I forfeit on account that my bots are complete idiots. They seem to run away from enemies while being fired upon, deciding it's best to hide and not even try to fight back. They also believe that hiding in a corner facing it is the best defense.

Even the people who are giving this positive criticism... THIS IS THE THIRD GAME IN THE SERIES. To the developer... Keep trying.

Tch, cant control this. Someone in the comments claims you can. But all I get is crazed random movements. Often times moving in the wrong direction.

Developer, nice outline for possibly a good game, instructions are very vague and the description has something to be desired, challenge lies with figuring out the game play, not with playing this one. Controls? Gamers enjoy controlling their own battle(s), at least this way if we lose in battle(s), it is our own faults. Mr. Bot there should have a ''lot'' more know-how before going into battle, perhaps the robot was nipping on the General's booze before battle! My advise: read commits and make necessary changes, others have also brought up great ideas, for myself, I did not think it was worth my time (not as it is), change these and I will definitely return with a higher rating. To be fair, 3/5 (room for improvement). -Marz

We can only hope that BotArena4 allows better control of your bots, because all of the promise of a good game is there, it's just failing in its execution.

That awkward moment in challenge 3 when you thought you were controlling the other team and thought you won *facepalm*

The player character has to be way stronger than any one opponent, as the AI is awful, and as usual, all the enemy AI attacks you, instead of fighting amongst themselves. They must really hate the player.

Story mode is fun, challenge mode WOULD be fun if controls were up to the task. They're not, too bad could have been a good game.

challenge 4 is so frustrating instead of my "sword" being even the slightest of useful the only thing it does is commit suicide by running into the dragon and half the time my shield will just wander around aimlessly until my sword dies and then for some reason it all of a sudden decides its time to spring into action and actually act like its a shield...SHIELD Y U DO DIS!?!?!?!?!

Is it just me or do my bots go like Forget you and run off while the enemy bots are like Come here and fight me and keep shooting at my bots.

Challenge 4:Usually getting as close to max weight generally means best efficiency; I do this by placing priority on weapons before shielding, since you can always control to make up for less shielding, whereas not having enough firepower to kill the other guy means more time for you to make a mistake with your control. Also: don't do 3 bots. Ever. 2 bot system is the best :)

I just hate "Sword" bot! I had to play fkng 2 hours to get rid of a simple dragon! but sincerely the worst thing in this game: there is no "restart" buttom! how annoying can this be? But beside that, i'm truly satisfied with this achiev, and now i can lay down my head and sleep peacefully

Challenge 4: The greatest developpers have always understood that good control is equally important as artificial intelligence, and that one is useless without the other. Make your game by maintaining this balance.

Because everybody wants to read forty(!) pages of instructions before playing a game! For bonus marks, the controls are terrible. "You, robot, follow that other robot!" "Yes, sir! I will go to the point you just clicked" "I said follow that other robot!" "But you missed him by two pixels, sir, so I'll just go to that place next to where he was standing when you clicked."

Honestly in the beginning I was thinking this game is amazing. Not anymore after the 4th challenge. My robots just go in corners and makeout with the wall while the oppenent is killing them! Upgrades don't really do anything at this point. The AI is horrible! 3/5 until the controls get fixed.

You`d think that a bot named Sword would be more durable than a few shots.. but no... Kong, why can`t you just EXEMPT challenge 4 from this badge.. please..

The best way to complete challenge 4 is this: Get Shield to follow Dragon and watch Sword carefully. As Dragon cannot fire at bots that are very close to it, simply move Sword away when shield gets too close.
