Hi Pathforger! Looking at the rankings I didn't expect much either. Honestly, I was so busy trying to hunt the human players and avoid ( for the most part) the ais, that I didn't realize how close it was until after the fact. In the end it was a fun chaotic match despite the ais. I appreciate your kind evaluation of my gameplay. I always appreciate your perspective. Thanks for commenting!

@@noodlebiscuit77 Chaos often lends itself to a better, more interesting time. ^_^ Always look forward to your gameplay!

Hey there @theimperfectgod7140. I know what you mean. RC is still fun to play, but nothing like it used to be. I played pretty steady from the end of 2016 to the end of 2019. ( I missed the 2015 era) Now the game is full of bots, except maybe for a few hours on the weekends, when I am usually taking care of family obligations. All we can do now is make the best of it and enjoy what we can. Hopefully the Robocraft revamp will be as good or better than the old RC. Thank you for your comment. It's much appreciated!

Hi @butterontoast7! I'm glad you liked it. I appreciate your support and comment!

Hi @pognomme ! That was you lol?!? That explains why you played so well. Too many of us veteran players using alts. 😂 GG and thanks for commenting!

Hi @Pathforger ! I just felt the urge to make a short video ( so I don't forget how) It was a fun match considering, and I like to see newer players put up such a good fight. Makes me feel a small sense of hope for the games future. So good to hear from you and thanks for commenting! It's always appreciated.

@@noodlebiscuit77 That is a good point. Glad you enjoyed the match! And it's good to see you down in the comments. You're welcome!

Hey there @butterontoast7 . Glad you liked it. I've been enjoying watching your videos as well. I don't get to play that often anymore, so I am always glad to see others putting out RC content. Also enjoying your Halo videos!

@@noodlebiscuit77 Thanks that means a lot to me!

not saying youre bad or anything. but cmon man! tap fire and memorise ur fire speed. helps with accuracy.

Hey @Whythering. I appreciate your insight. I honestly just don't play that often now. Maybe a couple hours every few months or so. I also don't have the reflexes that I use to ( I am in my 50's). Robocraft ranking is no more than a gauge of how much you play. That being said, I started playing RC somewhere around the end of 2016. I acquired my current protonium 5 ranking at the end of 2019. I played RC 20 to 30 hrs a week back then, and although I did platoon occasionally ( even farmed for a short while,) most of my ranking is as a solo player.( Like 85 to 90%). I also reached protonium in the version before the "lack of " Physics update. I have never stated that I was good at the game, as I am a casual player. The NYA guys as well as a few from 1MInd , Spartans, and a few other clans are truly good players. Thank you for your interest and your comments!

oh god... youre 50..??? christ. sorry man. wow... @@noodlebiscuit77

i didnt state that you claimed urself to be good. just was confused with how tou used rails at a high rank. veteran returning to this game in their 50's is something ive never seen before... @@noodlebiscuit77

50s aren't so bad. You just have to invest more time when playing games to be consistently good. Time I don't have as much of and sometimes just prefer to do other things. Maybe when Freejam comes out with the RC remake I will find the time. Thanks again for your comments.

Hi Pathforger! I have only had the time to make videos this week due to illness. Sick enough to not push myself physically when not working, bored enough that I wanted to do something semi productive. This match was one of several I played testing out the changes to plasma and mech leg jumping capabilities at the end of November last year during the Thanksgiving holidays.. It is unfortunate that there were as many ai's as there were, and they can be problematic for either team in any type of match including ba. The problem is that there is no "a(i)" in the word team. But seriously, having a healer is the only reason we won. The other team could have definitely coordinated themselves with their ais better and defeated us quickly. Either way it was still a lively match. I generally don't get to schedule a time to play, I just play when I can fit it in , and often I would rather be doing something else during those times. Thank you for your comment my friend. It's always appreciated!

Hi Pathforger! Thank you for the kind comment. I finally had a little time and a desire to make a video. I had a difficult time masking the annoying emoji sound glitch, so the sound seems off . On a humorous note, I was going to include some corny comment about having the " high ground" but decided not to in the end. I miss your videos my friend. Thanks again!

