why are you still singleplease tell me that's a flying f*ck
Absolutely correct! The hover craft's power was reduced when I took the pic

Well, look at this.
And we won woooo
the thing I'm using is a hell of a fighter lol
I have no idea what the platoon is for- I'd have added you as friends instead, but the friends thing doesn't work. I just figured Platoon is like a clan or a team or something.*Pic*
Well, look at this.
And we won woooo

Aaaahh! so you're the one that invited me to a platoon. I accepted but then I had to wait for you to join the battle queue. I waited and waited but nothing happened... I had to leave the platoon to play again.
Edit: Here's my IronClad

Dammit those vehicules make mines look like crap, i don't even want to post them anymore after seeing stuff like that
To Mystic: Believe me, it's less about looks and more about function. The chassis of mine is a tuning fork and the rest of it is pure armor (and a very long window because I can't help but be realistic :B). Much like in RA2, you can make a rahbut that can be all-around, or you can have it be specialized in something or 2 things but you'll have to give up something in return. In the case of the Fortress of Ignorance, it lacks speed in order to have thicker armor, more powerful weapons. I was going to make a Vindicare type rahbut with much speed and one massive gun, but have it lack in size and armor, and then run around hiding behind cover and taking out other rahbuts from afar. That was a failure though.Dammit those vehicules make mines look like crap, i don't even want to post them anymore after seeing stuff like that
Well believe me, my first vehicle was outer crap and I lost in the practice map without making one single kill. But once you get a hang on it, it's a piece of cake.
Edit: This game is a curse! It's so addicting and it's still in freaking Alpha stage

m8 at least i didnt flip overas sucks at this game
Just so we can all find each other easy, how 'bout we throw up our in game names here? This goes out to anyone who plays.
I'm MTPandorica, as you saw in the pictures.

Pilot can fit on left/right/back, though the back is specifically made obvious so it works as decoy. Everything I used is the cheap version so it doesn't take away from my main design.

Challenge AcceptedIm gonna try building a plane-like tier 1 flier. So I can go all Stuka on tier 1, kekekeAny tips for that ?
I can say it's pretty hard and I wasn't successful building one. It needs perfect balance to stay leveled. Any part shot off will completely destabilize it. That's why most flyers around are small and compact.
How does that thing turn without strafing? I assume it can't turn staying still?Or you can just watch the video

After about an hour of playing and designing, here's my Tier 1 block:
(https://gametechmods.com/uploads/images/3491robot.png)
You know if weight is actually a concern, you should use "inner" instead of cube, as they also have 6 connection points but weights 3.35 instead of 5.After about an hour of playing and designing, here's my Tier 1 block:
(https://gametechmods.com/uploads/images/3491robot.png)
The blocks you're using are heavy blocks. They have the same armor/HP as the lighter white ones. Their only purpose is for ballast. You're only slowing down you vehicle with those.
I updated robocraft but it keeps getting error messages about it being not updated :(
I get an error saying “Outdated version” when I run the game even if I just updated it
There are two possible causes for this:
If you closed the launcher in the middle of an update. The solution is to install the launcher again. In doing this, the launcher will re-download the full game and you will be able to continue playing Robocraft.
If you are an long term user and used an old version of the Launcher and recently updated it. In this case what happens is that your old game is installed under C:\Program Files (x86)\Robocraft\ while you new game is installed in C:\Games\Robocraft\. What happens is that the new launcher updates the game under C:\Games\Robocraft\ but when you hit your Robocraft shortcut it runs the old game in \Program Files. To solve it delete the version in \Program Files and make a short cut to the Robocraft.exe in C:\Games\Robocraft
Yeah, went to troubleshooting, fixed that.
Also I never get any kills. I must suck at firing.
This. Some tanks and ships (I have to call them that. They don't feel like robots.), when you build them, correspond to a tactic that works best for them.Yeah, went to troubleshooting, fixed that.
Also I never get any kills. I must suck at firing.
Aiming is hard. It needs some practice. You could try taking the lateral paths and and attack others from behind. It's the tactic I use because my ship isn't made for frontal assaults
Hovercraft just isn't that good until end game where you can lift 5 layers of unconnected armors. Slow and Hovering really just spells "shoot me plz".
Well yeah now that I am Tier 7 I am making a switch to hovercraft, going for hover 5s instead of wheel 5s. 4 of those things will lift my existing tank off the ground so I gain speed without losing armor.Hovercraft just isn't that good until end game where you can lift 5 layers of unconnected armors. Slow and Hovering really just spells "shoot me plz".
True. Most of the times I get targeted 1st but I have speed and surprise on my side. My IronClad can outrun most of the hovers and ground vehicles around.
Without speed my ship is useless
I noticed that hovercraft is kinda sh**ty at tier 2. I'm gonna go rocket car, I think.You can try building one of these with tier 2s hoverpads
Or maybe zeppelin for max bypass the enemy and capture base trolling.
what about swatbot ;-;
123: Technically you already have enough guns for the max firepower of 5 shots per sec. When it comes to gun survival, that's another matter.Which is why everybody spams Guns.
That's a sweet build, m8. Looks very solid and appears to take quite some punishment.
Also is it me or Tier 3 increases your earnings ?
Also, how do they figure Bravery points?Also is it me or Tier 3 increases your earnings ?
It's not about tier but about the components' level used. Higher tiers logically have bots with better guns, armor and so on. Destroying better equipment gives you more RP than destroying less upgraded stuff.
It's not the kills or base captures that give you the most earnings. It's the amount of cubes you shoot off.
No, Higher Tier increase earning. I can just base rush and earn 2k at Tier 8 without firing a single shot.Also is it me or Tier 3 increases your earnings ?

