plz don't update shaft i like it how it is it is unique how it is you can tell where it is looking like any other game by were it is pointing. besides shaft is suppose to be a sneaky weapon thats the point of it. This update of shaft will only make shaft a easier target by putting that laser on it people will know where they are and know were to shot them and then shaft would probably be the worst gun in the game cause you can move without people seeing you cause of the laser. i don't know about any one else but shafts my favorite and i love to be sneaky and i still get killed a lot and people still end up finding me and killing me so we don't need a laser i can tell all the time if a shaft is looking at me cause of were its facing. When i heard about the update i was very upset beuase i have always used shaft. 

I don't like people sniping my collective posterior off when I don't even know where the heck they are.

As funny as your post is, you neglected to mention another of Tanki's long-range sniping turrets. Railgun.

It doesn't have a laser on it, yet it is perfectly capable of taking a nice hunk out of your health. You can get sniped with out seeing the railgun. Why should shaft be any different?

 

I'm not going to add more reasons, since I've already mentioned them. Check my other posts if you want anything answered about this update.

Because the Shaft has a scope which allows you to aim exactly where you want to shoot; whereas, the Railgun does not. The Railgun uses an "Auto-Aim" type of feature to direct the shot, which doesn't always work. Example: You see an enemy, you point the Railgun towards it, and you shoot. But what if that enemy was on a higher level than you, or what if it was behind a barricade which had only a small space where you could see through it? This is where the Railgun would most likely fail to hit it's target. The Railgun's "Auto-Aim" system fails to perform when targets are on a high enough level, or when there isn't that much room to shoot through. The Shaft's scope helps with this by allowing the player to move the scope in four different directions (UP, DOWN, LEFT, and RIGHT). You do have a good point, but there is a reason why the laser will only go on the Shaft and not the Railgun.

 

Also, I know you may consider me as a "noob", since you're a lot higher rank than I, but this shouldn't come into play when discussing a topic such as this since I know how the game works, regardless of the fact that I am a "noob" to your level of players.

valid points. You really did your research.

Though rail-gun can actually shoot through narrow gaps, and at long-range, I would say its Auto-Aim works a whole lot better than shafts arcade shot Auto-Aim. Also, shafts scope does not grant full 360 degree firing up and down. While it does help because you can adjust your aim with more accuracy, I believe that is has roughly the same firing angle as any other turret. As another thought, there are ways to get around the height issue when firing. To summarize some of the numerous aiming and shooting guides scattered about the forum, If you move your tank back and forth, it can grant you greater firing angles, both up and down. This is something that a shaft does not have in scope mode, because the tanker cannot move at that time.

If you really do have a problem with rail`s auto aim, i recommend you look for one of the aiming guides. There`s one on the wiki.

 

For the record, I don`t consider you a noob, because you obviously learned a lot on you way to WO2. While you may be relatively inexperienced in terms of tactics or skill, you know enough to be extremely good.

Also, rail's auto might as well be better, as you do not need to aim, it does it for you.

It should be called SPLASH, because we have for example Thunder, I'm sure name comes from its thunder/ish sound, same goes to twins and rico. I think all the turrent names come from turrent specs.

 

So my suggestion is Splash.

sounds good.

His name, Osama, has no reference to Osama Bin Laden, in fact "Osama" is a common Arabic name, in which he used as a nickname.
