Drugs or no drugs that is the question?

[RampagingVenom 554]

Just wanted you opinion about using drugs during battle.

 

Who are the true skilled die hard fighters?

Those who have no need for drugs who are the best of the best during battle or are they foolish?

Or those who use drugs constantly the 1`s who are afraid without them or are they the wise 1`s?

thanks for any replies :tank:

please you kiding me the drugs are for those who want to be always first and to show to the others their power in my opinion i think that drugging is for those and i don't hink drug is a good thing because tell that you are going to a bigger level and you are drugging all the time if you play at seomething like CSL or a tournament with no drugs how will you win? with drugs if you use drugs you have to cheat first and if you cheat you are a hacker and if you are a hacker you are banned for ever do you want to be banned for ever i don't think so so to my opinion drugs are for the weak players if you want to be a weak player be

Real players don't compromise their team by not using drugs. If the rest of your team is drugging, you have a responsibility to contribute to your team by drugging. Not doing so is cowardly.

[monkeyburn 13,540]

Druggies, have no skills. I have been with ranks higher than mine that do not know what to do in a confrontation, at that moment when their drugs run out. I don't know why, but when that happens, it always reminds me of "Boombox" when I first started playing. And no offense skitee, but one also has a responsibility to ones own skills, or not. In my opinion, It's the druggies who are cowards. I will not use drugs unless it is an emergency. And I have been in games where the majority of players on the other team were over-drugging. We met them with the same and wiped them clean...Bottom line...No skills.

If i am in the top 3 in a CTF game I will use DP to boost my score for more cry. And of course i drug when i go for flags.

Completely agree, most druggies do that. But it is always the worst situation to be in, in drug wars when your team just refuses to drug. Drugs strengthen you - everyone knows that. Yet these people would rather sit there getting absolutely smashed and let their team lose than use 2,3, and 4 to try to contribute to the effort. Those people are the true cowards.

 

And one or two circumstances where you wipe out druggies means nothing. Most of the best Tanki players drug. Go into no-supplies games if you want to avoid drugs.

I used drugs to specifically kill one person on a team mostly, but also to capture flags. That person left after having a D/L of 0.07

I Lol'ed at your post. Single a person out and pressure him to leave eh? I start drugging as soon as either an enemy uses drugs, or at least 2 other teammates start drugging. Even if it's just a Medical Kit, or just one 2X Armor, after I see an enemy do that I go full on drug. Drugs are most effective in CTF in my opinion. There are the smart druggers and the not so smart druggers. For example, this actually happened. It was Kungur map and we were winning in CTF 7-0. There are 2 minutes left, and a guy joins and starts drugging. He was the only one drugging. Results-> Dumb.

Tanki is an endless road where it is better to enjoy the drive then speed away to infinity. Drugging has no point. Spending more crystals then you earn is going backwards.

[r_55566320 2]

Drugs are for noobs who have no skill i nonly use drugs in emergency or if im outgunned i use my skills with drugs you can just charge into battle and not worry kind of boring but using skill is more exciting makes me feel like a real tanker

Aside from the fact that I did not specify how many times I was in a game were we wiped druggies out (more than one or two incidentally) when we met them with the same. And the embellishment of your term "coward", bolstered by your statement "Go into no-supplies games if you want to avoid drugs." directed at me. You seem to miss my point. So, let me clarify that in more common terms: "If brass knuckles are met with the same, then the fight is equal. The real coward is the the one who brought the knuckles into the arena first."

[r_Slash1524_20 23]

I have never ever seen a smart drugger execpt me in my whole tanki experience.

[cucumissativus 0]

there are five kinds of druggers.

1.  
   

   • the health kit user
      
     
   • the nitro user
      
     
   • the double power user
      
     
   • the double armor user
      
     
   • the mines user xD
      
    
   

thats all yolks ))

[CorvetteRacingLeMans 218]

1. Join battle, play hard.

2. Never ever spend one crystal on drugs

3. Get to top of leaderboard

4. Watch fund grow exponentially

5. Let your own team drug when things get tense

6. Win

7. Profit

 

This system never fails for me :D

[Zero-nl 36]

It barely does for me. My team is so "dumb" to live on the enemy base, what makes people leave.

Then new enemies come in, drug and our 7-0 goes to 7-8 as than, scared of the druggers,

my team leaves.. And my alone against 4-6 druggers comes to a loose of 7-10 if flag limit is 10..

[TankCraze 8]

When a player drugs at an even match, it usually means he wants to win or wants his team to win and/or get more kills. There's no problem with drugging as a boost for your team or yourself. People who drug usually start up drug wars, which isn't fun for the non-druggers, but it is what it is. When a player drugs at a match their team is already winning greatly at, that's when they're being foolish in my opinion. Suppose a 10 v 6 in silence. Druggers on the 10 player side are basically just acting foolish, unless the 6 player side is very experienced and holding up well. The only time you should drug is when you encounter a drugger on the other team, or you want to help boost your team.

I brought out fresh points, I didn't misunderstand your points. I just brought out fresh points.

 

Talking about brass knuckles, what if there was a fight where brass knuckles were legal? Surely it would be an ***** whose pride got in the way and refused to bring in the brass knuckles, only to get promptly smashed? What if there was a three-man team and one of the refused to bring in brass knuckles, no matter what? Surely they would only hamper their team?

NO! The point being: It all comes down to skill...I have come face to face with repetitive druggers, and met them with the same. They loose 80% of the time, and at that moment when their drugs run out, most of them don't know what to do. Maybe in your case you have not noticed this. I am not going to get into a points argument with you. And about the brass? What if someone didn't have the money to get the brass? Not everyone who plays this game is so fortunate. I consider the entirety of the team as a whole, and have covered for many teammates who recognizably have no battle supplies. That's why they call it team. The games are supposed to be fun. I have also been in a case where every opposing member has used drugs and led by a wide margin, leaving me to be the only member of my team. And even though I was the only one left, the opposing team continued to drug, destroying me every time I spawned. It was quite a sight. The moment I would come back there they were all drugged up. The funny part of all this, is that just before I left the game. I typed into the battle chat. "30 to 7 lead, and still drugging? Have fun playing with each other!" - There was still about 18 minutes left on the play clock. Enough time for me to get a bowl of oatmeal and then hop back in with a fresh supply of land mines, which I carefully placed among them, undetected. That was so funny, hearing the boom off in the distance, one by one. Slowly people joined my team (a lot of mams)...long story short. We plowed them into the earth, when all their drugs ran out. That is the only case I've use drugs outside of an emergency..."Skill rules!"
