I haven't seen many people speak of this issue, I suppose it could be chalked up to the lack of people that own a Butch, but any Butch user would have noticed this big glaring obvious issue, I've tried twice to send in a bug report on the problem, to no avail, Pix doesn't listen.
The problem being the Butch has absolutely dreadful traction issues when trying to walk on any angled surface, no matter how steep, even if it's unnoticable, the issue has existed for as long as it's been around and yet it persists, it causes you to get stuck trying to walk, you'll begin to slide slowly, sometimes so slow it's as if you aren't moving, it's only really not much of an issue on power plant since the ground is mostly flat and near impossible to get anywhere you're going quickly on Yamantau...
Not sure if this counts as a rant technically but this pisses me off that Pix doesn't listen when I report this.
Edit: If anyone is also having this issue and can get it on video, don't hesitate to post it.

They only slide on Yam if you're trying to make them slide most of the time, I can walk wherever the hell I want in Yam with my Fury with no issues with sliding, this is a Butch specific sliding issue, I simply mentioned Yamantau because it's the best place to experience the Butch sliding bug. |

My Griffin slides a lot in Yamateau. It's not just Furies and Butch.

Do you HAVE a Butch? Have you ever used it? The fact that you fail to understand tells me you don't have one.
I'm not a 「fluffernutter」ing moron, you insult my intelligence by trying to come up with arguments to invalidate my complaint, Butch HAS A REAL PROBLEM, ITS NOT JUST ON YAMANTAU, I swear to 「fluffernutter」ing god everyone assumes it's just a 「slow」 yamantau sliding complaint, IT HAPPENS ON EVERY MAP.

And if that's not an option? Also would a computer be required for posting said video? Because my computer is also toast, got smashed in a wreck...

I'll take the OP at face value, but talk about overreacting to someone making a valid point about other bots sliding on Yama....

Hmm....I understand you are seeking help, but you are not coming off well as it seems like you are wound a little tight. Please try to understand we are trying to help....we only have our experiences and for many that does not include the Butch. I get that your Butch may be sliding, but I've only used butch on the test server and didn't notice anything so I'm trying to understand the sliding. Is it similar to the sliding that many of us experience on Yama? Or does the butch slide while standing still? I know only 1-2 who run a butch but I don't recall them mentioning that issue..they are more disappointed by the low health. hope you get your issues resolved. |

It's not an issue unique to Yamantau, when I say slide I do mean as if it were a steep incline, but it slides on really any incline even if it's not steep, it can and will happen on any map, I'm familiar with sliding in some very specific places on Yam but those have never been an issue and have never bothered me, none of my other bots ever have any issues with sliding, I don't know if it's platform specific as I only play iOS. |

This is not the official Pixonic help forum so people here volunteer when we help each other out, so try to be a bit more civil--saying you have a short fuse is no excuse.
I guess it could be platform-specific but a lot of people here are on iOS. Myself I experience most of the sliding on Yama with heavy bots--esp the Fury. Happens, though not as often, on other maps like Dead City.
If you want help then install an app called AZ Screen Recorder--it's one of the easiest ways to record a game. Post it and we can have a look.

I've been lurking about the forums just reading every day for about a year or so, still not quite sure it was changed to ProBoards old one seemed fine to me! But that's beside the point, I'm not at liberty to be offended that the first reply to my first post on the forums was more or less telling me that I'm wrong? And then I tried to explain to them that they didn't understand what I was complaining about and they tell me I'm wrong for a second time? My welcome to the forum wasn't exactly what you'd call warm, I'm not trying to directly insult anyone and I would not wish this to turn into an attack against me as it seems it's going that way.
I'll look into this screen recording software you speak of and see if I can get a video to better show this issue, because my words don't do it justice, clearly.

That or, I can't find this app you speak of anywhere, if it's there, could you provide a link? |

You're right, my apologies.
For iOS try:
Airshou
BB Rec
Vidyo
I believe they're all free. I'm sure other iOS users here have other options.

Can't get AirShou to work, it doesn't seem to save recordings or anything, it only comes up with the "Broadcasting" and doesn't seem to record at all, I've tried to search for help or to see if it's a known issue to no avail, so for now I guess I have no video to show the issue...
If anyone else has a Butch and is aware of the problem and are able to record it, it would he helpful for the case to getting it fixed if you could post a recording.

I'll look into this screen recording software you speak of and see if I can get a video to better show this issue, because my words don't do it justice, clearly. I understand what you are saying about wanting to have had a better reception on the forum, but as others have said we are all here willingly to try and share info and problem solve. Some posters just only take their experience as gospel truth so clearly you must be wrong.....not everyone is that way. So no attack on your request, it is just that sometimes you have to explain the issue a bit and have people post what they think you are talking about. I know I've experienced some issues with aphids and was told by a number of folks that what I experienced couldn't be right....only a few others noticed a change in trajectory same as me. Later pix came out and said they nerfed some aspects of the aphid....just please ignore the posts that clearly miss the mark or clarify the issue So those who are trying to help can help you. When you go on the attack, then those who may want to help pass it up as many of us don't want to get into online warfare as it is fruitless - and those who love online warfare usually aren't that helpful. i can't help you out as I haven't run into your situation...sorry. cheers....and welcome to posting on the forums. |

Ferro Magnus Butch wears rollerskates at all times. At least... sounds like yours does. And I know mine does. I'd guess not platform specific on account of me bein Android. I don't do video so I can't help ya there. But I can confirm your suspicion that Butch slides everywhere. Much worse than other heavies I've used. And Yamantau is a nightmare. Even on the 'metal' ramps. Oh. And welcome to the Thunderdome.

I generally find that when you change direction, to let go of the control and push again in the direction you want. It is irritating though especially when under fire. In the same spots with different bots, Griff / Galahad, and don't have the same problem.
