Korea (Season 2)

[@kalebjacobsen9411]

I started following Megabots for the giant robots. Now I stick around because you're a legitimately cool dude. Thank you for letting us follow the process, good luck!

[@TheAnon26]

I honestly like the vlog format way more. Season one was too forced, too fake. Vlogs seem a bit more real.

[@ajcubed2527]

I really enjoy the vlogs as well

[@mikesavio66]

All of this is leading to the future of sports entertainment! Obviously it's going to be a while and take a lot of convincing before it catches the attention of the right people. But someone WILL see the potential in this, and it WILL become a global phenomenon, bigger than that of WWE. I'm extremely excited to be alive to see it grow in it's humble beginnings and to see what it will become in the future!

[@thegreenguy8837]

[@015AEX]

Hopefully it’s not like the first fight

[@mikesavio66]

@@015AEX Even they didn't want the first fight to be like how it was. Now, if they incorporated WWE styled storylines and promos into it, whilst keeping the actual fights genuine and real, I'd be all for that.

[@grimlockgabe2938]

Ditto

[@jakeschindler1762]

Michael Savio you said exactly what I’ve been thinking for a while, it’s going to be cool to be seeing this and in the future be able to say, “I was alive to see this big sport start out and see it’s struggle to become what it is today.” Those will be amazing times when we get to finally see something like this fully form.

I missed all these update videos. I'm only just watching them now that it's all over...But just because it's over for MegaBots, doesn't mean there's no hope for giant robot fighting. On the contrary, it looks like they've sparked a lot of interest around the world in the prospect of a giant robot fighting sport.

@@GoGunCo Just throwing out a stupid idea; how about instead of reaching for Elon Musk directly you go to SpaceX.

[@twstf8905]

You need to show up in the convention circuit. Like, San Diego ComicCon, Dragon Con, NYCC, and Star Wars Celebration, (which is in Chicago in 2019.) I think, if you paired up with a major tech convention organization, or Sci-fi/Fantasy creativity production, like Lucasfilm, or Disney/Marvel, even by just starting out with completely out of the blue appearances at their major fan events, you'll gain more widespread recognition amongst the consumer base that occupies your particular demographic, as opposed to limiting your company's exposure to the, "Discovery channel," audience. Your videos are already recommended to me whenever I watch the official, "Star Wars," KZbin channel. And any content that falls within the, "engineering," and, "computer graphics," universe. If the KZbin algorithm knows where your creativity belongs, perhaps it's not too much of a stretch to imagine gaining some financial and industry momentum by attaching your brand to the same demographic outside the social media landscape as well. Anyway, I'm glad you're back, even if it is tentatively at first, and I know that the more people learn about what you're doing, the more success you'll inevitably generate for yourself. Because the number of people who grew up imagining a future filled with giant, fighting robots grows larger by the day!

[@Jinsoku440]

Best of luck to you! Going to keep watching and sharing until I can buy tickets to the shows!

[@robstar020]

Excited to see the results of this project over the next few years. Even just adjusting people to get used to big mechs is a start

They're broke and it's just this guy left trying to find people to give him money so he can have more giant robot fights. Meanwhile he's doing the occasional show where one of the robots destroys some things at a lowered speed for safety.

[@obadel5092]

They're broke what few of the robot's maker dosent want to risk the robot's they made after the beatdown in Japan they saw that's it was for real simply no one wanted to lose the robot suit to this American who made a private machine of destruction not for looks for real bad ass kicking so they're alone

Hey Matt, How did you like South Korea? I lived there for two years while I was in the Air Force, and really loved it. Also, do you happen to have any merch left? I'm interested in getting another shirt. Also, any chance we could see your panel from the convention?

[@timbarrett4580]

Have you guys thought of setting up more obstacle courses or like technical challenges? Just to show Eagle prime in action and maybe give some pilots more experience now that it's built. Love the tenacity man, still rooting for you guys!

[@Aodhan45]

After you do the obstacle course, you can have a dance competition, maybe even with Kuratas, it would be much cheaper and could be done asynchronously.

[@FatLouSC]

Gain credibility by getting the humans out of the robots and ditching the WWE style scripted spectacle. Then figure out a balance between robot size/complexity and the purse itself to justify the time and expensive of building the bots. Battlebots, Robot Wars and other successful robot combat venues have paved the way for this.

[@shadowsinvortex7990]

I wish we had a team here in the UK to compete... want to see more very badly! How many hours do your robot operators spend training? Any chance of seeing them in practise?

[@GoGunCo]

The pilots only train when someone is paying us to operate the robots. It's just too expensive to run them otherwise! Maybe around 3 hours a month. You can see them in person by booking some time piloting one. www.megabots.com/book

[@jrock344]

MegaBots Inc I don't know if you would go for this but if you picked up a military contract or a construction contract for your bots that would more than give you a large amount of jump start money. I know its alot easier said than done but i could see eagle tearing down a building or the cannon firing grenades and instead of a saw a minigun. I say this only because i love the channel and want to see this be as big as it can possibly get and the main issue sadly is always money.

[@cogwheel6076]

Dude you guys should totally rent out eagle prime or the little iron bro to events That might be a good way to make money and spread the word that giant fighting robots are a thing that you can go and watch break shit. Also a recommendation for battles. Have the mechs aim for limbs, If you break off both arms or immobilize the bot you win that round. This way you can use destructive weapons more readily as your no longer aiming for the cockpit or nearby areas, An effective strat might be to equip the paint cannon and the drill. Then you can blind and break a limb off by aiming for shoulders,
