Human! You are about to become a sword robot! · By
Just saying this sounds like Calypso. Calypso was Upgrade-Bot and I was the never ending heroes that keeps on dying or leaving. I know this isn't funny or an screen shot but I say someone else who wrote a sad story. Something about an Australian and a Spider-tron 5000/6000. I'm Australian which is weird (I think these two are connected).
(I guess Upgrade-bot was a girl then).
I can tell what upgrades I got at the start. Because usually I embarrassingly die on 1,2 and 3 but now I can easily make to 6, 7 or 8.
Update on this
I made it to level 18 Titanium Yeah which is awesome, never thought I'll make it it but my game crashed during the battle but I can give you proof a made it to level 18.
I was having fun in Endless mode one day, chopping endless amounts of robots to bits, when i died on level 16. It was one of those Titanium progressive 3-stage jump pad levels (the blocky one, not the building one).
Suddenly, out of nowhere, 3 of the mk 3 sword robots came up to the platform that i died in, and started swordfighting over my corpse.
I kid you not, this image is proof of them fighting each other.
Before you ask, yes I did put this in the bug report thread. I just thought it was funny that they malfunctioned like this.
MK3 Swordsman #1: I KEEP HIS HEAD!
MK3 Swordsman #2: NO, I KEEP HIS HEAD!
MK3 Swordsman #3: NO, I KEEP HIS HEAD
*MK3 Swordsmen start fighting*
(MK3 Combat Archer) *shoots MK3 Sword Robot's head off* I keep the head, and the Sword Robots are inferior to the Combat Archers!
True fact, I never died to a MK3 Sword Robot, but almost always die to MK3 Combat Archers...
make it so that if you stay out of the elevator long enought the crowd comes and kills you =P
I don't care how, just make it happen.
p.s. plz
p.p.s. purdy plz
p.p.p.s. this is a random thought
(Commentatron) You do realize, that some human deaths are always dumb, right? I saw that EnderWitherX guy die because he walked onto a clear, moving sawblade...
(Commentatron) And the next human is... Doborog, OH HOLY MOTHERBOARD, HE HAS ALL OF THE UPGRADES AND 50 CLONES! SEND THE ULTRA SPECIAL TEAM, composed of five million MK2 Jetpack Bots, obviously
(Commentatron) No, he hasn't, or has- no, he clearly didn't do it... I think I see ummm... one, two, three, four, five, six, twelve...
It's safe to say, Doborog was turned in forty-eight pieces of robotic guts...
(Analysis-Bot) hmm... ok. next up. Erik. occupation, game developer. O.O he has weapons that I didn't even know existed!
(Commentatron) What? The Emperor hasn't approved those! Wait *checks a robotic pocket*......
HE STOLE THE WEAPON PLANS!! SEND THE PURGE TEAM, AKA FOUR BILLION SPIDERTRON 6666 (A Spidertron model that can't die, so it's not allowed in the arena)
OHMYGODOHMYGODOHMYGOD IT'S AMAZING!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
THANK YOU!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! :D
hmm... analyzing wink face... analyzing "hehe"... are you trying to tell me that it will come out very soon? (if so, my email is iosephusalbert@gmail.com xD)
just realizing now... did you cheat in 10 clones? (using the term cheat very loosely, seeing seeing as you're a dev)
you can edit that stuff yourself
by going to %appdata%/local_low/doborog
from there, go into endless mode data the only thing you should even touch is numclones:/0, availableskillpoints:0, and levelswon:0
Edit: i forgot about the new update, numtwitchclones:0
did you look at all my comments?
and yes i discovered appdata when i did minecraft moding
Ideas for additions are best posted in the proper forum section. Erik is more likely to find them that way, but he'll read them here as well undoubtedly, once he checks posts. I don't have much creative sway like a producer or anything, but I know Erik is open to suggestions from anyone, and tries to consider them as equally as if it were an idea he thought of (It has the same weight, objectively I mean, not that he's a thief.) - Thanks for them, by the way. It's the best feeling in the world to have people interested in where a project you're working on goes :-)
then here's a suggestion for you: multiplayer xD but really, I appreciate that (^) post, and i'm sure everyone else does, too. it's great to "meet" devs who actually care about feedback from players, and about improving their game :)
i can do that with a sword, but i guess its good for people who can't kill him by hitting him in the air.
