    Ok. Woolie.
    What you want is a Voltorb/Electrode. They are literal living bombs that don’t break apart after detonation. Because they’re considered living Pokémon, they wouldn’t have a problem with the time gate. They have practically infinite uses and can shrink to the size of Pokéballs, rolling around in tight spaces like Samus’s Morphball form. They are the ultimate robits.

      You think you can outsmart it by going up stairs- _it's just a big dumb ball,_ you think, _it can't follow me up here!_ But then, to your horror, you see the bastard start building up electrical energy. and instead of just exploding like you'd expect, it starts _floating after you!_

    Woolie ignores some REALLY important aspects of the human form. The human body is the perfect balance of precision, strength, speed and terrain movement. A robotic humanoid chassis pushed to it's functional extremes would be the most well rounded killing machine. It wouldn't excel at any one way of killing but it would make for an almost unparalleled power overall. It also doesn't have to look specifically human either just humanoid. General Greivas for example like they said

    This is why Tachikoma are the best robutt design.
    You want to go fast over flat terrain? They have wheels on their four legs.
    You want to go fast over weirdly angled but still relatively smooth terrain? The wheels are omnidirectional and can be independently angled, plus their leg joints work as the perfect suspension.
    You want to pick your way carefully over uneven terrain? They can move their wheels around so they're standing on the flat of the wheels and walk.
    You want to move up and over obstacles you can't walk up, zip up to a ceiling or just Spiderman your way around a city? They have a pair of mounted web-shooters that shoot webs capable of supporting their weight several times over.
    Short of flying and fitting in tight spaces Tachikoma are absolutely the best robot for sheer flexibility and efficiency of movement - all that and a chipper AI attitude.

  • @ufofighter16
    @ufofighter16 6 лет назад +3

    The reasons robots have legs:
    1. Any kind of hover/anti-grav movement most likely burns gas or requires a significant amount of energy to work, plus if whatever engine powering it is damaged, your robot loses all mobility, so if your robot was just a floating ball with guns, you'd be a sitting duck.
    2. Woolie's rant about tank treads being better in most situations is wrong, as leg-based movement essentially allows for all-terrain movement; also, legs allow greater mobility on the ground, as a robot with tank treads can't lye down behind cover or dive out of the way of an attack; basically, the speed bump you get with treads is at the cost of advanced mobility.
    3. Legs don't use fuel.
    *Cut to a scene from Gundam where someone's boosters run out of fuel and they need to walk*

    • @malikoniousjoe
      @malikoniousjoe 4 месяца назад

      Woolie is on the right path but missing the forest for the trees. The problem isn’t legs, legs are the greatest mode of transportation to ever exist for both fuel economy and terrain variation. The actual problem is making bipedal robots with human proportions. An MT, a Gecko, even Boston Dynamics RoboDog with a gun would all be a million times more efficient or practical and adaptable than a tank or god forbid hovercraft. The tank requires flatter stable ground than he thinks it does, and hovercrafts or floating anythings require absurd energy sources to burn and stay in flight. There’s a reason most birds and even a ton of aquatic life has some form of limb based locomotion. Even a humanoid with altered proportions to be better balanced and more squat to the ground or with reverse joint legs would beat out a car with a gun or a ball with multiple guns.

    @afterpasthours7504 6 лет назад +70

    Yes treads and wheels would be more applicable if the robot was just a moving box of guns and explosives but you know what’s more intimidating than that? A dextrous sentient killing machine that can stalk you and is way more proficient on it’s two or four legs than any human could ever be.
    You can’t exactly stealth an robot APC and there are tons of scenarios where being limited to rough terrain flat movement doesn’t work. Tight urban environments would be much better suited to robots that can sweep and move through buildings.
    When the world has been built around human-ish sizes and it’s verticality rather than horizontally, odd to believe that a tread-like robot would serve more practically.

