Did you just discover autism can be used as an insult?

Come on, at least be creative.

Yeah, there's only a few heavyweights in Robot Wars that could really put up a strong performance against most Battlebots machines.

Well it looks like BBC iPlayer has blocked my VPN now.. anyone know anywhere else this can be watched?

Someone on Reddit often uploads footage of just the fights about a day after the episode.

Still don't understand why Storm 2 have this bad rep. Brute force is something to be admired, especially the way they walloped Steel Avenger out of the arena completely.

I didn't think they did? Unless they talked about it on the show.. I was watching while doing something on Teamspeak, might have missed a few lines.

Great episode though. I expected a classic just from seeing Storm and PP3D (as the successor to Typhoon) as well as seeing Eruption for the first time, but there was plenty to get excited about all round.

It seems to be lumped in the same category as Tornado as just "a box on wheels" amongst some fans. While I prefer Storm 2 to Tornado, I think both are unfair judgements, and that the brute power of the push is an amazing, and underappreciated ability.

To be brutally honest, when you get down to it, GTM is a website dedicated to a relatively obscure game that received no major advertising that caters to a specific hobby, and that's putting it lightly. The fact that the RA2 community is going as strong as it is, considering it was released 12 years ago, is really a testament to the loyalty of the community to the game. Look at how much we've advanced the game from its initial starting point, and it's absolutely ground-breaking. I know that a lot of the members on here weren't responsible for these feats, but much as you watch the Olympics and feel pride when your nation wins a medal, we should give ourselves as a collective a pat on the back and commend ourselves for what we've done.

Have we done all we can do with the Robot Arena series? Robot Arena 1 is a dead-zone. Robot Arena 2 has been squeezed for almost every drop it has and been put on over-time, and Robot Arena 3 was a tragedy. I really appreciate the Re-Tooled pack you've been doing to increase the diversity of the game and hopefully add some more playtime hours to the game itself AS, and mods like the Robot Wars pack have been instrumental in increasing my interest in the game also. But the necessity for a new robotic combat game (one that is actually somewhat close to good) is really what we need now. There's only so many times you can fill the cracks of one game (especially such an obscure game), before people move on to other things and leave RA2 behind.

I always liked Mike from the old series but I thought the new DTK team were great entertainment myself.. driving could use some improvement though haha, DanTomKia is one of those robots you need to be pretty accurate with given the smaller setback arm..

Also, curious.. why was it so cold? is that to do with the weather? or the venue itself? does anyone know?

Glasgow. That is all.

I think it's more for entertainment purposes to reach to a wider audience. It's the reason bots like Granny's Revenge made it into the original run despite more prospective robots being turned down.