Lmao it's called glass cannonNow that it's greened out, probably not that much of a glass cannon. Although, at ~t6 with only green and orange armor, I can't imagine that it's armor > firepower
If thats glass my robot is made of dust specks
Because how you build it makes a difference. Having multiple non connected layers means it will take that many hits for a shot to actually hit a vital part.Lmao it's called glass cannonNow that it's greened out, probably not that much of a glass cannon.

The Arrogance is only t5 and it barely survives a fight with a fellow t5 tank, and it's fully greened out with hints of orange
Also, what is up with 'Inner' and 'Cubes'? Component armor vs actual cube armor?

"Inner" and "Cube" are two different components. Inner are the cube with a trimmed corner. It still comes with 6 connection points, so you can just rotate it to hide the trimmed corner. A cube weights 5kg while an inner weights 3.35, it makes a difference because this game is actually sensitive to weight and balance.
I saw little marty-chan at Tier 1. I shouted his name, he didn't even answer :(Tier 1? I probably didn't notice because the thing I'd made was horrible to control and all my time was spent trying to work it out :c

This isn't really related to builds or anything (basically the same stuff I had at tier 2 is now tiers 3 and 4)...Eh. The numbers have gotten pretty high when I played.

But I think these numbers are inaccurate.
I can see plasma cannon fliers being honestly overpowered if the enemy team doesn't have a laser flier.Kinda reminds you of the shelling power of a Basilisk, doesn't it?
But then again, it's a welcome change from all the gunbeds...

If anything plasma will make virtually no difference because Flying Laser Rectangles will still dominate this game.
It's funny because the devs made this new gun to nerf flyers by only allowing it to be placed on top of the bot. They might have failed to realize that with the help of ballast cubes you can make an inverted flyer and have the gun pointing down.Look, flyer controls range, they don't need "insane" range to kill a gunbed, they just need..... 2 more meters, like say if they use front mount instead of top mount.If anything plasma will make virtually no difference because Flying Laser Rectangles will still dominate this game.
Plasmas have insane range compared to lasers, so with a bit of target practice you can take them out and stay safely way out of range of their lasers. Plasma flyers on the other hand, is what concerns me.

Do remember that a laser is instantaneous and a plasma cannon is not, and can be dodged with more ease as the range increases.It's funny because the devs made this new gun to nerf flyers by only allowing it to be placed on top of the bot.

I know that. I think you misread my last post. It's not the flyers that need insane range but the ground units that have plasmas have a huge range advantage compared to laser flyers. So they can shoot them out from a distance with a bit of aiming practice.
Of course if you are picked as their target you'll have a hard time aiming the plasma guns or fail completely but you still have your teammates backing up. There will always be one player that will be serve as bait while the others try shooting the flyer down. Everyone wants to get of rid of them so someone will surely back you up.
You can be a plasma and be picked first by the flyer but what are the odds of having just one plasma in your team?
The real issue is having plasma flyers. Those stay way out of the lasers range, plasma ground units will have a near impossible task to shoot them down and the flyer will safely bombard us to pieces.

