I voted 3 because it could actually fight unlike 7 which can't do anything.

QFT.

You could probably rotate the snapper 180 degrees, have a 20cm extender with the side APs facing up, mount the t-connector off of that, attach the HPZs directly to the T connector. Then, attach another 20cm extender to the first one and put the plow there. Then, you'd get a more compact setup with better reach behind you.

@ Pwnator: The chassis was roughly like this:



Now try to klone it :P

@ Joe: Awww you make me sad T^T
I wanted to stick some razors or something on, but I just ran out of weight... I may try switching up some things (like the stabilizer setup) and see what comes out. I'm done for tonight though. 11:30 is past my bedtime :O

I think you guys are gonna like this one. I liked the VS so much, I made a MW to finish off the Wyvern series.

DSA, 1 black, and a ton of Trov glitching:



The only downside is that it only works on low resolution (or the game crashes - a side effect of the Trov glitch), so it's not very shiny.

Whatcha guys think?

I knew I could count on you to say the right thing... YOUR WORDS MAKE ME SO HAPPY.

Also, you need to build moar Stock d00d. Mabye you should get a new, shiny laptop or something...

RAIOactive. That must be like radioactive. But worse. Much, much worse.

Pretty good actually. If you didn't have that space between the wedges in the chassis, you could probably fit another battery in.

Well, I don't understand how Pwnator's VS is 2 kg heavier, yet I fit 9 kg more weapons and had the same of everything else...

Anyways, I made a LW to go with Wyvern. DSA, Nifty, etc. And sorry Sage, my splash skills are extremely limited :(



And I was never a closet minionbeetle! It's common knowledge that most people here are minionbeetles :O

NOW TELL ME HOW GREAT I AM :P

Only three razors?

That's like outfitting the entire US army with two RPGs and some plastic knives. Sure, you'll break stuff, but you'll be out of anything useful before too long :/

And that's the reason why I don't remember you :D

Most of the people here that have been around for a while (like myself, Sage, Scrap Daddy, Jack Daniels) popped up in around 2005/2006, you're a little before our time.

Some of the bots you posted in the Battleshots thread look pretty cool. Could you post some better angles in here? Thanks.

Wow, many good ones this month (*cough*Joe's is #7).

Hmm... # 3, 7, 9, 11, and 14 are all really good...

I'll go with #3, for excellent use of a chassis.

Well, while you do that Nary, I built a VS. It's the new cool thing to do!

DSA, 2 blacks, 8 static razors, 12 irons, 10 blades for stability and armour. The most stable VS I've made to date. It also looked cool enough for me to name it :D

Presenting Wyvern:



Hopefully this one will get more than 3 people commenting :P

I don't like BFE at all in any capacity. As soon as we say "BFE is okay as long as you can do it legitly," it opens up a whole can of worms. There is just too much grey area once that happens. What then is stopping someone new to RA2, unable to stack and unwilling to learn in-lab techniques like the rest of us, from just BFE'ing entire robots? Under that policy, they're completely legal despite the blatant and obvious cheating. Hell, Naryar's chassis shortening shouldn't even be allowed.

I think that saying "no BFE" does actually reduce BFE. For example, I do not think that Naryar or anyone else for that matter is actually able to construct the bot he just showcased. Therefore, the bot is illegal.

That just looks mean :O

How about trying to make a wider wheelbase though? It might improve stability.

Well, DSA is pretty much universally accepted these days, so don't worry about "unfair advantages" from it and the like. In fact, you're disadvantaging yourself not using it.

I can tell you've been playing for a while too. That bot has a really cool old-school pro feel to it. I suggest taking a look at some showcases (particularily Sage's, Pwnator's and Scrap Daddy's) to see just how far building in Stock has come.

And if you don't mind me asking, was Lennert your username when you were active, and what community were you active within? Was it the official Atari/Infogrames forums or one of the offshoots?

@ Nar: That would make sense, but unlike you, I'm not using my brain. I'm just regurgitating Left 4 Dead stuff that I recall reading on the L4D wiki xD

<L4Dgeek>

It's not really pregnant - this subgenus of zombie has been mutated to spit acidic phlegm on would-be prey and surviving humans. This phlegm has corroded away the entire lower jaw and most of the upper one too, and the neck is elongated to help propel the spit further distances. The "pregnancy" is merely a vat of acid brewing in the stomach.

EDIT: In other news, I've fixed the pic that was being a jerk.

New bot. Slightly exostacked anchors, DSA. It's invertible too. I'd always assumed that the maces large collision meshes made invertibility on HS impossible, but it turns out I was just doing it wrong.



I have 18 kg left and no idea what to do with it. Thoughts?
