Is anyone else's camera constantly snapping back to the birds eye view in the bot lab?

Very frustrating

I'm, like, legit not seeing what's bad here.

I don't get what's so bad about this game. It's alright in my eyes.

you've got to be on some mad drugs to think this is in any way decent. zero collision detection, horrible physics, no weight limits, clunky ass building, it just goes on and on with whats wrong with this game.

the only plus for this game i can see is that actually runs pretty well.

OK, to be fair, I was just in the bot lab building stuff. Seemed OK there.

Despite all this, I really hope they don't just give up on this. They can fix it, surely?

I hate to say it....but this game may have just killed off any future for this genre of game.

Yes.  Thank you.  I'm not the only one having this issue.


And oh my word.  I mean, I'm not sure if I can blame the Early Access thing.  I've spent about 40 minutes on this thing, and I'm kinda regretting the purchase.  I haven't gotten much on the fighting, but I cannot build crap in this due to not only the birds eye view thing, but the wiring, the building in general is just bad.  I'll spend a little more time on this before giving an official review, but thus far, I am annoyed with my purchase.

Well, initial reactions. 

1. Bot building is a pain.  But, to be honest, building in RA2 was a pain until I got used to it, so I'll keep playing around and hopefully it'll get better.
2. The camera is a bit wonky for me.
3. I like the arenas
4. Anybody notice the SFTW clone yet?

You could try using a controller to see if it makes building any easier. I'm pretty sure that's what the game was made for considering all the menus have xbox buttons on them

This is exactly why I was being cautious and less-hyped about the game.
