MW = 399
Can AW and BW be 125 and 175 instead of 124.9 and 174.9 please?


And its always been 125 and 175, reier...

MW has NEVER been 399
 
Back in the old days AW was 124.9 and BW was 174.9 (only recently has this changed)

Are the DSL classes slightly different then, cos the official DSL3 SHW limit is 1200kg, right?

That's coz RA2 likes you.

all 399 bots are HW to me.
Put this onto your signature if you were part of this crappy fad in '03.

it's probably a glitch, depending on the parts

I actually think the real weight is like 399.0034 and you just don't see the numbers. And if it's over 399.09 it's a HW or something like that. Maybe not those numbers but still.

I am wrong again, I just built a 399.0 MW......actually, I think the 1.3 patch changed that.

ACAMS, we already made the smartzones. We have never had an official SHW or UHW before, so why must you insist they are different than my choices?

because he is trying to set them to make it fair, so that 5,000 kg bots fight 30,000 kg bots, thats why antiballasts have limits

I thought SHW was 800-1200?
Input is appreciated. :)

800-1200 is the official SuperHeavyWeight Class for DSL set by Clickbeetle 

I think just a limit to 5000 is fine, you can build absolute killers at 3000 its just an "open" weightclass for people to go crazy

Y'all do what ever you want, but if the game allows 249.0 LW and 399.0 MW you should not change that, and to be honest, Starcore wanted AW 125 and BW 175 LONG ago.......I was just telling you what it was in the beginning.

Who is to keep you from using 20 or 30 of them?????
 
Who is to keep you from editing them to -99999999999999999 and using 20 or 30 of those?????

No, I understand the sometimes the game lets you do 249 and 399, but I didn't put it up there because it has never happened to me before.

I just don't understand why you want to change the SHW class...

I don't see why there is any debating over MW and LW ? why not just what ever the game says your robot is :P

I thought this was all just about a simple addition of a new (virtually limitless) weight class because about 3 or 4 builders started approaching the 5k mark?

also Sage do you want to add stock's weight classes ?

Oh, so just the above HW weights?

I don't know, can't we just use this for stock too? Will anyone really build a UHW in stock?

As for backlash, were you gonna have a limit on your SHW or not?
