Oh now I get you. Yep that happens a lot at these ranks too. Some buyer comes and rekts everyone. Also TO MM makes me end up in matches that have 3-4 mins left with no players.

Wow that's weird. Wait what ?!

Ikr Viking overdrive feels almost meaningless. It does not go well with the name and the Hull. Also deciding what to buy has become a lot more harder. It's actually beautiful at M2 and above. M1 is decent too. M0 is just blunt. Like every other.

The cost is still to much -.-

Drones really do that ?

All the dates of discounts are here.

Welp. I still won't change my opinion. Drones are meaningless for people who haven't yet decided which equipment they want to use or what role do they want to play and are especially meaningless for beginners. For peoples who have maxed out their garage, well they can afford them. Else it's a waste of crystals.

That is interesting. But I don't feel that the outcome would differ much if you do not use drones. I mean I of course wouldn't know till I don't use them. But I sure have seen someone using them. There was a Staff Sergeant M2-Buying-Drugger who has Assault Drone I assume. He was OP. His GS was 5000+. That drone gave him supplies as he spawned. But drones are useful according to circumstances only. Like when someone is camping your base and you spawn with all supplies and can run away. Or for example you are using the Booster drone on Railgun with RD alt and you get a lucky shot on a JGR and one shot him :D Edit; Also I'd like your comment if I could. So consider it liked please.

lol that's true. BTW you participating ? I ain't.

I've decided. I AM NOT PARTICIPATING. I mean the cost of paints is INSANE ! 10k for one paint. Also all the 6 so called "Super Missions" are utter bull-crap. This war is only for die-hard players and buyers. This is meant for only higher ranked people. Lower rank people like me who've just started playing will get crushed. TO seriously needs balancing. lol. Can we do that ?

Well, gotta agree with that. Oh, I've never tried Striker. How is it as a turret ? :P

I am not one to boast my experience according to my rank. But I feel that Drones are meaningless. They don't effect the outcome heavily. Also the cost of batteries is INSANE. Who'd like to spend 300 per minute.

Well you might be right and that's just it. Such a powerful OD to kill one tank. Viking as I know it had the potential to take on a team with other 4 tanks (provided in the right hands). Compared to that, this is like going from God-tier to Beginner-level. And that is just the HARDEST part about it. How do you choose a turret that performs decent in almost every map. Let's say you take Smoky. As it does almost well in all MM maps and all modes. Now the problem here is that there won't be much damage during the OD and also the aiming will get a whole lot harder. Although it will be fun for people with Auto Cannon :lol: LOL Yep. :lol: :D People definitely aren't going to use it much. But it can be helpful in ASL and CP. Might even work out in CTF. So I DO get your point (I guess). But either Viking or it's Overdrive, a buff is needed.

Exactly.

Well you might think I can't say much. But I used to play this back in the old days. And yes the coming of these new Overdrives has changed the way the whole game is played. Now while buying items one has to go over all the stats of all the things and also choose a combination that suits most maps. Well there is no combo that suits all map now. Also one will have to keep in mind the overdrives while selecting what they buy. Overdrives can have a huge impact on the outcome of the game. They can literally change the whole tide. Like if you get the pun. So I can't say that any overdrive is the best. Each one has it's own perks. But they all sure are awesome..... However what I can suggest is that they do work on improving Mammoth's and Viking's overdrives a bit. Mammoth's overdrive can be very dangerous in close combats. It can almost wipe out a whole defending team. Viking's overdrive is just a bit too weak to be played in all modes. Sure it does magnificent in JGR but what's the use if its only limited to that. Also I feel it is a bit unfair as most of the maps don't suit the overdrive while Stock Viking is great for playing in all MM maps.