Hi Pathforger! I have played very few matches recently ( with the exception of some ai matches for testing. I've been enjoying building more than playing as of late, which is weird for me. Getting old I guess 😂. Thanks for commenting my friend. It's always appreciated!

@@noodlebiscuit77 There remains enjoyment to be had from building (until the balance traitors do their thing yet again). Well glad to see you're getting any kind of enjoyment. Take care!

I have used helium in my mechs and dislike the drag when jumping, even using a minimal amount. I also used them on most of my sprinters as well. I probably should add a few to see how they affect the movement in this bot. Always good to reinforce in vital areas. I do somewhat have a problem with how over buffed the health of helium is, but at this point, I might as well use it more. Thanks for the suggestion and your comment!

@@noodlebiscuit77 no problem, personally I made my mech out of LOTS of helium blocks for the frame, meaning that it doubles as a stationary drone when it's legs fall off, sometimes this confuses the bots and other times... Well this might be slightly better than being on the ground.

Hi @tvcutiesiyoonsiyoontv0800! I am doing well. I appreciate you asking! Still pretty busy in real life. I hope your Robocraft experience was a good one. It seems to be more difficult to enjoy these days. I haven't been playing that much, maybe an hour or 2 a month (not counting building). I have been enjoying building in Robocraft a little more. I hope you enjoy your time with your grandma! I know how much my mother enjoys seeing her grandkids. Grandparents are special. Make the most of your time with them. You can learn a lot. I hope you and your family are well. I'm happy that you are enjoying my videos. I appreciate you watching them and commenting!

One comment. It may be my imagination but I suspect that your mouse sensitivity is set a little too high. It results in greatly jerky motion and might have resulted in some of those misses.

That was definitely an action packed match. I only played 2 matches that day. The first one I was trying out a new T 5 rail copter I had built . Unfortunately I was paired with 4 ais against a 4 man of farmers. I managed ok, but was stomped and my nerves ended up a little frayed. So I decided to use this mech in the second match, ( another new build) to have a larger health pool and because it's what I am most comfortable with. As far as my mouse setting being too sensitive, yeah, it definitely is 😂. I did recently change the dpi settings increments in my software, but I think I also played around with the settings in RC. My reaction time isn't what it use to be ( or thought it was) . Hopefully I will find a setting that can still track faster fliers and not be too sensitive. I also tended to rush my shots. Thanks for commenting and for the observation/ advice! It's always appreciated.

​@@noodlebiscuit77 Leave it to matchmaking exploiters to ruin what should be a positive match experience. 9_9 Unfortunately I've noticed an up-tick in their ilk. Sorry that you had to go through that while testing a new bot! Your current mouse settings probably work well if you have a narrow span within which you can move your mouse - which will work out for as long as you are not zoomed in. While zoomed, you'll find that the dpi settings over compensate. Test it one small reduction at a time until you feel comfortable. Oh and you're welcome. Good to see you in action. ^_^

Hi Mr.b5ecf322 ! Fun fact. The original version was a sprinter back in 2019. 😂 It's name was Frump. Back when you could slap just a prop on the back of a medium weight sprinter and it would still jump great. I did make this mech version in 2019, just with t4 rails and t4 plasmas back then. Chicken does have a video on his channel where he and Spyro platoon with my son and I. I was using Frump in that video if you are curious. I miss those days. I hope you are doing great! Thanks for commenting.

@@noodlebiscuit77 Oh, my, the good days with the boys, priceless. I miss that so much. I'm doing good as always. ;)

Hi Pathforger! It definitely was an enjoyable match that gave healers on both sides a workout. The 10% auto heal idea might lead to longer, more enjoyable (or frustrating) matches. It would be something I would definitely be willing to try .Thank you for watching and commenting! It's always appreciated.

@@noodlebiscuit77 You are welcome. ^_^ As for mild autoheal, pretty sure custom games give the boundaries within which autoheal values may be adjusted.

