Here are my other Poly Bridge 2 videos: • Video - Hry
I recommend you watch Arglin's video to see how everyone else did:

What about Scott?
Try building a ‘Lofting body airplane’ i Think it could be a cool challenge
Cant wait for arglin
I wanna see the weighlift of scott, how can i do that?
@@gulmorte He has a temporary twitch vod I think, but I'll ask if he has a youtube link ready
Nice to see your incredible thought process on these, great job! I can't believe how no one else seemed to crack under the pressure of a time limit 😂
Fancy seeing you here
I like your vids
Oh hey! One of my favorite CZcamsrs commenting on another one of my favorite CZcamsrs! 😂😂😂
You guys are amazing
U did it without testen, much easyer if u tried it before the timer starts...
Devs of poly bridge: "lets make a game where you build bridges"
Reid Captain:"SlInGsHoT, MisSle, TaNk"
Yes
Poly Bridge: "What you're supposed to do is make a stable bridge with as little money as you can.
Poly Bridge Olympics: *"Yeet a rock"*
I love how RCE came up with the idea and then placed dead last. No knocks against him, though. I could never do anything like this.
My favorite thing to do in Poly Bridge, not make bridges.
Darn you for beating me by like, a meter on shotput. XD
Awesome work man!! Your hurdle run was probably the most entertaining out of all of us even though it was placed last, should've deducted a second for every flip you made. :P
I'll get my video done, eventually... =w=
Lol I had flips for days. Sadly there was no style points :(
@@ReidCaptain The style points are what get you likes on ur video. Great job!
Have You Considered Using The Term "Dergal", Dr. Kampling?
@@AssistantCoreAQI DERG
sorry if this is out of context but
SERGALLLLLLLLLLLLLLLLLLLLLLLLLLLLLLLLLLLLLLLLLLLLLLL AAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAA
MY GOSH SERGAL SERGAL I'M GOING TO HUG YOU ARGLIN YOU FLOOFER
sowwy
Reid captain at 19:35: Omg, I failed so horribly. I got DEAD last. I'm shocked I'm so far behind.
Meanwhile, the difference between his time and the second to last time: 0.1 seconds
So happy the event came out so great in the end, glad you enjoyed it.
Thanks for helping!!!
You see, as long as you tell them that is how it is meant to work; even the sketchiest of things is safe!
Lol
I'll always believe the limo had 8 in my heart
Hahaha, it's sad that it got so close, but seven was still a solid result!
Just a thing. This isn’t a trebuchet, it’s a catapult. The difference is that trebuchets use weight, while catapults use some kind of tension or pulling, like springs.
Edit: I was informed that actually, the difference is that trebuchets have the weight dangling by a string, while catapults always have a solid lever, but may or may not have a weight.
That's not true, trebuchets accelerate the load with a lever and a string giving it a much bigger circle and so, a much bigger lever while a catapult only uses a solid lever to launch the load, but also a simple weight.
@@ptrjnsn5719 Thanks for the help! You learn something every day
@@ptrjnsn5719 Its still not a trebuchet though, as it lacks a sling.
He didn't notice the rock was just colliding with the springs in the first trial's sandbox test.
Yeah I had that realization half way through and just kinda facepalmed
i usually never comment on videos and im never interested in construction and things like that, but i recently watched this video and your plane in a car simulator video, they were both so well edited, the voice-overes were accurate and straight to the point, and you are very smart and enjoyable to watch. I just want to say: thank you for making such awesome content, its bizzare how you are charming to the point where you get me interested into a topic i was never interested in before.
On highjump, the best ramp would actually go further right than the peak of the jump, like a skate ramp.
I'm going to have to look into that more, ramp design is interesting!
fun fact: everything that weights more than a gram, technically weights one polygram
Glad you enjoyed!
Thanks for all the help!
@@ReidCaptain I have a question. How many people tried to participate bc RCE said that these were the finals and that there were qualifying rounds so how many ppl were in the qualifying?
