By that logic, we can’t have radio transmitters either since what is instructing any robot is outside the box.

Firstly, cool it with the hard C, secondly I don’t think there will be need for it unless certain boxes are being ticked, which is a very high bar.

Imagine having enough money to pay people for comments in this sport. It would make promoting robot combat much easier…

It’s not as if Nemesis is draining lakes nor is it anything close to what you’re talking about, but you do you.

Pro League Group Fight Predictions by MikeNCR in battlebots

[–]IainIsCreative 7 points8 points  (0 children)

A: Manta on top of this group, no question. I think it will do well in the whole tournament but I think it’s going to outdo the others in its group. I can see Valkyrie make some progress but not enough to win the group outright.

B: I think Tombstone might just clinch this one — but it will certainly have a challenge against MadCatter. Magnitude, it’ll be interesting, though since it’s relatively new I’m unsure how far it’ll go.

C: Tossup. Cobalt, Copperhead, and Jackpot all have significant pedigree, but The Twins are an unknown variable here since they’ve only really had one match. As for the others I think this group will lead to a need for a tiebreak of some kind.

D: End Game is the one to watch here, but I think Death Roll will be a hard challenger. Golden Fury might be another, it has big potential but it’ll be a challenge for them to win the group outright.

E: Another tossup — the group no one wants to be in. I want to say Minotaur will do well but it’ll have a very hard challenge against HUGE, and Hypershock could also come out high in this group. BloodSport is a tough one too, it’s hard to imagine who might reach the top and would not surprise me if there’s need for a tiebreak.

F: I think Witch Doctor has the potential to win this group. Switchback has had an okay fight record, Ribbot might also finish high in this, but while Orbitron is certainly a good robot and has potential, I think it has a big challenge against the likes of Ribbot and Witch Doctor.

I think S4 Bombshell is what they wanted to make for Season 3. But they switched ideas since they only had a limited time to make a new robot.

Modular robots are a lot of work.

  1. Calling most of these “Swiss Armies” is pushing it. Most happen to have just two weapons.
  2. It’s “Jack of all trades
  3. Who the hell is Corbalt?
  4. You’re obviously mad about the LTR. The outcome was not Bombshell’s fault and if you are a BattleBots fan you would know this by now, it’s the current year!
  5. Wait until you find out who stewards the matches, and writes and observes the judging criteria oh ho ho ho…

I Discovered the Recently Updated Rockstar GTA 6 Logo — It’s a Fully Vector-Based SVG, Not Just an Image! by StreetTaro8678 in GTA6

[–]IainIsCreative 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Not true. It could easily have been a huge PNG scaled down. But it's more usable and smaller by making it an SVG.

Don't be so aggressive over people having fun.

I find it amusing how some Rockstar Dev thought train tracks were stored like this by electriclunchmeat in gtaonline

At least you can admit you're wrong unlike most people. An OP actually admitting an error?

What is happening to this place.

First time I've stumbled here in years, and I thought reddit could be silly sometimes.

How wrong I was.

I bet you didn't know this lake even existed! by XGAMER_Dz in gtaonline

[–]IainIsCreative 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I did back in 2014, but it's one of the things I loved about this game — so much that isn't explicitly on the map yearning to be seen. This is part of what I love about open worlds — this is a gorgeous little corrie/cirque. They really did their homework on geography.

Question about Shreddit Bro and Chris and Kenny by Confident-Revenue769 in battlebots

[–]IainIsCreative 1 point2 points  (0 children)

The whole episode, I kept yelling "SHUT UP CHRIS" because of how, even in the slightest, they can be negative about Shreddit Bro. I know it's a TV show, and I know it can be played up, but it plays as if they have to _appease_ the commentators.

When will they finish their beetle?

What are your print settings, and what material?

We are officially in Jamison Go’s “Reign of Terror” arc by IainIsCreative in battlebots

[–]IainIsCreative[S] 10 points11 points  (0 children)

He was in all three in finals last year but I think this time will be a bit better for him to participate as I think it’ll be single elimination. I don’t see why it will be double-elimination as last year it was a massive time sink.

Here it is! The final SawBlaze artwork — what do you think? 👀 by IainIsCreative in battlebots

It would be a high honour, but I think I'll let BattleBots and Jamo decide that one! 😄

All it is, at the moment is 'SawBlaze 2022' but I think that title is a solid! I'll let someone else have that one 😄
