Note : I don't hate IRL, hell in plenty of cases I have said an IRL bot was cool, awesome or some combination thereof.

IRL is good for LOOKS and COOLNESS (although DSL-S can be just as good or better than IRL at that). However it's not good for proper fighting.

Therefore I wonder why all these people are so eager for IRL tournaments. It's not like you don't win IRL tournaments by spamming drums (or HS or VS) which are mostly the same designs in standard and IRL anyways...

damn i remember the time when the DSL tournaments were DSL so you could actually fight and not all this "not irl enough" nonsense.

I like IRL, Infact I cannot stand Non IRL, all robots are uninspired, going for the "Razor Rammer" or "Stick pointy things on tribars woop". IRL is how I believe RA2 should be played.
completely incompetent builder's opinion

... oh wait, don't want to spark a flame war in there.
Hey I wont flame as long as you dont.

Its cool That you accepted The Republic Of Texas, Despite it being from the 1800's :P
No prob dude.

In all these tournaments, people don't exclude dual beta bursts when they, in a walled arena, can finish the match in 3 seconds, why is this?

because they are large and weigh a lot it is beleived that you have to sacrifice something else on the bot like armor

yea what he said

dual beta burst requires ALOT of battery power anything less than the required amount means it's gonna get it's flippers stuck raised in the air doing absolutely nothing before the match ends

I built one before and it was slow, had terrible armor and all it could do really was flip so yea. balance

Ah Ok, I was just wondering because if you look at things like second sentinel, if you made a remake of that for this it would go in your favour if you got a good flip in

second sentinel is made of pure magic there is no way you can make a bot that tough while still having decent speed and enough power for the beta motors

Second Sentinel has just good wedges and awesome flipping power. Also, good AI.
