Valid Medic icon for friendly Isidas

[murcielagoes 331]

(worth a try sharing an idea)

 

have a giant icon (prob a big plus sign) on where an Isida user is in the battle (only for your team)

I like this one. Seems very useful.

I liked it first :P

[dilsharox 2,395]

good idea useful in large maps

[D.a.n.t.e 475]

It will create an imbalance, the team with Isidas will have a greater advantage.

Lol what are you arguing? Obviously there's an imbalance but what does this proposed idea have to do with that imbalance?

Like the idea, maybe the icon may not be massive but definitely prominent.

[Fluffy_Puppy 590]

But the Isida may get overwhelmed if the whole team suddenly comes over wanting healing. And then there'll be people following the Isida around demanding healing...not sure if I want my whole team doing this to me :D

[FTW 240]

Yay I hope they add so I can finally increase my k/d once again knowing where my isidas mates at!  ^_^

but a little icon would be fine, bigger one would look horrible  :huh:.. however good luck. :rolleyes:

It goes like this: Currently the team with more Isidas has an advantage over the other team. If Tanki makes it easier for players to find their own team's Isidas, this advantage will be greater.

[GunslingerMongoose 198]

Ooh ooh maybe stick a marker above magnums as well so that Isidas know where to find them and then heal them. Oh and Vulcans too.

 

EDIT: Just realized this idea is actually somewhat redundant because you can just hit R or V in combat and see where your ally Isidas are. Sorta. If TO worked on cleaning up the R/V interface, it may be easier to find specific allies.

That's debatable. Sure, a team full of Isidas will be strong but so is a team with effective Magnums, Shafts, Thunders, Railguns, etc. I don't think your argument really has any weight to it, no offence.

The idea will make the imbalance worse, if your team has two Isidas and you're low on health, you'll know where to get healing from those Isidas, making you and your team stronger if the other team doesn't have any Isidas. In other words, the Isidas on your team will be more effective at healing.

 

But the Isida may get overwhelmed if the whole team suddenly comes over wanting healing. And then there'll be people following the Isida around demanding healing...not sure if I want my whole team doing this to me :D

Good point. 

 

And what if I want to kill instead of heal, for missions or strategy, team mates will appear on front of me wanting heal, and they'll be upset if I don't heal them after they came from the other side of the map just looking for heal.

To be sure, in most battles the number of Isidas is irrelevant because people drug as if there were no tomorrow, and the team with more Magnums beats the team with more Isidas (or any other team, to be honest).

 

That does not, however, mean that the team with more Isidas has no advantage over the other team. The team with more Railguns will be at advantage or disadvantage depending on the map and the other team's equipment. The team with more Isidas, however, always has an advantage over the other team because they can sickly reduce their DPS.

And they will follow you demanding healing, what about if you have no ammo left and you are under fire? You turn around and try to find cover but your stupid teammates are in the way trying to be healed by you.

[realbigred 101]

Please make the marker visible to all - a nice big red cross over a tank will make a great aiming point not for the isida but the easy meat limping in to get healed. 

 

Oh yes I like this idea. Concentrate the weak in one place. hahaha

People still follow Isidas demanding healing, and the Isida should not have any reason to decline their demand. Again, your argument has no relative weight over the debate.

The argument is that should it be implemented, this idea would exacerbate certain problems/issues/situations that are present in battles with Isidas. This is a valid argument, whether you like it or not.

[RIDDLER_8 5,553]

Good idea. There should be a + sign for medic Isidas who are on the same team as you in team battles and a - sign for enemy Isidas who steals your health to kill you.

im pretty sure that still upsetting even without the big icon

OMG! 

 

You, as a Legend, should be ashamed of saying that. I can think of many reasons of not healing a team mate, one reason could be that I'm going to heal another team mate that has the enemy's flag and is in bad shape.

I agree the argument about the icon creating imbalance is weak - the icon is just reinforcing one of Isidas attributes.

 

But I disagree about the "Isida should not have any reason to decline their demand".

Other tankers don't own the isida.  Isidas have multiple roles - one of them being healing.

If I have missions to cap flags, I'm going to do that in addition to healing. And sometimes that means someone has to fend for themself for a while or even suck back an RK.

I think the icon should look a little something like this:

Improving the Isida"s ability to heal is to op  and is out of the question. But when other players are need of quick recharge its usually hard for them to track down the Isida while low on health. The why we should create a signal that floats over the Isida tank that shows everyone in the team and only team battle where they are. This of course can not be seen by other enemy tanks. The improvement will be a quick glance at the SHIFT key that activates the Isida"a location by showing a huge green cross over the tank. Exception, this can not be seen by all of the clan if u press SHIFT. Thanks for reading and considering!
