I found this game this weekend. Seriously the best game I have ever played. If you like legos, this will be like crack. You build a robot from blocks and fight with it. If anyone gets on there, my name is mattbob1294.

I found a game similar to this on steam. It was still early access so it was rough but not bad.

Yup, it sure is fun. I just can't devote enough time to build what I want.

I've been playing for a while, and yes, it's excellent!! I think my name is FeralSlug, but I haven't been on in a few weeks so I can't remember. :P

this game is on steam! and it is a real early release. It might be the same game.

It is such a time sink. I played for 8 hours straight on saturday. I never play games for that long. I usually get bored after an hour.

Ahh Robocraft, I loved you for maybe a month, then moved on. Then again it was still in alpha at the time, maybe it's better now.

they could use more game modes, but they way how you build your robot drastically affects game play is why I love it. I have rebuilt my robot from scratch so many times it is insane.

Yeah, you spend ages rebuilding and refining something awesome, and then, at least in my case, get constantly blown up by ramped bricks with railguns. Man it was fun for a little while tho.

I figured out the key is redundancy. My robot can still drive and shoot a little if it gets most of it blown away. I spent forever making little tweaks to make it more probable that I will have guns and reliable steering left over if my hover blades are blown away.

Hehe, my favorites to build are true (non helium, non hover) aircraft...course, they are extremely fragile, and hard to make work to begin with. But man can they kill the hell out of something with plasma bombs.

Is it kind of like halo/COD multiplayer but with robots/cars you build?

I built one of those the other day. I found if I made it real long, the flying gets way easier, and you can just load up the plasma on the bottom. Only problem is when someone breaks the plane in half.

its way more customizable than either of those games. It can actually be tricky to build a robot that functions well to begin with, let alone functions when half of it is blown away. I was really into legos as a kid and am an engineer now, and this is the most addictive game I have ever played, if that kind of gives you an idea of the way it is geared.

In this one, you can make planes and hovercraft if you can figure out how to make them fly and balance them right.

I meant as gameplay. 2 teams duke it out until no one left or capture base. After reading other comments I'm pretty sure it's the same game. It was fun. It looks like they've updated a bunch. It looks like they added colors too. When I played all the robots were grey with light blue accents

If that's not me, I'll add you as soon as I get back in there. My current addiction is The Sims 3, though, so who knows when that will end.