@@Egerit100 There were a total of 9 people who were brought into the competition! Only 6 of them managed to actually submit something in time though.
8:47 the best ramp for this approach would have been a brachistochrone curve
I think you guys shouldn't get the events/stages before the 20 minute timer starts, it'd be more about making the design and less about copying your design over in 20 minutes then
Yeah it seemed off
I think the real engineer did it the "right" way
I thought that initially on seeing this video too. Pretty sure RCE went into the events fairly cold; without understanding the challenges and definitely without prior practice.
But _then_ I thought, hold on - what's the title of the event?
In the real Olympics, do you think the competitors turn up with no idea what they'll have to do? Without have spent years, sometimes decades honing their specific skill to perfection?
What I'd like to see instead is a Polyunseenchallenge event!
Yea i thought the same. Whats the point of a time limit if the designs something for an hour and then just copies it
@@Varksterable this is something i'd never think about but its a really good point - people have years to prepare when competing for real, so it makes sense to be able prepare as much as someone wants beforehand
the reason your pentagram kept falling out of the sling is because it was colliding with the nodes connecting the springs together
found you at like 2am and now I'm subbed. Younger me would've loved you. Was obsessed with these games as a kid.
wouldve been an eng. if I didnt suck at math 😂
Besiege idea:
A human! Basic things like move arms. Doesnt even have to be standing/walking can just be sitting In a chair. then like can move arms, breath, maybe even sorta "talk" (lip movement)
Oh I'd have some uncanny valley demon if I tried, but maybe that's not a terrible thing
@@ReidCaptain 😅 could be funny. also love ur vids, I'm happy u responded 😁
Imagine if this was a real event in the Olympics
Lovely example of participating for fun. Maybe if you did a similar thing again would be fun to show some shots of the other participant's designs as well. :)
wow didn't expect to see a collab of those people. excited for more, maybe, perhaps?
There will always be more, don't worry.
I find it pretty funny how he at first didnt realise that putting "colide with everything" made the shape tangle up in springs and thats why it didnt launch at qll
its a pity you didnt show the winning design for each level
Saw this on RCE. Nice to see your perspective
idea: make wind powered car that goes faster than the wind, that would be cool if you can recreate that in dream car builder
And then make a £1,000 bet on it working with other science nerds
ah yes Veritasium
so a trebuchet but catapult
all thats Physics class definitely came in handy for this guy
Physics man at great work again.
I saw another person do this event and when I realized this was another CZcamsr who was also in the event pretty cool design for the win
That spring one looks so fun
Commented video 3. Please make a explosive powered engine in Scrap Mechanic! I want to know if you can do it, because i tried and it didnt work... And also, glad you enjoyed the event!
I refuse to believe you aren’t just Nile reds gaming channel
Reid when are you gonna do another minecraft project, I really liked the last one.
Yeah the Minecraft stuff was cool
This was fascinating for some reason. Idk how I got here though
None of the people in this competition seem to understand lever force 😭 you keep puttin springs on but you never just give yourself a long arm, on either side of the fulcrum!
Watching you get second on the bridge build blew my mind I thought you were gunna be dead last
Who TF would dislike this video??? I'm gonna go find those two
Now try ro find the 534 ones
Should've gone for a trebuchet instead of that weird catapult
1:45 and eventually you realized that your weight was colliding with the nodes of your spring, which were stripping it out of your basket? Basically you were trying to launch something, but it was trapped inside a cage fixed to the ground, so it was never going to be able to go anywhere.
9:57 i think the more the solution (road) looks like a brachistochrone the higher it will go
his physics is pretty on-point
16:14 OHHH it landed on... feet?
captainsauce is the master "bridge-biologist" he should've been on that list
one of those dudes that has too lil subs for what he provides,wonderful voice and absolute quality of a content...u jus have to love em,✌️
0:09 fun fact: Aliensrock was a bloons youtuber too 4 years ago
994 epic keep up the great content love your vids
on the high jump level, you should’ve made an arch in the road before the ramp so the car could build momentum... assuming that was within the rules.
