Declined Delay in self-destruction when up-side-down

[MigWell_666 13]

Hi,

Why is there a 5 seconndes delay after hitting the DEL key when your are up-side-down?

Could it be possible that the opponents cannot get points/kill when you are up-side-down?

Thanks

The 5-second delay is the penalty for your poor driving, or a reward for the enemy who managed to flip you over. After all, an upside-down enemy on the ground is one less active player on the enemy team, and that small 5-second advantage could mean the difference between a victory and defeat.

 

There's no reason to prevent opponents getting points from killing flipped enemies. If they choose to shoot an upside-down tank, then they penalise themselves by wasting time on you when they could have been doing something more useful for the team.
