A new contest I thought of, SHWH(Super Heavy Weight Havoc) shall consist of Super Heavy Weights.
Rules:
1: Do the AIing yourself please because I is sh** at AIing.
2: The battles will take place in the Robot Wars Arena
3: Your bot MUST weigh over 800 kilos
4: Stock, DSL and cheatbot2 are allowed. Custom compenents are OK as long as you send me the stuff.
5: 16 bots I am looking at.
6: If your bot has a havoc explosion the match will be restarted. On the 3rd time, they will be DQed.
7: Sorry no prize, just the sastisfaction that you are better than people.
1:MeltalikVyper(needs bot)
2:Naryar(needs bot)

Can you say "Lofty Expectations".
-
1- Are you sure you're gonna get 16 entrants?
2- "ZOMG i have a wheel in th pit! so unfair!1!1!one!"
3- SHW, logical.
4- That basically makes the thing unfair. Use either Stock or DSL.
5- Good luck
6- A non-havoking SHW?
7- LOL!
You're pretty much new for launching a contest like that, and ACAMS have a rule about tournaments, but actually i would like to enter if this happens.
-
Lofty Expactations... Is not what this is.
No one else has done this making it new.
-
Geon, you need to run this by ACAMS, first. Any serious tourneys are good, so thanks for the efforts. But you need to check with him for timing and such...
(Thanks SB) EDIT: Post your tourney thoughts here: https://gametechmods.com/forums/showthread.php?t=1053
BTW, you should also add an 'upper limit' to the bot weight.
-
1. Can you record them?
2. Do you have WinRar?
3. Are you any good at bot building?
4. Will you finish the tourney?
5. Did you post this idea on ACAMS's tournaments thread before you posted this?
6. Do you have DSL?
Important Questions
Edit: ACAMS said to post the ideas, not PM him.

+ infrespect for nary.

Heavy on the DO NOT PM.......I hate having to go read one.
A new contest I thought of, SHWH(Super Heavy Weight Havoc) shall consist of Super Heavy Weights.
Rules:
1: Do the AIing yourself please because I is sh** at AIing. (anybody hosting an AI tournament needs to know how to AI)
2: The battles will take place in the Robot Wars Arena (good choice)
3: Your bot MUST weigh over 800 kilos (bad choice)
4: Stock, DSL and cheatbot2 are allowed. Custom compenents are OK as long as you send me the stuff. (ONLY a dumbass would allow custom components, and then misspell it)
5: 16 bots I am looking at.
6: If your bot has a havoc explosion the match will be restarted. On the 3rd time, they will be DQed. (the very dumbest thing I ever heard of... next to the custom components)
7: Sorry no prize, just the sastisfaction that you are better than people.

Dude, prove you're at least somewhat competent first before you make yourself look any dumber. You realize that you just broke the only rule about tourneys we have, and about 8 other ones that just go without saying?

Important Questions

1: Yes with game cam
2:Yes
3: I'm OK at it
4: Most probably
5:No since I am only a newbie
6:Yes
And I think I know how to AI now
-
Showcase first.
-
I was going to film a video with gamecam on my SHW, Fliptastic and then use pictures via WMM(Windows Movie Maker) but the game crashed. Don't know why :/
-
Yes...
Nothing against you Geon - but you are a newbie here.
Making a tournament is serious business, i think you first need to get more RA2 experience. You know, it's some kind of weird for us seasoned builders to see a newbie that first post says "i'm making a tournament".
After being a regular member (in several months if you prove yourself worthy to us), you can start a tournament with ease.
Yeah, you should showcase your robots, too - and practice your AI/building skills.
And a SHW tournament is a real pain- but actually, i'll be glad to compete.
EDIT: get Fraps.
-
I am going to be posting in more topics now anyway.
I've got some better than average bots and was even going to make a pack but my sister is on the computuer most of the time and I had no time.
-
well i have been building some decent SHWs and i will enter with them of you definatley know how to AI cus i'm into building and skinning not AIing and i occasionally make components but there all ways crap,
in conclusion yes i'll enter if you AI for me ok Geoncide?
if u cant then i will have to ask DragonFire to AI my bot and he's already doing my ELBITE entries.
-
Instead of yelling at him, I'll just give advice. First, I would suggest a 2500KG weight limit, so no smart*** decides to enter the Hammer of Justice. Also, you just use DSL with no custom parts or Cheatbot2, otherwise you'd have an accurite representation of how good people are at modding, NOT bot building. You don't need a prize, a lot of tourneys don't. I've thought of a SHW tourney before, but never got around to it.
And just so everyone knows, SHWS DO NOT HAVOC. I've made like twenty and not a single one does. Ask Look at Venko's thread, he's the SHW expert. And calling Genocide a dumbass WILL NOT help. :x
-
I have had a havocing SHW before. It had 23 zephyr burst pistons and flew across the training ground.
Also a good idea for no HOJ.
I will not be entering the contest because I WILL get my butt kicked
-
SHW's do not havok? Smartest quote of the day.
Most Stock SHW's havok badly. I sent Borg Queen on top of the Parking Lot's scaffoldings with a havok on a battle with 3 Borg Queens and one of my SHW's.
Maybe you didn't build any havoking SHW, but since you're talking of Venko, I bet he had numerous havoks with his SHW's, and Big Chaos runs ONLY on a glitch.
The DSL only with 2500kg limit is a good idea.
-
Not to mention the amount of time it will take to film, upload bots, etc. I'll consider at least waiting until you get familiar with the forum a bit, so you don't get whacked by the other members (excluding ACAMS).
-
Dude, use Bold, not CAPS.
-
WHY and who needs to use boldnotCAPS?
I am already working on my bot, I either add extra machine guns or make a 2500 kg Atomic Desrupter weapon so it meets the SHW rule.

-
nice :D
-
Nice bot ACAMS;-);)
Sharp Point(aka the prince of havoc explosions) and fliptastic would not stand a chance against that guy.
-
Actually the one to watch out for would be this one....with the 2500 kg Atomic Desrupter weapon system.

But it is your call with custom components.
-
Got an example of what that thing can do?
-
We don't know if your bots are better than average until you show them so start a showcase.
-
I have a showcase, but the last time I put a bot in it your mama was changing your diaper! Custom weapons that kill instantly are so easy I refuse to waste any more of my time responding to that comment.

Glitchy stock bots havok, in DSL you have to build a robot to havok in order for it to do so. That's why I'm suggesting DSL-only-no-custom-components-besides-antibalast robots.
I'm all for this contest, I'll help you if you need it, Gen. But be warned, if Duh102 enters, he will pwn all of us :neutral:

Acams: Genocide.

Mad should just enter ATOM. It says nothing about no AAM or advanced AI lines.

Yes, I did mean Geo
