It makes me think of BBQ's, for some reason. ._.

You actually would've been better off buying a current gen ps3 & a ps2 as it is actually cheaper than the $300+ price point of the older ones (A mistake I learned the hard way a couple days ago). That is unless you got it when the backwards compatable ones were still being sold. Then my advice holds no meaning
Exactly what I did.. instead of running around trying to find an old fat one just brought the latest model slimline and have a PS2 handy for any old school play, the slimline PS2s dont really occupy much space..
Same with me really. I have a PS3 slim and have my old PS2, also slim. Such a small thing, so much epic. Just a bit too bad that I can't connect it to my HD screen here on my room where my PS3 and PC are. Otherwise I'd have it here too, along with my Wii and my NES.

I just use that what I feel that fits with the bot.
And mostly all the flamers that I will still be making with have them (with a relation to fire), but that doesn't mean all bots will have them. So please just stop bitching about it and just accept it.

That, looks damn cool.

That's just something you'll have to expect seeing from me.

Is that a BW or LW? Looks nice either way.

I'm not planning anything bad really.

I knooooow, but I don't want to lose the ability to grip opponents to the front. Maybe if I put them on the beaters at the front, like with its MW sister. I am in doubt.

You just read it yourself, why are you asking?

 Oh look, a 4WD LW. It's not efficient, but hey, to  with that. Here is a nice looking IRL realistic bot that does it's job, push and burn. Only regret is that it isn't invertible, but I'll work on that at some point.

Sounds good enough to me.

I've got a 60GB one and that can definitely play PS2 games. Someone just dumped it in a building skip outside our house and nobody ever claimed it so it's mine nowwww hahahahah.
Lol win. You know you could also go modding and put a 1TB HDD in there. Some friend of mine did that with his, though that was an 80GB. Also, add me on PSN? Mine can be found in my sig.

Lolwut? Can't remember my PS3 having a regionlock.
Anyway, 80GB can't read the PS2 discs, but lately, few PS2 games have appeared in the PSN Store. I bought Seek & Destroy there and it works fine.
Annoying to have to re-buy the games in order to play them on PS3, but I don't mind it all too much.

Giving everything normal does have it's use in balancing, which is something Click is doing with whole DSL3, amongst other things. So I'd say just let him do what he feels is best.

I prefer to use Photoshop CS4, but that's because I always want to make a nice splash for my bots. For normal clopping like this, Paint is indeed more then enough.

Here is an older post from Click where he first mentioned it. Needed to do some digging trough the thread to find it. And yes Nar... The Razors will have normals. OK here's what I was planning. Just to stop this debate here.
- There will be at most 15 teams of replica bots. As many as possible will be existing replicas revamped to be more competitive. The rest will be new. Some previous replicas may not reappear in DSL3.
Now I know this is controversial because the replicas are not seen to add anything to the game except nostalgia. Well, that's not quite true. They also add COMPONENTS--a lot of them, some of which are useless on regular bots, but others which can be very useful. An example is the new axle extender I made. I made that because I needed it for El Diablo, but then I realized it would be a useful stock component as well. Expect a bunch of new replica parts in DSL3.
Also, the stock DSL AI is not supposed to be super difficult. That's what AI packs are for. Keep in mind that fresh noobs will download this too and they won't be ready for 123AI-level difficulty. The replicas will be tougher than they were in DSL2, but still beatable with any decent bot.
And lastly, DSL started out as a balanced replica pack to counter the AU Battlebots pack, and it wouldn't feel right to leave them out.
- If I get lazy, I will make less than 15 teams of replicas and fill the rest with bots made with stock DSL3 parts. Obviously this can't be done until everything else is finished, however.
- There will not be very many new arenas. Maybe 1 or 2.
- Components will be rebalanced of course... but I am having a hard time deciding how to do this as more about the damage formula is learned.
My most recent thought is to go the Backlash and Space Arena route where no weapons have normals, except backwards--EVERY weapon has normals. This will make it much more difficult to simply spam weapons and count on out-weaponing your opponent--you also have to think about how those weapons are placed. I think weapon designs could become much more strategic and less about outweaponing (though outweaponing will certainly still be a major factor). It also eliminates the need for trying to balance normal weapons with non-normal weapons.
Then, due to 123's observations on the spillover effect and light weapons always being better than heavy ones, and high DP weapons always being better than low DP ones due to hitting non-weapons, I was thinking to make all the heavy weapons shifted toward higher DP and all the light weapons low DP. 123 will probably point out some major flaw with that plan though...
- There will be new components, but some old components will also disappear. In particular some of those weird replica components like the Typhoon flag and Firestorm air tank, but also the metal hinge. Now this isn't some blind reaction to try and stop the wedge war--I'm not so naive as that. But getting rid of the metal hinge will force players to use other hinge components--most importantly, other components that AGOD less frequently. The end result should be wedges are just as good, but there's less AGOD and everyone is happy.
- The race mode may be postponed and released as a later addon, to save time.

Dunno about Tournament section since I haven't really gotten into how things work there too much, but Real robotics wouldn't be any trouble for me I think. So I'll go and apply to that.

Human, I always joke around with logic. And I dunno about thread amount. This one was made by Ty (bad excuse, I know), but after this, I might go looking for someone else to get fighting with for a bit.

We're not trying to be funny. We just like fighting each-other.
you are just sad because you won your challenge.