Yeah, I was just trying to have some fun with the video and commentary. I figured it is probably best to do on shorter videos due to time constraints. I do need to rework the upper props to be more useful as damage sinks since I primarily just threw them on there to replace the thrusters on a whim originally. The props seem to do better than thrusters on heavy mechs currently. Which if intentional, is not a bad idea. Thank you for your comment Pathforger. It's always appreciated!

@@noodlebiscuit77 Ah yes. Damage routing on the props is mostly about routing each connection to a different location of the build (such that the connections are better than blockspam-adjacent). Props have more thrust that thrusters lack - and less speed boost in the one direction. Thrusters might work better on very light builds. Glad you're having fun. ^_^ Constraints are best worked with than against. Take care!

Hi Pathforger! I'm glad you liked it. I've had very little time to play. I think I have played 3 matches since the update. Probably just 5 or 6 total for the last month or so. I hope to find the time (and desire) to play more. I do enjoy the editing more now that I pace myself. I have enjoyed your past few videos, ( including the rants). I haven't commented due to the fact I haven't played enough to get a fair idea on the balance changes to the game. Tho I do think removing the uniqueness of parts, whether movement or weapons is a step in the wrong direction. Which seems to be what they are doing. Most of the updates seem to benefit " competitive" players more than anyone else. Giving them new / different ways to exploit the system and cure their boredom of the game. Ok, I guess I do have a generalized opinion 😅 based on the balance patch history. I appreciate your support as always and your own determination to keep making videos.

@@noodlebiscuit77 Time constraints and other competing element are more than understandable reasons to pace oneself. I'll continue to enjoy them when they come -whenever such should be. Main thing is to make it worth one's while, right? ^_^ I am happy to hear that you've been enjoying the vids (even the ranty ones ^_^; ). I think your assessment of the motives at play are fairly close to the mark - and this without being entirely clear as to that which runs through their heads. Keep on trucking. ^_^

Hi Pathforger! It was indeed a fun match to play. I'm glad you enjoyed it. I do think one of the human players on the red team wasn't pulling their weight. ( Didn't realize that until I was almost finished editing) . But the other 2 and the ais put up a good fight. I definitely agree with you on the chaingun ais ( and others) needing to be as good as they are. ( Not looking forward to running into your chain gunner mech build tho. 😂) With the dwindling player base it can at least keep it interesting, and maybe teach new players not to just rush in and die. ( One can hope) Thanks for commenting. It's much appreciated!

@@noodlebiscuit77 Yes, that particular player has a bad habit of deliberately throwing for his team. ~_~ Good AIs are part of what keeps the game alive. And that can to a point be preferable to emptier matches (occasionally wouldn't mind a 4v4 or even 3v3 situation though). I very much doubt you'll encounter this particular chain mech frequently. ^_^ It'll probably be selected once every thousand matches or so. Oh and you are welcome. Thank you for the cool content! ^_^

Hi Mr. B5ECF3! Yeah, it's been a while. Life has been hectic but has calmed down a little bit now. My mother was sick, but is doing better now. I managed to play a few rounds of bobo a couple weeks ago. I decided to edit my videos in shorter chunks now due to time constraints. I did manage to play a few more rounds this past weekend that were a little better matchups. I hope to start editing one of those soon . I'm going to try and put out at least one or two a month as time allows. Thanks for commenting and for wanting to see more of my videos. That is both flattering and humbling.

No pressure. It happens so, some days are more hectic than other days. ;)

Hi Pathforger! It was indeed regrettable that the highest ranked player on their team disconnected. I really didn't notice it until we closed in on their spawn point. They would have no doubt made a big difference. We already had flyers with loml and plasma to deal with. A good player with a T5 smg could have turned the tide, or at least made our team play more defensively. I was honestly just glad to get a break and play again. Thanks for your comment!

