I know. Right now it stinks.

Just wait until physics! ;)

It doesn't stink. :wacko: Was playing with Colonels-Brigadier today with M1 Wasp/ M1 Ricochet. I know, not much of a help. However, the team was winning 10-0 and still climbing because they had like 6 druggers, and the blue team had none. ..

 

  • Awesome Kill-stealer
  • Very Fun/Flexible weapon
  • Takes practice- A lot of practice, thus making it a weapon well worth it. It will last you for quite some time. ;)

By the way, you know the Silence map? Well if you're on red team, try to sneak up on the ramp to the left. (Red team's view)

 

Then with Ricochet, quickly hide behind the houses to the side of the cliff. Go stealthy and hop down next to the red pipe to the wall.

 

Here's the fun part. Clear out any snipers that use that spot. The snipers usually use that spot to pick off opponents trying to get to the ramp, or weakening their opponent's Armor drastically, or in other words, your teammate's- something you do not want. So after you've cleared them out:

 

Use your Ricochet effect to shoot at the walls from your enemy's side, in the direction to your own team .There are usually some enemies there preventing your teammates from climbing up the ramp, taking your enemy, and stealing the flag. Not to mention it'll be a nice stealth attack to clear out any Isidas backing them up.   B)  I did that today and the enemy were oblivious. After I fired like 15 shots, a Viking/Rail finally notices me but doesn't even get to take a shot. He's dead from my M1 Ricochet! :lol:

 

Yes, M1 is able to kill. Now think of it after Physics update. ^_^ Ricochet's a very good weapon. Excellent for master Strategists. :o

 

 

Reason why I was using Ricochet/Wasp? Hehehe, :D

 

Well apparently Raphael's Video inspired me to use that tactic he showed when he used Hornet/Ricochet. That was absolutely genius! So I wanted to use that tactic too before Parkour is taken away from Tanki Online. :P Not to mention it'd be a bit more challenging with Wasp. Haha :) But shucks, couldn't find a good Kungur battle. But I think it all evened out. Found a good strategy for Ricochet that doesn't necessarily involve Parkour unless of course you think simple things such as hopping down from a small cliff is also considered parkour. . .. haha :P

^Sorry thats not what i meant. What i meant was it will be way better after physics. To many people it sucks. But thats not true. Very well said did you know that. I also like Raphaels video. Rico can be used in many ways and very useful if used right. :)

Out of all the turrets, I think ricochet is the most powerful m0 turret. I was playing on rico m0 on my noob account and I was pyning everybody! My d/l was like 6.00

might be, freeze M0 is good too :)

in talking about rico and kill steal; people don't forget the entire mass of the team will get weakened by the presence of a rico with you, its not just about having skills, its too slow to kill other enemies or even what some of u said "AM happy i can steal kills," and what about your team  "the sum of damage your team can cause to the opposite? u got what i mean?

Not everything's a darn CTF match. <_<  In DM's I have to be careful when Ricochets are around. :rolleyes:

 

Either way Ricochet will be boosted due to Physics update. So no worries.

Yep. Ricochet's turret looks real nice. Wish the what it shoots out weren't ''spheres,'' though. It'd look a tad bit better if it had some sort of tail trailing behind it. Like a comet. No? Especially since the Physics update will make the projectiles go faster. . .:P

K. :P

 

 

anybody heard anything about the time of the new physics of rico from the russian society?

Too lazy to do that. I don't want to Google-translate every one of those posts. . .

Why? What's the reason? I'd say the maps/guns/home screen are fine. Especially the home-screen.

 

They are planning on adding more maps/guns I think.
