I'm surprised on how fast everyone is going by :( I am so close to tier 3! I am tier 2 :(

I love this game and it's nice to see the devs constantly working on it, but we badly need to be allowed full parties. Even if you have a crew of four right now, you can still end up with a couple leavers or a couple junk bots. Speaking of which.

Junk bots: Grinding my gears so hard
Why in the actual fuck do some people not test their bots before starting a match? You'd think they'd have learned that by the time they reach tier 10 that they should make sure the shit actually moves before they take it into a game. But no, they spawn in and just sit their immobile, then they leave giving their team a huge disadvantage.
Also why do so many people just build a hover stick with TX1 smg's on it and think it will be any good? When I see shit with two hover blades and made out of maybe 30 t4 armor cubes, what are they even thinking? One stray shot and their bot gets ripped in half and even if they spend all game inside our shields afraid of getting hit, they're holding the team back immensely. They might as well be leavers, because they're useless.

Just more reason to allow us full parties, because when it's all friends you can communicate whom will be doing what before you even get into the match. Much less chance of someone leaving or bringing a junk bot into the game. Will this give more competitive players an edge over casual shitheads? Yeah, but competitive players should have an edge of those people. If they want the game to be competitive.

Could use some input here guys. In case you're wondering what happened to my vortex concept from earlier, this is what I evolved it into.


You can see the speedometer on the left side of these next screen shots.



It's an assassin bot, meant to be a highly mobile ambush fighter, which it pulls off well with its three radar jammers and being able to jump at 300 mph. But it's surprisingly resilient, the pilot seat is underneath t10-7 electro plates, which are underneath t10-9 electro plates, which are underneath a layer of t10 armor, which is underneath t10-4 electro plates. Inside my shield or with a medic I'm extremely hard to kill and have defeated teams.

What do you guys think? It look cool yeah?

At Jutsu's request:



But for real, that's badass as heck. Is all the carbon stronger than regular armor, or is it just purty?

It's just purty and more than twice as expensive.

You can compare it to a shiny pokemon, no statistical difference. Just a different look.

You guys play a lot, don't you? Still T5 and losing! Ha. Haha. Help me

what's with that lettering? is that a new thing?

Yeah it's the new carbon 6 armor that was recently released.

It's about 25k per block.

It's identical to t10 armor in every way statistically, so I only recommend using it on bots that you're proud of.

The letters themselves are limited to "carbon" so you can have a robot named "bacon" if you like.

No much, just farming. I sold my bot a few times (Oh stupid me) and now I'm horribly under...farmed?

Yeah that's a big no no.

Make sure you always have at least one good bot.

Yeah I have a decent one, it's just very.... limited to what it can do and it doesn't supply me with tons of space for weapons. Moreover it lacks defense. I get one-shot'd lots.

redesigned my bot a bit for the t10 plates i finally unlocked. it still isn't perfect... i'm looking forward to having other t10 plates to work with in the near future, but for now, i'm happy with this.



it can hit 250mph pretty easily, and is hella maneuverable.

my main issues with it are that it can flip, or even try to take off, without careful management of speed, and it's a fair bit more fragile than it looks. i've tried using a rudder but it had too much impact on my steering at these speeds. so, i'll just stick with hit and run tactics, i've got the mobility for it. it's also in dire need of some armor to protect the back part of it, but i can add to that over time if i gain a couple levels. front section's also vulnerable to air attacks.

it would be nice to have more cannons, also, but i just haven't got the flops for that.
