This will be unsalvageable, on a creative level, if there is no customization methods or glitches to make the blandness fun. Let's hope the latter is not the case and we can customise this as much as we want.

(Unless the RA team make their own forum for RA3 )

I wouldn't be too surprised if they did make their own forum because we, on this forum, don't know how to help people yet but they will. I still hope the community can persevere if this happens, tho. Can't let an amazingly long-lasting forum like this to go to waste.

or better yet, RA1 AI

honestly i doubt that ra3 will outlast ra2. I wouldn't worry too much tbh. I'm sure we'll have our own RA3 subsection added anyway.

maybe it'll be like the competition between the original forum and aceuplink.

Let's hope not.

Oh, I wasn't doubting that we'd have RA3 stuff going on, but I hope we can direct more players over here for tournaments and stuff rather than them thinking a potential official forum is the only place to go.

This isn't the early 2000's where you have to make your own forums or take it to IRC channels if you want to have discussion. Steam has thier own forum system that the devs will most likely use, or they'll just use GTM since that's where all the dedicated RA2 players are.

Stigma · « **Reply #467 on:** March 15, 2016, 08:10:04 PM »

then again, i don't know what i'm talking about. Just a guess, really.

OT: I'm in agreement that toggleable snap points would be handy

09090901 · « **Reply #468 on:** March 15, 2016, 08:10:11 PM »

new ra3 players will more than likely stick to the steam discussion fourms

yugitom · « **Reply #469 on:** March 15, 2016, 08:12:25 PM »

Oh yeah, I keep forgetting about the Steam discussion page. Well, we'll just have to make a thread on there detailing what GTM is and that those interested in RA3 should definitely visit here.

Reier · « **Reply #470 on:** March 15, 2016, 08:13:29 PM »

im just bummed out I'll be on a trip when this game comes out and I won't get back till mid-june
also i'll miss overwatch basically because of that

guhhhhhhhhhh

but the first bot I will make when I get this is emergency if the devs don't make him already haha.
also forkie if servos actually work now.

Badger · « **Reply #471 on:** March 15, 2016, 08:20:57 PM »

Thanks for reuploading the video reier!

The trailer worries me. The fact that they showed no combat IN THE TRAILER is very worrying, as is the snap-to-grid building system. Being able to mod the chassis in realtime without starting over looks cool tho. If you can turn off the snap-to-grid building, I think this game will live or die on its moddability.

RedAce · « **Reply #472 on:** March 15, 2016, 09:23:47 PM »

I'm excited and worried about what is being shown in the trailer, since the bots look like they might slide everywhere and with how these bots are being built, it seems like I can make bots I would make in stock... somewhat. I do plan on getting it day one, but I just hope it is good. That's it.

Also, hi MAD Scientist! How is it going?

it almost certainly won't be. but that's actually not necessarily a big deal. RA2 sucks bud, honestly.
but RA2 is fun despite its flaws. and it's one of the most easily moddable games I've ever seen. I just hope that RA3 is a fun game.

MassimoV · « **Reply #474 on:** March 15, 2016, 10:07:40 PM »

This is great. But man I'm just getting pumped for RA4.

xanosz · « **Reply #475 on:** March 15, 2016, 11:30:46 PM »

Seeing how their reusing the same components id be interesting see if custom RA2 components are compatible with the new game.

M O R E H Y P E

On the subject of the trailer, I think the team just got the old Stock components done and decided "Hey, why don't we make the trailer now while we work on everything else?"

Still, if all we got was what the trailer showed, and gameplay doesn't suck, I'd be happy. The new features range from a nice improvement to a godsend (moving components and modifying the chassis without deletion!? HELL YES).

~~Man where the hell did Andy learn to do all this~~
