Completed Ideas for Overdrive:- Dictator

[Best_of_thunder_2015 1,354]

After, Reading the replies which was given by PracticeParkourStunt... (Thanks for opening my brain in advance).

 

I really felt bad why dictator did'nt get any unique ability, so I request you guys to see my ideas and PPS's to.. 

Dropping a fake gold box to create diversion is good idea right ? for taking flags from opponent, we can use this.. but every 3 minutes we can't drop a gold which is 1000 valued.. so, the random system chooses the crystal amount between 10-100 or just 10 really some crystal value should be given since they don't know really gold box is falling.. 

 

when this fake gold box is falling.. opponent's team will be announced as "goldbox will drop soon" where for us "fake goldbox will drop soon"

A good idea for diversion.. it can be enable in DM's where we can stack players to come in one point and thus, we can hunt them.

I think this would be a great idea for Gold Boxes and not for Dictator since developers already decided which over-drives will be given to the Hulls and Dictator is not without one, Dictator will have the current over-drive we have so it is not like Dictator is left behind unless you mean that it is old and you wanted something new.

so, what about purchasing it using crystals ? 

and thanks for keeping it Under-Review  that's why I hate you hate.. Your hate-ness really hate me a lot thanks hate 

[Maf 32,338]

It's an interesting proposal, but I don't see how the current overdrive isn't a unique feature. Dictator will be the only hull that will have that kind of ability, so just because we already used it before for quite some time doesn't mean that it's not unique.

Apparently Dictator's Overdrive isn't unique enough but no one complains about Hunter's Overdrive, which is borderline useless.

Hunter;s is the supply deactivation right? If it is it's basically only good at being a kamikaze then...

You kidding me? Do you know how great it would be when you have 4-5 druggers rushing your base, and you just drive in the middle of them, disable ALL their supplies AND put them all on cooldowns?

 

Even if some overdrives end up being weaker than others, they can be balanced by reducing their charge-up time, so that it will be weaker, but you'll be able to use it more often.

[Tani_S 736]

In addition you maybe will be able to use classic supplies while the overdrive of i.e. Hunter or Viking, whereas it is not the case for the Dictator Overdrive. This is just a guess, but anyway this could be considered as another way to balance out Overdrives, besides the charge up and activation times and the ability to share them.

[r_Issimo2 1,495]

Actually, this Fake Goldbox idea could be a good complement to Hunter's useless Overdrive. (Cow forbid they implement the Overdrives)

 

Hunter's Overdrive: Supply Deactivation + Fake Goldbox

 

You activate the Overdrive.

 

A Fake Goldbox will be announced as a regular Goldbox for everyone, except for the poor person that owns a Hunter, who will see the word "Fake Goldbox".

 

But that will not activate the other part of the Overdrive which is to deactivate enemies supplies. That will require a second click of the Shift button. That means that she or he can go to where the Fake Goldbox will be dropped and deactivate the enemies supplies there if it is not killed before she or he gets to those enemies.

 

Of course you can just start killing those enemies from a distance or steal a flag if no one suspects it is Fake, because if you tell your freinds and they don't go for the Fake Goldbox the enemies will know it is Fake. But what if it not fake, what if you used the Overdrive right when a real Goldbox was announced?

 

Maybe, just maybe, Hunter needs an Overdrive that drops a Fake Goldbox and gets a full set of supplies activated just for that Hunter.

And then a nug Mammy Isida M0 comes rushing in with his OP combo and kills you without supplies. Bravo.

Nah, it's good as protection. Maybe in Highland? You are on blue team, you and a BP guy go for flag, you jump in press shift, BP guy gets away and activates bomb. Sort of kamikaze but more protection :p

Are you kidding dude, everyone drugs so it is great. D

 

 

 

I thin dictator’s overdrive is not unique but very beneficial.

what's the point of disabling their supplies by going in the middle when you ca just go in the middle and instantly blast them all to kingdom come with a nucleur bomb?

 

unless hunter's supply deactivation includes making gold boxes that have already been dropped by players but haven't gotten caught dissapear then hunter would have the best overdrive ever. if not, it's basically wasp overdrive but noober, and completely nothing in no drug battles.

[LittleWillie 3,199]

I never go for GBs (unless they fall into my lap, of course). So while I would like this I suspect the vast majority of Tanki players would riot. :)

And then thr 4-5 non drugged tanks kill you. We are back to kamakazi.

 

ALSO: Just how often will you  have the chance to even try this? This is just lazy development brainstorming.  There is an OD that drops all supplies. So let's make one that does the opposite.  Will it actually work?  Brainstorming session dign't get that far.

 

These ODs are going t have 2 or 3 that are useful essentially all the time and the rest will come in handy every so often. You'll soon see only a few hull types in play - at least with players who have a choice.

Are you kidding dude, everyone drugs so it is great. D

Unique means "one of a kind" or "exclusive to".  All 7 announced ODs are unique (exclusive) to one hull type.  That includes Dictator under the announced future system.

I’m very against this idea. Personally, I think the value of the Gold Box should remain the same and only be changed when there are celebrations or something special going on. The Gold Box Supply has already devalued the Gold Box dramatically and personally, I think Gold Boxes are one of the best things TO ever came up with, to stuff around with the values would be silly.

Good times, when two golds falling in one battle was actually something.

[Maf 32,338]

Because a bomb will have a delay timer, so enemies can move away, and it probably won't deal such crazy damage that everyone in range will get insta-killed. On the other hand, Hunter's supply works instantly.

yes, they kill you, but that's why overdrives are a team feature. I.e.you use it for the sake of your team. This is particularly useful in the scenario I described, where a bunch of enemies with supplies are attempting to steal your flag.

 

You could also use this in normal combat, where you're facing one or two enemies and disabling their supplies (while retaining yours) will allow you to easily deal with both of them.

You 're saying this because you are wiki editor and if this comes to act yo need to write pages of it Lolll

Dropping a fake gold box

Maybe not that, maybe summoning "ghost tanks" Tanks that are self-driving, but deal no damage. Will have the name bot, then the user of the overdrive. It summons a duplicate of any nearby teammates. Hence the name, dictator

[Maf 32,338]

Completed

 

Since the idea is to give Dictator a unique ability, I'm calling it completed. Dictator now gives additional 50% overdrive charge to all teammates within the radius.

I don't understand why the name dictator means a bunch of bots as fakes around you.

The link you gave says the following: A dictatorship is an authoritarian or autocratic type of office or government where there is absolute control of one person. In other words, the dictator has total power and rules everything.

 

I actually agree with your idea-just the name dictator-that it controls the people around it is to choose to give your constituents bread-if you will pardon the analogy. Dictators don't go around with fake people serving them?

 

On the other hand the big hull is called a dictator because of its size-and dictators definitely do go around with a lot of doubles.

[ILiveOnTheChatBox123 936]

I think it should send 4 fake tanks that will each go at half your maximum speed in each direction.

To your team it should look like a tank about to spawn, but to the enemy it should look like a regular tank. It will not take any damage-and it will let some shots through. It will go for 10 seconds and then will disappear.

I know that Maf thinks that the dictator should be good with that overdrive, but I respectfully differ.

Is this what you imagined though?
