Author Topic: Robot Arena 2 - It's only slow if all the robots have a Havok explosion  (Read 14915 times)

This game was pretty fun up until I found out that the best design was a box with four tires, and two motors with spinning death spikes. After that I lost all will to make any other type of bot, when my top bot would just destroy any other robot in five seconds.

Also from what I recall the online mode was pretty bad, horrible lag and what not.


Also, I thought I might let you guys know that this is basically abandonware now. All support towards the game has been dropped since the end of '03.

Yeah I wouldn't post it here regardless, unless officially stated/distributed as freeware by the developer/publisher it's not freeware.

i have this
EMERGENCY is a richard
The best way to beat him is a slim robot with a lot of pistons on the front, it takes everything off the front of him.

I'm experimenting with designs now.

Sabertooth is about the hardest middleweight to destroy.




Bump because I'm hosting

Update to your latest drivers, that normally fixes it.
This game is loving awesome. But I hate EMERGENCY so loving much.
Anyone here wanna play online? o:

I updated, no dice.

Oh, and get an axe and break EMERGENCY's flippers off and proceed to mutilate him.

That wasn't the bot that I found online was it? I can't remember playing with you, but I know I downloaded a bot like that and easily beat my offline friend while showing it off.

We should make a bot for BBEANS.
Should we us a vertical spinner, or exploit some glitches.  I have DSL installed, so we have more part options.
Also give me a weight class

I'm not sure, I think at one point we tried to play but the lag was too bad.

I do know that one of the "ultimate" designs was similar to the bot that I made, but I believe it was actually better somehow.
