Twins self destruct

[a7x_Pedro48 13,999]

that is such a dumb change, its a short range in close gun and they add splash damage :angry: ....  Makes no sense

To force you buy the alteration.

To force you buy the alteration.

That's Tanki's idea of marketing.  Tanki does not believe in "the customer is always right". Tanki's idea of marketing is to browneat and coerce the customer to buy.

 

Fail.

it is the new splash damage update and if you r to close to someone then u will self-destruct

Actually, I have noticed that I did randomly self destruct several times when using twins (not splash damage this was going from a full health bar to dead without being shot) unfortunately, I don''t have any video of it happening, but it only happened when I was on top of another tank. I think it was usually when we both were firing. also happens when both tanks jump off of something at the same time.

were you playing on madness? it is probably because of the false positive of the anti cheat system.

Why is the topic still open??

Because the initial problem hasn't been solved yet.

Then I will add that it happened today too.

 

Wave, alteration allowed (no self damage), as soon as I touched my team mate shaft... BOOM: Gabe2607 self destructed.

You landed with your tank on your teammate or you just drove against the shaft?

Drove against the shaft...

LOL... however yesterday I died twice... no splash damage.... simply a good hacker :D   He killed me, than I asked: "do it again!" and he did it :(

 

I am guessing the fourth hacker I see in 1300 hours and the only good one so far.

That is not a hacker, if he did not have splash damage/ self damage, then he probably bought the twins alteration, which removes splash and self damage.

Two different episodes: the one I explained to @CooperO is not the one I mentioned on Feb. 12th.

That's odd, can you give any other details of when that happened? Things like what your ping and fps were (approximately), were you shooting or not, does it happen more often or just that once?

Twins used to pin me against a wall whenever they got the chance so I'm happy about this. Now I'm the one who can chase them (to make them self destruct) :D

It happens rarely (once every couple of months maybe) so it does not bother much. It happened before the changes to the twins as well. The common denominator is "contact with another tank" (in the last two cases, team mates tanks).

 

Unfortunately I cannot add more than that. And by they, not sure the problem is the turret or the hull (Hunter).

Got the alteration... :P

Players commonly complain about Twins requiring little skill for great performance. The developers thought that if Twins had self damage, players would have to think twice before attacking instead of literally holding down the spacebar 24/7. It's still really powerful, you just have to stay at least 4 meters or so away from your opponent to avoid hurting yourself. It's not supposed to be as good as or better than the dedicated close range weapons (Hammer, Isida, Firebird, Freeze) at point blank range.

Alterations make it useable for Defence still

i know this is old news but this twins self destruct still stinks.   Try battling  with someone that doesn't have self damage and they just close up on you  and your stuck, either keep firing and self destruct or hope they die first, then sit there and wait for there tank to go away without firing while some fire fly is burning you.   Dumb update.  Maybe worry about people drugging way to much.

Topic is about a technical glitch i.e. twins exploding for no reason. Happened to me one more time, but again it was a hacker. And I start to think it is a common hack used when in contact.

 

However I agree with what you said and that is why I could not stay 48 hours without buying the alteration. And now I kiss all other Twins ;)