      @afterpasthours7504 6 лет назад

      Well a smaller wheeled robot would be subject to the finer problems, like being unable to get back on it’s treads should it be kicked or thrown over.
      And the question now isn’t one of resources or cost, if there was everything piled into creating a human-like robot with no apparent limit on the future of technology, a robot with the apparent capabilities compared to humans may as well have superpowers.
      An Android would have much more purpose and use in a fight than just something that’s designed to kill with 100% efficiency, it’s hard to kill things when it’s not possible to get to them. A human-like would be able to break doors and clear through tight buildings.
      Basically if you took a kill-box and paired with a set of agile terminators there’d be little that could stand in their way.

    • @afterpasthours7504
      @afterpasthours7504 6 лет назад

      I simply question whether a treaded robot can fulfill as many things as one built around a human form can, of course if the entire goal is to kill everything as fast and as efficiently as possible, you’d just glass everything with nuclear weapons or chemical weapons. But if the entire purpose of these robots is to be placed in a war, a human-ish robot can complete tasks that the other can’t. A robot on tracks isn’t going to be rather subtle and probably can’t do things that require more finesse like say rescuing a hostage, of course a android-like isn’t going to boast as much firepower as one can strap onto something that was conceived to own all of it but in return you gain a much wider range of mobility and use.
      As far as the uses go for the robot on treads is securing an area or completely crushing an opposition, not to mention fingers are extremely versatile tools even just robot ones built to mimic it, and I think a human-like would be able to get up much faster than a tank-like could push itself back upright.

    Forgetting about the Hunter Killer bots in terminator that are tanktreads with a vaguely humanoid gun platform on it, plus the aerial versions and other drones that show up in salvation. The reason Skynet kept T-600s was combination of foot soldiers to find humans in human shaped places as well as slapping plastic or flesh over them to infiltrate and kill. Also as of the soft reboot from 3, all of the main tech being the military designs that Skynet had access to then improved and eventually developed things like the T-1000/X.

    Treads are just as susceptible to gunfire as legs are, and shooting a tread, which is a much larger target than a leg, disables the whole thing and now it can't move at all. Shoot one in the leg and it still has another leg and the ability to crawl.

  • @anubislol
    @anubislol 6 лет назад

    The biggest argument I've seen for legs is that it removes the necessity for roads (not just paved ones, but general clear paths). Roads are a necessity for speedy transportation with all modern vehicles. it's a reason why most militaries have dedicated engineer corps, among other reasons. If you have legs, you can traverse once previously difficult terrain (EG rocky Mountains, shitty deserts, swamps, etc.) that required a prepared path for treaded vehicles, which shortens supply routes, opens up a lot of strategic and operational (possibly tactical) options, and (with the addition of arms) aids in the vehicle getting up. I can't imagine a whole lot of scenarios where a tank can be flipped outside of video games. A better option would be a hover tank because it does the same thing as legs, but with less risk.
    EDIT: Woolie should read Bokurano for cool ass not human mecha designs.

  • @DrRyan82994
    @DrRyan82994 6 лет назад +19

    Tanks are really efficient machines. Even assuming you could make a humanoid mech for the same cost as a tank and control it with a link to a pilots brain like a battlemech, a tank is going to be more effective. It'd be really hard to put effective armor on a humanoid mech and a shot to the leg would probably be catastrophic. And if you need units where a tank can't go, a helicopter is pretty handy. Or you can avoid having a battle at all by using drone strikes. Real life is kind of lame for a mech fan lol

    I agree with Pat. Woolie is full of shit. Animal mechs are the greatest design both human and otherwise. These beings have evolved for thousands of years. That's thousands of years of research and development that nature has already done for us. Refusing to use that would be ludicrous. Human legs and arms are infinitely more useful than wheels or tank treads because there's a far greater range of utility. The only question is durability and maximum speed which can be supplemented by other auxiliary components that can detach or fold away.

