Since nobody else posted a showcase, I will start it now.
EDIT: I updated my bot....and this pic (and changed the name) since it actually half way works now.

Hey, it looks cool though.
-
That is a lot better than mine...
-
Well... here is my entry for BBEANS, a multibot pair:
(https://gametechmods.com/uploads/images/89681BBEANS_Showcase1.JPG)
The first one is a popup.
(https://gametechmods.com/uploads/images/68417BBEANS_Showcase2.JPG)
The second one is a crappy rammer.
Well... there you go. These are not serious entries.
-
Ok, SC, etc... If CB will still accept it, here's my 'showing':
No extensive tweeking in this one either. It was an experimental HW version of a MW bot I made for one of Ian's tourneys (last year?)...
So don't feel too bad, ACAMS, I'm right with you.
'ArrowHead_HW'.

Heres mine:
(https://gametechmods.com/uploads/images/42404cocytus.jpg)
Im probably going to rebuild it due to horrible wedges. Plus its only 2wd now :(
I might even send something completely different.
-
im embarrassed to show mine.
-
^^Should be named Cheap Win 3000.
And ACAMS your's one heck of a cool bot... might have lowered the irons though.
(https://gametechmods.com/uploads/images/56447pita7.JPG)
That's what i entered.
4 razors on each DDT is... well, heavy, and even if this is probably my best popup, the razors get ripped off too easily for my linking, and that caster armor isn't that great in defense, and is a pain to climb by other wedged robots.
I have also a Mome Rath ripoff with wedges, 16 irons on small discs and 4WD HPZ, but it's too fragile for my liking.
-
well I'm doomed, mines like a FS/juggler/HS hybrid but the wedge design isn't good at all.. but at least it's different.
-
Since nobody else posted a showcase, I will start it now.
Here is my useless piece of junk that does not work as well as I had hoped it would.
[freakishly cool looking bot]
Those "jaws" need to be just a wee bit wider, it looks like. As is, they'll stop bots before they can touch the drills.
And it also needs to be actually sent in, if you still plan to do that.
-
I did send it, but I have reworked it slightly since then and will resend it and new bindings today.
-
Well make sure you re-send it to the correct address because I never got the original.
-
Anyway, Here's mine. The splash is before Click told me of the spelling error.

Sucks your bot could look like this:

But this is my (potential) entry:
(https://gametechmods.com/uploads/images/41070AC update.bmp)
Surprised?
-
That doesn't matters anymore, i'm going to enter a new bot that is original, decently cool looking and most importantly it owns.
-
Well.... now I know that I'm screwed.
-
Well I updated my bot, and pic on page 1......it actually works better now, but is still not the best bot ever made, but will do as an entry with a chance to win a few matches. Maybe after I get the bindings and .py tweeked it will be even better.
-
I need to learn how to use the glitches and how to stack components... if I can't do that then I'm screwed whenever I try to enter a stock tournament.

I didn't glitch anything for mine! (except a stacked battery... but that just takes patience)
-
Double POsT.
You all know my entry, but i had my friend Famo Wx build a bot when click was still looking for more entrants. I taught him how to use extenders wisely (my skinned extender helped here) and he just put as many weapons as he could fit.
(https://gametechmods.com/uploads/images/66165screenshot_42.jpg)
pretty slow though.
-
I fooled around with making a few bots for BBEANS, but decided to just tweak an old favorite of mine. It got crushed by Starcore in the All Around Bot Builder Competition, but after a few adjustments, it might do better now.
Edit: guess i can't count XP it has 16 iron spikes... not the 12 indicated in the splash. Man, too much drinking this weekend.

What's with the Samurai Swords and Pole Spikes O_o? Anyhow, here's my entry. A Favorite of mine called Vela (Named after my favorite song, "Vela, Together We Await the Storm").

Mine, called Generic Rammer. I am fundamentally opposed to glitch-abusing, for some unknown reason, which is why there's no stacking.
-
looks like there's a lot of rammers... my robot might be able to beat them :)
-
I divided my popup by 2.
All i wish is not a HS as opponent.
-
D'ya know you could fit a nifty in there C33?
-
(https://gametechmods.com/uploads/images/34473Spearhead10.jpg)
Good old Spearhead, no changes to the one in my showcase(except skin). I could have used Your Doom too, but I didnt want to use a HS in this tournament too, because thats all I have entered so far in all tournaments.
-
C-33, you have some extra weight there you could take advantage of..., in a couple ways.
Nice poker SSG. Looks cool and effective.

