Ok I add my comment too.

I Like:

-New parts
-New menus
-New music
-New maps

I Dislike:

-On All vs. All fights all AI bots destroyes player's bot first.
-Hard to make good spinning defences even on 132 perm if that weights above 90kgs.
(- Make little smaller version of perm 132 and remove that chain from it so the power comes straight from the motor to the wheel or to something else so it wouldn't use so much space.)
-Zoom doesn't bring enough close. Like 1 or 2 clicks nearer would be nice.
-Robots look like new even they are destroyed. If you want to cover robots under panels make the panels bend so it looks more realistic. Like in this pic. :lol:

:lol: Little too realistic.

W00t! I just got DSL working on my computer.

I like:

The new arenas. Blade arena and Robot Wars arenas are fun and the obstacle course is mind blowing.
New components (but it would be nice to have more)
New menus

I dislike:

A good majority of the AI bots are either flippers or spinners. It would be nice to have more hammers and CO2 ram bots.
There are still only four types of armor.
You can still only place 15 points on the grid when designing a chassis.

That's all so far seeing as I have just been playing DSL for a day.

Well i think dsl ai is too easy they need to get reeeeally tough and starcore needs to come back to help it cause starcores ai pack was the only pack that put up a fight! but with click and fire beetle i think the next dsl will be even more kick butt then ever :D EDIT

I Dislike:

Those annoying consolation prizes that say Sh*t like: "you are last so you get the horses A**"
Some AI bots are literally Impossible
The Judge's Constant Havok Explosions
No way to attach Tornado's Wedge

I don't get why you guys are yelling at him. He bumped a topic. So what? At least what he posted contributed at least a little bit.

Weirdo · « **Reply #46 on:** May 10, 2009, 05:03:45 PM »

What you did, Natef, was reply to a topic that was 4 years old. This is b a d. This is also called 'bumping'. Bumping a thread thats coming up to a year old is frowned upon, but bumping a thread no-one's replyed to in 4 years? Nonononononono.

Sage · « **Reply #47 on:** May 10, 2009, 08:11:35 PM »

Are you KIDDING guys? Whats wrong with bumping a topic if he actually contributes to it? Would you yell at some old veteran like perhaps luigica coming back and posting a bot in his showcase because he hasn't in over a year? No.

You would also yell at him for creating a new topic as well. Is ranting on noobs really all you guys can do for this forum?

For a thread like this, it is not bad to bump as it is just your opinion on what you like/dislike about DSL. If it were about a certain event that happened years ago that would be different.

^^^yep^^^

It is ALWAYS.....ALWAYS OK to bump old topics as long as you have something new to add....

I agree with what he said about the consolation prizes.... Those things depress me.

better to bump than to make a new thread!

Weirdo · « **Reply #52 on:** May 11, 2009, 02:18:05 PM »

Well, having read that, I see that I, amongst others, was in the wrong. I think we just reacted badly because bumping a 4 year old thread isn't generally a done thing. But you're right, he did actually contribute something.

Apologies to Natef =)

When you realize that all of the prizes are technically useless, you won't care about what you win. I enjoy seeing a nice Biggie burger rather then those big-ass trophies.

I was talking about the text, not the actual prizes.

Oh yeah. Forgot how DSL has the "Robot Building for Dummies" box. And how it discredits you in the text and stuff.

Eh, not bothered about that.

roboman2444 · « **Reply #56 on:** May 14, 2009, 05:44:26 PM »

dsl3.0 might not have that

JoeCB1991 · « **Reply #57 on:** May 15, 2009, 12:48:48 AM »

I like the Consolation prizes.

Alterer of Reality · « **Reply #58 on:** August 28, 2009, 07:23:21 PM »

Likes:
Realism
AI-though I admit it can be hard as

it really pushed me to improve my building
New Arenas
New Components

Dislikes-
MAJOR lag when I start a match in Exhibition.
Cave map and similar maps. The uneven surface does sh*t for my wedges and driving.
The annoying text for consolation prizes.

RedSawn · « **Reply #59 on:** August 29, 2009, 05:33:21 PM »

I'll add something new to what I said before (if I actually said anything) and say - the unupdated yet visible Stock components are bad. The still-visible extenders could be useful if they were durable - or otherwise lightened.