Actually hitting enemy flyers with plasma is..... you know that thing goes at an arc and not strait. How exactly do you hit a moving target at Thruster L5s Speed?
Also, you can Stuka the gunpods and hovercrafts. After all planes beat tanks right ?
When I got enough RP to cover my bot in thruster L5s, I will.The real issue is, just flyers. Plasma or not they own the game, and the only reason they don't flood the game is because they are hard to build.
If you can't fight them, join them.
Hey, of course flyers are op, after all they have a third dimension to move and far more tactical things. But then again they are just hard to build and drive.Hovercraft is basically sh** tier, and is even worst against air than tanks.

Lol i kill 2 others then get 1 shot by you :dumb) lolyeah you were pwning and then i come with my n00bot and then pew pew pew boom destroyed
Well, I will stay VERY close to this game until they nerf the plasmas because it's plain awesome.Ground vehicles are stupid easy to kill with plasma, just drive in at point blank and blast the ground, with something dumb like this.
I think there's something wrong with me because apparently I destroy flyers easier than ground vehicles with the plasmas. Not commenting on laser flyers yet because I haven't seen one since the update but plasma flyers are sitting ducks to my L5S plasma... Or more like flying sitting ducks, if it makes any sense...
The recoil of this weapon is gigantic, though.

2 plasma ensures whatever armor it comes into contact with dies. Armor is useless so it just comes down to whoever can land the first hit.
Actually I learn how to aim now, so I can kill from pretty far, but shotgun kills are just easy if laser tanks tries to charge in. But it doesn't matter since even if I miss, I can tank a whole bunch of laser hits, and I will still have more chances to OHKO him. Shooting me down to 1 plasma only makes me more dangerous.Well, I will stay VERY close to this game until they nerf the plasmas because it's plain awesome.Ground vehicles are stupid easy to kill with plasma, just drive in at point blank and blast the ground, with something dumb like this.

To me, that vehicle looks so weirdly complex that I don't know what is attached to what and where and how.
I'm not sure about shooting to the ground, because so far I still haven't noticed the so called splash damage when it's an indirect hit. I have to aim dead on to see any damage actually being done.
I think your giant cube like designs would be somewhat effective on avoiding plasma shots.

I don't know why I am still building hovercrafts.
Well, I sink it in so it is closer to the center of mass. But the main reason you want to line it up in the center is so when it gets shot off, you can still move strait. It is essentially build for durability. All the option 2 stuff (thruster turn, heavy bottom, forward thrust in the center line) are for durability.I don't know why I am still building hovercrafts.
Because they are awesome, that's why :mrgreen:
I like that hovercraft,it looks like a flying submarine(that's when I notice it's called a submarine). The concept isn't far from my Ironclad
The tips are also good, though both our hovercrafts violate the 3rd rule.
Knowing the weight of everything and how exactly helium works, making a plane at T1 is easy.Challenge AcceptedIm gonna try building a plane-like tier 1 flier. So I can go all Stuka on tier 1, kekekeAny tips for that ?
I can say it's pretty hard and I wasn't successful building one. It needs perfect balance to stay leveled. Any part shot off will completely destabilize it. That's why most flyers around are small and compact.
Although being a nice ride for its tier, challenge failed. Flyers are somewhat easy to make but a flyer in the shape of a plane is not. I can't see the plane there.
Also I hope they tune down the headlights flare because it's ridiculously bright, specially in day time.

Yes it's tier 1, it can float in the air without ascending or descending, and it stay near perfectly balance without any control.
You guys got a platoon?
Ah well. Here's a few pics of my T1 ship. It's kinda slow but can fly out of laser range and still bring death to ground targets. I've won 2 of 3 air battles and never shot down by a ground unit.You guys got a platoon?Nope
That's actually a very clever design. I like it!Oh you're gonna love the controls:
I feel like I've seen a ship like that in some sci-fi movie or image or whatever but not sure where.

>L1 tires
sure
Clearly you haven't seen all the thrusters on it...You do know that, even if you add a bajillion thrusters or the bestest wheel if you have 1 l1 wheel the entire tank will only go as fast as that wheel allows, right?

grinding like a chinese all day erry dayI play to get kills, levels and RP just happens naturally. Only n00bs need to grind.
In other news, I made a rocket sled.
It's basically a flier with no flying. It has a self righting system and a gravity system (because it bounces around like a mofo)
No. Not hoverpads.In other news, I made a rocket sled.