@@noodlebiscuit77 Ba situations happen. So long as one isn't conceivably the reason the bad thing happened (matchmaking exploiters, for example) then one's conscience is clear. The only thing more that one could do is to get to a point where one is satisfied with one's lead and to ease off to let other players apply pressure. Alternatively to double down and get the match done sooner. ^_^

Yeah, that's true. I actually tried to back off after I realized that they were down one. ( Yes, I was a little slow to recognize it 😅) Then I saw the flyers coming my way and it was like a dog seeing a squirrel . 😂 Thanks again for your kind comment.

@@noodlebiscuit77 Being slow to notice that is more of a compliment to the opposition. ^_^ I know I've on occasion edited entire videos without realizing that we were one player up (whoops). So it quite easily happens. Especially when the opposition goes hard. ^_^ And you are welcome!

Hi there tvcutiesiyoonsiyoontv! Yes it has been a long time. I haven't really played that much since the end of last year. The last few videos were from that time period. My elderly mother has been declining in health for a while now. ( she's 88) I have been taking care of her when I am not working or taking care of other family obligations. I use to try to play in the evenings or possibly for an hour or so on the weekend. I was finally able to edit a few videos when I was sick awhile back. So I guess the short answer would be that I am ok, but very busy, and have been too tired to play much when I'm done with my other obligations. I hope you are doing well. Thank you for checking on me!

@@noodlebiscuit77 thx for the information about u and ur family

Hi brubrehii5620. I definitely agree with you. Loml is very annoying. Thank you for commenting! Did you ever get the chance to check out TwoTone Terminus?

@@noodlebiscuit77 the two whatcha-what? sorry, I was actually working on something in robocraft after this video, it inspired me. Later that day I discovered a clipping glitch, basically press tab a bunch and click as fast as you can when a block is red, place a sheild preferably, then once you do that you now have a clipped sheild, it may not always work but when it does it's worth it.

Lol, I guess you didn't see my response to your comment on my "Getting Buzzed " video. TwoTone Terminus is a youtuber/ robocrafter that has some videos on how the damage mechanics of robocraft work, as well as how to apply damage routing, damage sinks ect.(triforcing) to your bots. The ability to glitch parts has been around for quite some time. Just be aware that using bots with glitch placements in a match, other than a custom match, can get you banned from the game.

Glad you liked it!

@@noodlebiscuit77 ah but of course, I always appreciate another robocraft player's gameplay, Even more so I always appreciate watching small youtubers.

Hi bruhbrehii5620! I'm glad you liked my video and like my mech. I have to admit that my building abilities are just so so. I know the basics of what they refer to as triforcing or damage routing and I do use it to a degree in my builds. I encourage you to check out a fellow robocrafter/ RUclipsr by the name of TwoTone Terminus. He goes into depth about the damage mechanics of Robocraft and how you can route damage as well as use of damage sinks, split protection, and what they call tick delays. There is also a link to his channel on mine. If you still want to look at my mech afterwards ( I have modified it a little since the video), let me know. I don't usually share my builds, as I consider them primitive compared to what can be done. But I can make an exception .

Glad you liked the shot Mr.b5ecf322 ! Probably was half lucky 😂. Made me remember the days I was better at it. Thanks for your comment!

Hi Pathforger! Yeah, between not playing that much and not wanting to get caught out in the open on that particular map, I was playing rather reserved. The higher angles definitely help when using plasma. This match also took place a little while before the whuthehay and the mehk video where I did a little better. I suppose I will get better with time if I play more ,but I doubt I will get back to where I use to be in 2019. Thank you for your comment and advice!

@@noodlebiscuit77 There is absolutely nothing wrong with only playing when you fancy and taking it easy. My suggestion was just intended to make aim with plasma on a jump bot a little easier. ^_^ Take care of yourself!

Hi Pognomme! I'm glad you liked the video. Thank you for your comment!

Hi Pathforger! Glad you enjoyed the video. I can see why you thought it would involve teslas. Legs getting removed happens somewhat easily when t4/5 plasma is involved, even with rod forcing and damage sinks. Now with the speed reduction, I imagine it will be worse . Thank you for your comments. They are always appreciated!