Anyone remembers that game Armadillo? It's similar, the goal is to put a ball (the armadillo) into a designated area by building similar contraptions.
very cool, smart person
when i read that Real Civil Engineer took a part i was like: POOPCANO!
Me: Sees a video that I missed
Also me: *Happy happiness noise*
For the high jump I suspect a brachistochrone curve would have been ideal.
Amazing
It seems like cheating to design your catapult before the timer; doesn’t that defeat the point of the timer?
not sure if I'm explaining this right becaus I'm wicked tired but -- here goes
For an optimal 'ramp' like the one you used in the jumping one to get the flags, try a right angle ... but with this formula
Center stick would be exactly 45/2 degrees from the start/end points, where as the start/end points are 45 degrees apart.
Anyway, you would use 8 to 16 sticks with a sin(stick/2) which would make it start strong, smoothly even out the angles when near the middle, and then thrust the rest of the way until its exactly 90 degrees
r/overthinking probably but yeh, also I probably just confused the sh* out of people lol
Also I think its sin(stick/pi) or sin(stick/4) but meh
Would it be possible to build a ramp for the high jump that leans towards the wall when you start the game?
This event is like all track events 💀
Your lack of triangles disturbs me.
Epic
Indeed
they should add layers to poly bridge so it’s easier to layer things
As in just layers for the building, doesn’t affect the actual game
There are some color mods that work pretty well. I might try some out if I make something really layered.
@@ReidCaptain alright, those mods do sound pretty useful haha
Nice!!
"Hey, what's the engineer doing?"
Nice
Huh Aliensrock didnt shave himself to the win for once
16:13 i love how it landed
Cant believe 3 months later and still no continuation on the Scrap Mechanic computer
oh so real civil engineer is in that
epic physics moment
Careful with the name of the event, olympics legit might DMCA that title for the event
16:13 why is that so satisfying
poor tyler, who donked the ceiling
Achually.. it's catapult :)
Trebuchets use gravity, yours uses elasticity. I'll see myself out lol
Sorry to be that person but
"A trebuchet is a specific version of the catapult that uses a counterweight to create the force to fling an object from a sling at the end of a pole. *All trebuchets are catapults, but not all catapults are trebuchets*"
Even if it was a true trebuchet, it's a catapult
So yes you're right but I'm righter
I really wanna see all the other solutions
I think it’s official: Imma buy Poly Bridge 2 with my new iPad mini when AT&T carries it.
The pentagon was colliding with the nodes on the spring
The rock was clipping into the springs...
Peak gameplay
What's the point of the timer if you can practice beforehand? Just a micro simulator?
love how he says me for the rock
Idea; Lets use the trebuchet tennis ball built
The problem with your weight bridge is all the squares in the bottom arch supports
I have no idea why this was recommended to me but good job I guess.
11:32 if you put it in slow mo you can see that the wright thing went to 98 percent
I was more upset about the weight lifting on that last one
For the weightlifting part, using a spiderweb design is fundamentally flawed, as it is consisted of squares in compression.
Do you ever see a spiderweb in compression in the wild? Rhetorical question, you do not because as soon as a web experiences inward force it collapses.
Last thing we need is you to build a jet in besiege
ramp/high jump, why didn't you use a spring loaded mechanism to boost the car and give it even more speed before hitting the ramp?
Can the next video (or a next video) look at what the other winners did for their designs?
I think RCE has a video on that, and Arglin will have a really cool comparison video coming today/tomorrow.
@@ReidCaptain k
With the flag jump, did anyone think to spring load the car and catapult it up the ramp ?
Is it just me or does this guy sound like Nile Red
They guy sounds like the guy from the "stuff made here" youtube channel
The bridge can shoot threes better than me lol
mmhmm yes this is good
Your voice reminds me of the lock's picking lawyer voice
the way that x-spring landed is just m
can you make an engine-powered bicycle in Besiege
