Thanks, I appreciate the compliment. I do agree that the hammer is very sloppy. I will rebuild it with a nifty to see if that makes it any better.

Yup. And try to use 4kg that you have left on the sidehammer to give the arms a more arc-y/wrap-y shape.

Gazea2 · « **Reply #742 on:** August 30, 2011, 01:30:15 PM »

Ok, I'll do that.

Update on the hammer. Still not too happy with it, but at least it works (sort of)...

Can self right 60% of the time. 4 razors, 247.2. Slightly unstable when turning.

2 new bots:

I'm soooo happy with this one! It havoked at first but after a re-build, it doesn't. Pretty awesome I think.

The idea with this one was to have a large-ish chassis for more hp+ gaps in the wedge so that you don't get hit as much by HS. It works about 60% of the time and can get 2HKOs on Fury (SCV4). 5 Razors.

Both have DSA.

I wonder if this might work better as a True Popup. But you're actually giving HS two targets to his instead of one, because they more than often hit the corners. If you're wanting to stick with it, then move the casters so they stick out the outside edge.

infiniteinertia · « **Reply #746 on:** September 01, 2011, 07:49:07 AM »

Come on now...that is a terrible popup...and everything else is damn ugly. It's a mixture of sloppiness and your gay component textures.

Gazea2 · « **Reply #747 on:** September 01, 2011, 08:05:07 AM »

Ok, I agree the popup isn't, well... GOOD but it was just an idea I had. When you say "everything else is damn ugly", which bots do you exactly mean? And, yes, my building is sloppy and I have already seen that you don't like my textures so, if you haven't noticed, I have stopped using them. Now how come people are always hating on my skins and I don't get too many constructive comments, yet other people get loads of good comments and people aren't always hating every single bot that they make?

infiniteinertia · « **Reply #748 on:** September 01, 2011, 08:21:38 AM »

...because they're good...and their bots are not sloppy/ugly...? Maybe?

Gazea2 · « **Reply #749 on:** September 01, 2011, 08:22:54 AM »

Last time I checked, this showcase section was so that people could:
a) Show their good bots.
b) Improve as a builder.

...and my presence is so that B can actually occur.

smashysmashy · « **Reply #751 on:** September 01, 2011, 09:39:25 AM »

Gaz, Infinite has a point....

Gazea2 · « **Reply #752 on:** September 01, 2011, 09:45:44 AM »

I know he does but so do I.

smashysmashy · « **Reply #753 on:** September 01, 2011, 09:47:34 AM »

But his makes more sense.

infiniteinertia · « **Reply #754 on:** September 01, 2011, 09:52:00 AM »

Yah, your's makes so sense Gazea. They are your best bots? So what? They are still ugly and sloppy...which is where B comes into play.

First one has lots and lots of extra weight, but if you want to keep the DSA and 15 weapons that's fine. However, you could definitely find a new chassis/extender setup that uses all the extra weight to get the motors protected by being (mostly) inside the chassis. Example: Intruder Alert in Starcore v4. Also, the inside irons should definitely be switched to maces, and the most outward ones could be either irons or maces, to fight popups and enemy HS, respectively.

The second one just has too much empty space. I think you can survive with either a shallow chassis wedge or caster armor, so choose one and stick with it. As for the setup, maybe you could put the black behind the DDT (although you'd need some extra chassis points to make room) and have the chassis wedge narrower; just enough for the Snapper2s. Alternatively the Snapper2s could be placed farther back or beside the DDT while the chassis wedge is made into a triangle shape rather than a rectangle.

Good advice Fracture. But stop crying, those are already completely generic designs.

Avalanche · « **Reply #757 on:** September 01, 2011, 11:55:40 AM »

Inf, this is a showcase.People make bots to show.Simple.And they can build the damn way they bloody like.Oh hi thar thyrus.
If he likes to buil-nah, if ANYONE decides to build even ONE bot different to your way you start flaming on them.Just accept the fact some people like to build different ways to you and your "perfection".And why the

do i not see you flameing clickbeetle(Ice Pheonix)
Thyrus(Pretty much every bot hes made) and infact EVERY PERSON WHO ENTERED BLADES OF FURY.So gaz can do what he likes with his bots.

G.K. · « **Reply #758 on:** September 01, 2011, 12:08:49 PM »

Avalanche are you seriously THAT dumb

Sage · « **Reply #759 on:** September 01, 2011, 12:12:02 PM »

Avalanche, Gaz JUST SAID he wanted help becoming a better builder. You are trying to say he doesn't give a crap what people think of his bots, which is completely untrue.

Inf doesn't UNLEASH TEH FLAMEZ on any bot he doesn't like, he just say's they are ugly or sloppy, which is true but everyone else is afraid to tell them because they are "nice" and stuff. If Gaz, instead of a paragraph arguing with him, would ask: "What makes my bots sloppy, and how can I fix it?" then Inf would glady help you out.