    Woolie just disregarding the philosophical reasons why sentient robots would try to emulate their creators. Even if the robots wish to exterminate their God/Creator(Humanity) that act in and of itself is them wishing for us to aknowledge their supremacy and affirm their existence. Sentience and self recognition always lead to a search for purpose and who's to say they wont look back at relics of humanity(Writings,Monuments,Records Of History, Art, Religious texts,Music) and try to emulate us in some capacity.

      What assumption Im simply stating how humans ourselves have an intangible and possibly fictitious creator but people still find meaning in those teachings. Imagine having a tangible creator that you live alongside. Also there's the argument some schools of engineering model their machines after designs from nature because nature designs things far more efficiently than the human mind. If anything you're making the assumption that something Self-Aware wouldn't try to find meaning within it's creators especially if they are right there, and you're also making the assumption nature is inefficient in its design.

    In most cases bi-pedal is better than wheels. Also the robot should only carry one gun so it can reload faster.

    Robots/Androids compensating for extra recoil from dual wielding 2 hand firearms isn't just a function of strength It's about mass too. There aren't many light, low-recoil, large caliber rifles. Heavy rifles recoil less. If you had an Android with light but strong limbs they'd have a hard time compensating for the sudden jerk of recoil.

    @zaneseibert 6 лет назад

    Here's a really specific problem I have with a bunch of mechs. Why do so many of the have their cockpit entrances forward facing and in the chest? Let's put a huge structural weak point, that will definitily kill the pilot, in the front, center of mass.

    • @Hakkai181
      @Hakkai181 6 лет назад

      Is also the biggest part of the body, so you can put a cockpit there and reinforce it. Otherwise you problably have to create a HUGE mech so you can install the cockpit and keep it secure. Like the Zeong in the Original Gundam, which was big enough to hav de cockpit intalled on the head instead of the torso.

    • @zaneseibert
      @zaneseibert 6 лет назад

      I'm not specifically talking about the cockpit being in the chest, I'm talking about the entrance being in the front. To make it more clear, Gundams having the FRONT of them open up is stupid, AS's from Full Metal Panic having it at the nape of the neck is smart. In both scenarios the cockpit is in the chest but having a door, which is a huge structural weakness in the most exposed area bothers me. There's a reason why most military vehicles irl have their doors on the back or top.

    • @Jsay18
      @Jsay18 6 лет назад

      Why do we have that canopy right in the front of the Jet fighter? It's such a weak point!

    • @zaneseibert
      @zaneseibert 6 лет назад

      Jsay18 The canopy on a jet is there for visibility, which mechs don't deal with since most have cameras in the head. Honestly a jet doesn't even need one if it had cameras mounted on it like a drone or mech does. Even then that doesn't matter because one missile would fuck up a plane if it hit anywhere but the edge of the wing or tail. Most planes are built for evasion, not durability.

    Here's why this argument is dumb. There's no way to keep a giant robot in the air for very long while being multi-directional unless you attatch helicopters and jets powerful enough to move it on each side. And even /then/, wheels can get stuck and have extreme rotary problems that require probably more attention than fixing what's essentially a stick with joints

    But crouching. A tank can't crouch unless it's a GiTS think tank. Crouching saved my ass in mechwarrior multiple times...
    Also, guns attached to a machine is a dumb idea. If the guns are fixed, that means shotgun bot is for shotgun time. Then you have to make rifle bot. And if you make the cube with all the guns, that costs way more resources; one bot costs way more in resources. And fixing a fixed gun is a pain in the ass, because if the gun is broke the robot is broke. You have to be cost efficient and manage your resources if you are taking on 7 billion people. Arms (or weapon bays) are the way to go.
    And having legs means leg bot can do jungle terrain and regular terrain and do stairs. Tread bot only can do so much.
    Robots probably should act and fight like the species that dominates the planet a little bit.

      Mostly because you don't run the risk of disintegrating parts of your body whenever you so much as graze the blade of an actual sword with your arm or hand. Using a lightsaber leaves absolutely no room for mistakes of that kind. Hence intense Force-induced focus.
