Neither does RA3.
The rumors of my death have been greatly exaggerated.

My first bot in RA3, The Nan Man. This truly displays the brilliant chassis system.

How well do the physics handle all of those firing at the same time?

Perfectly fine, actually. However, the damage that occurs compared to the velocity is a tad questionable.

This is my favourite robot so far. I have actually fallen in love with it. I call it Vishnu.

Deadly Teacups (looks better) and Deadly Teacups 2 (much, much better at fighting) respectively:


One motor powers the whole weapon at the base and there are actually motors beneath the top motors that you can see clearly so, I believe, it should have 32 saws but it seems to do much better than the '36hs' I built before. It's got armour that no robot can get through in the allotted battle time, a fun weapon mechanism and is actually reasonably fast/nimble. These are very close favourites next to Vishnu.

Right, I'm actually enjoying RA3. Obviously, it's not in the intended way and I'm rather upset about that but I really don't want to see updates now. If new updates come to make it more realistic, it will end up lacklustre with nothing going for it because the physics will always be bad. I am being very serious when I say that I would be happy if the only update this game got was a smooth multiplayer and nothing else (at least to add to the realism aspect) because it's not salvageable due to the physics, anyway. I'm having fun making these weird designs effortlessly and I genuinely think that RA2 will always be the best place to turn to for a more realistic combat experience (obviously only with self-enforced IRL rules and meta-games like DSL.) The only real updates I'd like to see are weight classes and stuff (possibly with the ability to go over the weight limit without needing the use of anti-ballasts or something) and a career mode that refreshes itself (don't know if this has been mentioned yet but has anyone actually completed all the events in career mode? As far as I know, it's impossible to refresh and start again.)

However, I could be completely wrong (which I hope to be proven, if the devs pursue patching the game.) The physics might be salvageable and updates to the game may be able to overhaul it completely but if realism better than RA2 cannot be achieved, I really don't want to see this game turn in to a snore fest in an attempt to achieve a more realistic experience which will lack when compared to RA2, anyway.

The only reason I'm posting this here is because I felt this reaction after building these two and I believe it to be relevant to the building of the above bots. Perhaps I'll copy and paste my feelings towards the game in the RA3 thread for those who skip over my showcase and/or to continue discussion based on what I have said.

Wow, and I thought I was building game-breaking sh** in RA3. This entire thread is on another level of wtf-ery entirely. (I also thought I was the only one on GTM still playing this occasionally, but whatever)

I picked it up to make this for no reason just now. I haven't played it since the previous posts I made in this thread and probably won't play it for a good while.

A havok bot that doesn't destroy itself OR fly out of the arena. Impressive.
