Is it better to drive Titan forwards or backwards for catching gold boxes?

[FC_BayernMunchen 1,941]

this is actually a serious question (im not kidding)

 

does titan push better with a certain side (front vs back), and is the front or back higher?

 

i want to know if driving forwards or backwards will give me an advantage for gold box

No Idea, never really used it. I know because of the flat back hunter works best going forward.

As far as I'm concerned, there is no significant difference.

 

 

 

 

Also, isn't this topic rather trivial?

Yes it is haha. For some reason I have a weird feeling that there's a difference  :ph34r:  :ph34r:

Actually, certain hulls move faster backwards I think.

Unless I misread it: Hornet moves faster in reverse.

The speed, pushing power and even actual shape (hitbox) of every hull in the game is exactly the same on the back and front. So there would be no difference.

 

In the future if you want to ask a question about the game, please refrain from creating new topics and use the official http://help.tankionline.com Q&A site.

 

Closed.

Sorry for the wrong info, turns out that hulls actually do have slightly different values for reverse and forward accelerations. You can see those values on the Wiki page for each hull. It seems to be better to push forwards with Titan in the earlier modifications, while M3 and M3+ are better at pushing in reverse.

 

Why that is the case - I have no idea.

thanks  :)  :) this is what i wanted to know

Correction to the above!

 

What is described on the wiki as "reverse acceleration" means deceleration ,  not some increased acceleration when going in backwards!

 

If that was the case we'll all be doing this now
