Galaxy: As we all use the most recent gen now, there's little point noting combo's for older generations. If I understood you correctly
Thinking back, no one really used the standard attack, defense, and endurance names for types. It was all compartmentalized into a more descriptive form of the combo; Upper, Smash, etc
I really, really wish I could help with this stuff but my plastic collection is tiny now
RE: Plastic Parts Discussion - th!nk - Jul. 21, 2011
Yeah, we gotta stop thinking like mfb bladers. Everyone forgets balance these days. It used to be a thing, a thing that rocked.
You still got that metal bitchip?
RE: Plastic Parts Discussion - Evan - Jul. 21, 2011
EDIT;
I never owned it, you are thinking of the other Evan (Guardian_Odin/Anubis). I beat a compact combo of his that used it with an unorthodox "attack" type. It worked in a similar manner as MF Meteo L-Drago CH120XF does now.
My Combo
AR: Galzzly
SAR: Gaia Dragoon G
WD: Wide Survivor (Probably should have used Wide Defense, but my Survivor matched the color scheme nicely)
SG: Neo Left Metal Core
BB: SG Metal Flat 2

His Combo
*Metal BBA Bit Chip*
AR: Kid Draciel
WD: Wide Defense
SG: Neo Right HMC
BB: SG Metal Ball w/ 4 Metal Balls

how about this
attack

RE: Plastic Parts Discussion - Galaxy - Jul. 22, 2011
I think that a good scheme (after discussions) could be:
Attack Customizations:
Upper Attack
- ...
...
- ...
...
Defense Customizations:
....
and so on..
In your opinion
?
RE: Plastic Parts Discussion - th!nk - Jul. 22, 2011
Personally, I don't think we need the "attack, defense, endurance" categories. They only mean more work deciding how to categorise stuff. As evan said, they were rarely thought of that way in their time, and it's pointless IMO.
Evan: coulda sworn I saw you say he'd traded it to you
Hmh.

IMO, it would just make it easier for newbies, th!nk...
You see, instead of going through the whole thread, they'll just have to see the tiers list... Still, as my knowledge about plastics = 0, then I think its pretty useful to me too! (Jan's guide on: How to be selfish
)
RE: Plastic Parts Discussion - th!nk - Jul. 22, 2011
Yeah, but it'd all be in the op, and all of our "types" have descriptions on beywiki we can link to (I can update them where needed).

I don't want to go against you,but i don't understand what you want to do xD!
I think because i'm Italian so i don't understand EVERYTHING when you guys write here xD
Why that categories mean more work? Upper is clearly an Attack Customization,no?
Make me an example if you can,please xD!

Well, that's true!
So in that case, there isn't gonna be any tiers list.
All beywiki articles about types list a few plastic parts which are top tier in that category. So, as you said, beywiki is your best friend if you wanna learn more about beys.
RE: Plastic Parts Discussion - Serotonin - Jul. 22, 2011
Janstarblast has made me think of something; wouldn't it just be better if you focussed your energies on writing more articles on Plastics?
RE: Plastic Parts Discussion - Galaxy - Jul. 22, 2011
In fact,it was also a my idea!I wrote it some posts ago xD!
Surely first to write a tier list,we need more tests on components and it should be a great occasion to write the articles that BeyWiki doesn't have yet
Then,i suggested to focus our work on a Tier List

If WBO is really considering plastics now, then yes, articles of plastics will be extremely helpful(when I was new here, I'd asked Kai-V about beywiki articles on plastics). We do need those, you know. But the problem is, are there enough people who could actually write a whole article for plastics? I mean, being able to write every detail for every part, is quite tough IMO; and even tougher as we have many members who know only about MFB....

That's fine man
Basically, yeah, but then we have things like compacts, which, while they are balance, are also kinda defence.
Simply, I just don't think the headings "Attack, Defence, Endurance" would do anything worthwhile
(Jul. 22, 2011 3:17 PM)♥ Wrote: Janstarblast has made me think of something; wouldn't it just be better if you focussed your energies on writing more articles on Plastics?True, but this is a simpler way to start that kinda of thing IMO, because writing articles is HARD!

While that sounds good we want a resource which compares the parts in the types. While I think beywiki is good it doesn't do this. There is no proper way in which beywiki can compare them. Also beywiki articles can take a long time to write properly especially if they require testing since few can do this.
RE: Plastic Parts Discussion - th!nk - Jul. 22, 2011
Ultrablader: My thoughts exactly. Let's just focus on the tier list. Do link to a new thread when one of us bothers to make it

More or less is the same. 100+ Plastics :]
@ th!nk,ok i think i've understood what you want to say but,at this point can't we open more categories?
Attack - and all subcategories
Defense - All subcategories
Endurance - All subcategories
Then, if something can be included in two or more categories,we can open a new category with that name! Is it too difficult in your opinion?
Fo r example,if there's a Compact that we can put in two categories,we will open a category named "Compact",and stop xD!
RE: Plastic Parts Discussion - th!nk - Jul. 22, 2011
Okay, fair enough then, well, I've written some small lists for a few categories in a few posts in the last two pages, so yeah, guess we should get started?

Then when we will build a final Tier List,i'll write a Thread in Advanced Forum (because i can
xD) so it will be visible to all members What in your opinion guys?
RE: Plastic Parts Discussion - th!nk - Jul. 22, 2011
Galaxy, Italicised Italian
Personally, I think it would be better if we had an OP for all of us to refer to while writing/commenting, as it would be easier to organise and contribute. When it's done, you could ask for it to be moved, maybe?
In that case, you'd have to make the thread as you're the only one of us who is Advanced
RE: Plastic Parts Discussion - Galaxy - Jul. 22, 2011
Ok if there's no problem for mods, i'll open a new Thread named "Building a Tier List for Plastic".
Then i'll put in the OP all informations and links that we can use for discuss as well of our projects,so as you want i'll be able to edit the OP during our considerations.
Then,if for everyone is ok,mods can close this Thread, it will be useless.
Is anyone contrary?
RE: Plastic Parts Discussion - th!nk - Jul. 22, 2011
I don't want to close this thread. It serves it's own purpose, that is a general plastics discussion. It is nice to have for discussing interesting plastics stuff, that isn't necessarily top tier. It's only recently it became a tier list discussion.
