Just a bit of help (guide)

[iNubCake 0]

This is my first post about a subject like this so don't bag me.

Step 1:Finding a good spot

There are two types of play that i know of, the type where you camp and wait for the enemy to pop up, or when you run into their spawn and try to blast em all away.

When camping find a good spot, one which is hard to get to, hard to shoot at and well covered. It might take time to get there but it'll be worth the trouble.

Some Examples:

Fort Knox 1 & 2- You go around the left of your spawn up the ramp, then turn right into the small narrow place. Its alright but if a fire bird/isida/freeze comes behind you your dead (and ricochet)

-Stay next to the ramp in your enemy spawn, every so often stick your head out, take a few shots and go back.

Combe- Try to get up to the spot behind your spawn, take cover behind the buildings (only works for one of the colors, other one just has a wall)

Deck-9- If you have ricochet you can get up to the top of the blue i think spawn, reverse into the wall and keep shooting the ground.

There are many more you just gotta find em.

When you rush, try go from the sides around into the base, don't try through the middle, you can but you might get seen easily. Go around the back and kill em. YOU HAVE THE ELEMENT OF SURPRISE!! NINJA THEM!!

Step 2: Finding Enemy

There are a few ways you can find an enemy.

Firstly you can just sit and wait until you see red or blue on your screen. This sometimes takes a while in a big map with not many people.

Second you can go explore, run around the map and you'll surely find someone.

Thirdly you look at top right corner of your screen. If one of your team-mates has died and you saw where, go near there. Look around to see if you can find the person who killed him/her, if your lucky your team would've already hurt them, providing an easy kill for you.

Step 3: Killing Enemy

With all the different weapons on TankiOnline you have to think of a different way to deal with each one. eg. with fire bird you don't go running up to attack it. Normally i reverse while shooting so you stay out of their range while still killing them. This also works with isida and maybe freeze (probably can't run). Or if you are cocky and tank stay on the spot and duel.

If your attacking whit fire bird/freeze/isida i wouldn't drive right up in front of them (unless your drugged up), try going around them, avoid being seen, get them from the sides and back.

Attacking a rail gun isn't as hard as many people think, if you get the timing right you can easily knock one out! Just before they shoot (when the tip lights up) shoot the front sides of their tank, if you get it right it will shift their tank aside and they will miss. You may have to miss a turn but it'll be worth it.

Attacking twins. I'm not really good at this because i use thunder, and my computer lags a bit, so whenever a ball hits me it sends my aim way off, and makes me miss. Normally i just leave if i see one :mrgreen: (if anyone would help me out a bit it would be greatly appreciated)

CTF

When capturing the flag i find it easier to go with an isida healing you or if you got one (its healing effect is quite useful). But you don't want a massive lumbering tank like a titan and mammoth (no offense to you guys). You want a small light tank that is fast, but not too weak otherwise your dead, personally i use viking, its not too slow and has the same hp as a m3 hornet and m0.

Try go through smaller areas, don't go running around in the open with the flag, making yourself an easy target, stick to the sides or along plants, not really useful but might help. You can also use drugs, but im not that big of a fan of them. N20, Double Armour, Health, Mines and if you like Double Damage (to kill anyone in your way)

Getting Crystals-

There are many ways to get crystals, some of them aren't that helpful.

You can camp and wait for them, this is probably the worst way, as you are taking up a room in your team doing nothing. But it will work.

You kill enemies and capture the flag, this may cause you to win, and raise the battlefund. Much more exciting and you also get exp.

Buy them, yes i know, some people can't get it. But it is also an option. ( i used this a bit :wink: )

 

Occasionally you will meet someone who says not to kill them. Just kill them, its a game where you're meant to kill the other tank, not some peace conference.

 

Thanks for reading this and i hope this might help you a bit. :)

Cya.

GOOD JOB INUBCAKE!

 

 

the way to take out twins is just to back off while making sure to keep ur turret perfectly pointed on them...but as you have lag...i can see how that would be hard.