@@noodlebiscuit77 Oh yes. Legs have a massive hitbox and have a greater chance of soaking up plasma damage as a result. All one can do is add more legs and maybe backup movement - but that's not always fun. ^_^ Yes, the situation has not gotten better in that regards. And you're welcome. Always nice to see you in action.

Hi Pathforger! First of all, I don't really consider you to be salty. To me there is a difference between a person who cares enough to encourage / direct others in a match and those who taunt verbally or otherwise , brag, name call, ect. use abusive speech during a match. When we get frustrated (and it's not hard to do in Robocraft), I call that venting. We all do that. As far as the rest, I suppose I'm just tired. I have been listening to the kind wisdom and encouragement given to me, and pacing myself. That's why I take breaks both from RC and RUclips.( And sometimes life gives me no choice) But I do still find joy in playing RC occasionally and definitely in editing the videos. It's kinda therapeutic. Thank you for all your kind encouragement, wisdom, and support. It's always appreciated!

@@noodlebiscuit77 I appreciate your vote of confidence. ^_^ I personally consider salt to be akin to venting. They are a kind of "toxicity" that is a direct bi-product of a situation or relevant circumstances rather than due to other reasons (a desire to establish superiority or to garner personal satisfaction at the expense of others). Do not fret. I've long since accepted that I am salty. ^_~ For as long as the game brings you enjoyment, there is little reason not to partake of it, until there is. ^_^ Glad to hear you are balancing things well, and you are certainly welcome!. Take care!

Hi Keleksos! , I have been experimenting with a light mech with wings with some success. I'll definitely try rudders after the patch. I'd definitely be interested to see what you come up with. I don't give up on things easily. But life is keeping me busy and Robocraft isn't as important to me anymore. Plus being 50 sucks. 😂 Thank you for your kindness and your comments. It's fun watching you play. You are getting very competitive and giving the long term competitive players a run for their money, even outplaying them at times. It's a joy to watch. Keep up the good work and be sure to pace yourself. Real life is always more important.

Hi Pathforger! I did primarily use this bot to test out ranked up T4 flak. In this case, it was primarily against ground bots. I did expect this match to go differently. Decent players along with murder bots usually do well. Our team covered each other well. It also helped having air support. If they had had flak, or a good loml flyer, it would have gone differently. Robocraft is a team game. And while being a good player has it's own merit, it doesn't mean as much as having decent teammates that will cover each other. As far as flak, well it's still just meh against ground ( but that's what I would expect) and still not as good against air as it use to be, but better than it was after they broke it. They still have dumbed it down too much and turned it into a no skill rapid fire weapon. I'll need to do more testing and probably switch to t5 flak. Thank you for the comment and glad you liked the video!

Hey there @@noodlebiscuit77 ^_^ That is a fair assessment of the situation. Even though the Red team had a disadvantage in the form of an additional feeder AI, they were quite fierce and supported their AIs to the best of their ability. It was certainly possible to have overturned the advantage against your team had they not been mostly on the ball. I have heard that flak's anti-air isn't working as well as it should - and that we may be seeing a full revert in projectile speed to before it was super-accelerated. So we may see flak's anti-air effectiveness being improved further. And yes, the damage cap on flaks is less than it was before - but it also deals more damage sooner - making it more effective against short exposure flyers. I am actually quite happy with flak's anti-ground capabilities (which is more evident with T5 flaks) as I've been requesting this for a very long time. At this point it is actually 'viable' to play a pure flak bot in Tier 5 by my reckoning - and I'm all for it! ^_^ Still probably more optimal to pair it with an anti-ground weapon, of course. ^_^

Hi Pathforger! I'm glad you enjoyed the video. This is the same body I have in many of my current sprinter builds. All of them have different tweaks and changes. This one has several as I had to change it to use mech legs. The ridge is for both aesthetics and extra structural support . I also added a second layer of struts down the center just to see what it would do. I will probably tweak it more. I desperately need to build some new bots but haven't had the time to do so and my desire to play Robocraft has been dwindling. I am liking the extra mobility this mech is demonstrating with the added thrusters and props. I will probably make both a light sprinter and light mech in the future just to see the differences in speed, jumping ability , and agility after this last patch. Thanks for your comment and support. It's much appreciated!

