how do i play ra2

seriously
 
i have forgotten how to build anything even remotely decent

Tfw Theredblur can build a better robot than you.

In all seriousness, this robot needs something more stable than just massive extenders that would break off in minutes against anything decent. Perhaps something like attaching snow plows would look (and work) better?

Please wait until either:

1. You get tournament results

2. You are a highly respected member

...before you trash talk other members.



Anyways the weapon motor hasn't got much HP if Ironforge is anything like DSL lol, try something sturdier around the same weight range

i cant get any more HP unless I go up to a perm which is 12.5 kg heavier, should I use that instead?

[cephalopod]

I wouldn't, that's 1/10 of your weight. If you have to, build a little frame of light extenders around the motor. Should weigh a lot less than 12.5.

[playzooki]

the main problem now is weapons falling off too soon, testing it against the bots 123 built before adding all the irl teams.

[Reier]

you do have some very short weapon range
you may not need a motor that powerful, as I said earlier weapon dmg/hp is more important than weapon speed in ironforge

1. You get tournament results

RA2 != FGC. People are generally more concerned with showcases rather than tourney wins, unless it's something like BBEANS.

Tbf tourney results matter at least a fair bit if you get them reliably. People like Pwn, SKBT and so on normally place highly in tournaments so it's a fair bet to say they're good builders. Someone like Naryar does cool things but he's more inconsistent.

Point taken though since RA2 is not a skilled based competitive game largely. Stock perhaps this is less the case.
