Robocraft 2 - The Return Of My Favorite PvP Vehicle Battler? Demo Gameplay!

[@Robocraft2Game]

Thank you so much for playing the game! Love seeing all the nostalgic comments here! I hope everyone has fun with the game at this stage of development. We have a bunch of awesome things planned for the future!

[@aintgotnoname]

Finally we see the most nostalgic pvp game in it's new fresh paint

[@BrokenSet]

Still waiting on your overbearing monetization plans.

[@CLAPNUGGETSdani]

Hey, I'm really hyped for this game, but I only have an xbox. Do you plan on porting it after launch

[@elvisdepressly6965]

I beg one day we get legacy servers of robocraft 1 so we can play older versions

[@theeunseen8820]

Will we see more skins and cosmetics (specifically armour skins) able to unlock with free currency or are we doomed to hand over credit cards?

[@Talon1124]

I remember finding you via Robocraft. Nostalgia at 20000% and rising.

[@robthehobbit]

Me too :)

[@Leeshka7]

Found via Robocraft, stayed for From the Depths :D

[@keklord9878]

Ohh yea, Im 22 now and I was a Kid when I found him, god damn I love him and the old Robocraft, I hope this game can bring back some of those feelings

[@ptsg]

Robocraft and From the Depths. Both series are active again!

[@vento4506]

I'm almost teary, rn haven't seen this one in a while, all those memories: man i laughed so much when the four fine fellows were a thing

[@benjaminnielsen3475]

I too found the Joy of laughter with watching Robocraft

[@remor698]

And I now have a new series of old videos to binge through, cause that group name somehow doesn't ring a bell, but that combination of people paired with the good times of RC 1 is just guaranteed to be enjoyable.

[@frankfort332]

I played robocraft so much when i was in middle school. Such a huge part of my childhood, definitely checking this out when i can

[@maxbarison3023]

Same, I almost forgot about it so I’m glad it’s back

[@Toodyslexicforyou]

Me too I’m so glad it’s come back dream come true

[@dembi2770]

glad its back, gonna enjoy it until they start adding mind numbing monetisations

[@SirKolass]

They didn't learn from robocraft 1, now this game is dead.

[@dronox2010]

15:40 "Isn't that right, sirs and sirrettes" My heart... Robocraft 1 remains my most-played game, even if I haven't touched it in 4 years - and I got into it due to you and Aavak. To see you collab again would be a dream come true.

[@Accuaro]

Nothing beats early early Roborcraft, that was peak Robocraft The Robocraft where I would see giant Mikus with cannons for arms, the Robocraft where it wasn't just a sweat fest, but also artistic expression. Silly builds not meant to win, but to have a laugh.

[@RandomBlackBox]

I remember my annoying healer flyer spider crab. Ah i was hated soooo much and just healed people from the brink of death. There was no regen and a good healer was a make or break for the team.

[@Accuaro]

@@RandomBlackBox I was the ultimate asshole. Idk if you're familiar with a satellite robocraft, but it was 2 1x1 blocks stacked on top of each other, 4 small low tier thruster/booster on each side, 1 medium-high tier laser gun hanging on the bottom, and the seat for the dude to sit on the top. So what would happen is that you would launch straight to the top of the skybox and hover there, you couldn't control where you would go but you could mostly see everything. Where the satellite robocraft would take you allowed you to rain down hell on people bellow. You could snipe them and kill them very fast because you sacrificed most of your build for the weapon, so the game would put you in lowish tier games. It was beautiful.

[@piginasuit6323]

I miss the old lootbox system

[@danyael777]

I remember having to earn coins to be able to repair. Sometimes i had to sell blocks to be able to keep playing.^^

[@OthiOthi]

Those were the days man

[@Kire2oo2]

My god, never expected to see robocraft again, so much nostalgia

[@ctsquad501st3]

[@Driver2806]

I do wish this series to continue, had a good bit of fun just building the last few days, it does feel like it could turn out to be an amazing game in its future development.

[@umbratherios5614]

This is an absolute nostalgia trip, I cant wait... I hope the devs dont fork up the game like they did with Robocraft 1

[@vhaelen326]

is it just me or is the scaling in building MUCH different? it seems they decreasd the size of your normal block by about half ish, which is great because it means you can get smaller details

[@aendranireho6038]

Yeah, the building system is quite different Base blocks are much smaller but can be scaled and combined for details easily Details can look amazing but it takes forever There is also the possibility to modify characteristics of action blocks (braking power of wheel, thrust of a thruster, firing time offset of a gun,...) And now you can build your own turrets ! Which super neat (if a little janky initially)

[@onceuponaban]

Absolutely. Those who played Techblox (and I presume Robocraft 2 is actually picking up where Techblox left off under the hood) will feel right at home with this iteration of the building system.

[@iwansays]

​@@aendranireho6038 But what about the pilot seat? If it's always that big, then everything will mostly look like oversized old T1 bots.

