Forum:Reboot Series 2

With a possible Series 2 coming some day in the future what do you want to see happen after watching the 2016 Series? What changes should be made and any robots you want to see return or enter.

Changes/Improvements
 * Refbot - Of all the House robots that should return is Refbot. Throughout 2016 it was unclear if a robot was knock immobile or not (e.g. Beast/Eruption/PP3D) and of course the likeliness of a fire occurring one in a while. I understand that there may be some concerns due to the arena shape and size but I'm sure they can fit him in or even make him a drone :P
 * SGT Bash and maybe another house robot? - Metorn or BBC (don't remember which one) sent a tweet out claiming that SGT Bash may return of a second series but the question is will there be another House Robot? Personally I wouldn't mind seeing Growler again and to be honest Mr Psycho could be useful in this type of arena.
 * Battle music - I'm pretty sure almost everyone wants battle music, though I was quite oblivios to it I will admit it does gets the energy going and sets the atmosphere for the battle.
 * Removal of spikes - The Spikes were absolutely useless! The flame pit fried moters and batterys, the pit doomed many, the flipper chucked competitors about, the spikes? They did nothing! Hopefully they'll ether be made to shoot out faster or be replaced by something more useful (even the disc of doom was more useful!)
 * JP's mic - Was it just me or was JP's mic quite quiet? Maybe a better mic could do?
 * Removal of the "technological advancement sections" - Yes it'd interesting but it somewhat awkward to have in a show like this. One moment a robot has just demolished another and then the next "let's talk about animatronic dinosaurs!" I noticed online that quite a few people are turned off by this simply because it's boring but I don't find it boring just unneeded.
 * More longer - Obviously this being a first series six episodes are understandable but for next year (if there is a next year) hopefully we'll get back to the usual Series 4/6/7 format.
 * Active weapon policy abolished - So Chimera, Gabrial and Nuts were allowed in and let's be honest now they thwackbots like Stinger and don't give the argument that "Oh but Nuts that that ring!" That's not really a weapon now is it? This rule was pretty absent from this series and honestly it really needs to go, even Battlebots fans hate this rule!

 * Grand Finalists - Pretty much a given that they will return with better machines or successors who will live up to their full potential.
 * Tornado and Hypno-Disc - Both teams said if there's a series two they'll enter and I really hope they bring in hugely improved machines that can do just as well as before.
 * Diotoir, Gravity, Dystopia and Turbulence - These four F2Q machines would be brilliant to see in a second series and certainly would bring in more of the entertainment value for the show and was an absolute shame that they F2Q while others were allowed in!
 * Razer - Now I did read that the Razer team mainly wanted to concentrate on Battlebots and Robot Wars was merely for fun but that unfortunate incident in round one would be a sad way to go. I hope they return if there's a second series I hope they return and this time get past round one!
 * Chimera 2 and Foxic 2 - I didn't like ether of these robots, one was cannon fodder and the other should have lost in round 1 with it's awful performance. That said I've seen pictures of Chimera and Foxic with far greater improvements, hopefully they will put up a better performance rather than be a inanimate object in the arena.
 * New competitors (Not including Live Events) - A new face is always nice and seeing that machines like Pulsar could make such goo impacts on their first run it would be nice to see some more.
 * More veterans - Now that it was brought back to our screens, hopefully some of the old veterans have seen it and are ready to come back, whether it be a new machine or an improved version of their old ones. Who knows we could see a new Atomic or Panic Attack?
 * Second chance robots - Crazy Coupe 88, Beast and Ironside were robots I had hopes for to do well, one dropped out in round 1, one lose all their round two battles and the other was deeply unlucky after dominating most of the episode. I hope they return with better machines and maybe a new machine and hopefully they can do well.
