Great video, keep it up! And yeah I've always hated the fact that no Homing spiders or Hailfires really appear in the Clone Wars, the og Clone Wars had plenty of both. And we really only got to see the Octupara and Tank Droids in the Clone Wars movie itself
70k for a slow piece of junk thats tall like a house. :x I wish they make a Version 2.0 for the second half of the Clone Wars. Maybe with a own Shield or so.
Lol yeah for sure. But like a cop may fear an AK because that's what's used more than some other stronger weapon that is scarier but rarer. But we're gonna redo our video on the scorpinek too
JarJar was balance to the Force. Without him, the Clones would not have survived against the horde of droids. As JarJar racked up some kill assists with the Droid Army destroying itself and hitting those sweet sweet negative numbers. That caused a Republic Victory!
It would be cool if you could play as these in the new Battlefront 2 on geonosis for galactic assault. It would work as the opposite of the at te. You would have to use it’s concealed ion cannon to lower the shields on the walkers (sort of like how it works with mtts and ion disrupters on kashyyyk). The at tes would then be open to damage on all sides, not just the undercarriage (although shooting it would deal extra damage). The at te’s health would have to be lowered for balancing though.
Second comment I just realized, we never saw hailfire droids or OG-9 during the clone wars not even once *edit* Made this comment before Meta did in the video
These things in republic at war are another nightmare machine for me, they just have too much health...of course I was throwing regular clones at them so...perhaps that was the problem.
I'd think of the walker as something akin to a unit in strategy games functioning in reality. They have very little autonomy, and operaters tell them where to go, and what to shoot at.
“Spider Droid, Spider Droid, does whatever a spider does. Shoots a Laser any time, kills civilians just like flies. LOOOOK OUUUUUTTT Here comes a Spider Droid.”
Kinda funny to notice in a lot of the Movie Images, that there is a graphical glitch on the legs, the twin struts extending from the body, some times detach and float away from the upright portion of the legs. You can see the sloppy modeling very clearly at 6:17 of this video where the leg in front and to the right, is detached at the bottom strut, and the same goes with the leg on the left rear of the shot as well. Given this problem with the model, the leg that is front left on the screen is also detached at the bottom strut, but you can see the lack of texture aka see-thru nature of that part of the model. It was the same in other earlier movie shots of the droid and now its all I can see, like the Storm Trooper hitting his head in A New Hope.
These droids were a common sight in Star Wars: The Clone Wars video game. I agree with you that it sucks that neither these nor the Hail-fires were in the Clone Wars CGI TV show.
I think you forget the scene in episode 2 when the jedis are flying to the battle and get fired upon. Those were the spider droids that were acting like Anti-Air Vehicles. I could be wrong but thats probably why there are conflicting information about this droid.
@@MetaNerdzLore th-cam.com/video/W7oFYfxWsFg/w-d-xo.html You can see around min 0:25 how the droids fire at the gunships as they fly over, later at 0:27 you get a close up on all the spider droids. Later at 0:42 the said clip where the republic gunships get shot at by the Spiders and one goes down.
Watching this January 8th 2021 and thinking that that's the only way that we're going to take back America is embarking on a Star wars type life in our own lives
Honestly why did the jedi go troop to troop with the separatists like srsly the separatists will basically never loose war exhaustion and in parade formation a droid is equal to a clone trooper Edit: if the droids had trillions they would easily destroy the clones within seconds like a few million isn't enough for a galactic war
I'd rather see them like the AT-AP, a comparably light vehicle mostly made for firepower. Imo there is no real CIS equivalent of the AT-TE, as the only transport/tank thing they really have would probably be the MTT and let's face it: they're nothing alike
Wouldn't it be more practical if the big laser was at the bottom, so that the laser has a smaller angle when it hits the ground, thus having a bigger area of effect?
Aka the thing that kills you in BFII because you thought it was a background set piece
Can the dwarf spider droids do that too?
@@forky1686 Sadly no
Does it really kill?? I always thought It just shoots randomly

It could join the track team with the AT-AT.

The speeds for walkers are really funky in star wars
@@bluexdalek1997 I'm getting Monty Python running sequence vibes from this.
It probably doesn't actually run, it just lengthens the distance of each of it's strides.
It's like a robotic version of the daddy long legs

Man-At-Legs?
That shoots lasers
At first I didn't really like it but then I heard it tried to kill jar jar
Too bad it didn't succeed
It would be terrifying to see that thing coming at you at 50mph
I'm surprised we haven't seen any of them in Clone Wars..
Where are the toilets in star wars' ships (i won't stop try 'till you make a vid about it)

I mean, it's fast if you compare it to humans.
Here is something, the Hailfire droid was also originally for debt collection, for the Muuns
so it used rocket platforms on wheels for debt collection
What's the background music in this video called?
Yall really calling the Ball Walker her a feared vehicle. The Scorpinek is probably the holder of that title
Lol yeah for sure. But like a cop may fear an AK because that's what's used more than some other stronger weapon that is scarier but rarer. But we're gonna redo our video on the scorpinek too
IN battlefront 2 2017 they HURT i always pilot the AT-TE if you don't destroy them first they shred through your armor. all in all great video

