Under Review Self Destruct chat command

[Sid2910 48]

it looks like no one has been even considering this post for a while now.....

But the Idea is kind of good actually.

very good if tankI added to command because i have mac and i cannot use self destruct :( i try many times without luck

I have a Mac too ... to self destruct you press Function (Fn) + Delete. If you got to Gen without ever self destructing you deserve a reward man ...

no that 10 seconds is for you to reflect on your life choices and cry 

Maybe they were flipped over by a team player or something?

 

You must cry a lot being generalissimo and no player goes without flipping over :p

Ok, the reason you should be able to cancel self destruct is simply this.

 

​Say you have a recoiless turret , (isida) and you flip on your side. You punch delete to respawn.

 

​WELLLLL... during that 10 sec countdown a helpful smoky teammate  knocks you upright with full hp. Isn't it annoying to no longer need to self destruct, but not being able to stop it?

no if you press self-destruct on  accident, or even on purpose, it should ask "Are you sure you want to self-destruct?" (something like that) then it gives a yes or no option. It should be an option because it's always a choice whether you want to self-destruct or not. This game becomes difficult especially when your in the middle of running the flag home. Recently, also, I discovered that if you go to a certain height in battle that you self-destruct. Every time, I ride a mammoth or I come crashing down on another tank, most of the time now I self-destruct. Self-destruct gives us deaths that shouldn't even a appear. It gives us deaths that don't even matter.

This is due to a false positive of the anti-fly hack... it assumes that you're trying to fly hack. The devs are working on improving it right now, I think.

why would anyone wanna press del when they are furious in the battle... there is no key next to delete used as cantrols...

 

How about Self Destruct not counting as a death? even if we fall out a map by accident.

this option was available long ago but was removed as players simply self destruct so that enemy doesn't kill him..this was unfair!

The self-destruction time has already been decreased to five seconds. No more time wastage... Also, I think no one would want to spend 3-4 seconds writing a command into the chat, maybe even more when you can press a button in a millisecond.

[DieselPlatinum 5,121]

We should be able to keep the delete button as our main key for self destructing.

 

The chat command would be a nice feature if your delete key isn't working but the command still works.

[DieselPlatinum 5,121]

How about if we had a feature to where pushing the delete key once will set you to say of destruct, pushing it again before the timer runs out will deactivate the timer and the black pop up, third time reactivated the timer, and so on and so forth?

 

 

 

 

Or is this too much work to add? :D

[Jboymark53 508]

I like the idea of double tap not a command, if there was a little child he would not know how to spell /destruct

[dan146_tanker 770]

I have seen many people saying they accidentally pressed delete in the heat of the battle and lose points, flags or sometimes a cool parkour trick.

 

So my idea is to make self destruct a command rather than a button.

 

E.g. type /destruct for it to activate.

 

 

If thats not possible how about 2x Delete key or long press the delete key for it to activate?

Question:

If your banned will this idea still work?

You deserve a cookie, almost 5 years without self-destructing :P

As HichigoShiiro is banned he has requested me to tell you his answer. "Yes, of course."

 

By the way, that is a good question.
