I'll just say this: I got bored of the stock game after literally 3 days because it was too easy. If it wasn't for the DSL I'd be playing UT3 right now.

Me. You. AI battle.

DSL2 is broken. If I could win BBEANS 6 when I really don't play DSL there's something wrong :) Which is why I like stock, cause only the best built bots win tournaments.

DSL 2 is broken, but LESS SO than stock. And you won because you built something good, but out of copying.

If I'm able to copy someone's bot (not saying I did, but for arguments sake) and then win, DSL is broken. The thing about stock is you have to be GOOD AT BUILDING to copy a GOOD BOT.

Also, stock isn't broken. Wedges don't rule. And honestly there aren't that many more parts to use in DSL, it just took us a lot longer to find the good ones.

DSL3, however, will be really good.

Sage, did you seriously just compare inneficient builders to rich fat people?

What better way to say lazy? :P

DDTs seem a little far back. Cool concept though.

@sage I know HOW to do the glitches, and im sure if I tried and spent some time in my stock showcase I could build decently in it. I just don't like stock for many reasons.
If I, or somebody else for that matter, can make cool looking, or at the very least unique bots in stock, but without effectiveness and loads of glitches, would you call them lazy?

Yep.

Take this example. A fat man tries to look cooler by wearing expensive clothing that looks cool, along with his trademark hat that makes him unique. It wasn't a very effective way to make himself look better. Now, if he had gotten off his lazy ass and did a strict routine of diet and exercise, he would have lost his fat and would look 10x better than he did before. Diet and exercise is effective. He can put those expensive clothes and trademark hat on after for icing on the cake.

I hope that metaphor makes sense, cause it does to me xD

and Sage, want to see a realistic and good stock bot? search for my Micro Vulcan.

Build a realistic bot that hasn't been done before and is semi-effective and I'll see your point as valid.

Flippers have been made since the beginning of RA2. And they suck. Except in DSL.

Otherwise, stock's about having fun building whatever the heck you want to build, with most "restrictions" already broken by glitches and such. Almost everyone who pushes for "realistic" stock are those who are too lazy to put in the effort and learn the glitches and techniques and patience required to build a good bot, so they're looking for a way to bring other people down. At least my opinion.

I'm also a secret showcase moderator (SHHH) even though my name isn't listed.

I asked ACAMS to make my own thread for me, which is why I'm the moderator. Thanks again ACAMS!

Getting much better! Personally I find it rather skinny (just a taste of mine, harder to be flanked if the bot is wider.)

Okay, so Snapper Loading is quite difficult to do, right? Try doing it FOUR TIMES.

HAHAHAHAHA YOU HAVE NO IDEA.

Top right of my signature. Built off a single axle mount. twice as many things to load plus NINE attempts.


NO COMPLAINING :P

P.S. bots good :)

Zero G is like stacking 5 hp zteks in one spot with a baseplate anchor in the middle which is holding a battle axe.

Newton's second law would push the front of the bot down

Yep, because this game TOTALLY follows the rules of physics

What are you making it out of? A war monument could be anything. Unless you're a skilled stone mason... I don't know if that's the best path for the Eagle project.

Do something that's more like a huge DIY project. Build a giant treehouse for the local orphanage :)

If you're really pushing for the memorial though, do something more like building 50 or so wooden crosses, painted white, with holders for american flags and set them up along the main street in your town during veterans day. or something.

The biggest thing is to START. Once you start you know what you have to do. Just go for it!

Oi. I feel bad about your first "girlfriend" (who's really just a friend, seeing as you were ELEVEN and didn't even kiss her) but honestly one breakup is nothing to write a sob story about... especially if she was freaking 9-10 years old. Calling your life a rollercoaster and crying about it is kinda sad considering the sh** that so many other people have to go through. One of the greatest powers a person can have is the ability to move on and let go of things you can't change. You'll be much happier, I guarantee it.

(reads CT)

No one wants you to leave. why would you think that?
