I used to do nothing but play this game a couple years back and I can still say I enjoy it now. This is by far my favorite game.

Need to remove the weight restriction or make it higher, I spend all my time into developing the perfect robot for the job to find it can't enter due to it being a brick.

whats the point of getting the last chassis? i looked over its stats and even though it can carry 6 more than the 2nd last its self-weight is 7 more. this means you actually carry 1 less weight and that you cant use as many of it because it fills weight limit. only use 2nd last (electron i think)

Adding in the Distractions challenge was basically saying "look at how bad the control system is, get frustrated and rate the game lower than it deserves".

Good game but needs improving.
Suggestions for evolution :
Buy computers for bots with more and more evaluated scripts :
- level 1 script : bump into enemy, stay at weapon max (or min) rang from enemy...
- level 2 script : block enemy (ability to use walls), fire at same target as friendly...
- level 3 script : target most damaged, most powerful, less armored enemy...
Create weak radiating weapon that attacks and make around enemies target the bot.
How about a repulsive weapon ?
With the ability to create diverting and blocking bots, the player would be able to create real tactics.
Keep up the good work !

Challenge 4 is certainly the most annoying one but I've managed to do it quite quckly by setting the shield to follow the dragon and than attacking with sword from afar only when dragon is attacking the shield. It's not perfect and the biggest problem is dragon's range, cause the shield has to be quite far off, but with a few tries it should work.

absolutely atrocious game. if you are making a 4th one, please make it not suck this bad. being able to actually..control your robots would certainly be an idea.

How to beat challenge 4: Let the sword follow the shield and your suppose to control the shield. Dont let the dragon hit the sword lead the shield away when the dragon is near it. When the shield died, control your sword around and around on the shield to distarct the dragon. Good luck.

challenge 4 is just retarded... why the feck is the shield wandering off while the sword goes straight to the opponent. goddamn that challenge is enraging.

I find the fourth challenge to be the hardest. The knight and the dragon have equal ranges, and will attack each other. But the shield comes in play. However, the guns have limited range, so if the shield gets too close, then the dragon starts attacking the knight. Which, of course, throws the whole point of the challenge off a cliff.

Why not just make a bot follow a target? Just click on one of your bots, and drag your cursor to the target you want. You need to hold the cursor.

I love it when my Healer pins my Attacker against the wall, because when my Healer gets raped in the arse while the Attacker shoots blindly into the Healer.

a stop command would be nice to make your robots stop moving around....is the only reason there isn't one because it would be too convenient?

ok my advice 4 the two hardest challenges? challenge 2 its all about dodging the hammers 4 long enough and the strategy that i used was go round in a circle (either way) but turn many times as u go around the circle (10 or more) if u do it right they wont catch up to u. and challenge 4: tell the shield to follow ur opponent and control the sword only shooting at the enemy when it is occupied shooting the shield. i hope that make the hard badge a bit easier =) rate up so people can c this =)

challenge 2 is imposible!!! i tried 2384290 times and no won!!! this need a quit button if you lose for example on challenge 4 if you r destroyed and your shield is still alive you want to quit!!!

Whenever I click on a new upgrade for my bots the light flashes. I think it's going to give me a dang seizure soon so I'm probs gonna look away.

tips for challenge 6: stick the soldier to the opponent (commander) and control the medic (heal, run away, heal, run away, heal...)

lol wasted 2 hours in challenge 4 but nothing XDD really u need a loooooooottttt of luck from part of the shield and the dragon XDDD 4/5 luck factor make me sad
Under rating threshold (hideshow)
The problem with Challenge 4 is that the bots default AI is to shoot at whatever target is closest to it. Which is fine, except the gun the bots have can't shoot anything melee range. So as soon as your shield gets right next to the bot, the dragon starts killing the sword. Meaning the only option is to constantly micro-manage the shield to stay at the right distance, and the sword to stay further than that.

no controls WTF!? this game is just luck and garbage oh my god i was excited at first making my own battle bot and then this is all it is.. UFGHT#QAEV

The game is nice, should have some more control in game, like the way bots act (defensive, offensive, short or long distance and so on...)
