Twins....

 

 

Really easy to counter with Rico, but still a fearsome turret when it catches you. 

 

Infinite reload really pisses me off.

twins = no skill tomato is right nub

dude next time keep your comments to ourself if you do not know about a turret..every turret needs skill.twins has best roration in game.people who play with twins who are noobs never learn to rotate turret.its an exciting turret.if you want strategy use rail...

because people have to work harder for their kills so they feel twins is bad.

twins is like a soldier.it fights.its most exciting un in game with fire

i eat ricos for breakfast.i use fully mued rico m2 as well.so I know ricos weakness.using twins m2.i run around rico and let his balls finish..!!!and then hes mine..to be honest 1 vs 1 rico might win..just might..but 1 vs all.twins wins...over rico.due to lack of reload and finishing of balls of rico.thats why rico struggles in DM..

best thing about twins is unlimited fire and good knockback...i wonder if you have encounted fully mued M2 twins yet!

Hello. İ need help.

İ am generally a shaft user, but by the way i am a twins user. İ using twins M1 with Dictator M2. İ didn't buy twins M2 because some reasons.

 

Problem is this:

Generally i using twins while turning around the map i try to catch low heal opponents and i don't go to middle of map much.

With this way, i get many kills. But problem, twins's DPS is low i think so it kills medium hulls slowier than some other guns. While this, many times another playet steaks my kill, so it will be anoying. Generally steak kill from twins is too easy.

 

Twins M2 is too expensive i think.

 

i want to catch opponents quickly and by the way i need a good weapon for killing heavy targets and twins is the best for killing heavy targets.

 

Do you have any idea foe me?

Twins is beyond doubt my least favorite weapon. They take absolutely no skill to operate yet they deal a ridiculous amount of damage plus the shots do not need to reload. Whats even more annoying is that they can knock you off your aim and being a sniper i can tell you first hand how annoying that is. 

I've seen noobs that use twins who dont even know how to turn the turret. In my opinion Twins needs to be seriously nerfed. 

Wrong, twins needs more damage in my opinion, with mammoth it doesn't take much skill, with viking, hornet, hunter especially dictator, it takes a lot of skill, besides it was already nerfed a bit in the last rebalance, and there are lots of noobs who can't control other turrets well either

 

in fact 95% of tanki's twins users uses mammoth twins and barely moves at all.  :lol:

In small maps, its relatively useful, since theres no where to go, in large maps, you would get destroyed

 

By the way i've only seen an increase in viking - twins users... Where'd you get that statistic from?

Why its worse than ricochet:

 

Twins depends a lot on sheer damage power. But ricochet has significantly higher burst damage in one clip. It is rare for a ricochet not to be able to kill one tank in its ten shot clip, so the fact that it has to reload afterwards makes little difference.

Twins has no way of shooting tanks behind cover, or using cover to protect itself. To fire twins, you have to be sitting out in the open, shooting at an enemy right in the open. You can't duck behind buildings are walls and then jump out to shoot, like railgun or thunder. This makes it lose some survivabliilty, and is one of the major flaws of twins. Ricochet can use its ricochets to hit enemies behind cover all the time.

Ricochet has way better range than twins, allowing it to kill a lot more enemies.

Twins is hard to aim. If only the corner of a tank is poking out from cover, you can only hit it with one bullet every two. Ricochet does not have this problem.

 

Pros:

Cooler looking than ricochet

Can hold back a lot of tanks for a long time. Once Ricochet shoots its ten rounds, it is as vulnerable as a smoky without critical hits.

Good, good, yes BUT; these are important if you want to kill a light tanker generally weak paint players.

What about others?

I think twins is fairly balanced and I have been using it since I started playing the game. I have an MU'd m2 twins atm.

 

The fact that people say its needs no skills, is totally absurd. twins needs more skills than an average turret in tanki because:

1. firstly you can't hide when you're shooting which means you gotta be quick on your hull and have a different direction of movements so as to dodge enemy fire.

2. If your moving as much to dodge you gotta keep that aim in check, since twins fires at a lower velocity than say rico, the enemy has more chance of dodging it, meaning that you have to anticipate the movement of the enemy while moving yourself and dodging his shots and keeping you aim true.

 

If that doesnt require skill, then I dont know what does. People just tend to focus of twin mammoth you sit on the flag but thats not a twins attribute rather the capacity of the mammoth to take in many shots so it doesn't require movement.

 

IMO twins players on a light hull is both OP and hard to aim at, since its impact cumalatively makes it impossible to aim at it. If you miss a single shot against a twins, is hard to recover since its continuous damage will finish you before you recharge, turrets especially shaft, thunder rico, and rail having a slow reload have to watch out, though an MU'd reload of thunder will make it even against the twins

p.s so its not just placing a brick on space and pointing  :P
