:52 damn this just so Cool
JESUS THIS IS SO GODDAMN AMAZING
I can't wait to play this
never mind i edited since i noticed the charged hale punch is replaced
Sounds very interesting, great work.
Robo Hale: 😈
Spy's sapper: 🗿
so this is what gray mann did when saxton hale went out of office
Ah shit, here we go again
Okay i'm loving this one, great stuff.
This is awesome and looks so well made. Hope this mod makes it into the game too!
FORGET ABOUT HALE!
I cant wait to get my hands on this damn metal giant lmfao
if we forgot about freeman last time, what are we forgetting about this time?
Y'know, I think this is the first time the modern version of VSH has had a different playable character, and it makes me curious as to whether we'll see any other Saxton replacements in the future. Maybe zombified versions of Barnabas and/or Bilious Hale for a Halloween map or something.
no just more hale variants
Just get HHH from vsh or Merasumus from Freak Fortress ez
Attention guys, it's time for the real mann vs machine
summer with this map promises to be hot🔥🔥
I always imagined an official VSH to be some kind of plot where mercs fight robotic Hale instead of the real deal... cause it wouldn't make sense for Hale to lose to the mercs in canon.
The optic blasts are gonna make things interesting, especially if he can run and shoot at the same time.
We would be dead if saxtron hale was also in MvM
mas vale que lo apoyo es un mapaso like! :D
That wizard sniper absolutely schooled Mecha Hale.
lets just hope when this gets added in the summer update it wont be bot FIIIIILLLED
1:00 They even painted his pubic hair 😭
Didnt get to test like everyone else in the comments but this looks rad as hell
Sniper fr just 1v1ed saxtron and won (just remembered a meme of a sniper with the bushwacka about to 1v1 the horseless headless man)
thank god they kept the eye lasers
AWESOME! Voting now!
He looks like Zeus from Real Steel, truly a metal design.
LETS GOOOOOOOOOO
DO SAXTON HALE VS ROBOY SAXTON
We eatin good this summer bois !!🔥🔥
keep up the good work
ima firin' mah lazar
I know what I’m playing after school
Fun fact: robo-Hale WAS workin by liquid australium
Since the particle effect is close to our eyes that mean the lag will be a problem here making our fps drastically drop
Oh hey i was playing this map on shork's server :D
Now we just need a Saxton VS. Saxton Gamemode.
Imagine if it was possible to call in actual Saxton Hale to fight Mecha Hale.
That should be a mann up boss mode
I feel like this is more canonically accurate 😅
We need the bread monster as a boss we never got the bread monster as a boss
Now we need an mvm map thats just saxton vs robots
The true mvm last wave.
Need the background music by itself.
Just think about the ridiculous amount of money that must power him
Fnaf room existing in skirmish
vsh_facility devs: and i took that personally
The music in this is cool
I'm guessing force of nature scout is going to be a lot harder with the whole eye laser thing.