[@aendranireho6038]

@@iwansays I have no way to answer that with any certainty; the game is in very early development and the dev are really into looking at player feedback (the official discord is very active) I think they went for something different in terms of size scaling, which isn't necessarily a bad thing and is likely linked to performance It's also worth noting that weight is VERY important this time around. You can make a slumbering tank that can't climb a slope or a speedy car that won't take a hit. So more blocks doesn't mean better vehicle anymore

[@iwansays]

@@aendranireho6038 Weird. Iirc, they scrapped mega because of performance issues or something. But now, PCs have more computing powers. Performance shouldn't be an issue anymore even if they use the old blocks' system. Weight was also a thing back then. They were important for fast-moving bots. But it was still possible to make tanks. Some movement parts have huge carrying capacity to allow that. It makes sense because they mostly can't do anything but tanking damage. What I'm guessing is they likely won't reduce pilot seat's size if they decide to keep the ability to let pilots out of vehicles. In combination with everything else, this will only limit players' creativity.

[@Citadel03]

I'm so glad to see this come back. I remember finding you on the original oh so long ago.

[@AshtynKC]

Same

[@MaleniaLi]

YESSSS ITS BACK AND MORE IMPORTANTLY, THE CRYSTALS ARE BACK. Shooting the crystals to capture points was genuinely my favourite mechanic of the game, so happy to see its return

[@maddog2314]

I'm really glad they rotate now. That used to be one of the most frustrating things.

[@SirKolass]

Dead game, they couldn't learn from the first game apparently.

[@thomasthepanzerkampfwageni2586]

I cannot physically explain how much joy I felt seeing this in my recommended. Robocraft is one of the games that has massively influenced my life. The flood of memories from my childhood that went through my head of me waking up excited to see that Lathland had uploaded a new Robocraft video. Edit: I started crying at 15:40. It's been so long man

[@Onkelcuno]

Given how Robocraft 1 had very many things locked behind a paybarrier, i'd love a non-sponsored video where you check out how far you can get without money. i'd also love to see you try flyers and hovercraft. you got me into robocraft years ago, and also kinda from the depth. still playing from the depth xD

[@justxjoshin]

So that wasnt a test of our warning system here in the US. It was an announcement that Lathrix uploaded Robocraft. Glad that systeem is working.

[@ImAdonai]

oh my god please yes I still believe early Robocraft to be one of the best games I've ever played, I'm so hyped, nervous and giddy about Robotcraft 2 happening. So far it looks great, we've got the seats back with awesome addition of the actual pilot being a thing, and we've also got powered joints I remember them hyping up back in the day before they decided that their target audience should be 8 years old that have no patience for building. I really like how physics are looking so far, though I need to figure out how damage propagation works. I wasn't here back when you've been making Robotcraft videos, but I sure do hope to see your series on Robotcraft 2. Even this demo is just so much that ahhh

[@thomasmcsweeney7786]

It was actually a friend of mine who got me on this channel all those years ago. One time during a sleepover, we were watching KZbin and he put on Lathrix playing robocraft, and we just watched all those videos until we fell asleep. It’s great to see this back again, and I can’t wait to see more of it!

[@TrixterTheFemboy]

Robocraft is definitely a series I wish to see continued in the future :3

[@SuperExplosivegames]

I forgot that Robocraft is where I found you, wild blast of nostalgia...

[@draketurtle4169]

I’m glad you made this video. I remember watching your robocraft videos years ago and they were a big help and inspired me to make a lot of very fun and interesting designs. I actually grinded an account fron tier 1-10 back when we had different blocks for each tier.

[@ritzygore]

So glad to see Robocraft return, and hugely thankful that Freejam sponsored you in the last video, since I didn't even know the demo was out until you mentioned it! We'll be sure to watch their progress in finalizing the sequel to such an amazing game, and hopefully can provide useful feedback for them as needed. Wonderful work as always, Lathrix, and we would love to see this continued as a series in the future.

[@cleverhippo726]

HOLY CRAP! I was scrolling through my feed and saw this thinking "wow what episode was tha..... wait what?" Feels awesome seeing you back in robrocraft after so long. ❤

[@Wanderer4Hire]

I love the look of this game, also Lath make a From The Depths inspired vehicle, so that other people can be fooled that you're good at building and designing.

[@geoffreyentwistle8176]

I absolutely want to see more! I'm intrigued by the "build your own turret " unlock... Something about that brings FtD vibes.

[@giaxo1739]

I remember playing this game in middle school. So much fun! I built a floating fortress for my craft.

[@amazinggamer6002]

I remember when I played the first one tons of fun building was a bit off though can’t wait to build in this demo!

[@OfficialYondoth]

I really hope they listen to us this time round.

[@thealicemonster9217]

Lathrix, Thanks for putting this game up on your last video. I have played it a TON. With you getting your turret blown off so much remember that block size is your Hitpoints and block type is your Armour. So a large block made of heavy armour would be best for you to put your gun on. Also putting a ring cover around your turret base block (like you did) made of heavy armour would give just a couple of more hits before losing your turret base.

