Title: In Game Tourneys
Post by: Vertigo on August 06, 2010, 03:36:15 PM
Does anybody actually enter them?

Sometimes, for the lulz.

I just find it annoying that once entered, you can't open a bot in the bot lab

They always crashed my game after 3 or 4 matches in one. Wouldn't lose anything, but it would quit out.

Sounds annoying D:

Before I even knew about these forums, I would enter stock AI tournaments, & I would always lose against EMERGENCY ( Gosh, I've probably been playing RA2 as long as some veterans :O)

Edit: 500th post! I'm a HW now :D

Whenever I used to fight Backyard Ripper in the tournys it would always crash, Never figured that out.

Because I don't care.

Maybe I'd convert one into one supporting my own settings if I could get that arena I've been planning up.

Tell me about it. This is what usually happens to me-
 
- Enter tourney with cool robot
- Win First or so battle convincingly
- Game Crashes/Resets
- I reenter
- All opponents are repaired for battle I was at before  :trollface
- And my damage remains as it was  :FFFUUU

Even worse- It only ever does that whenever I win. If I lose, it functions perfectly  :rage

And with DSL, whenever you lose, IT FRICKING INSULTS YOU FOR IT, regardless of whether it by accident, glitch, or fluke  :FFFUUU
 
To whoever thought that was a good idea-  :realmad(

And it's kept in NAR AI, so if you lose, you'll get the same insults, or possibly even worse ones, most likely in a French Accent  :FFFUUU

Used to play them all the time in stock. It's fun to fight some random bots sometimes.

Never played a single tournament in DSL so ive never been talked down to like you guys ;P

Well if you want to suddenly go from Calm to Angry in a space of 3.5 seconds, be my guest :D

I've noticed in NAR AI, when you select a component such as a BSG in the bot lab, you get a selection of colours for it, such as red, black, yellow, and the last one is normally pink. The descriptions are "Red version of BSG" "Black version of BSG" and so forth, until you get to the pink one, then it says "GHEY version of BSG"

I might make a completely pink robot just to annoy him. =P

For the in game tournament they always crash randomly, sometimes I get through them others not even the first match.


Edit: I just noticed I'm a middle Middleweight :smile:

Why do weightclasses mater?

I remember in stock when I went against the stock A.I. I never struggled with EMERGENCY.... I struggled with Backyard Ripper and Iceberg. I'll get a pic of my first bot if you want.

I don't really do tournaments anymore. I might do a few, just for the lulz.

only time I ever play in game tournaments is with realistic stock robots (usually middleweight) that are designs that you would find in real life, not real killers so it relys on driving skills too

I have a reason, but I'm not saying. :p

give me a Robo Zone style in game tourney with different challenges and I'll be happy. I don't mind going through and beating up the standard stock AI LW's with my AW's in the in game tourney mode :)

Several tourneys would always crash on me.
