2 bots that are going in Infinitexinertia AI Pack for my team
I have a LW done, but it keeps friken havoking!!!=(
Possible motto: "Our vvv-Recon plane will find them!"
Like them?
-
Photshop I see. =P
The MW might be better with more razors, though.
-
But it needs that ramplate
-
from the picture that you have posted it does not look like more razors would effect the ram plate. Maybe its just the picture but other then that great bots.
-
HINT HINT its a middle weight =) I cant go over 399!
By far it is one of my favorite bots I have ever made in my life
-
I hate my showcases... =(
-
You should have entered Terrific Terrorification in BBEANS; you would have been the only 4WD VS and it's probably better than the black plague. Plus it looks pretty cool.
Worst Way 2 Die needs more weapons; 4 razors only cuts it on a popup and that's just barely scraping by. Maybe you could move the discs lower so that they protect the chassis more, therefore eliminating the need for a ram plate? It also looks like you could use a smaller chassis to get more weapon weight. But it's a cool and original design, especially for a MW.
-
I made it after the bbeans started, way after
I'll try to improve it in those ways

-
lovely lol .. your skinning of components really makes these things look cool
-
Hell in Disguise would actually sound cooler.
-
lovely lol .. your skinning of components really makes these things look cool
thanks =)
I made a pop up a while ago called heck in disguise, that looked harmless, but this is sorta obviously dangerous looking:gunz:
Another going into inf's AI pack
(https://gametechmods.com/uploads/images/88349screenshot_27.jpg)
-
Hmmm... try to be more conservative with the snappers so you can have more weapons.
-
As well as getting shinies.

Nice.
-
Yeah, I think Ill put shiney wheels on it.
(https://gametechmods.com/uploads/images/92294geARED.png)
EDIT: another bot, spare weright though
(https://gametechmods.com/uploads/images/38080scrub.jpg)
-
Ice picks have normals which means bad for FSs. It looks ok though.
Definitely, uh... different...
-
Interesting way of skinning things... I might take an idea or two from this. if i ever get my computer fixed that is.
-
gimmie some credit if u do please
-
gimmie some credit if u do please
Of course.
-
yay =)
-
Both of those bots are odd, but both of them look pretty good so yea. Nice bots.
-
I fought these online, they were pretty wacky in combat too. =P I got Creamed by HNID.
-
ok, worst way to die, I finally finished it up
(https://gametechmods.com/uploads/images/90366WORSTWAYTODIE2.jpg)
Notice the splashes suck, free photoshop had like 5 trojans...
-
What's the snapper on the left doing?
-
Wedge.
-
No, that's the snapperII.
-
wedge
-
Which one is the wedge? The Green or blue snapper? And what's the other one doing?
-
here Ill geta better pic of it
EDIT: (https://gametechmods.com/uploads/images/77840wedge.jpg)
-
Oh, ok. the Green is a wedge (rupting? =S), and the blue holds the weapons.
-
it doesn't rupt =(
EDIT: I tested it and its worse now Ima try making it again
-
Is it supposed to?
-
if it did it would be nice
-
New Bot For Inf's AI pack, probably replacing my rammer
(https://gametechmods.com/uploads/images/36532screenshot_45.gif)
-
I can't really see it that well...
-
Hmm, I like the weapon system...
-
Ooo, nice work getting a ram plate on a 36HS. Looks like regular Z-tek drive and a tiny chassis got you the weight. I would just rotate it 90 degrees horizontal so it covers more motors. Perhaps change it to a snow plow so it covers even more.
I would also switch the rear mace and the iron spike, so the weapons make a roughly triangular shape, like this:
O
||O
||==
Because that rear mace isn't going to be hitting much where it is. As a final touch, you could angle the extender down, so the iron spikes would nail any popups attempting to get under you.
-
thanks for the help, I will see what I can do, I was considering the ramplate to be rotated, but I wasn't sure if it would make it better
-
Ooo, nice work getting a ram plate on a 36HS.
Oh! Oh! Mine has a ramplate AND a mace :D
Lol just had to say it.
-
Thought is was a lawnmower blade and a mace... =P
-
Is Sage talking about Krome?
-
Is Sage talking about Krome?
yes. and i meant a lawn mower blade. same weight. :P
-
(https://gametechmods.com/uploads/images/51883weedge.jpg)
I also beat one of reiers mw hs with this
EDIT: you could blame it on lag
-
Hey....
-
I editted it =D
-
Meh, I was just kidding, I don't mind really. =P
-
any comments???
-
Better pictures please.
-
Try to get more battleshots against double-wedged bots. XD
-
How about, a picture of the actual bot. I can't even see what it is--a popup? I'm guessing? An inside shot would help...