-
here is my entry, Its properly the closest thing to a bye match someones going to get lol.... maybe ill get lucky only time will tell, but you have to start somewhere right ?
(http://i148.photobucket.com/albums/s36/westcoastdrags/SHOCK.png)
nothing too fancy :-D Im not exactly sure if that is a picture of the final one I sent click or not lol
-
Seems like I'm going to be in a bit of trouble. :s

Ideal Tyrant clone >< now we have 2.....

here's my Hybrid, Sandstorm (will get a paint job):
(https://gametechmods.com/uploads/images/36378sandstorm.JPG)
basically it gets under other bots and grinds away, should be the only bot with that setup in the tourney and could get a win.. depends on the draw and i haven't been lucky with the draw at all so far. exposed motors and below par wedge are it's weaknesses >.>
-
Condor, I'm sure you can remove the pinks and then reduce chassis size. Then you will be able to add more weapons. 1 Supervolt is enough for a HW Rammer, and pinks suck when used on HWs :approve:
Also Ian, why are there Slipperbottoms on that bot? Does it not touch the floor with hubs? :S
-
i think it's because the plows are too low to the ground and hubs wouldn't touch the ground.

Try turning them upside-down and then try hubs.

I am also entering bbeans 5
my actual bot is Oscillation Overthruster 2 below. It has 4 right angles( all i could fit), 4 hp ztecs inside each other(i used snappers) and dual razors at each end of the extended tribar.
(https://gametechmods.com/forums/attachment.php?attachmentid=283&d=1239053265)
OO 1 is the original version. I redid it because the motors and wheels were exposed. Also the weapon was weak and very unstable.
(https://gametechmods.com/forums/attachment.php?attachmentid=284&d=1239053295)
I might have a chance at winning
oh and can someone pm me to help me with actually showing pics in the post. It would be very helpful.
-
Chance at winning, HAH!
-
Hey, wanna fight online so I can shove that porcupine shaped object up your ass?
-
Really guys.... go easy on him.

What about Venko's porcupine shaped SHW? It's bigger and it expands! :evilsmile:

Urjak: Can we go a little harsh?
-
sniff sniff. yha guys stop bein mean.
-
i <3 original robots... why not build a cool robot with a funky design?
-
Because there are no original designs in stock.
-
there's plenty of designs no one has thought of yet....
-
Amen S32.

Old splash, old bot, what do you expect from somebody who can't build worth crap anymore? The skin for BBEANS is better though.
-
I haven't seen any like towering inferno.(the one which uses its spike arms to roll around)
-
I haven't seen any like dr.inferno.(the one which uses its spike arms to roll around)
That would be Towering Inferno
-

Sage has an entry using the same principle.
Expect a new popup in several hours.

In honor of the upcoming May 2009 Terminator Salvation movie I decided to update and enhance the Starcore v4 T-800 Terminator.

* 2 Stacked Supervolt 12V Batteries
* 2 Snapper II Burst Motors
* 2 External Mount Wide Displacement HP Z-Tek Drive Motors
* 3 Bursted HP Z-Tek Attack Motors
* 3 Rotator Bars
* 3 Aligned Maces per Arm (27 in Total)
* 4 Overlapping Weapon Braking Ram Plates
* 2 Weapon Breaker/Ramming Razor Tips
* Highly Efficient Chassis Design
* Lean Invertible Profile
* Strong Battery:Motor Ratio for Maximum Attack in the Opening Minute
Bursted HP Z-Tek and Weapon Stacked DDT Burst Motors are getting so strong that a good Offensive is an agressive Defense. Rather then focus on maximum weapons possible it becomes critical to protect the chassis and wheels from attacks and breaking the opponents weapons while maximizing the damage that occurs when your hits occur.
Thus was chosen an aggressive defense (Ram Plates block and still do half damage in response vs Snow Plows only block). Double thick Ram Plates in theory do that much more reply damage. With tripple aligned Maces on each arm doing 50% more damage per hit then double aligned weapon solutions.
Setting the chassis back and thin profile reduces chances of chassis hits by over the top or under attacks.
The forward mounted Razor Tips were a use of remaining weight to catch and break that many more weapons. Yes I know they are half hit points. Better then leaving the weight unused and can be used for late round ramming as needed. If I can round up 4 more KG will upgrade them to Maces or Iron Spikes.
In testing the T-800 Terminator shredded other HS designs (even when they had more Maces or Iron Spikes), ripped apart VS designs and in general tore the weapons right off Pop-ups. Potentially vulnerable to Over-the-top Hammer bots and there is always the random lucky Havok hit to weapon motors in the early seconds of a fight that can seriously upset a match. A Juggler can sometimes perfectly trap the Terminator and wreck havok.
Just add 2.1KG of flesh for a perfect 800KG Terminator.
As Derek Reese says, "Aim for the Chip"

Nice. Pretty good for someone who hasn't built anything in a long time :D.
-
EDIT: no you can't use a 20cm rather than a t extender.
You could still use pointy tips or pole spikes... yeah they have decals.

Did they kill them with a loose-leaf notebook?:-D

*flushing toilet noise*
Didja here that? That was my chances.

Thread derailed.

NO chance of winning whatsoever for me. My bot may do fairly good against some of the rammers, though.

Your bot will do nothing against any bot and like it. The only bots it has a whim in heck against are the Fang Brothers (maybe), and Tsunami.

Oh my lord... Are you seriously trying to spread a sig picture around the GTM forums? Loser.

Guys, nice job on all the bots. Some unique designs there. Can't wait to see the videos.
