AHHHHH god I had that idea!

I saw it starts out with a mini relica of the chera generator, half way in it blows to bits :D

and no barrels of radioactive substances would be in a generator house, silly!
and if it's gonna be huge, it's gotta have abandond buildings.

Can you say LAGFEST?  :bigsmile:
 
I think that we could have an intact Chernobyl, but the bots are fighting in the reactor core, with a bunch of glowing green pillars they have to avoid. And the longer the match goes on, the damage caused to their bots (by radiation) increases exponentially.

Yes, in 2.0 and 2.1, but I wish the bots would actually go for the ball.

Yep.... but not easy.

Quick idea: An arena based on the old Steel Conflict arena might be a lot of fun.


Here's a video of the steel conflict 2 finals for arena reference:



Fairly basic I beam wall config with a pit behind both starting positions.

christ, i really need to reinstall the game apparently
Got another Idea what if there was a reskined soccer arena for the World Cup.
someone actually made a soccer arena a long time ago, it had a little ball that would drop and you got points for each time you scored a goal. good luck finding it though! it was hosted on the old ra-reborn file archive
Isn't it already in DSl, though?

Yes, in 2.0 and 2.1.
:rage


i really need to reinstall this game

Ya know, inside the reactor wouldn't work. The radio control wouldn't be able to get through the radiation shield, and there would be too much interference from the radiation even if it did.


Also, I was thinking maybe an arena inside a computer.

Is it possible to make an arena where there is a statue in the corner and after 1 minute it starts walking around the arena and does damage to bots when it hits them

Another reason is that you would be booted as soon as the match starts, the radiaiton will kill you  :mrgreen:

Walking?  That'd be tough. 
But maybe a standing bot on wheels:

 
 

Or, a coool 4 wheeler:

 
 

 
 
Or,...Maybe a (giant?) eight-legged spiderbot (hehe).  But really...8 restraint_solvers each turning an eccentric geomobject 'leg', enabling it to craw around.  Add damage and a cool wav sound to the legs via the py. (No pic)
 
 
 
Input is appreciated. :)

I liked Mike's idea of a Steel Conflict arena. Quite big and spacious, and with Pits and OOTAing opportunities to boot!

With open grave pits, crushing gears and flames erupting from certain graves, I hope?

How about an ice hockey arena, where the friction on the floor is extremely low, so you slide on it. Also there are hockey pucks that do damage when you hit another bot with them hard enough. And you get points for shooting the puck into your correct net.

I particularly like the sounds of Crushing Gears and the Fire-Belching Pits you could knock your opponents into. I mean, not just eliminated, but also in pieces!  :approve:

You just gave me an idea for a bot.

Good idea, and if you shoot it into the wrong net, you lose points.

Wow, a Canadian Arena!  :laughing

I do like the sound of the Ice Hockey arena. Could basically combine the DSL Soccer Arena and DSL Ice Arena.

Maybe the roaming bot hitting the players could be ACAMS wielding a Banhammer.