[@divedweller4295]

This is a series I missed in the past and look forward to seeing more of in the future.

[@Jakeducake8422]

as soon as my old robocraft clan heard about robocraft 2 we all started gathering again, its been so much fun catching up with them after the last few years and we are all so excited to play this game

Robocraft was the game that brought me to your channel years and years ago at this point. Hopefully we get to see a series on robocraft 2 in the future!!

Robocraft was my intro to your content, and I have really missed it since it went so far downhill. Very much excited to see what comes of the sequel!

[@kranik11]

Oh my. I think i started watching you when i saw you Robocraft videos. How the time flies!

[@heyitskae]

Like a LOT of people here, I started watching you in your Robocraft days. I remember the very first video of yours I EVER watched, which was Part 64, the Tier 10 Bomber. I love that video so much and have been a fan of this channel for nearly a decade since. Crazy to think, really.

[@eliteleon2212]

Robocraft 2 is definitively a series I wish to see continued in the future! This was quite the nostalgia trip.

[@Dragon8uk1]

I think Robocraft was some of the first videos i watched on your channel, excited to see it come back!

[@Dislexi-ya]

I was 11 or 12 when I started watching you play Robocraft. In November I’ll be the legal age to drink alcohol in the U.S. I feel so old, and I’m sorry for making you feel much older. Thank you for making content for so long and always making me laugh and smile. Absolute legend.

[@lonewolf9123]

I just want to say I remember subscribing to you watching your robo craft and from the depth videos.I was 15 years old when I started im now 24 what a throw back

[@propelledgaming9441]

Man I cant wait to see how the new game plays for myself robocraft was one of my favorite games growing up and some of these new changes look really interesting, so glad they brought back the crystals I always thought it was cooler / more unique than normal capture points.

Robocraft was the series that made me subscribe so many years ago. Seeing this video brings back so many memories!

[@kermiekruiser40]

I still remember playing the original robocraft in elementary school. My go to vehicle was a helicopter with a stealth module and railguns that could effectively snipe from across the map. The only issue was that if anyone with anti-air missiles saw me, they could kill me with one salvo.

[@rylanmiller6823]

The nostalgia and memories are strong I remember finding you very early on with the FTD videos but very shortly after finding four fine fellows and falling in love with the robocraft content still one of my favorite videos is the coffee cup of doom! Such good memories... That being said any chance of four fine fellows happening again

[@samwhite2734]

[@Jman116Films]

Seems promising. I really like the ability to summon your craft. I think the plasma is a step backwards. The Robocraft 1 plasma had such a meaty shot and sound design that this one just doesn’t replicate.

[@sunnyskies3969]

Ahahaha! Robocraft is back! I feel like I'm a teen watching old robocraft mayham! This is super nostalgic. Now I've got adult bs to worry about. But, for the duration of this video, I get to feel like a kid again.

OH GOD I REMEMBER FLANK one of my favorites had to have been the 5 sniper walker glider/flyer. idk why, just personally liked watching snipers go pewpew great to see robocraft again after like... 6ish years?? jeez.. been a long time since i first stumbled onto your plague inc and early robocraft vids

[@soulpanzer5855]

Personal tip: as a railgun or plasma craft, I like to get out of my craft to capture points. I sit one or two steps away from the base of the crystals and aim up with my rifle. Way faster than sitting there with a railgun for a while.

[@caboose5633]

God the nostalgia is real. All I could think about while watching this was my old railgun crawler and my big clunky plasma bomber. Man I hope they add those insect legs back in after the demo is finished. I'm gonna miss hanging off a wall and sniping someone's wheels off and then crawling away.

[@captaincrackhead904]

oml lath is playing robocraft 2 i absolutely loved you playing the first game, especially the big ass tanky plane, probably my favorite design ever.

[@fireblow6842]

man this made my remember my old carpet bomber. it was very makeshift because I didn't have the optimal parts but that's what made it so cool. just a plane with any type of plasma I had in my inventory strapped to it's belly and way too weak thrusters but there were lots of them. it had a somewhat long barrage of plasma and unleashing it on someone was the best feeling ever

[@ogbangerz3029]

i remember watching the original robocraft vids from you YEARS ago nostalgia goes crazy

[@-lijosu-]

Friendly neighborhood Robocraft 2 player here. I've got a tip: At the moment, your robocraft only has one simulated engine. Since this engine is more realistic than in the first game, the power of the engine is split up between all your wheels, which makes having less wheels faster. Having more wheels is mostly for redundancy. This might change in the future, but for now, that's how it works.

[@jeffmyname7277]

Bro this and from the depths is what got me into your vids I was in like 7th-8th grade I believe and I didn’t have a pc so it was just watching now I’m 21 have a kid and can finally play the games instead of just watch you play them can’t wait to start playing hopefully I get into a game with you
