Uhh...

Invest in some DD, you'll be more effective and deadly to everyone.

Or, dont be a drugger and learn to use other turrets too

[The-Operator219 1,929]

Just to give you a quick tidbit, I do drug when I need an extra boost.

But I'm not a jerk about it, and never have more than one active. (Not counting Nitro)

[Gigalink 116]

Isida and vulcans are way to over powered blah blah blah isida viking blah blah blah vulcan mammy.... we all see these combos atleast 4x every hour unless its  a format battle. and most of the times isidas take up more than half the team... you think the devs want this game to have everyone isida? since they are always talking about "diversity"

Tanki loves to make different turrets OP at different times of the year to force tankers to buy it. This time, Isida is in my opinion, the OP turret of the month.

I disagree, Isida is barely OP. If there's any turrets that are OP, it's definitely Firebird and Ricochet, they can kill you in like 3 - 5 seconds!

But isida has the selfhealing and team healing :/

Unless your a skilled isida player and you know their weaknesses, it can be very tough if multiple isidas charge you bases, as they can run away then heal too(unlike firebird and rico)

Btw, rico's weakness is short range weapons if they can get close enough, but mid ranges seem to be the worst since they can fight from a distance and its hard to knock off aim like railgun

If the game were balanced, we'd all have a D/L of 1.00.

[Loackie 269]

...If everyone were equally skilled.

Not quite.

1. There are still druggers and buyers, and tanki cant ever do anything about that unless they remove them from the game.

 

2. Some peopl arnt as skilled with turrets as others. You said yourself that your not so good at non-projectile turrets while others cant use projectiles

[MrCheezyPotato 850]

Also, some people have op stuff yet they have less than .7 D/L

I was including both #1 and #2. Nerfs the good players and druggers, and OPs the bad ones. Balance. One kill for every death you have.

Drugs being removed wouldn't necessarily make everything COMPLETELY fair.

There would still be the people that are just bad at the game, like this guy: http://ratings.tankionline.com/en/user/teufelhundotis/

And since there are varying turrets, there wouldn't be much balance if a Shaft or Railgun can take out half of your healthbar in one hit.

ok so someone with no limbs should be able to have the same score as someone from StarLadder (not that great but they're at least competent)

This is mostly due to the fact that they unlock at a higher rank (both commander) and you are talking from experience in situations where you and your enemy have default M3 (or slightly upgraded M3) equipment. If that's the case, then it makes sense for Fire and Rico M3 to be powerful because they unlock later than other guns.

 

At M4 level the situation is a bit better, mainly due to paints. All of the OP guns cause players to buy resistance paints from them, so suddenly Rico and Fire become not-so-OP with a load of Zeus' and Clay's around.

Exactly

 

 

Wow...that guy is actually really insane considering he has m0, his k/d is pretty low for his crystal/exp ratio to be pretty close to one...give him m2 hornet and m1 twins and he would destroy the entire battle feild....he probebly had a rough start so his eqipment is low along with his k/d

That's perseverance for you, he played JUST like the lower ranked players I've met.

Youv battled him before? Is that how you found a good example XD

[The-Operator219 1,929]

Yes I met him on a nice Future CTF a few days ago, it was simply hilarious. And yes this was on my main, so this guy is either a hardcore drugger or he's just VERY patient.

What are you saying!!!!!! Rico is so UnderPowered at this moment in comparison with Isida

Yeah....even at my rank....maybe he has a poor hull and great turret, as he can take out isidas easily but rico is high impact and decent range, so that destroys his tatics

[BlackWasp777 4,498]

@Isida-vs-Rico:

 

No offense.. but:

 

Do you guys honestly expect, that a mid-range weapon (Rico) should have the same strong damage as a close-range weapon (like Isida)?

Think of Rico's advantages (like four times the range!!), and make use of them.. As long as you don't use your advantages, you will find a lot of weapons overpowered.

 

And if you now think "the Isida does suprise me, too late for range" - then consider that your battlefield awareness is also something that you have to train, if you want to succeed. The Isida does not suprise you by coincidence.. they do so, as the Isida pilots have learned how to move in order to be a surprise. So you have to learn how to spot them early.