Thank god the IRS don't have those.
The Vykker's Conglomerate would love this, it's like their own Snoozer tripod robots, but made for war instead of medical use
2:30-2:46
Please do the T-70 next I absolutely love that ship!
I really like this cleaner format compared to your first videos, keep going with the nice videos :)
Now what about the LAAT
It deserves another video to
One of my favorite clone wars ships
I’m due appointment we didn’t see more of them in the Clone Wars 2008.
In the old SWBF2 you can take out the gunner on the ATTE with this thing very easily :P
Second comment
I just realized, we never saw hailfire droids or OG-9 during the clone wars not even once

Made this comment before Meta did in the video
Hey. Look on the bright side! Mabey it will appear in the Clone Wars Season 7! Mabey the Hailfire too!
These things in republic at war are another nightmare machine for me, they just have too much health...of course I was throwing regular clones at them so...perhaps that was the problem.
Clone trooper: "those spider walkers are tearing us to ribbons."
I hope we see this in Season 7 of TCW
I'd think of the walker as something akin to a unit in strategy games functioning in reality. They have very little autonomy, and operaters tell them where to go, and what to shoot at.
What we have in Battlefront:
*AAT*
*MTT*
What we want in Battlefront:
*Hailfire Droid*
*OG-9 Homing Spider Droid*
Yes, old is superior.
And yet another case of "legs on combat vehicles are dumb and bad".

7 is smaller drawf.
I wish they made them enteredble in Star Wars battle front 2.

Ah the....OG OG-9.

Those miniguns placed on there look like the miniguns from Fallout 4.
"Whip out its concealed laser cannon"
Nice background music. What's the name of it?
Also regarding your last comment take a look at 0:20 a Homing Spider behind the one in front actually shoots through its legs!
Nice vid
Was there actually friendly fire between b1 battle droids in geonosis?
kennynito 34 since they were all behind each other, certainly
Pay your fucking taxes
no one must have depts because anyone who had depts would have been vaporized by the hailfire or spider droid
All hail jar jar are true Sith Lord.
I've never understood why they're called "Homing-Laser" Spider droid.
A Laser cannot home in on a target the same way a missile could.
The design had to have been influenced by the robot spider in Jonny Quest (The Robot Spy Episode #8 1964).
The legs don't seem properly attached in the pictures of EA's model
I love the eyeball spider robot. It's such a mainstay in every sci-fi story.
Watching this January 8th 2021 and thinking that that's the only way that we're going to take back America is embarking on a Star wars type life in our own lives
56mph??? Jesus fucking christ thatd be terrifying seeing a giant laser spider coming at you at highway speed.
Honestly why did the jedi go troop to troop with the separatists like srsly the separatists will basically never loose war exhaustion and in parade formation a droid is equal to a clone trooper
Edit: if the droids had trillions they would easily destroy the clones within seconds like a few million isn't enough for a galactic war
Are they housebroken? Nothing messes up your front lines than when your giant quadruped isn't properly trained.
It actually is probably a better design because the body is lower than the legs
These guys were fun to fight in the 2002 Clone Wars game
Hell yeah. To bad everyone forgets about that game...
Dear lord a giant spider with a huge lazer all cuz you don't pay them there money don't fuck with them
I'd rather see them like the AT-AP, a comparably light vehicle mostly made for firepower. Imo there is no real CIS equivalent of the AT-TE, as the only transport/tank thing they really have would probably be the MTT and let's face it: they're nothing alike
Oh man, new aquatic droid tactics! These things can work underwater?!?
I hope you do about Tactical Droid because your Old Video Can't Watch
This thing moving at 90 kph must've looked like Qwop.
oof, back it again with the ridiculous speed stats. Does it start galloping at top speed?
Only if the cis added arms it would be northstar from titanfall
The giant spider robot with two slow firing turrets is antipersonnel unit, Really?
Who of you guys wished that some of the battle droids could appear at the new trilogy?
Lol 56mph? Nah mabe 20mph definitely not 50+.

I wished once that the og9 appeared once more in combat at Kashyyyk
Is it just me or do Dwarf Spidee Droids look kinda cute.
I remembered how much i hate these droids when the first battle of Geonosis begin
Who hoped that we would see these spider droids in the clone wars series. I was one of them.
Could you Cover the Trade Federation Single Trooper Aerial Platform (STAP)?
Wouldn't it be more practical if the big laser was at the bottom, so that the laser has a smaller angle when it hits the ground, thus having a bigger area of effect?
I noticed those mini guns when talking on the subject of attachment weapons, you used the FO4 mini guns
In battlefront1 2004 the Spider droid was like 2x the size of the hailfire.
I'm angry that so much shit is going on in my life that I didn't notice metanerds was unbelled.
