what’s the difference with cyclop, does it have better stats or something? It seems it's only a M.A.O. with a different skin with no other difference. It comes equipped with Sarisas instead of Hammers by default. I believe it is also cash only and T3 only OKAY, late to the party with *that* one....

They're also given away in competitions and are supposedly available on the Black Market too (but seem to be a very rare drop).

I was using Sarisa / Beacon on my Bully for a while and now I'm back to Vulcan / Fulgur. The pending improvement to Bully's rotation speed could improve this build a lot. It's been doing a fair bit of work in Steel Convoy regardless. I've also been trying to sync my Tirpitz's Sarisas to my Inquisitor, and have made all three weapons fire at different rates by using Automation + Feeding Gear on one Sarisa. The logic behind this is I'm trying to make the weapons harder to dodge. Not sure how effective it is yet. I've begun playing around with the BoT Simulator on Google Sheets.

Personally I don’t think it matters. Feeding gear is kinda weak, I’d only use it on FFFF jav.

My current Ancile/Vulcan Bully build mostly fights by blocking enemy shots with the Ancile until it can shoot them with the 5s reload Vulcan. It's good in theory but requires new fighting skills on my part. Hammer/Mangler sounds fun. I'm not sure if staggering the shots on my Tirpitz matters either. There tend to be a lot of Cormorants on the Asian server and I keep changing it up regardless. FFFF Javelin seems to have the highest DPSC All T2 Sprint Extenders on my Bully is letting me reach Center Beacon in a single sprint, then after capping it I can sprint over to the next one.

Do u get increase score for capping beacons or is it solely map advantage? for heavy builds run all feeders on Jav cuz you’ll be exposed more so crank up the dps. For light builds all reinforced so you can run out, unload high damage, then retreat behind cover. I think bully is the fastest bot in the game. Do u get there faster than corm? How do you feel about the controls vs War Robots? It feels much less smooth still and sometimes I will far overshoot where I’m trying to point at. Just switched to all medium bots cuz it’s much easier for me to control than lights right now. Still working on finding sensitivity I like kokobop I sent u a squad invite idk if u saw but feel free to ping me in discord anyone

Do u get increase score for capping beacons or is it solely map advantage? Capping beacons seems to give no score at all. It's handy for dropping my Tirpitz though. The sprint extenders also let me scout a Steel Convoy location in a single sprint. My Cormorant can do it too, but it's nice to have options. for heavy builds run all feeders on Jav cuz you’ll be exposed more so crank up the dps. For light builds all reinforced so you can run out, unload high damage, then retreat behind cover. Yep. Some like RRRR when carefully choosing their target, as do some who forget to fire their Javelins in the heat of battle too. I think bully is the fastest bot in the game. Do u get there faster than corm? My Heavy Cormorant currently flies at 121 km/h. My mixed setup Bully with T2 Ancile sprints at 109 km/h and runs at 58.8 km/h. It sprints at over 121 km/h without the T2 Ancile though. My Cormorant has gotten trashed grabbing Centre Beacons though. How do you feel about the controls vs War Robots? It feels much less smooth still and sometimes I will far overshoot where I’m trying to point at. Just switched to all medium bots cuz it’s much easier for me to control than lights right now. Still working on finding sensitivity I like It's a lot more difficult. War Robots controls have become a bit of a joke to me though due to lag, though. I can be shooting people and doing no damage, then suddenly they "teleport" away behind cover. The often lag-blink around the screen while shooting them normally too - Phantoms being the worse. I can also instantly end up on Last Stand / dead during a lag spike, as all the bots pause for a few seconds then instantly re-arrange themselves around me. New best. BM rewarded me with a T2 mao Nice! Not sure if I want a regular M.A.O. or a Cyclops M.A.O...

FFFF seems decent-ish on a Sarisa Tirpitz but I'm going the MRRR route. I like the heavy damage if a blow lands. I'm currently saving up for a T3 Inquisitor.

Anyone elese getting weird one sided matches with human players on your team that have no idea how to play the game or spend all match going for a hike in mountains? Some matches are awesome and down to the wire while others are not.

Im not gonna say I quit War Robots but if I get any lag now I will just play BoT. I’m done playing thru lag.

