Rail/Thunder/Freeze/Rico m2, which should i buy?

Ricochet gets better at M2-M3, but if you want to be safe, then I'd upgrade either Rail or Freeze.

Railgun is fun, but at your Rank you'll only be able to use it effectively in TDM. Use it on a Wasp and use Guerilla/Hit n' Run tactics. Avoid running into open space and Shafts. At CTF it'll be useless. At TDM it will be amazing. I just battled Loktinho today. TDM Polygon match, he had M2 Mammoth / M2 Railgun, I had M1 Wasp/ M1 Railgun. Good Crystals, his combo on drugs is scary. Edited June 7, 2013 by r_DidYouKnowThat0

^ I do not agree. Railgun works really great in CTF and DM.

I do well in TDM/DM, but on CTF that's a whole different matter. I shoot the guy, then 3 seconds later a Thunder steals it. I hit another guy, an M0 Isida kills him. After a 30 minute battle I only get like 11 kills, and 110 points or so when in TDM I'll be having much more points. In TDM when you shoot the person, he's basically yours already. It splits the points in a fair way unlike CTF. Sure in CTF you'll be good for defending, but it's a sacrificial tactic. You're protecting your team, enabling a bunch of strangers to win, in exchange for you yourself losing. In DM it's everyone for themselves and all and it's much easier. That's my view anyway. Besides, IceRugby is already a high rank, so I doubt Railgun M1 will do that good unless in TDM/DM.-----------------------------------------------------------But then again it may be because of my Battling style. I don't tend to camp and Kill-steal. In CTF I stay on the move and shoot every moving thing I see which results in not killing him fully and losing the points. I guess you can try camping and actually trying to intentionally kill-steal. I think one of the best uses for Railgun in CTF is the recoil. I flip over Wasps -> Hornets -> Vikings- Especially when they're on Nitro. Just hit them from the right angle- usually on the corner or tip, however that will be more difficult. When 50% of their body is dangling off a cliff, don't shoot the corner. I once did that and it ended up turning the Hornet 180 degrees and it didn't kill him. He ran away and took our flag before he got killed by another Tank. In that case, just shoot them right-square in the middle and tip them over. Lol. Better safe than sorry.

I'm pretty sure I know what I want to do, but I'm going to ask here anyway. I already have Thunder M2, Railgun M2 and Hornet M2. Should I get Firebird M2 or Mammoth M2?

[Zero-nl 36]

Why do most people doubt between OP things? :D

Both are very good and IMO best in small and medium sized maps, but both can serve as a defender very well in bigger maps as well. I'd say: what would you like better? Another hull another turret? (I supposes you already have m2-m2)

Also, look at the stuff you already have. Do your turrets fit with a big, slow Mammoth? (For example, I wouldn't take Railgun Mammoth) And like everyone knows, short range guns are best attackers on a light hull. If you want to be a defender with your Firebird though, you can also take a heavy/medulium hull with it, if you already have one of course. (If you buy Firebird instead of Mammoth, I suppose you take a medium hull as defender as nearly no one has Titan as heavy hull on these ranks.

Shud I wait fr sale to get M1 Hornet?

[r_DidYouKnowThat0 1,662]

Shud I wait fr sale to get M1 Hornet?

Of course you should! That thing is a whopping 23,100 Crystals for M1. Wait until Sale. If you wait for sale, you'll save 6,000 - 7,000 Crystals, and you can't earn those in 1 or 2 days. This is a rare opportunity. Wait for the sale.

 

And by the way, don't try to clean your Crystals out every time there is a sale. For now keep the extra Crystals you saved when you buy Hornet M1, and keep saving. In the future, buy either your first M2 Weapon or M2 Hornet. On New Years' there is probably going to be 30% off sale, which is when you should get M2 Hornet or an M2 Weapon. Right now stay with a basic paint such as Safari, Metallic, Lead, Forester, or anything like that. However, I think 7 months is More than enough time for you to earn M2 Hornet or M2 Weapon. Lol.

Thanks, I have Dragon paint and after M1 Hornet I will have 3 M1 hulls and weps. I was thinking of wasting the rest of the crys as I have 20k

NO u should always save up your crys..... save em for m2's

20,000 Crystals? Save them. Do was IceRugby says. Do not waste them. Keep building on top of your stock of 20,000 Crystals until you get your first M2 Hull/ M2 Gun. Then you can go off-track a little and buy another M1. By the way, why Dragon paint? It's expensive and utterly useless since Ricochets are almost extinct. Better off using Metallica or Forester. However, do not waste your crystals.

Ranked to 1st Lieutenant and I feel silly not having an M2 Railgun.

Looking for a good and nice paints. Paints with cost of 5k - 7k will be fine, since I could buy them at the sale.

Go with something like Forester or Metallic. Freeze will kill you and there are barely any Ricochets.

Don't get the paints with no protection. They are a waste of Crystals unless it was like one of those Parkour contests where you needed white paint to participate. Get Lead.

[MTAOTHE 19]

I am using m1 smoky and now I will buy hornet m1 what should I do next wait for m2 or buy paint? If yes which paint would you suggest to me I ussually play in iran CTF. so I am looking for protection agains thunder and richo

[jordanrusson 3]

All M2, which one should I get?

-Rail/Wasp

-Rail/Hornet

-Freeze/Hornet

I love Wasps speed, but it costs a lot...I could do with hornet as well. I like freeze but love rail. My main question is wasp or hornet? Wasp is better for parkour and is harder to control, but I enjoy the challenge. Hornet Costs less and is alright for my style, which is camping as I progress toward the flag. Hornet has a little more health and a little less speed. Honestly, cost is not a problem and I have no idea what to do.

wasp is a lot better at your rank now you can upgrade to m2, get it if you can. If not, then get m2 hornet as it is cheaper.

As for which turret? Go with rail, since tanks at your rank get a lot more health, it is a lot more common to see m2 freeze being used with m2 viking or even mammoth at your rank, sometimes m2 hornet but they aren't that good

Thanks! But me and you are the same rank...and another thing. Even m3 wasp can die from one shot at an m3 rail. Is this a problem? Because even a protective paint can't stop it all the time...so which paint do you suggest?

Wasp m3 has 150 HP. A high damage Railgun m3 shot does about 160 HP max I guess. This means, you need 10 HP protection. 10% of Wasp m3 is 15 HP, so if you buy every single paint with 10% or more percent Railgun protection, you'll be fine.

Being same rank doesn't matter, as long as you know what you're saying than you can still give advice ;)

m2 wasp is very quick, even if you don't have railgun protection paint ( which you should have such as corrosion or other paints which have railgun protetcion) you can still use it's quick mobility to dash in and out of cover, railguns shouldn't be too hard to dodge as long as you keep an eye on your surroundings.

[Bacia_Da_Boss 4]

Yes I finally got m1 rail today!

I spent the day one-shotting wasps, hornets, and hunters and two shotting everyone else :D.
