Challenges 4 and 6 would be possible, if I had two mouse cursors and two brains to operate both bots simultaneously (I already have 2nd mouse).

It's just so much fun to lose a battle because your robots spend the first half of it running into walls, then when they finally get near the enemy bot, they miss every single shot. Good game concept, but the AI turns it into absolutely infuriating crap.

FFFFFFFFFUUUUUUUUUUU~~
challenge 4 brought out everything i hate in the game into one match.
1. no quit button
2. no manual control
3. bots wander after -said command is over- killing them selves
4. no stay command
5. bots randomly get stuck against wall unable to get move while getting kill.
Another dislike was very small weight limit (only able to have 2 max bots at best)
what was good.
1. wide range of weapons and bots
2. being able to mute repetitive music
3. improvement over last game (AI etc.)

Quote from Sabre of the Skirmesh Team: "i'd like to make an official complaint. er.. i mean no disrespect to the management.. but how can we go against the same team 15 times in a row?? Everytime suffering a humilating defeat. 13 out of those 15 matches we didnt even wanna fight! But they took us down, took our money, and left us there.. it was like being mugged! Rapier hasn't been the same since he was trapped in the corner amongst the dead bodies of his companions.. Oh my God! Here they come again! I cant even control myself! I want to go left but i keep going right.. I just shot Rapier! Why do all my commands keep getting ignored?! its like some sick joke! sAve mE peas..ARgH.. WHY GOD WHY!!" *I got bored with this comment, and annoyed at the controls in this game >.>*

This game could be so much better with a somewhat working AI. Why don't they try to stay at a distance with distance weapons? No, they run right next to the opponents or chill in the corner. Without any AI it would be less annoying.

anyone having problems with mount button not getting active?
i still have enough weight on my robot, but cant mount anything.

For folks looking for improvements, look at the publishing date of this game. If he hasn't made them in the past four years, he's probably not going to. Rate up to keep morons in check.

I don't see how you can win challenge 4. It doesn't matter if the shield is near dragon or not, but when soldier comes near enough dragon starts firing immediately it and forgets shield...

I was playing challenge 7 - hammertime and the tanks blew up in a specific formation where my last bot and the enemys last bot were stuck with no health bar left but both still alive....

This game looked like a good game. Then I played it. So many problems here, I don't even know where to start. If only one could assign buttons to the bots, so you could just press like a for the first bot, and then press where/what you want them to go to.

LOL, on the 7th Challenge, one of the opponents bots got itself completely stuck in the corner with some other dead bots, and now my bot cant kill him since hes low on health..... D:

This is one of those rare games where it's impossible to believe that the people who made it ever tried to actually play it. It should have been titled "Wandering Robots."

This could be a great game, but bot controls stink. In addition to the controls blowing, the AI that controls the player's bots seems to be infinitely more stupid than the AI controlling the computer's bots.
So all things being equal, you will lose 95% of the time.

yay challenge 4 was annonyng until i made this: before start made sword follow shield and then control shield and follow the enemy but no too close because bot weapon dont have close atack and ll start to atack your sword.

I think you should be able to assign the bots to hotkeys for easier control, and use wasd and arrow keys (two bots at a time) for better control. I don't mind harder difficulties if I get better control.

I think there should be a "speed" factor, so some bots are faster than others, and the weight would bring the speed down.

I could have done Challenge 4 if it wasn't for the stuffed up AI. For some reason, I command it to go somewhere, it goes there THEN immediately goes into wander. So annoying.

Final Hour is easy. Use cerberus + (19 weight I think armor?), then a 15 weight armor or one less + a pulse I think it was...or if any extra weight put cerberus. Then just gang on the scream shard, then cer. Easy.
