Robot Wars RA2 - OFFICIAL MOD

[Badger]

Why would you care if people imported bots from older mods into this one? Seems unnecessary and petty to me.

[cephalopod]

We'd just prefer if the mod was enjoyed as it was intended, with no replicas of a lesser quality thrown in. That's all, hardly petty. And I added the Razer bananas as a joke. You guys are throwing this a little out of proportion...

I can totally understand, back when I started backlash I got so many pm's asking for bits and pieces for their own projects when all I wanted was for people to enjoy the complete thing.

why this needed to be official.

Something I've wondered this whole time!

When it comes to licensed properties its probably better to be safe than sorry.. cant blame the team for protecting their butts

[cephalopod]

As always, Joe talks perfect sense and totally gets it. Thanks man.

[R01]

I think you misunderstood me there for a bit, I wasn't exactly being like "ugh, why does this need to be official", I find it great that you did this and thought that getting more people's attention to RA was part of the reason(even if it doesn't really show the building part of RA2).
Never meant that they didn't want to join the project because of us, but if someone asked me if they would be allowed to do a replica of my bot in a game, I'd happily accept and be proud that my bot is featured in it. But hey that's their decision.
I was going to write a reply about the imports but that was before I saw your replies about it and think it's just for the best if I don't post that, since this is already clear.

What happened to all of the replicas HB showed before the pack got released, e.g. Tricerabot/Rosie The Riveter?
Is there any chance those could be released to the public?

[cephalopod]

No

[Silverfish]

No

That's okay, but what DID happen to them, anyway?

[cephalopod]

They still exist, for the most part.

[Silverfish]

They still exist, for the most part.

So could you not get permission, or did you just not feel like releasing them?

Careful, he might delete them if you anger him.

If I am angering him, it's unintentional. It happens occasionally. :P
My apologies, Craaig, if I am.

If we had permission, they'd have been released. Unfortunately, not.

Idk what Jonzu's talking about, just being a pest lol don't worry

I thought you were getting frustrated by the endless questions. I'm sorry.

[Tashic]

Decided on a whim to transfer some robots from the 2013 AI pack to the RWRA2 pack.

I can only assume this is some form of trolling by the dev team.

Well played.

We have finally witnessed the leggendary RAZZOR!

You should know by now that Craaig is actually The Incredible Hulk.

Going out of your way to stop users adding content to their own copies because you want them to enjoy it the way you want is pretty silly. It just comes off as overprotective of the mod at the cost of the user experience to me.

Errr how are they going out of their way to prevent it? What he did was leave a folder titled "razer" in the components folder that had the banana parts because a bunch of people where constantly asking if Razer was going to be in the mod even after it was stated many times it couldn't for legal reasons.

[Mecha]

banana razer is very controversial
