Post by: Stagfish on July 10, 2010, 04:54:09 AM

It's finally here!

Brackets

Updates:
Brackets are up!
                                                           
CharFireCoal has just looked at the splash and said
"My bot is fail compaired to the other bots, I'd like
to quit because I dont want to deal with people calling
my bot crap" so her bot has been swapped for a bye.

Seriously? putting the 2 best teams together in round 1 = WIN :P

and as long as NFX goes for Green Wave first I think we have a chance.

nice spoiler tagging

you still have half of round 1 and your doing round 2..

send me GK's robot, Im pretty sure there is nothing wrong with it as I said before

Edit and the Bindings

Title: Re: ROBONOVA 2 splash, Brackets and videos!
Post by: The Ounce on July 10, 2010, 10:14:59 AM

Wow, not even invincible armor could stop the paramecium.  I think we have a shot at this.

Ultimate Showdown=win

Predictions for the remaining round 1 fights:

Il Neige and Il Pleut Beaucoup over Blood Raven and Fake Flipper - Although one of them might be able to take out the popup, things won't go well when you add the HS into the equation.

Green Wave and Brain Washer 2 over Blizzard and Arcade - The teams are very similar, but one of the HSs uses maces, which will be able to take out the other HS if the popups are put out of commission.

Title: Re: ROBONOVA 2 splash, Brackets and videos!
Post by: NFX on July 10, 2010, 10:20:11 AM

There's three teams of Popup/HS here. The brackets seem quite good, I think.

And why does GK's bot need smartzones removed? If you're having trouble with it, you could just do the other match while it's getting sorted. It doesn't exactly change anything.

Title: Re: ROBONOVA 2 splash, Brackets and videos!
Post by: JoeBlo on July 10, 2010, 10:27:38 AM

there is nothing wrong with the smartzone

its HPZ-tek drives were different text files ?

the normal text is

Components/Styles/ztek2.txt

but his were

Components/HPZ1.txt

have no idea why but I quick BFE swap and its fine now

Post by: Stagfish on July 10, 2010, 04:12:36 PM

I must say the ByeBot did some PWNAGE in the first round, I Ai'ed it with "Boxrush"

Title: Re: ROBONOVA 2 splash, Brackets and videos!
Post by: Trovaner on July 11, 2010, 12:59:51 PM

POP-sicle's strength "Hard for hammers to hit" made me laugh because there are none in this tournament. The ByeBOT turned out to be a decent contender after its partner threw TAC on top of him.

IMO, these were the two best teams in this tourney. To bad this wasn't the final match. It was a battle of good vs evil, a team of popups vs a team of HSers.

This was my favorite match, so far... The battle had several unexpected twists which usually made me laugh... On a side note, it looks like G.K. and S_M color coordinated themselves.

This one will be a good match... once it gets uploaded...

Predictable. The ByeBOT didn't stand a chance (especially after its battle axe got torn off).

Post by: Starcore on July 13, 2010, 01:41:08 AM

As a suggestion for recording the matches. I would say the scene changes are disconcerting and confusing especially when someone is about to die. Better to if possible keep the camera going and no cuts. Avoids feeling of things spliced together. Also good to recap who won at the end or let the game show which team won in the summary screen. Cutting so tight makes it hard to figure which team was the victor.
 
Just some suggestions,
 
Starcore

Instead of doing something that could be considered illegal, you could use the pause key every 25 seconds, turn off the recording, turn on the recording, and then resume the battle (then just merge the files like you have been).

Fakeflipper has no srimech and its weapon doesnt actually reach outside of the chassis. Brain washer uses a snapper2 (the green one) and it has lots of weapons on it, which means it cant selfright.

And stop demanding for matches, i'll do the final tommorow.
