We can also downpower components, yes, but it'll be an IRL mod then.

Considering IRL is really only popular for DSL 2.1, it shouldn't be too much of a mod.

im from 2008 what is irl

is it like crappy building

Nah, it's building artbots with a few additional rules to make the bots more like real-life ones.

Of course, bad IRL builders think IRL is like crappy building, though.

Discussion / A new ruleset for IRL ?

starting to get drunk so my idea should be good


So, as I posted in badnik's showcase lately, IRL tournaments are not good because let's face it, the tournaments are by themselves in DSL-S tournament format with IRL bots.

And the fact that these days 80% of tourneys are IRL (and i'm not even exaggerating) means that, as people want to win tourneys (which is normal), they tryhard in IRL.

However, IRL is about cool looks and interesting designs. Yes it is also about winning but this is secondary. See a paradox there ? Good.

Literally the only reward about cool looks is the award. And even then there's only one winner per award, so all the cool bots entered aren't rewarded.

So I propose a few changes to the IRL ruleset :

-All matches who are not KO's or OOTA's should be judge's decisions, and there should be the following voting possibilities : Aggression (what bot was the most aggressive, Damage(self explanatory), Match Control (whoever controlled the match the most : gives bonus to weaponless wedges and flippers) and Good Show (whoever bot put on the best show).

If the judges are unsure, THEN it goes by points.

-Chassis armor should be strengthened, even the DSL ones, so gut-rippers don't kill easily. Alternatively, one should find a way to give the chassis more fracture.

-Seeds should be put in place, with the coolest bots getting top seeds, and the most tryhard/borderline DSL-S getting low seeds. Top seeds should get one or two additional lifes, depending on coolness. As in, if they are in loser's bracket and get eliminated, they lose on life and are reintroduced into the loser's bracket. Very low seed bots should even get eliminated immediately if they lose one match, and not get into the loser's bracket.

This to keep IRL being IRL and not "DSL-S with IRL restrictions.".

What do you think about that ? I'm aware the reintroduction into loser's bracket due to seeds will need additional bracket work.

So apparently the meme "RA3 will never be a thing" has been shot down...

It was the same with the bot exchange back then :P

>beetleweight
eh

However, I did said I would enter and I did build a bot for that, so I suppose I should enter it.

But really interest for RA2 is about 0,032 right now. I just stick around here for showcases, and the community.

I think it's trolling.

Who would do a sequel for a 100-people fan base anyway ?

Besides, i'm just gonna be a party pooper and say it will be a scrublord version of RA2 with pretty graphics but sh**ty component choice and no variety at all.

I'm fine with RA2 as it is.

Honestly awards in an IRL tournament are the gratification for building something nice looking which has little combat efficiency (thanks to those who've voted Nemesis as Best Engineered in the BBX awards :P means a lot)

It's not much, compared to extra battle time and extra battles.

as long as 80% of tournaments are irl and as long as irl tournaments are like standard tournaments but with IRL bots, people will tryhard in irl.

Besides I kinda want a minimum of combat effectiveness in my irl bots. because a very cool bot who promptly loses 2 matches is immediately out, and hence it's not worth the effort since it only battles a minimum.

I honestly think instead of the robot who won, have every IRL match be judge's decision and make the bot who put on the best show advance.

Or we should change the bracket format in IRL.

pointless bump.

It's a forum. It happens innit?

Yup, but bumping showcases makes people think the OP posted in them, and it wasn't the case.

Hence why bumps are A-OK unless they are pointless.