I mean, you literally bash his head out of the center of his legs, leaving the legs standing. but what I'm the most interested in is seeing how they are going to incorporate the hammer into the upgrade tree :D
also can you make an upgrade that makes arrows faster?
Edit: ya, but is it a bug or not?
Not so much a bug. The hammer is pretty powerful with the jetpack at this point. Of course it's subject to refinement, but the distance on that decapitation was what made me make it into a gif. ;-)
the hammer should swing slower than sword, just because killing with it is very easy
from what I see in the first gif, there's at least a little delay in the hammer once the swing is over... and it's actually easier to swing a war-hammer fast than it is slow because centripetal force. I think
i am also reminded of Amy rose (from the sonic series) and her hammer with that model
i dont know why
The windup of the hammer strike is WAY longer, so it is far slower than it looks.
There are other drawbacks of the hammer, the handle doesn't damage them so you have to be more precise, and it doesn't block arrows and maybe swords too... I'm not sure.
You are correct, sir. The hammer indeed does not block swords (At least at this point, design subject to refinement, void where prohibited, must be a resident of Earth to apply.)
the hammer swing speed is more of an issue, as the windup is there, but it swings everything almost instantly when it does swing.
the windup helps with timing of the hammer speed
also, i think we know everything except for upgrades.
i already knew that hammers wont block swords, but they will ignore swords aswell.
the hammer robots will wreck new players
listen, the hammer is gonna change a lot of things, but, its the robots that will come.
the mark 1 and 2 hammer bots will wreck us like nothing
that's good
i don't think I've had a problem with camera, tho.
i hope the hammer gets slower, cause that recks everything
This is just the initial implementation. The sounds and animations aren't quite done, just the damage model. Things will be adjusted for feel during testing. The update is a little over three weeks away, so the next two will be all about adding and adjusting things to the game. - I agree that it's really OP right now :-)
probably not unless they get way ahead of schedule
making the hammer 10% slower will help alot. i think its not true, sadly. i can predict enemy movements and time it better, soo either it gets slower and people do worse, or it can be worse to swing faster. or it can be the exact opposite
my idea of classes make certain things look op, but it isn't. its all sort of balanced when you think of it. something easily counters this class, like a ninja being to fast for the knight, but berserkers bring him down fast with stun and execution. or just timing his throwing axe right. and the knight counters a berserker easy, having a shield to block axes and throwing axes, and spin attacking him.
and then adding some enemies based off alll the classes is a unique challange
could i be sent an email so that i could help with all my ability in bugs and what not?
i just wanna help out with all this new stuff
(Analysis-Bot) haha. silly human!
p.s. just kidding! you know way more about this than I do :3
why does the hammer swing forwards, go back, and then swing forwards again?
also wow that robot went flying!
yeah I saw in one of Erik's live streams the new upgrade tree, and I saw hammer with 2 size upgrades... was blurry so I couldn't read the size gain percentage :)
Hehe, yeah I was in his dev stream earlier today. Just thought I'd get a neat gif of the Mark 3 :-)
Final version they won't be able to be kicked, and colliding hammers will probably knock back with a "stun" for both parties. Or at the very least both not landing either attack.
Name ideas (Other than simply "Hammer Bot":
Minotaur
Thorbot
Desolator
Titan
Destroyer
Barbarian
Hercules (I dunno why, Hercules didn't have a hammer :P)
Hammermancer
Brute Bot
Also, tell me there isn't a Jetpack variant of it.
PS: Please
PPS: Purdy please
PPPS: Actually, a Jetpack hammer robot would be challenging
(Commentatron) But more human deaths means more Credits, I mean, more fun, and the Credits to buy a new Human Analyser for you, Analysis-Bot.
(Commentatron) You'll not be replaced, we'll only remove half of your internal systems and replace them by a more advanced one... you'll be the same, but you'll be a better version, all of your clones have it!
There is a not a jetpack hammer bot, but there is a FLAMING jetpack hammer bot (fire hammer)
Sort of reminds me of David and Goliath. Except with robots. And hammers. In an arena.
(SWARobot #426) *fires with a machine gun at Spidertron 6000's legs, and gets into the choppah* Target escaping! Initiating aerial pursuit.