Hey there @@noodlebiscuit77! Oh it was thoroughly enjoyable to watch. ^_^ It is understandable that you have felt the need to swap sprinter legs for mech legs. It just makes sense right now. Good luck making an effective light sprinter. That is a challenge that I've been tempted to approach - trying to prove that true sprinters aren't totally dead - but I'll need to scrounge time to do that and it probably wouldn't be soon (besides I don't really feel like it right now as there are a good selection of non-screwed-over movement parts that one can play instead). ^_^; Oh, and do what feels right at any point in time. Robocraft can wait until you fancy giving a new kind of build a try. ^_^

Hi @tvcutiesiyoonsiyoontv0800! Did you ever get a chance to send me a friend request? And if so, what is your in game name? I did check awhile back. I've literally only been playing 30 mins here and there recently. I seem to always get interrupted by real life.

Hi! @Mrb5ecf322 . No need to feel bad and definitely no reason to be jealous my friend. I only started the channel to record some raw Robocraft footage before it died or I quit playing. But I knew there were not that many people covering RC anymore and decided to make them public. Then I accidentally changed a setting one day in OBS and didn't record any of the game sound for a match I liked, so I added music. It was fun to do so I have been experimenting a little here and there ever since. I still have a very long way to go and honestly don't have a lot of time . I think your videos are great. The only thing I would suggest is to make them shorter like your last one. People have a short attention span nowadays, and /or limited time. ( You'll still find that people only watch 50% or less of most videos because they skip through sections. ) Just be yourself and figure out what works for you. And make sure you are having fun and enjoying what you are doing. The rest will all come with time. Thanks for commenting and for subscribing. I appreciate the support!

@Noodlebiscuit77 Sorry for late respond I just got greatly affected by fever a moment. (Not COVID19) I also see that people only watch a small portion of the clips too. No matter the length surprisingly enough. So you are right, I still experiments with a lot of things so changes are and will be common. Like shorter clips. I've been enjoying what I've learned and made so far. Also just jealous in a good way. I once wrote to someone while playing a game: "It's good to be bad, because it's then you can become better" if I thinks your videos are better it just means I can improve and that's good to know for me.

No worries . That's a great and positive way to look at things. Sorry to hear you're sick. Rest up and get well soon !

Thank you.

What exactly are you referring to? I never left the game.

Well, whoever you are, I doubt that you are such an amazing player that you could scare me away or even make me rage quit or surrender. That doesn't happen. No one has in over 5 years. Real life, changes in circumstance and changes in priorities generally are responsible for my actions. Do yourself a favor and learn some humility, because life has an uncanny way of forcing it upon us. Take care.

Hi there GamesGoneNuts! Robocraft is still a fun game despite it's shrinking player base. I suggest giving it a try if you haven't already. Also keep an eye out for Robocraft 2 which is in early development. Glad you enjoyed the video and thanks for liking and commenting!

Hey Keleksos! Yeah it definitely is more fun to play in a two person party. I do occasionally platoon with my son. I personally see nothing wrong with platooning in a 2 man. I used to belong to House Baratheon several years ago. I would platoon with several of my clan mates/ friends semi regularly. I am familiar with q syncing as we tried to do that a few times when I was still there. I have even "farmed" before (back in 2019.) Didn't like it , and that is one of the reasons I started playing alts. Playing as a random to try to help newer players against the "farmers". ( And I wanted the non premium account experience to see what it took to rank up. ) Well, some of the farmers have gotten a little better, and I really haven't. Getting too busy and too old I suppose. I try to leave the politics in the past now as there really is no point to it anymore. Thank you for keeping me informed and I appreciate the info on the ais. Thanks for watching my video and for commenting. It's always appreciated!

