I was just fighting 2 Borg Queens with my SHW (1340 kg). Quite easy...

I knew this would be a "explosive" match...

But if I expected that...

Servo-rupt flipper. MW. throwing SirK over the ceiling.

Works using the havok explosion servos do when twisted too much. a lot of my stock spinners suffered of that.

Havok explosion is that were you hit a piston cannister or something and you and the AI go flying around?

Havok explosions risk occurring when you break an external motor, or best, if you break stacked motors, servo/burst-enhanced motors, or use stacked pistons. See Venko's Total Chaos for a good havok example.

Ripblade is pretty good on havoking too.

Yea, a havok is when a bot moves violently and without apparent reason. An "explosion", to make short.

...Resulting in damage to the havoking bot or to any bot around it...

Speaking of Havoc explosions...
Im not sure what is exactly a havoc explosion but whats this : ...
Sometimes when my bots have just regular pistons ( not for glitch ) they are ok in garage but when i start fighting in arena vs AI sometimes my bots get buggy and disappear in the black void...Then i dont see it but AI oponent start to hang around and game start to countdown for me... Exactly look like if you forget to remove anti-ballast and test bot but i dont have anti-ballast on this bots so...
Is this a havoc explosion too ?...
If you cant get it i can make a video or somethin ...
I dont know way this happen to me... The same bots are OK on other computers... But i didnt do something with my game... Its a clean install of 1.3 patch only and Starcore... No more things added.
Please someone help me to remove this "Hudini disappear glitch" ... I cant use normaly my bots...
:cry:

This is getting out OOTA. Yes, this happens, but it is rare for me.

No, if you stack pistons with another thing, or use too much pistons, it lags. And if you use glitches in multiplayer, it lags more (see your BW that went OOTA in 2 secs)

So, when a robot desides it doesin't wana fight and leapes out fo the arena it's called the OOTA glitch?(lol, I just had to make it a little funnier)

I had a cool havok one time. I was a stacked hs with irons playing my freinds hs and it was towards the end of the fight and we had lost most of our spikes. It started to havok and irons were flying through the air and it wouldnt stop. It looked awesome.

Naryar · « **Reply #9 on:** June 07, 2008, 04:17:13 PM »

Yeah. That happened to me too in multi. One time I was fighting with CUDA, Venko and Sage. I saw razors vibrating in the air, or stuck in the wall, broken wheels making spirals on the ground for no reason, or worse getting teared for no reason.

Or even Venko's Lil Chaos getting OOTA in 2 secs in another fight.

Multi is a PitA to fight when it lags badly, but if you like seeing crazy havok explosions (way meaner than in single), it's paradise.

This was a cool looking glitch. This one-man combat vehicle, armed with 4 of madbeaver's cannons and 4 of ACAMS' (unreleased) Machine guns, both on a Rotory Gatlin-Gun system, obliterated the other bot in it's track (leaving only the wheels... hehe). I wish I'd had Fraps running, because the sparks were flying more than I'd ever seen...

Clickbeetle · « **Reply #11 on:** June 07, 2008, 08:35:30 PM »

Whoa, what happened to the chassis?

Does that always happen when you use that bot?

Madiaba · « **Reply #12 on:** June 07, 2008, 10:10:49 PM »

If a bot is hit by 3+ cannon balls symultaneously, and just right, then this will happen,... although often the bot is just totally anihilated with no trace or such fireworks display.

Lupus · « **Reply #13 on:** June 08, 2008, 04:16:18 AM »

WHoooa i wish i got the picture at earlier stage he was bouncing of the walls.As you can see im playing as AI Minion.

Naryar · « **Reply #14 on:** June 08, 2008, 05:17:21 AM »

Awesome.

But, technically, where's the chassis? OOTA, ruined in a corner, or flying ??

Lupus · « **Reply #15 on:** June 08, 2008, 07:42:36 AM »

i took the picture after it was over i was to busy watching cheat bot parts scatter everywhere

Preytor_4 · « **Reply #16 on:** July 13, 2010, 02:40:16 PM »

Bump

I was facing EMERGENCY (When i first joined and thought he was the hardest bot) he exploded and flipped into a pit when i was at 3 being counted out

Don't have any.
At the time i didn't know how to take pics and it was a LOOOOOOOOOONG time ago

martymidget · « **Reply #19 on:** July 13, 2010, 02:48:01 PM »

Nice 2 year bump...

Best havok I've had is against a flail shell spinner in DSL...threw me out of the combat arena. Still don't know how that works.
