I hate fire! There is little to no escape for me and fire... i feel like its almost a cheat. Sometimes ill feel a fire burst only for a second and then BOOM im dead! I sometimes go out of my way to kill fireflies! I wish there was a way to make maps that limit certain weapons. If there was, id make maps that ban fireflies! ;-)

OK. good tips... but don't i have to upgrade my M0 completely before i can get to the M1? or is it a Rank thing? What kind of player am I? I am NOT a camper! I cant stand campers/camping (long range weapons like Shaft and Rail). its boring despite the high body count. I am a "Make it happen" kind of player. Capture the flag, I'm going for the flags! Control points, I'm gonna get as many as i can!! Death match isn't really were my fun comes from but it is where the crystals are and now that i bought the double XP pass, I have to fight DM to make use of it ;-( I understand that paints have their Pros and Cons (as with any thing - like cars... if you want fast off the line then you'll suffer in top speed and vice versa) but my paint just hasnt helped at all and its expensive to upgrade and TAKES FOREVER!!! my next fire protection upgrade is 2k crystals and will take 1D1H to upgrade ... that sucks! but o-well. Thanks you for the responses!

I was excited to see that my favorite turret won the votes and the upgrades are now on sale for 50% off because... I've been trying to upgrade my Ricochet as best as I can with as many crystals as I can find, but its a slow processes and now I am to the point that each upgrade takes 5+ hours. So, the other day I decided to spend REAL money and purchase crystals.... My turrets are not ACTUALLY on sale! I'm very familiar with the prices of my upgrades and now when i try to upgrade, its full price! Full price to purchase upgrade, full price to speed up and sadly FULL TIME to upgrade. Also, since i am in complaint mode.... the purchases i did make with REAL money (not the transaction but rather inside the game) were useless! I bought a paint that is supposed to protect me from fire and ice and its almost as if i didn't buy anything at ALL!!! i saw ZERO performance increase! Why did i spend 9,000 crystals on a paint to protect me from fire and ice if it WONT PROTECT ME?!? even when i play lower rank tanks where I KNOW their tank is not as good as mine..... I am a fan of the game and want to continue to play but it's starting to really feel futile.... Futile = bored. Bored = no more game play. No more game play = no more real money! :-) Please advise. -DJRockinRob