>if you see a big NYA party against a normal team it's a queuesync fail. HAHAHAHAHA

I guess I was mistaken about that one lol

Glad you liked it! Did you ever get my reply for sending you a friend request in RC? I just need your in game name and I will send the request as soon as I log in again. ( If you sent one to my noodlebiscuit account, I haven't been on it in a few weeks. I'll try to check it tonight. )

@@noodlebiscuit77 hi thx for the comment i will send a request after with the name of noddlediscuit77

Hi Pathforger! Yes this match was a little rough, mainly because I couldn't seem to keep up with the varying distances the tesla was hitting me from. I will just assume they had bad internet. It was enjoyable getting my revenge. All in all, it turned out to be a decent match. I'm glad you liked the video and thanks for commenting. Always appreciate it!

@@noodlebiscuit77 Yes, I do tend to narow my eyes when a tesla begins hitting from more generous distances. Again though, could be a higher ping in action. I wonder if the game should just have embraced ping and impose a negative damage modifier on players with higher pings - along with a damage resistance modifier in kind. 'shrugs' Always enjoy seeing your videos in my feed. ^_^

Both of those ideas would have been great if properly implemented. Too bad we will never find out. I know of several players that utilize high ping to their advantage.

Some bots lend themselves well to capturing the points. However it is 'very' rare that a player has a valid reason as to why they don't manage a reasonable (approaching and beyond 1K) score in objectives. An inclination to cap is often more important than how fast the bot is. And most AIs (especially medics) are inclined to cap. ^_~ 3K is a 'very' good objectives score - but usually means that the team is having trouble holding points.

Hi valorel1982! Getting 3000 objective points regularly is a nice achievement. It's also great when your teammates help by capping and holding points to lessen the load. It is a team game after all. Thank you for commenting and I am glad you liked the video!

Hi Keleksos! I definitely agree with you about the plasma buff. Although t4'and t5 plasma has become more viable for ground bots now, they have given flyers the advantage once again. Flak use to be able to control flyers at a decent range. Now it's preferable to use rail or smg. And while they may work against a flyer, they are not as effective against multiple flyers or as you said, 1 good flyer/ player. I did hear that t4 plasmas were better than T 5's. I actually have plenty of T4 bots on my older accounts to test that. Many of them are T 4 flak plasma but I do have several with rail. Maybe my next mech will be a T4 rail/ plasma.

and I know Auryceilo he is my gameing friend

What is your in game name?

Hey there Valorel1982. Glad you liked the video/match. Thanks for commenting!

Hi Pathforger! I honestly only have the helium on the outside layer as it was getting late and I just wanted to add a little more health. I really don't like the interaction of helium with forward/ upward jumping momentum. Doesn't seem to affect jumping backwards (that much)oddly enough. As for the match, I'm glad it ended up being more even than I had anticipated. Thank you for your comment and advice. If I decide to add more heliums, I will definitely give your suggestions a try. Thanks again!

Having the helium mostly on the outside makes it more likely to get shot off, using its insane health and reducing the potentially-immobilizing lift for when you run out of heavy parts.

@@noodlebiscuit77 You are welcome - and apologies for the delay in response. ^_^ If the heliums are just applied externally then you are unlikely to run into problems with lift. ^_^ In that case I'd suggest shifting some of the flank heliums to the core to increase the effective health of the core. Channeling the electroplates through heliums is a good idea. And it's cool to exchange thoughts - like Keleksos has done. ^_^

Yeah, I had originally thought of encompassing a core of heavy cubes with helium/ heavy counter stacked on the outer 2 layers. But I was lazy and it was late. And as I mentioned I don't like the drag helium has. I prefer a balance of mobility and health.

No worries my friend. It has been so long since I originally built that mech, I would have to fully pull it apart to see what all I had done. I do plan on building a new mech soon from scratch and will be experimenting more. I enjoy the input from both Keleksos and yourself ( as well as others) Now I just need the time to build it. 😁
