Nooooooooooooooooooooooooooooo replies. (awkward)

Anyway, I fixed up two of the bots.
First, I received some negativity about this popup, so I changed it. It now has blades.

Then, I rebuilt Unquenchable 2. It now looks like Rigadoon, but not as exposed. (again, I don't want my bots to look like other bots.)
 Sorry, I forgot to take a screenshot of it, but it's in the AI pack.

Why would we reply to two posts of you talking to yourself, though?

More bots...
Generic LW dual HS with DSA.
 
screenshot_59.bmp


MW face spinner. Surprisingly good against HS due to the sheer amount of protection it has. DSA armor.
 
screenshot_60.bmp


An OLD bot, but a good bot- Countdown. LOTS of irons, castor armor, 2 supervolts, DSA.
 
screenshot_61.bmp


a very powerful BW popup with 4 razors on a DDT. Plastic armor is a problem, though.
 
screenshot_62.bmp
 
screenshot_63.bmp


a MW poker. Generic but pretty deadly.
 
screenshot_64.bmp


...That concludes all bots in the first AI pack!

Separate post because all these bots will appear in the next version.

a VS called KILL-60. It doesn't use a SPIN control to power the spinners, but rather has a FIRE control to activate them, along with a huge smartzone that triggers them. You don't see the smartzone in this screenshot.
 
screenshot_71.bmp


Next, generic LW mace HS. DSA armor.
 
screenshot_74.bmp


POWERFUL MW HS with RADs, snowplow, and drive all on a snapper. I used a lot of EEFE glitching to build this bot, and it gave me a headache.
 
screenshot_75.bmp


another HW VS. well-defended, but it has plastic armor.2 supervolts.
 
screenshot_76.bmp


VERY cool 36 HS. Name's Transistor, because it amplifies damage just like how transistor circuits amplify current. DSA, 2 supervolts, all motors are HP zteks.

Am I the only one that notices just how similar these two bots look?

Philippa's Gone Fishing HS has so many identical characteristics of Transistor, but I'm glad there's still a difference between them (Gone Fishing weighs 796kg. and Transistor weighs 799kg. Also, different ztek placements and chassis styles.) or else this would be copying.

Or maybe it's because stock robots vary little from one another. Also, those two robots look nothing alike just because they are 36HS. That's like saying Apollo looks like Eruption.

Ugh, I hope the following doesn't count as backseat moderating/flaming, as I'm just making a point.
CNGH I don't get your point, this isn't just a "oh, it's just all stock bots look alike" sorta thing, Transistor is a blatant rip-off of Pip's bot.
Redalert, you might as well put a nail in your own coffin for drawing the comparison between the two bots. It's pretty sneaky considering you PM'ed Pip asking her to get the .bot file so that way you could ONLY fight against it, you didn't ask her if you could copy it and completely rip it off.
This reminds me of when LRA2 stole SurgicalStrike and reskinned it as his own entry in his tourney Terror Twisters.

It's still pretty two-faced considering Redalert stole your bot and used it for another purpose instead of what he originally said  :ermm:

No, I BUILT Transistor from scratch. I just wanted to fight Gone Fishing. If I copied it, I would tell you.

This proves you know nothing about me, my personality, or my respect for bot designs and members.

rip-off

First-What IS a "rip-off?"

Second- It would be plain stupid to copy someone's bot. Philippa built Gone Fishing. I respect it. Starcore built T-800 Terminator. I respect it. Spawngeek built the ever-popular Little Darling. I respect it. A bot built by someone is the same as "trade marking."

Third- look closely- Transistor's chassis is slightly bigger. You'd have to delete all components to resize the chassis, and I do not use Bot File Editing at all.

Fourth- this has happened a lot. For instance- Kill343gs' "my Playstation Gone Wild" and "Breakout" are relatively similar. Were they copying each other? No.

What happened was I built Transistor, and then a few days later, I saw Pip's Gone Fishing HS and the first thing that came to my head was "Wow! these bots look alike." It was AFTER I built Transistor that I asked for Pip's bot. Proof right there.

 Fifth- Also, let's not go into depth on the factor that these two look alike. This isn't a flame showcase.

case closed.

Okay. Before this turns into a riot, let's switch the topic.
I did some fights with my AI pack, and came up with some exotic fights.

First- AI against AI. this was a test. Remix (dual HS) vs. Tempest Mini (LW Face Spinner.)
 
Tempest Mini vs. Remix.bmp


Next, the rather unusual (and funny) victories.
First, I managed to flip Tempest Mini over, and perfectly center it so it had no traction with my best LW popup, Eject!
 
Eject! vs. Tempest Mini.bmp


Clickbeetle's Ant Army actually beat SHW-NEW BEGINNING via hit points. Since both bots were nearly impossible to damage, it was mostly about points.
Funny fact, SHW-NEW BEGINNING deliberately FLATTENED 1 of Ant Army's bots as well as Emerald Pain Wedge, whild Ant Army disabled Fe\/er. Ant Army also broke both hammers on NEW BEGINNING, so it was a pushing match for the most points.
Emerald Pain Wedge vs. Ant Army vs Fever vs. SHW-NEW BEGINNING.bmp

Ant Army won 9,076 to 6,023 (NEW BEGINNING) because it managed to get both remaining multibots under NEW BEGINNING's (castor armored) underside, where they racked up many points, but didn't do any damage.

Rebooted JACKPOT! and made it a weird popup/hammer hybrid. Only good against HS. Delivers decent damage, but when it comes to popups, uh oh...
 
JACKPOT! rebooted.bmp
 
JACKPOT! vs. MiniBerg.bmp

not very good, but fun to build.
