a rant about the community
« on: December 17, 2020, 06:14:58 PM »
glad to see its almost  2021 and nothing has changed at all. every juicer still is using only typhoons/beaters on their builds and they get butthurt the moment something is better than them. ant blades? banned. mech discs? banned. minion discs? banned. dread discs? banned. literally having damaging weapons in the front of your rammer? banned. this game has been reduced to a ruleset that just favors lazily made VS and its saddening.  nicky was right all along, this game truly is dying. i mean for ****s sake the creative is so lacking that some dude making the same big blue flipper every month is considered the "best" builder. i can't wait for this discord to finally go under lol, i'll see you all in RRC, thats where there true gamers live.

Why do people still care?
Is RR2 not the new flavor of the month or something?

This forum became deadsy's when people stopped playing Stock.

Now we wait for RR2 if that is still a thing.

I've moved to other forums. Under a different name. This is where it all began.

Yeah we get it, forum is basically dead at this point: thing is everyone already knows! It's not news, a handful of people upload their stuff here and that's about it.

As for RA2? It's still kicking on Discord: could probably survive to the 20 year anniversary tbh heck

stock isn't even completely dead. ms2 has his own live streamed stock tournament/ruleset that pulls in a decent amount of new users to ra2, and is also fairly active with people posting stock bots everyday

gtm just really isn't a part of the ra2 community anymore

its a dumbed down ruleset that's closer to dsl-s, but wedges are still allowed

its not greatest or well thought out ruleset by any means, but at the very least sh**ty ra2cf made hs aren't going to sh** stomp every bottype in existence
