Kind of ambivalent about it. I loved Robot Arena 2, and put probably a hundred hours into it; and this looks like more of the same. By which I mean it literally looks like the same game. Literally everything in that movie, and everything on the Steam page, look like it is from the second game. The second game with HD textures, a different interface and Steam Workshop isn't the most horrible thing, but where is the "3" part?

The new 5-point chassis creation system and the fact that you now can chance the shape of the chassis while still having the bot parts attached instead of having to redo all over again qualifies as major sequel features i reckon.


The latter certainly would be good advancements if true, but there doesn't seem to be any proof of that advancement to the series existing that I can find. The video appears to show that, but there is no explanation to how it works or what the limitations are. The Steam page has some marketing blurb that are so generic that they could easily apply to the second game in relation to the first as much as they can to the third in relation to the second.

 

I'm someone who has played the second game, a lot, and I'm not really sure what the advancements are here because barely any information has been released. How is this supposed to help people new to the series?

okay how do I tell this guy that RA3 is a legitimate sequel to RA2 and not just RA2HD ?

Well I hope they have heavier components then the RA2 stock ones anyway (heck, more is always better, more motor options, alternative brands with empathsis on more power or less drain, something better then the DDT for heavyweights), or at least not nearly as much weight available to a heavyweight, just so IRL is encouraged rather then 36 mace spinners. I guess we can be sure DSA won't be a thing anymore so chassis armour will become a factor and might help that
Well if they bother to include proper damage calculations this time then IRL would be the only effective way to build since 36-mace spinners (and popups) rely on the fact that RA2 doesn't consider mass on it's damage calculations.

Alright guys, stop with the stereotipes, I'm being dead serious here, the fact that NO ONE (not even Rockpapershotgun) has relayed the game's release on a news site really worries me.

Alright, I think I've updated the OP with everything that's happened since the tournament got moved.  Lemme know if I made a mistake.

bbut geice-san we're destined to fight each other
Are you signing up?  Sorry, I couldn't tell.

Anyway, please continue entering and forming rivalries.  Don't send any bot types just yet; I'd like to get the rivalries all sorted out before moving into the bot types part.  Current deadline for entering is March 23rd, will be extended as proves necessary.
Yes.

I know you've sworn to never use glitches but there's a MUCH lighter way to attach the drive which would let you attach some armor on the bot.

Oh, and one more thing, when you're using SnapperII wedges NEVER EVER attach anything to the other attachment point, doing that makes the wedges more than useless and will cost you a tournament which is how Psycolone found about this the hard way.

People may call dibs on stuff, even if it has nothing official (it's more like "may or may not build X"), yes.

I'd rather not see people cal dibs on entire teams, however, you are free to "claim" some bots in Spike Heads, yeah. You'll be able to submit full teams as you desire (well, apart from a few conventions) once we are done with the original teams.
Oh okay then, I can do the extra bots for Team Dragon if you let me.

Anyone gonna stick to ra2? Out of curiosity btw.. :baffled:
Unless RA3 lets you stack I'm gonna alternate between both (Stock when I wanna make crazy bots and RA3 when I want to make IRL)

oh hey stock, i've missed you
i'll enter, obviously
also i'd prefer the RA2T2 Arena but it seems you've already decided on the Ring Arena so it doesn't really matter
Ring Arena's way more balanced (you can't get cornered in the Ring Arena)
