Not the tank puns. :D

Should be, I mean, it's the game's freaking birthday so why wouldn't they?

When will you get it through your thick skull? I said I want Viking to have more weight and less speed because it performs better with stability than without for turrets that actually need stability like smoky, thunder, striker, Vulcan, railgun, magnum, and shaft. In the high ranks, the number of close to short range Vikings out number the mid to long range Vikings by about 10 to 1. The speed nerf would likely see this population start to even out a bit more. Anyway, you wouldn't understand because you're just a low rank.

I forgot to tell him that if we swap the speed and the acceleration of Viking and hunter, many people would still complain that Viking is too fast. That's why it's better to trade the speed and weight stats of the two hulls, logically and balance wise.

(1) very unlikely to happen. (2) maybe, but it'll more likely to just be double battle funds. (3) quite likely to happen. (4) most definitely will happen.

Seems pretty selfish.

Ok, that's what Ive been thinking.

So what does the white in the players nickname mean? (Not the newspaper helper, the one where I can't go to their forum profile). Does it mean that they violated the rules or something?

Same, unless you get enough crystals to afford 2 micro upgrades plus one speed up.

Because most people think that only health and speed gets you to places when in reality all stats are important.

Hornets OD can also ignore enemy protections, except mammoths overdrive.

No, I wouldn't. Not unless you're a big buyer, which I don't think you are. I would just MU and wait it out.

What did you buy a Viking for exactly? Oh let me guess, so that you can catch up to enemies better using firebird or isida. Oh wait, you can already do that with hunter because of acceleration. What you said sounds pretty Damn selfish. I just want what's best for everyone. So rethink before you bring this irrelevant crap up again. ;) And the reason I want Viking to swap at least the speed and weight with hunter is because the speed difference between the two hulls is barely noticeable while the weight difference is significantly noticeable. Well, I guess I shouldn't be too hard on you on this point because you're low ranked and you would understand anyway. Hunter has many advantages over Viking while Viking only has one small advantage over hunter.

You can also try the technique where if an enemy is too close to you, you can aim for part of a wall that's closer to them than it is to you. I don't find myself in these situations very much, but when I do, it's a very nice tactic to utilize. And anyway, my m3 thunder will be 7/20 in a few days.

Ok thanx.

Some words to be added in the dictionary: Stock (turrets): another word for standard; used to describe an unaltered turret; for example, stock thunder, stock Vulcan, stock hammer. Camper: also used to describe someone who spends a significant amount of time in the battle in one spot picking off enemies.

So about the gear score: would I be able to get 2000 points if I were to fully m4 a turret or hull?

What's wrong with having sales? Both free players and buyers can utilize them.

Surprised that you haven't questioned about alterations, over drives, containers, shot effects, Matchmaking, etc.

As a long time thunder loyalist, I can say that thunder can still compete against 25% and even against 50% protections, however you're right that at about 25% protections, the damage reduction does become quite noticeable. And the less damage you deal, the more time is wasted on that opponent. One trick I've learned the past few months is that if I see the enemies double armor or titans dome about to disappear, I would wait for it to disappear then I would equip double damage and nail them with the blows. This has helped me get a lot of kills.

Many won't care about the turning speed nerf since they'll just be too ignorant. Plus it doesn't make sense for a hull with lots of weight to be so fast. Also, Viking haters will still complain about it being too fast, but now there'll be no counter against it, except with OD.

But then that wouldn't make sense because then hunter won't be able to use its rocking ability as much, and Viking would still have its aim knocked around like it does now.

This was exactly what I was saying last weekend, wasps are dominating team battles in the low ranks.

Apparently Ares (the future new hull) already has an OD planned, all I know is that something will shoot out of that hole it has in the front which might go through props. Well, everyone's been complaining about dictators lack of a personal buff with OD. So this idea came out.

Well, why not swap the speed and weight stats of Viking and hunter then?
