Can someone reup the video to yt, I can't watch steam vids on my phone
http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=pPoVzmYhUkI&feature=youtu.be&ab_channel=ReierI#huh. wonder how much it'll change by the time it's done. It looks cheap which is to be expected, I just hope it's a lot of fun. I'm actually surprised how much of just RA2: HD it is. It's got like the same stock components and everything. I wonder how different the physics engine is too, like how it handles damage and if components can still pass through each other.
some things i noticed: components such as motors can now pass through the chassis apparently unless they change it later. you can also move components once you've placed them now, thank heavens almighty that needed to be in the game from the beginning. It looks like you can also edit the chassis without removing components too, and seems like components are locked to a grid, but at least the grid looks like it could let you be fairly precise. the component rotation on the other hand looks like it is too precise, it was nice to have set angles on that just to line things up right. its pretty hilarious how the axles rotate after attaching a motor just like in ra2.
Also the flextop arena remake has animated textures for the crowd. I wonder how painting will be in here, it would be nice if you could export textures like before.
didn't see a weight or weightclass class anywhere, even component weights other than that "mass-power-pneumatic-dps" thing on the upper right which doesn't look coded yet.
I really hope they clean up the HUD before release, it seems pretty amateur. I'm also worried on how close the game is to release and how the botlab seems like it has some pretty iffy coding. cross your fingers for easy modding either way.
also no word on how much it'll be. since it's a BB/RW cash grab I bet it'll be pretty cheap. I wouldn't be too hard on the devs either, I bet for many of them it's their first real game.