Best bot type ever.
also gravity system ? you mean hoverpads ? Only scrubs use them on rocket sleds, get rid of it and just steer madly around and do full turns while charging the enemy and climb up mountains/ use them as launch ramps.
It's pretty difficult to control, but very amazing.
I haven't touched this game in quite a while. I'm gonna take a look at it soon.L5s equipments are essentially useless now unless you got 600 black cubes to go with it.
Now with only 2 L5s Plasmas I get thrown to tier 9?! BS, I get completely raped by Tier 9's and 10' with a million L5S lasers! Their range also increased. I can't shoot from a safe distance anymore.
Railgun's are let down, imo
When I have time, I'll get on adapting my Ironclad for the new Robocraft.You probably need to pick a tier before you start, depending on the amount of RP you have at hand.
wait they changed robocraft entirely? why? the old building system was easy and rather fun...Too many people abuse the old system by bringing a single Plasma L5s to tier 3.
When I have time, I'll get on adapting my Ironclad for the new Robocraft.You probably need to pick a tier before you start, depending on the amount of RP you have at hand.
If you are going for Tier 5, you need L3/L3s equipments with full orange armor
If you are going for Tier 7, you need L4/L4s equipments with full blue armor
You can also undercut your speed to get even more armor, but I won't recommend that on a hovercraft. My guess on a good T7 hovercraft would be minimal amount of L4s pad for lift (probably 4), spam L3s thrusters for forward/backward, and L1s thrusters for turn.
but yes, you want to stay out of Tier 8 and up to avoid the fully loaded Tier 10.
I made a giant tier 2 vehicle with 8 L1S railguns. I barely scratch the opponents.That's your problem. Railgun scales extremely poorly with increasing number, so 1x L2s is way better than 8x L1s.
So I cobbled this thing together from a bunch of parts I had in my inventory. It's very much a hit-and-miss vehicle.

Either I do awesome and demolish half the enemy team or I get jumped by a guy with a L3 SMG one minute in and get ravaged.
(Btw, the bot's name in English is "Hell's Traffic Accident")

I downgraded my rocket sled vindicare down to a tier 1 10-component sled with like 5 rockets for mobility and gave it a tier 2 or 3 railgun, and that works as intended. However, as soon as someone with enough SMG's find me, I'm toast. Sniping from afar and castrating other bots is the best way to use what I'm using.

rocket sleds BLOOP yeah
Well you have to sit still for like 5 seconds for the reticle to shrink, then it is exactly accurate at all distances. But that makes speed completely useless, and these robots don't have a park mode so whenever I'm aiming at someone all of a sudden they disappear from view and I'm aiming at a rock.It is inaccurate because it can't properly aim down, and any movement from natural slope royally mess up the shot. I should consider building a sniper with tilt so I can properly shoot down from hills.
What statistics do you suggest for each weapon? Plasma with armor, lasers with speed, etc. I haven't done much grinding yet.

However, as soon as someone with enough SMG's find me, I'm toast. Sniping from afar and castrating other bots is the best way to use what I'm using.

You are not in playground.
The lack of fog of war that came with the last update is killing me, literally. You can see the opponents for miles. I can't be stealthy anymore. Plus sniper SMGs are a true pain.Why not? Stealth is fine as long as you take the proper path, and spam enough T1 Radar Jammers.

Ice Map - Stay within the field of ice columns
Bridge Map - Take either left or right lane
Crater Map - Take the left lane
But overall, never take the middle lane. Even my stupid tank can't take the middle lane anymore because all my guns will be sniped off before reaching the targets.
These wings. I hope they are actually useful and no just terribly unefficient.
So after the "Weight Matters" patch, turn out that weight matters even less now than before, and I get higher speed with lower level wheels and more armor. Wheels also gotten bigger, with L5-6 wheels being just the right size IMO.
If that's the case, you could replace your L5-6 wheels for lower level ones, free up some ranking and CPU for more armor/higher lvl armor and possibily more guns.Not really. The robot ranking is barely noticeable when you undercut component past 2 levels. 1 L8 guns probably cost more robot ranking than 10x L5 wheels combined, so cutting lower will just end me up with lower wheel HP.
You can always build a T3 prototype first before moving on to a higher tier.
Flying is pretty bad now that everyone on the map can hit you with SMG, but here's a L3 flyer anyway.

