Are you considering doing a closed-in arena this time around?

Well this is a lovely thread to wake up to.

Thank you Robo, Sage, Scrap & the community that supports this.  I think this will be an exciting step in a new direction with Stock.

The most exciting part about this for me is I can finally make a bot that uses Airtanks without having a super large chassis.  That always irked me.

Well done with the writeup and research.  This is huge.

3 minutes of nothing but ramming and pushing per match?  Uhm... It honestly sounds kinda boring to me.

Or they stick to an older OS?

Some of the die-hards would.  But, with time, people would upgrade eventually and the game would be left in the dust.  It's kinda inevitable.

Just made a hoverbot shell spinner and the shell span fine.

Seriously? the shell span and the chassis didn't?  (just like a real shell spinner)

I didn't think...

I...

I..

*faint*

I honestly thought that Windows 7 was going to be the death of this game.

When I found out it was compatible (even though it is just as tempermental as it always has been) I was thrilled.

This is a unique game with a unique community... I don't see any possibility of a new robot combat game being made.  Sorry dreamers and programmers.

That being said... if a new Windows Operating system comes out in the future that is 100 percent incompatible with RA2.  The community will dwindle and then die.  But, we still have a lot of years left at this rate. :D

Also, you can see JD's special decal in the last match  :gawe:

Yeah... I was trying to think of a theme for my bot so I used Google to find out what exactly the heck a "Gaff" is.  It is a fish-hook thingy.

Turns out there is a fishing magazine called "Gaff" which features bikini clad models on the covers.

Learn something uselessly new everyday.

Good thing #5 is in the lead. I voted for that one. Because it will be instresting to me to build a flying Sheck Spinner.

Well good luck making a bot in which the chassis stays stationary-airborne while the shell spins independently.

I feel your pain man.  It took me an entire evening to line up the tornado wedges just right on El Chupacabra.  The connection point on it is crazy.  :P

Woot! The poll system is going to make this tourney waaaaaaay better. 

And hopefully it will motivate some builders to try a bit harder.

I am totally entering this now that you are doing the pre-vote.

As suggested by Jack Daniels. Thanks. xD

You are welcome! Can't wait to see the entries for this.

Don't forget to figure out an arena too.

Lower it to plastic armor (it's not going to get hit very often with that design).

Use the spare weight to mount a DSL bar Vertically on the other attachment point for the perm... that should protect the motor nicely and probably keep the bot alive longer than titanium would on the chassis.

Do a Stock MW ninja challenge... where the only weapons you can use are Samurai Swords and Throwing Stars.  All other non-weapons are allowed (the only exception being ramplates which can be used even though they do damage).

With two jobs, community service, hobbies, relationships, and a plethora of responsibilities... I just don't have the time or patience to invest even 20 minutes into trying to stack two blacks in a chassis the
"old fashioned" way.  Even if I succeed I still have this empty void in my soul that nags me for wasting 20 minutes of my life.  :P

Any tool that makes this easier/less time consuming gets my attention.

@ Sonny's recent rep.

I could be wrong... but isn't there a way to initiate reflective properties in a skin?  I think you have to modify the properties of armor types and then apply them to the bot.

Voted for this. Freez pulled off a clean tourney recently. He's got my respect.

Edit: Doh! Freez isn't hosting RIW... It is groudon.  Hmmmm... still voted for it though.  Got confused for some reason... that is what I get for posting when I just woke up.
