Frankly uninspiring bunch of MWs, testing for Ironclash. May not enter if things don't improve :')

You mean game is still crashing post patch?

cephalopod · « **Reply #63 on:** August 02, 2015, 05:42:13 AM »

Nah, just that the bots suck :P (Naturally, as 75% of them are VS).
The dual Beta flipper does like do havoc every now and again but that's probably due to overkill.

I think the bursts in IF (or at least the snapper plus and beta) are too powerful to run with just a skirt on, Havoks everywhere.
Wanted to play around with pistons, and this is not the most efficient thing ever, as you'd expect with 2 pistons, but I've basically ended up with an Ironforge 'The Boxer', MW and all (and skinned appropriately after realising the connection)

i like it
i can see that air tank running out faaaast though.

you need a clever name

cephalopod · « **Reply #66 on:** August 02, 2015, 03:27:21 PM »

Thanks :)
The tank should be okay honestly with 5000 units, and each piston fire taking 30 of that, so it should get around 80 dual-fires - bearing in mind in testing the weapons flew off after about 5 hits, I don't think that's an issue :P

Name wise... my wit fails me. Currently have it down as NOT THE BOXER.

I didn't nerf burst pistons last patch, but I can do it if it's too unstable.

RedAce · « **Reply #68 on:** August 02, 2015, 03:46:46 PM »

Looking pretty cool. It's almost like it belongs in an AI pack.

Hang on. That just gave me an idea.

^ Ironforge stock AI?

The pistons are fine, it's the burst motors themselves I have issues with - it's just a matter of myself using too little weight on the burst so it havoks when fired (eg heater skirts on snapper plus' and betas)

Also I'd love to see some form of Ironforge Stock AI pack if that's what is being alluded to :P

So I was decorating my mediocre un-noteworthy Bite Force rip off when I realised MY NOT-HEX-PLATES STILL HAVE THE PECK EYES
THIS MADE THINGS MORE EXCITING

Yeah my mistake, I meant burst motor.

Piston already been fixed last patch.

I will nerf the burst motors then.

A perhaps too distant take on Da Dog, because treads.
Still, crazy fast, which is fun.

Naryar · « **Reply #77 on:** August 04, 2015, 05:25:47 AM »

Treads are honestly fine. It's a fast rammer, which is the whole point of the thing.

~~I am more worried about this here MW having about as much weapon weight than an AW though...~~ MOAR RAZORS

cephalopod · « **Reply #78 on:** August 04, 2015, 05:34:09 AM »

Yeah, I very much focused on the ramming over the weapons :P

A more faithful Roly Poly though

Naryar · « **Reply #79 on:** August 04, 2015, 06:35:56 AM »

weapon setup is a bit odd.
