Excellent but impossible suggestion for a game mode
« on: October 22, 2012, 06:55:14 PM »
It's likely impossible, but a game mode that should of been on Robot Arena 2 would be Multi-Mook Melee. You would be only allowed to choose a HW, and your goal would to defeat as may LWs as possible before your armour eventually loses all of its HPs, is counted out thus immobile, Havoks out of the arena, or (would of been only possible if it took place at the Metal Skull or the Octagon) would of bean eliminated because it went into the one of the pits. At start of the game, the bots that sprawn from nowhere to go after you would be easy to dispose, such as Lil' Dogs and Scouts. After some bots are defeated, more difficult bots such as Berzerkers and Stingers would appear more frequently. Also, the number of bots at a time would slowly increase.
The bots in order of appearance would be:
Lil' Dog
Scout
Flapjack
Bot-204
Ninja
Civil Disobedience
StingRay
Arc Pounder
Scary Hanger the silver bot in this screenshot from the back of the boxart: https://gametechmods.com/uploads/images/214251TE44X52PL.jpg
Roly Poly
Catfish
M.A.D.
MiniBerg
Flame Chopper
JACKPOT!
Stinger
Berzerker

On the HDD info about your bot, it would state how many bots you have defeated as your score, instead of how many DP you did to your oppenent.

pretty sure ironbot was like this to a degree, but yeah i dont think its possible to implement it in game

How you make Alarm Clock Pizza is:
Step 1: You buy an alarm clock from the store, and then you have to break it and put it in the sauce.
Step 2: Fold the sauce in 5 slices and put it in the dough.
Step 3: Paint the eggs with a pitcher of a clock showing what time you want to wake up and eat pizza for breakfast.
Step 4: Put the eggs in the dough.
Step 5: Make it flat into a round shape and draw the time you want on it.
Step 6: Put some old steel to prevent other peple from stealing it.
Step 7: Make it flat and cut into 60 slices 1 for each minute in 1 our.
Step 8: Put in the oven set the timer to 30048813.2884 seconds and put the temperature on 'Volcano' setting.
Step 9: If you think it is take to long, then get yor alarm clock and set it to now so that it will ring and you can take it out.
Step 10: Take it out uv the uvin wen it is redy and go to bed. In the morning eat pizza and also eat yor hands bi mistake.

Dude you KNOW there can only be 4 bots in any match. But Ian's new RoboZone arena does this to a degree.

If you want impossible..

Team deathmatch. 32 bots on each team.

Huge arena, like the low lag arena but with fairly low walls.

That would be fun. :P

I've always wished that survival mode was possible in this game.

It starts with 2 robots, then another robot joins after 30 seconds then the last bot joins after another 30 seconds. If a robot is destroyed within the 30 second period then the next one joins in.

The arena comes with multiple modes including:

*Rumble mode - every bot for itself.
*Gauntlet mode - 1 bot tries to defeat 3 bots in a row.

(Note: it's not actually my arena, it was created by Trovaner.)

I tried looking for it, but couldn't find it on here. Maybe I'm looking in the wrong section. Could you post a link please? I MUST try this out!

Thanks for the link! The only problem is... well... the AI aren't much of a challenge. Does this arena work with other AI packs?
