24 teams involved and I think 8 will be reserves. I know 1 or 2 or the UK teams are reserves.

. That's a lot of reserves. Does it mean that 1/3 of the bots won't get to see any action?

You won't see all the fights, a number of competitors are featured and you will see their fights only. I'm not sure how many are featured.

Are they going to offer DVDs of the raw footage like they did in the original run?

How are you suppose to get 3 days of filming out of all this...

Filler

cephalopod · « **Reply #226 on:** May 12, 2015, 10:04:52 AM »

It takes a long time to film even 1 fight, robots have to be checked, loaded in, everything prepared, then the fight, load out, clean up etc. Plus I imagine there will be rumbles and stuff.
I believe it took like 2 days to film an episode of RW? Someone more knowledgeable can correct me there.

Thinking about it this makes like no sense at all. Do you have confirmation from somewhere?

Jarvis_Rapture · « **Reply #228 on:** May 12, 2015, 10:08:58 AM »

No, I know this because I asked a roboteer who was accepted to BB, and roboteers can't keep this stuff to themselves :P

I believe Ray Billings will be a featured competitor.

Who is the guy with the big imagination who thinks Beta competed at Robot Wars Live?

http://battlebots.wikia.com/wiki/Beta

Seriously who?

Beta was tested at Robots Live. If you're unsure what actually went on, ask someone who was there for God's sake before publishing it to the internet.

just realised there is an active weapon rule

mentorn v2 confirm

Resetti's Replicas · « **Reply #232 on:** May 12, 2015, 02:48:01 PM »

So much for La Machine

Badnik96 · « **Reply #233 on:** May 12, 2015, 05:47:10 PM »

La Machine had a weapon at the end, though.

Also I put some thought into it and the girls' team they were talking about is probably Carrollton. Possibly with Nola Garcia as their mentor.

If there are eight featured competitors then we see all the fights :V

Not if they fight each other

qwertythe300th · « **Reply #236 on:** May 13, 2015, 10:29:56 AM »

Do we know if the shows going to be 1 hour or 30 minutes?

Badnik96 · « **Reply #237 on:** May 13, 2015, 01:19:13 PM »

I heard Chinkilla is coming back. Can anyone confirm?

Given that the account was created today and that's their only post the legitimacy is highly suspect.

Poll

Who do you think will win the Giant Nut?