None. Not that flying has any advantage to begin with, but hovercraft are like really good now so long as you bulk one up like a tank.
Then the game will go back to super high plasma bombing, and everyone on the ground hated that.None. Not that flying has any advantage to begin with, but hovercraft are like really good now so long as you bulk one up like a tank.
True that. The only advantage I see on flying is that it's fun, at least for me. They just need to decrease SMG's power and/or range and/or increase the maximum altitude at which planes can fly.

I think the sky need some clouds to hide in, rather than being too high to hit.

Railguns are pretty good at sorting plasma bombers though- at least in the lower tiers.
Actually I made this a while back, just never got around to post it.
I just turn on the game recently to see how things are going. Honestly I don't like where it's going.
Terratech might replace it. Essentially in Terratech you're in a survival world just as robots and when you destroy enemy robots you can pick up their scraps and then attach them to your own ship. You can make flying vehicles as well.

You have Terratech and Scraps as possible similar games. But I think all 3 have their own gameplay style, so it's not comparable, imo

I killed the entire enemy team of 9, fought 5 bots solo simultaneously, 3 of which were plasma, and I killed them all while receiving just 20% damage.
Nobody charges Hovercrafts, which is annoying since they are usually weak from below. I've killed way too many in one hit because of the fact they only have 1 bottom layer or no armour there.Cuz they are idiots who actually hover up against non plasma bombers.
Some of those SMGs seem to have a lot of blind spots. Can they all fire without being blocked by your own vehicle from the front?It's an hover with 12 pad, I can 180 my craft in half a second. All I need to care about is front facing.
Unrealistic, T-34 had only 1 main gun.T-35 however...

The first thing everyone is going to do is make a spiderbot.
Because Electroplate can now be repaired only by it's armor value, Electroplate + Medic == Retardedly OP
Exactly that.Because Electroplate can now be repaired only by it's armor value, Electroplate + Medic == Retardedly OP
I'm confused. So the medigun only has to repair the armour value now, and it was doing armour and shield beforehand? Or something else?

How do you decide what cubes to use for what tier?
And how do you buy the cubes? In bulk? When you need them?
I'm pretty poor so I don't wanna spend money on things I don't wanna use.
And what is the best way to make your tank mobile, hoverblades? Do you hide the hoverblades in the chassis somewhere?
This sh** is depressing. People suck so hard now at T10 I am killing everyone with a damn sub 500 red hovercraft with 6 SMGs.
Modified from the previous version by cutting hoverpads down to T8.

I studied how to effectively armor and triforce using your methods, but now that I got to tier 7 I just can't make a durable bot... :rage
Could you please show me a layer by layer dissection of that 6x SMG hover bot please? :beer:

Well a few things.Thank you so much! Those are very good tips, well now that I got the Overwolf bot I have 1132 CPU, are you saying if I get Overwolf on a new account and then start leveling I will have more CPU than I can on this account because now I am 37 level and that means ((100 - 37) x 10 ) + 1132 = 1762 Max CPU but with Overwolf (100 x 10 ) + 1132 = 2132 Max CPU?!
1. Orange block is for tier 5, they are ineffective at T7 no matter how you build. And tbh you are better off at tier 5 at level 37 anyway.
2. Top just channels damage inward in a strait line. Just use the "solid wall" method you are already using on the sides.
3. 4 hover blades are slow. you need at least 6.
4. I don't use any fancy triforce. The inner tube uses solid inners and full cubes (besides the pilot seat). Yes you really need some weight there to keep hovercraft stablize.
5. Also that red bot with 8 electroplate is not a tank. It wins by out maneuvering with 12 pads and 4 thrusters. Electroplates in general are not useful for tanks, they are for hit and run with medic support.
6. Above all else, there are no reason to rush to a tier you are not effective in. I took my time got to level 100 by tier 8. Make sure you are winning at your current tier before moving up.

A more speed oriented design.
I think ground vehicles are way less vulnerable than airborne ones, except against plasmas, imo. You just need 1 or 2 hovers/wings shot off to drastically reduce your performance in battle. That's not a problem if you're already stuck to the ground.My hovers stays functional all the way down to 30% health.
What to upgrade next: armor, hover-blades or thrusters? :vista:To get a functional beginner tier 10, simply replace your current parts with Lv8 red armors, Lv8 hoverpads/thrusters, and 12x Lv10 SMG.
TOP SECRET AWESOME BLUEPRINTThat is an awesome hover SMG blueprint, been building 'em like that ever since you showed me yours. :mrgreen:
