What do you like/dislike about DSL!

I agree. Another thing, Why are there stock componets in DSL 2.1, but we aren't allowed to use them in tournements or in showcases?

Because some of them are used in some of the replicas.

SlapHappy uses HPZ drive as an example.

Interesting. Why hasn't/won't that be changed?

I hate how it has to be realistic though it can be unrealistic

DSL was made to be realistic. Its basis is realism. You can build unrealistic bots if you want, just don't showcase them.
I built that big robot on that TV show that time

I like the fact that there are much more components in DSL, so we can build a greater variety of machines. Although there might be a bit of confusion over what's realistic and what isn't, like I had when I was starting out.

I see what u did there.

DSL WAS built for realism, but some things, such as the cheaty "Nar-mour", and AGOD's can't really be helped all that much.

"Nar-mour"

That's brilliant.

That's what I'm gonna call skirt hinge armour from now on. Besides cheaty.

Yeessss, me too :D


OT:
I like DSL more than stock due to the "relative" realism (bout 20 times more than stock though). I'm not a great fan of the invincible halfsheet, if there was a way to make the halfsheet breakoffable I would be fine with it. Though that would make popups and other gut rippers even better. Oh, and popups. I've built a couple, and sure, 1-2 hit KO's can be good, but they just push the boundaries of the realism a little too much for me. Don't like them in general. XD

*Disclaimer:If the above person has a bot or two that can be considered unrealistic, inform him immediately and he will do his best to rectify this (excludes the popups earlier in his showcase) to avoid looking like a tard in the above paragraph*
