Only bit we didn't already have from this was the OrangeBall name. Interesting, guessing they're the designers as you say.

I think the Eric guys were expecting it.
Eric has a big future though :) they could actually get it into the form it was pre-Gabriel probably within an hour or so.

And Gabriel's awesome Badger, if only for the scale of the thing. Pretty sure it's taller than me.

If you think you've contributed in a serious, meaningful way to the development of RA2...

Moros blades, TRB.

Not a lot anyone can say about this Wen, people don't generally build with cheatbot parts.

I just want an arena that's just a gauntlet of deathtraps before you make it to an arena in the middle to fight the other bots. I doubt that'd be possible in RA2, though.

So like the Obstacle Course in DSL?

One day I will actually finish an ant.

Have a cardboard mockup with random internals thrown inside and mockup cardboard flipper replaced with real polycarb flipper.

Nice work on the wins with TBS. Only saw the Jaguar/Termite match on the stream, did seem like something was wrong. Look forward to seeing the rebuild.

GOG and Humble do have a big online place as well with GOG even featuring their own, completely optional, client(still in beta but looks promising). It's just that steam's more known to all those "normal" people, but as soon as you ask other guys with more advanced knowledge they will know about DRM free games.

As for DRM, if you think that it protects piracy, then I'll have to tell you that it doesn't do that much, not going to go into any details, but unless it has specialized valve stuff in it, it's very easy to bypass, and hey even if it isn't, all it's going to do is keep the small pirates away while big ones(not going to name any names here) will still get it done and be the main distribution source, so in the end it only helps the bigger ones getting more and more popular.

Yeah, as you say, Steam's more well known to the general public, so not publishing there would be a dumb af marketing move.
And I'm not saying the DRM will do much. Just that it would be a plus to devs who want to try and make money by making it harder to pirate. Understandable, in my opinion.

Looks real nice man. Hoping it does well for your project and in combat!
What motor are you running the disc on/what reduction, out of curiosity?

the spinner reminds me a lot of Witch Doctor from Battlebots 2015.

...the skull? Probably one of the single tooth discs least like this one :P

There's a bunch of pluses for a dev really. Prebuilt online marketplace with loads of exposure/existing users and DRM stuff I imagine are 2 of the biggies.

Moved thread from Public Tournament Discussion to Challenge Board.
I mean really, come on.

I don't think releasing those will benefit the community, honestly. Could cause more harm than good, decreasing the skill needed for certain builds, but equally as long as the rules for tournaments/building styles are clear, it might not make a lot of difference...
At the end of the day, this is all yours to do as you wish with.
