nice build. sucks about the agod though

wondering if getting some plows or ramplates on there instead of 6 maces would be good, but honestly it would be a super pain in the can to do

For trillions of years we have walked this world, unaware of our past. In a trillion more, we shall walk it again. We now know it is the cycle of things. We have but one goal – unite the world under our banner as it once was – so it shall again be for untold ages to come. It is inevitable. One color as our descendants once again conquer the ages of trillions.

map for the comic. i will fill in specific locations as needed and the story progresses. I like keeping things a bit vague to keep the sense of wonder.

the problem with stock is that everything about it is invalidated by ra2cf. nobody actually does snapper loading, advance stacking, or any type of glitch for that matter anymore lol. the only point of those glitches is to decide what is and what isn't legal with ra2cf (which also doesn't matter because very few members know what is and isn't legal in the bot lab)

also to be blunt, stock is pretty much dead now with the majority of the active userbase

that's not true. when I was building, even after RA2CF, i did everything in the bot lab. what really 'killed' building for me was hax mode, which FINALLY broke the rule of "if it's done in the bot lab it's legal" that had held true through effe, stacking, sloading, etc
hax mode and ra2cf both basically let you ignore collision so for all intents and purposes they're the same, but ra2cf is just easier to use for most people
...basically like stacking. lazy people will just use ra2cf instead of stacking cause it gets you the same results with less work. unfortunately it lets you break the rules by accident too. "purity" aside, it's too gray of a line now.

stock is dead because it's hard, tedious, and nearly impossible to be original for new players. it's nothing personal, but there's a reason people play irl dsl for the most part.

theres literally 70 of these already
Ah there is?
Well find them all and show me then

Whether there is or not, this has been the most simple and effective to follow so I approve! I'm gonna try my hand at this later and see how I do!
Eh, it's okay. It's just Badnik being Badnik

there's at least 2 more but I couldn't find them for some reason. more tutorials are fine as long as they work. everyone chill geez

agree with geice but even before ra2cf it was hard to tell if a lot of the crazy stacks were legit. I have a hunch that many more builders than you think used BFE to get some mad stacks. Not even necessarily for 'cheating', but more for laziness (why take 30min to stack that triple black when you can just open notepad? would have happened either way, right...?). it's almost impossible to disprove some bizarre exostacks too (can't get your RAD to stick half out the chassis like I did?... guess my game copy just likes me more..). ra2cf is just easy BFE. nothing more or less imo. and it's basically impossible to crack down on in metas where it's illegal, so people just moved to different metas. ie IRL, super-easy-mode. where looks come before efficiency and BFE doesn't matter much as a result.

715
it's not.
