Robot Wars:Arenas of Destruction
« on: August 03, 2011, 03:16:28 PM »
IMO, the best of all the official RW games. I also have a fun challenge, kill SirKillalot. It's easy if you use mortis, sotry somone else. ;)

I have a dl for it in my sig, as it is a dead game, like RA2. 400MB, no viruses, came straight from my disc (My 1st ever PC game, still have it. ;) )

Also, discuss any other points about the game, what you like, strength of bots, building tips ect.

I've got the PS2 version to this day, actually- still take it for a spin now and then.


Although my opinion on the reps tended to vary. Sometimes, they were reliable, and a joy to play with. Other times, I couldn't stand them.

I have it downloaded on my PC. But it doesn't work with my moniter. :(
How you make Alarm Clock Pizza is:
Step 1: You buy an alarm clock from the store, and then you have to break it and put it in the sauce.
Step 2: Fold the sauce in 5 slices and put it in the dough.
Step 3: Paint the eggs with a pitcher of a clock showing what time you want to wake up and eat pizza for breakfast.
Step 4: Put the eggs in the dough.
Step 5: Make it flat into a round shape and draw the time you want on it.
Step 6: Put some old steel to prevent other peple from stealing it.
Step 7: Make it flat and cut into 60 slices 1 for each minute in 1 our.
Step 8: Put in the oven set the timer to 30048813.2884 seconds and put the temperature on 'Volcano' setting.
Step 9: If you think it is take to long, then get yor alarm clock and set it to now so that it will ring and you can take it out.
Step 10: Take it out uv the uvin wen it is redy and go to bed. In the morning eat pizza and also eat yor hands bi mistake.

The 4000c saws are insanely over powered, use with a lifting arm and Titanium or Kevlar armour (depending on your budget) for a relatively cheap way to pwn. Also the house robots AI is messed up on the Tokyo rooftop because they keep randomly attacking you, ruining the match :(.

Provided it doesn't break down- which it does often. Very often. One particularly bad match I remember, both my weapons and one of my drive motors broke in the first minute after cursory contact with an opponent.

I find it much better than Chaos 2. C2 flipper comes off in a instant whilst Bemoths flippers rarely comes off.

I disagree. Behmoth rarely flips OOTA, as opposed to Chaos 2. All the weapons in this game are insanely fragile.

It's still a cool game, though.
Sorry, I never saw it. Looks dead though, so It doesn't really matter. =P

Anyone gonna try out the challenge I mentioned in the OP?

I think mortis is the best of the replicas. I had an idea for an AI pack for RA2 based on the game in my ideas thread.

I think the worst bot in the game is Mortis.

It was desroyed in 2 seconds. As soon as the match started it died.

It can happen to any rep- for one thing, I remember playing as Chaos 2, fighting Heavy Metal. Immediately charged in, flipped it over, and tossed it into Matilda's CPZ...
 
 
 
 
...and then my battery died. Three seconds.
