Title: So what has happened since I have been gone
Post by: courthousedoc on June 23, 2015, 05:57:44 PM
So I recently picked up Robot Arena 2 to livestream it a few weeks back and wondered how the community has been since I left years ago, can anyone fill me in?

Really cool RA2 Robot wars mod has been worked on, the thread is worth a close read. No huge building innovations as far as I remember but I've been pretty out of it also. Ironforge is new though, and is cool.

okay because like tzeentch, cegorach and creed have been eyeing that spot in my signature that [redacted, no pones] is currently inhabiting.

anyway I don't remember how long you've been gone but there's a dood named Sic working on the ye olde 'what if someone here made RA3' idea before we caught wind of the real RA3 mccoy from scoutmaster gabriel himself. Called Scrapmatch. Plenty of content in it already and it's worth a wook.

Woah woah woah. Ok. I'm sorta back as well I suppose. Honestly got back here after looking at a post that I saw on Facebook about Battlebots that took me to some site that used an image that I thought I recognized the style and the source of (turns out I was right) and then after looking on his site I found a link to back here.

So what's this about RA3? I mean no offense to who made the image but, it makes me think it was quickly whipped up and it's fake. Did they forget to pay for the domain and someone quickly snatched it up and made a thing for it or is this for real for real?

EDIT: So after doing a quick search. It turns out the site is one Dracophile (RFS) either runs or is a big part of. Nice use of that Narse image by the way.

it looked suspicious at first but people did digging and some emails went around to the devs and most people think it's real now

Yea that's what I saw in the thread. The logo looks weird. Most of it looks fine, but that text looks straight from 1996 or earlier. Supposedly TDS sorta knows something about it? At least from what I gathered in the thread. By the sound of it from him, it seemed like we're getting something super half assed. But the small other blurbs (which of course they're going to be spun that way) make it seem it'll at least be more worth it than RA2? I dunno. It's just a wait and see game at this point I suppose really.

Just downloaded Ironforge and DSL 2.1. Man. It's been a while. I remember when DSL 1 was in the works :3

Haha, well here's hoping it's at least upgraded garbage :D