-
It's a popup, I should know. =P The thing gets under just about anything.
-
(https://gametechmods.com/uploads/images/70199TeAMDuck.jpg)
I think that will be my team For Inf's AI pack, I may make a few changes
EDIT: nobody like?[8(]
-
Im so bored, I will show my fail bots
(https://gametechmods.com/uploads/images/53200FAILS.jpg)
-
Uber Chicken drill ftw!
-
Too bad the HS/Drill hybrid sucked. That had a lot of potential. Perhaps if you could turn it into a HS/Rammer hybrid it would be better.
And I don't get your LW HS. XD
For your team for Inf's pack, I kinda liked the earlier version of Helicopter better. Robotic Wave looks cool, but maybe the Z-Tek could be upgraded if the chassis was a bit tighter.
Hmmm... maybe I should make a team for Inf's pack, too.
-
the chiken drill just probably needs a wedge, but I would have to spare some of its weapons
The lightweight hs was more of an experiment, I thought it would trap the other lw's a little
robotic wave has 6 spare weight, but there is a decimal so no extra castor, and a hp ztec would be higher up which is too high
-
All of those bots are... really odd
-
The component skins piss off my eyes.
-
the ram plates do the same to me, I think I may change them
-
All of those bots are... really odd
which ones? The fail ones are for sure
The Ramplates are ugly I have to say, I think I will change that skin
-
odd useless stack
(https://gametechmods.com/uploads/images/48351lolzivles.jpg)
-
Interesting...
-
dosnt save any space!
if u have the batt normal , it would fit just as fine.
-
Which is why he said usless.
-
at least someone reads my titles
-
GAH FAILS !!! !!!
(https://gametechmods.com/uploads/images/16428GFAIOSADASd.jpg)
-
...
-
quit making useless posts!
-
I think you could do something with the hammer bot with some tweaks. Try curvy hammers with razors, and a smaller chassis.
The one with the Redbirds... cool concept, but that's never going to be effective.
-
The problem is mostly wedges, if I can not get under spiTe in the PYS AI, I usually consider the bot a fail
-
allot of free spaceeee
(https://gametechmods.com/uploads/images/45209tetris.jpg)
hard to drive straight
-
What's the weight?
-
turn the baseplate anchors 90 degrees and use the regular attachment point on the extender to make the motors' flat sides parallel to the ground. Then use shinies.
-
shineys don't work, not large enough
weight: 394
-
They would if you turned the motors 90 degrees wouldn't they?
-
how? it would still be at the same height?
-
how? it would still be at the same height?
Yes, but the flat side would be pointing down instead of the pointy side. The pointy side is taller; the Z-tek model isn't a perfect circle.
Nice bot.
-
Ok thanks guys, I will see what I can do
EDIT: Btw I made this yesterday also, forgot to post it though, its suuuppper fast, and I had extra weight, so it has 2 stacked batteries. It is really hard to control
(https://gametechmods.com/uploads/images/70103CROOEKD.jpg)
-
How easy is stacking?
-
batteries, for me, take 4 seconds to 5 minutes
-
Whats the best angle for you, I only stacked it once, never got the right angle again.
-
You mean view angle? I like a birds eye view, or a 45 degree angle
-
Here is a crappy bot beating a good bot
(https://gametechmods.com/uploads/images/43191lolio.jpg)
it has lots of castor armor
-
(https://gametechmods.com/uploads/images/98263sandimgmachihs.jpg)
a little hs mw that kind of also is a slow rammer, does pretty well
-
Sweet. You might want to put the weapon rack a bit more forward, though. :D
-
bot (http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=oRFMSwULWjE#) vid of it
so its main weekness is speed...
-
Thats a pretty good bot there.
But kinda weird music choise, because I remember when I was trying out Ustream and you were watcing, you said you didnt like techo/trance because its ghey.
-
it was all I had left with 3 other songs because my friend stole all my music... =(( basically he took all my music and gave me a few of his ugly music I also had to fastforward it so wmg would eat it
-
I like it. :D Actually, it sounds kinda like one of those nitrome games.
-
meh techno is a bit too techish and repeatative for me... but it was either death metal or this, and I chose this. So ya
-
What's wrong with death metal? :(
-
407528949832794875290012983: Im sorry, screaming is slightly unpleasant to me.
hehe sicknessss,....
I wont tell anyone the name yet or show the rest of it, because it deserves a splash. Here is a preview
(https://gametechmods.com/uploads/images/10394hehehesecret.jpg)
-
That's a pretty badass looking FS there.
-
I'll wait for the actual splash to critique...
-
Not enough weapons IMO.
