Post here when you get to T10 and we'll see about teaming up for some games.
I'll take you up on that as well, looking forward to your builds. ^^

The, rare, infamous clutterbug, as i like to call it. Basically when the team spawned we all spawned on exactly the same spot. Hilarity ensues.

BOOOOSH!! At least Papi got some hugs out of it.^^
Oh yeah, that old issue. It was awesome the first time it happened to me. We all went flying after the countdown.

Hey, what does everyone think of the new update?

I take the good with the bad, personally; I can't wait until the game stabilizes and Classic mode will have more players in it.

I've been playing a lot of League lately, so I haven't put much time into Robocraft. But from the couple games I did do with the new format, I think it's alright, but I think it'll be a lot better in about a month or so. Game just feels kinda soulless. It needs more meat. More personality.

Back to League of Legends? You poor soul. Is it still troll hell? Nearly every character I liked seems to have been nerfed, and they ditched dominion, my favorite map. (Heroes of the Storm forever!) Man, even Smite had better behaved players..

Very, very nice! The face is really well-designed; the way you made the yellow top is just brilliant. Very economical at 500,000 too... makes me want to try an art build myself.

Thanks^^. The cost is probably a bit higher, since i couldn't be bothered to count the armor cubes and just guessed the amount. Most of the cubes are slightly under-tiered as well, and the handling is frickin atrocious (lotsa cubes + few, akwardly placed wheels = vehicular diarhea), so it's not too viable in battle.

In my experience the hardest part of making artbots is getting the proportions/scale right, since you're often focussing on smaller details and connections, it's easier to lose sight of the big picture. The sheer RP cost is quite inconvenient as well. (especially if you only earn 8000 per match on average -_-")

Thanks^^, i'm quite proud of it. I want to see how far i can get into the Monmusu cast with what i have now, can't decide on who to build next....any requests? I can only use up to T8 components, so no Rachnee for now.....or manako.......or Lala.....or ms. Smith. :/

8000 a match? I get at least 100,000... but then, I do have Premium.

Also, new update out that makes the new mode less garbage! It's far more balanced now, since afks and disconnects don't spell immediate defeat. I like it!

Though i have to admit it was a pretty desperate last-second attempt, decided to just trow on everyting i had left. I'll stick to T9 for now, just grinding away for more armor blocks. :work:

Those are Plasma Cannons.


There's something you should look into BR. I think only 6 Plasma Cannons can fire at one time. So while having more will be nice if you lose any, you can still only fire 6 at a time.

... Is it just me, or do people in T10 not understand the benefits of rushing? I know towers are important, but the team I'm with loses most often because they're unwilling to attack the enemy when their shield isn't down.

Maybe I'm the misinformed one here?

I know, i was just scraping together as much robot ranking as i could.^^ The bot itself is back to normal now. I also took down my Papi build, it was time for her to go, really. With the overclocking and all she just couldn't stand up against SMG's anymore. :/
