Well it's a bad idea if the devs want to keep adding new hulls to the game, because, like he said, if what makes the hulls unique were their HP and speed, if the devs keep adding new hulls these stats would end up being too similar. I don't agree with him that it's necessary for knowing what kind of OD someone has before they use it though, that could've easily been achieved instead with a symbol being shown above an enemy's tank.

The lightning from him could move across the entire or almost the entire map, so the flashes looked like Railgun shots, except they were clearly Tesla flashes. It spread from maybe most tanks in my team and damaged them all. The damage from each flash was small though, which made me wonder if it was a balanced augment and not a cheat. I tried to look for the Tesla player but could never see him, but I'd guess he camped somewhere.

You've convinced me that my OP was a bad idea.

I just made a post with an idea to give all the hull's different HP and speeds and also make it possible to choose what overdrive you want. When the post becomes accepted on the forum why not reply and support it? ?

Ok but then all the heavy hulls for example would not just have the same overdrive but also the same speed and HP. Their only difference would be how they look.

If all hulls had the same overdrive (giving supplies) there wouldn't be anything that made the hulls in the 3 categories different from each other.

I'm aware that this idea is really radical to how TO is. Anyway, since a part of this game's whole thing is the idea of building your own unique tank and playstyle, I think my idea would fulfill this idea more. Right now there's almost no variation between the hulls in the 3 categories, except for the overdrives and some acceleration and handling characteristics iirc. The hull's would again be all unique from each other, and there would be lots of more variations when it comes to building your own tank and playstyle. It wouldn't make sense to have Ares' and Crusader's overdrives on hulls without a gun attached to their front though, and perhaps there could be more limitations among the overdrives, as to which ones can be used on which hulls, to prevent combos from being overpowered, if that would happen. But ideally, none would be overpowered in any combo, so that there would be as much freedom of choice as possible. Also, augments for overdrives would be fun too, and also if overdrives in general were a bit weaker. What do you think?

If you're for overdrives that only give supplies, I assume you're also for all hull's having different speeds and healths?

Does anyone else think Ares' overdrive needs a nerf badly? Obviously its overdrive can't be like before, it was almost useless. But it's definitely way too strong the way it is now IMO. Makes the other heavy hulls much less viable.

I'm pretty sure I'm going to use ares, since it's imo the top 3 best hulls right now and its OD can wreck absolute havoc. I love scorpion, it's what I've wished railgun was, with its instant fire. What are your favorite hulls and turrets?

Thanks!

I still have some questions, hope you dont mind. At WO1 you said Mk3-10 hull, you mean turret too right? at Brigader/1 gold star rank you said "max drone", do you mean a new drone and not Brutus? What do you mean with "crystal augment"?

I could try to get one. It's easy to get thrown away if you land on an enemy with the OD on

Do you think it's suspicious to make such a detailed thing just for a background? I wonder if it's something originally made for a gamemode...

Thanks, that makes it clearer for me! I don't think I'll get a 2nd combo, 1 seems to be enough to complete missions and I also enjoy very few turrets and hulls. I guess it's good to upgrade a 2nd turret though if I got a good augment for it, even if I don't like it
