They wouldn't be developing this if they hadn't been following us all this time. They know we're here, and they know what we use the game for. Don't just assume it's going to be a less trash RA1. Given all the technology available as evidenced by the various attempts of individual users on RA3 and alternative robot combat game development, expect big things. I'm honestly surprised Gabriel Interactive hasn't already reached out directly to us.

In other news, I'll be back.


For once the mods did something right

Honestly, I am flattered that you would say that. Given the chance, I'd do it in a heartbeat but I'm not sure what I'd really be bringing to the table...

As Kill pointed out, they know how we have been using the game and it is unlikely that that they would be taking a step backward. RA2 is over 12 years old and the only reason why it has survived the test of time is because of how much customization it gives you in and out of the game. I doubt they would risk compromising this when they make the third installment.

I hope we can still mod the game, and I hope that RA2 doesn't fade into abyss.

RA2 will never fade. We have kept it alive for over a decade (i think) so RA3 cannot kill it. EVER. GAMETECHMODS WILL NOT ALLOW IT!

Tbh if RA3 is an excellent shining example of fixing RA2's problems, I'd jump ship pretty quick.

I meant jump ship to RA3 haha. The way forward here has been IRL lately and it makes the game much more approachable to a new audience.

For all these worries about the game being coded like RA2, just remember: We haven't seen ANY screenshots and/or footage from the game yet. I apologize for sounding like a jerk, but let's just calm down for a bit.

I think two factors contributed to the development of a new Robot Arena: NerdCubed's RA2 playthrough and the revival of Battlebots. Both of these have drawn more attention to robotic combat, and perhaps Gabriel is taking the opportunity to capitalize on the surge in interest in the sport. There hasn't been a noteworthy robotic combat simulator since RA2, so the development of a new one, hopefully with fewer glitches (crippling or otherwise), only makes sense. Also, this will be great for Gametechmods, with new members and innovations abound! It could make for a new golden age of discovery.
