Mech Warfare 2009

[mentalmetal1]

the mobility on these robots is pretty lousey. so bulky and slow compared to what the japanese build. these things are years behind on design and technology.

[Traconiz]

bah i thought they were autonomous. Still awesome

[robertwalters]

very, very cool.

[GangsterHutterite]

The one at 1:35 needs to be remade 10 times bigger. There! Mechwarrior for real!

[fatmanontherun]

The ancestor of future immense warmachine.I bet russians and americans secret services are creating them right now as we  are talking.

[palmisano]

@fatmanontherun I build robots for the US Navy, but unfortunately giant mechs aren't one of them =(

[TheStargateNerd]

@palmisano

Or so you tell us...

[Stealthmuffin]

so sick

[unit529]

Dear god... They probaly are already mass producing larger ones to take over the world.......

[3d834]

awesome! i want the one with the two guns and four legs

[rockdragon3]

ahaha yes, i see some Ring of Red models, i loved that game :)

[OllersFunnys]

i so wanna take part in this

[VicKwCrown]

Kudos for even building a functioning robot...how many people can say that...and replace the airsoft with a .45 and you got yourself a contract.

[ReZ2436]

It's like Terminator 2 Judgement day ! :)

[kght222]

make one with a turret and 8 directional movement with keyboard and mouse control, then you got something interesting

[Brandish728]

2:41 DUDE! That's cheating! You're only supposed to use the camera feed to see what you're shooting at! Like anyone's really going to stick their head outside of an armored chassis to see where their target went.

Yes I know mechs have windows to see out of but the pilots are a little bit too big to fit inside their robots. :)

[OllersFunnys]

amazing if they were automanus

[DMalenfant1]

next time use a real gun like a .45 cal, it will knock your robot on its ass when fired but will splat the competition and make crowd go holy shit that was cool.

[nooloo3000]

there so adorable (no homo)

[renasc]

Mech 2 soundtrack ... woohoo!

[KurtSam143]

i wannan learn how to make this :/

[SingularlyDatarific]

Just scale it up, and it will be the coolest sport on earth.

[OllersFunnys]

i agree

[Karuik2]

if only i could make a robot =/

[miataman89]

<3 mw2 soundtrack

[otmq]

the white one has a big mobility advantage, its too fast, for the dark one

[Aegis064]

they need more effective weaponry... lol, try simunitions, I would pay to watch fights like that!

[palmisano]

The first robot in the video has four rocket launchers. No joke. The issue was safety, so they weren't used at the event.

[Aegis064]

jesus christ! lol, understood... is it actually setup as an event? As in scoring and everything? How does that work? And all people would really need are paintball masks for simunitions, create a gun apparatus that shoots 9mm bullets and load in the rounds. They are glorified paintballs, really... :P

Weapons aside, this is VERY impressive... I love that they are controlled via laptops!

[palmisano]

See the links in the info box for rules, info, etc. This was the first competition (for hopefully many), so lots of bugs and details were still being worked out.

[rockymess]

so nice!!!

[fredgilman]

Ahh, I love that music.

[frogjedi4]

The MW2 soundtrack makes it even better.

[fighterlegend]

I always wanted to see this.

I love the creativity of some people!