-
Those wedges are very nicely skinned.
-

out wedges boon 7 and clickbeetle like everytime, and Spite every 1/5
just an experiment bot...
-
Lawl I like it. Is it a flipper or a popup?
-
Definitely a flipper.
-
neither yet, just an experiment. It will be a popup and a flipper though.
-
Cool idea, Duck. I've never even thought of doing something like that.
-
Out wedges Spite nearly everytime, along with drumble bee, 321BO, clickbeetle, alien predator, FRHOWNED, boon7... the list goes on. It can out wedge NWB and Express Delivery 1/3, the other two get real awkward and twisty. It also outwedges RPD but nearly ever wins.
(http://img412.imageshack.us/img412/8430/yesssssssu.jpg)
ohh and screw you people that are gonna tell me not to use emergency wedges!
-
How does it outwedge so many bots?
-
it uses emergency wedges =D
btw: no n00b driving at all.
-
Insides?
-
Shadow Tyrant has excellent wedges even if it uses E-wedges. It's in the weight distro. :P
-
(http://img535.imageshack.us/img535/7424/frantic.jpg)
:bigsmile:
-
What happened to that FS you were gonna show us?
-
I need to make the wedges better, because that really blew it for the bot.
-
Does the old tribar on a RAD do much?
-
to tell you the truth, no. Just had spare weight, but maybe I should use it for more irons on the discs.
-
Do something to make it better against HS. You have no HS battle shots :)
-
I see Tempest Exterminator in there, that's an HS hybrid at least. More irons on the discs would definitely be a good idea.
-
+ maelstrom
I will see what I can do.
-
+ maelstrom
*takes a closer look at the splash* Oh there it is.
*sees inside shot* Wait that bot isn't 4WD? I thought it was. Definitely try to get 4WD on there. 4WD is almost as good on small-diameter VS's as it is on popups.
*looks again at splash* Heeeey wait a minute, why do you have a battleshot of you beating Click Beetle in the Combat Arena? :mad:
-
Yes it really needs Four wheel drive. Maybe I have to make a bigger chassis
Clickbeetle has a great wedge, just showing it could beat it. A lot of my two wedge bots struggle with it and boon 7. And yes I am aware they are MW. :laughing
BTW: I believe this bot has potential, could anyone give advice? Because it sucks besides the good wedges.
4 stacked bats, 6 wheel drive.
(https://gametechmods.com/uploads/images/17862screenshot_2.jpg)
-
Maybe if we knew the weight?
And that's an interesting way to do 6WD... Cool.
It would probably work better as a popup of some sort. Those hammers don't look effective at all. Besides that it's an odd configuration so it's hard to do much differently than you already planned.
-
It was supposed to be a popup, but the frontal armor i so awkward, I thought those would work better. weight - 793.something.
-
I would suggest blue snappers and eFFe the drive on so its not taking up chassis size
also the casters dont do much
-
Lets just say I were to keep the drive setup. I may take the castors out. They are ballasts though, so they are there for that and a little armor.
-
LOL at the wheel placement
-
Heh, didn't notice that. Interesting...
-
Very cool way to do 6WD. How well does it steer with that setup?
You're thinking outside the box, I like it.
-
Drives straight, left and right turns equal, no disadvantages.
-
durr

haha the thing sensored the url gahh
edit there: (https://gametechmods.com/uploads/images/534shiiiitbot.PNG)
-
FUUUU
-
That's unfortunate.
-
FUUUU
:trollface
Despite the wtf weapon setup, it does have quite a nice vibe to it. Probably because everything's on a piston.
-
I was pretty pissed, the black bats decided it would be funny to be a pain in the ass and not let me stack em. Prob cause i was running on low resolution....
millions of stacked pinks FTW! + an axel with 2 razors and an extender to protect the butt, and in some lucky case if needed elsewhere.
-
oh god wtf is this
-
Obviously your nightmare, as well as one of my crazy creations!
-
Obviously your nightmare, as well as one of my crazy creations!
It's just the messiest bot I have ever seen since one year at least. :P
-
hey hey, it is the first one I have bulit in a while.
Mes bots sont tres amusante...c'est mon opinion...
-
This is so wtf but kinda cool too, if just because it has such a weird setup.
-
wtf is that.
but, it just looks so cool.
-
That looks really funny, but is it actually good at battle?
-
From the top, it looks like a bull's head. From any other angle, it looks like a dischordant mess. I reckon you could turn that into a decently capable bot if you wanted to. =)
-
Its a combination Juggler/HS/"Anti-Sage" bot.
.....Incredible.
-
I'm worried emergency might beat it, so I don't think I should test it at all!
-