Some matches are awesome and down to the wire while others are not. yea but I think it gets better as your cups go up. Less noobs and tougher AI. Yep, it hardly happens to me anymore. We sometimes get a huge teams of people gathering around and working as a military unit (like in the movies) as we escort the Martian Tirpitz in Steel Convoy too. Also, I tried dropping my Light again to grind through Death Matches faster (and with only two 2 deaths max) but I started getting so many Steel Convoys that I put my Bully back in action. It's a trooper. I really miss my crawly Mite, though. EDIT: Got my Inquisitor to T3. Phew!

I've begun playing around with the BoT Simulator on Google Sheets. I am have hellâs own fun trying to do anything with the bot simulator - which is to say, Iâm having NO fun at all: I can edit it in place, apparently, but every attempt to open it locally, save it, download it - all fail. Having been a Mac/iOS user for a long time, Iâm fairly accustomed to having other peopleâs 「dookie」 (google) not work except in the most ridiculous fashion imaginable. Have you, or anyone else here, managed to download the simulator and open it locally? If so, Iâd really appreciate it if you can tell what WILL work - or, just tell me it wonât and Iâll stop trying. Thanks in advance for *ANY* assistance at all

I haven’t actually been around much the last day or so - much moving around to do

Thanks in advance for *ANY* assistance at all I don't have a computer atm but I used to use a Mac too. I most definitely hear you. On my iPhone, in Google Sheets I can use the Share & export menu to "Make a copy" which seems to make a local copy inside the app. I can also export to Microsoft Excel and use the spreadsheet in the Microsoft Excel app.

I’ll just do without: if there’s a way to get a copy of the thing on my Pad and open it in Sheets (Or anything else, I can’t find it.
This from someone who has designed and implemented complex systems, and written detailed documentation for existing systems that had not even a file format (Nor even a description) to start with. On top of everything else, this is a frustration I do not need...even if I were being paid to do it.
Thank you for responding, Parfait. I appreciate it.
I hope it’s been a good week for everyone

I feel like I can play this game a few matches and be satisfied where as in War Robots I feel like an addicted need to keep grinding all day.

Itâs all I can do to play three matches in War Robots...I donât even care about whether I win - I care about whether i get to *play*...and it seems I canât field a hangar that can accomplish anything beyond boosting Red teamâ.s stats.
@200+ matches In BoT, Iâm winning just barely over 50%...and Iâm fine with that...Iâm fine with less. T3 gear can take me out pretty fast, but I still get damage in, still get a kill or 2 (or 3), still have an enjoyable game. Half the games I get in War Robots, Iâm reluctant to submit to the bull「dookie」 swarm of murder hornets that start every game.
Speaking of which, it must be time to see if I feel like playing

Same, the lag in War Robots has reached new levels. I hate the "needing to play" addiction too.

I’m liking this lineup. Open with light mao all reinforced ammo. Pretty agile, hits everything hard. Then I drop the heavy heat mangler nelly to brawl and kill sting bots. Been playing around with last spot. I tried corm but it’s too weak at low levels. Prob eventually switch to 2 lights but this ravager setup seems decent against everything for a last drop, can kite tirps, cleanup lights, out-maneuver other sting builds, I got heavy apfs on it so I can stay at like 400 and kill a brawler build.

I'm triggered by that Ravanger. That's the best brawler Titan in the game. While I love seeing alt builds it hurts a litte to see it without Manglers and Hammer. I'm thinking about picking up the cash gun for the medium spot on mine but I love the Hammer up there. Nothing like poking your head Hammer over a building and finishing off that red while your Manglers reload. Go ahead and flee. I can hit you out to 500m.
Question: how do I make the turret speed faster? I had some mites running around my mite that could turn the camera much more quickly than I could. I was desperately pawing at the screen tiring to get a bead on a red Mite that had me dead to rights. It was like their turret/camera movement speed was way higher. Is it a setting thing or a level or equipment thing?
Also are there different turret speeds to different titans? The original Walking War Robots devs made it so the light bot had a much faster turret speed than a Natasha to give them an edge in a knife fight against a big heavy. If these are the original devs from Walking War Robots then is there a similar feature in BoT? I don't really see it. My Mite maybe turns slightly faster than my big clumsy MAO

Turret / rotational speed is definitely a thing, foxypotato. But I don't know much about it yet. I experienced my bots being helplessly circled too. Not sure if the slow rotation speed makes it possible to circle a bot faster than they can turn. Bully is supposedly getting a buff to their rotation speed next update.
