Unique Death Message for Each Turret

[DAVIDBLAYVAS_from_EE 66]

This is a simple suggestion, and I couldn't find anything similar; but there may be somewhere.

When a tank is destroyed, on the top-right of the interface it shows it to all battle participants. There are two types of messages:

Player123 destroyed Player321

or

Player789 self-destructed.

I suggest that these messages are unique not only for each turret, but also each type of death, examples:

 

Firebird: Player123 burned Player321

Railgun: Player123 pierced Player321

Falling off the map: Player123 fell off the map.

Vulcan self-damage: Player123 overheated.

Thunder self-splash: Player123 was struck by his own thunder.

 

There's many types of deaths, including all 11 turrets, 3 of them able to kill themselves, falling off the map, being killed by mines, and maybe a few more I missed adding up to over 16. If it won't be in Tanki Online, I at least hope to see it in Tanki X.

Tell me what you think!

This sounds like an awesome idea :) I really hope this gets implemented :D

We. need. this.

Alright, thanks for the positive feedback! 

This will be the spreadsheet with ideas for the different messages, updated every time I see a better one:

 

Turret kills:

Firebird: "burned"

Freeze: "froze"

Isida: "leeched"

Hammer: "hammered"

Twins: "melted"

Ricochet: "juggled balls at"

Smoky: ???

Vulcan: "minigunned"

Thunder: "struck"

Railgun: "drilled holes in"

Shaft: "sniped"

 

Turret-related self-destructions:

Ricochet: "failed at juggling"

Vulcan: "overheated"

Thunder: "was struck by his own thunder"

 

Other deaths:

Leaving the map: "tried to flee the battlefield" (something related to jailbreak maybe?)

Mine: "took a false step" (how will this incorporate the one who planted the mine?)

Suicide (Del key): "took his own life"

 

Try to avoid using the turret name in the death message, as I failed to do in freeze and hammer.

Isida- got vampired :p

Rico self-splash: Player123 failed at juggling

I really like that one!

[DAVIDBLAYVAS_from_EE 66]

Isida- got vampired :P

Done.

[BuriedSky 1,319]

I got a better idea...

Whenever someone kills somebody... instead of 'destroyed' a symbol of the turret should come...

 

 

 

P.S - Okay, I'll admit it.....I stole this idea from CounterStrike..:P

 

[SpeedyRailgun 183]

Like!

[Helindu_2014 830]

Smoky- Player123 smoked Player321

:)

[Antikompanie 160]

god idea

[Indra_Otsutsuki 329]

This would be hilarious.

[dilsharox 2,395]

Good idea

[CaptainMaxwell7 231]

I'd say maybe an animation for each turret as well. Different animations for each turret death!

[Penguin40 1,714]

Ricochet: Juggled  :lol:

 

Mine: Blew up

[Benefactor 6,890]

Thunder (self-destruction): Player123 looked down the barrel of his own turret

Mine: Player123 took a false step

How about changing gold box notification to "Admin gold pls"

[DAVIDBLAYVAS_from_EE 66]

I don't like the symbol nor animation idea, and Helindu_2014 I'd like to avoid the turret names, to be creative.

I love P-Shooter's suggestion for a mine, but the thunder self-destruct isn't as clear, we also want it to be obvious yet creative.

Good ideas. :D

Self-damage. When an enemy is nose-to-nose right with you (or you are aiming at a wall near you), it's like looking down the barrel of your own gun - just pull the trigger and see what happens. Thunder users would know. :)

All turrets have barrels.

We want to make it clear which turret makes the kill (or self-destruction) and avoid using metaphors and idioms.

Ricochet: Juggled balls - Penguin40 juggled balls at TestPlayer1. 

 

Mine: Blew up - Penguin40 blew up TestPlayer1

 

:lol:

 

And Thunder self-destruction: Splashed himself - Penguin40 splashed himself
