completed Show Overdrive star on enemy tanks

[dupuy 318]

Administration,

 

 

I would suggest that we should be able to see when over drive is available for enemy tanks, as indicated by a star. When you use a supply, that supply is shown below the nickname of the tank that uses it. Why not do the same with overdrive, as it uses supplies as well. Please consider the idea at least.    Thank You!--------Dupuy

I think this is done on purpose to create an element of surprise and/or to not clutter up the interface. But I suppose your logic does make sense.

i'm with @Maf on this one, i use overdrive usually as an element of surprise, a scary surprise, it's really fun when someone use DD and think he can kill you but out of nowhere you activate your overdrive and he know at that moment he made a HUGE mistake xd

 

that single moment is priceless, and that's why we should keep the current overdrive as it is, but i think your idea can be added as an extra feature in pro battle (option to show/hide overdrive) this way you can have the best of both worlds.  :)

Yeah @tankcalm's idea would work since it's fun that enemies can't see YOUR overdrive when it's ready and u basically surprise them and, on the other hand, many people prefer it where you could see the enemy's overdrive when ready so Tanki should let it be a pro battle option.  ;)

It's better as a secret.

I'd like to see the enemy's OD, but I don't want the enemy to see mine  :D

 

Since that's not possible, let's just keep it a secret.

I agree with you. This surprise for the enemy is good because the enemy won't know who to target so he just kills anyone. This update would likely make the enemy target the ones without overdrive and would create a bit of a disaster.

Meh...

 

Keep it as this! I do not support this idea! (even if I am known as idea supporter :P)

 

This should be just a secret, like the S _ _ _ _ _ _ _ _ _ _ paint

soo, when is this getting implemented?

No. Overdrive should be kept as an element of surprise.

The majority of Tanki uses OD as an extra Repair Kit, agreed? Yet, Tanki doesn't show when an RK isn't on cooldown, because it would completely change gameplay.

 

If you make OD visible, then you would have to make all supply cooldowns visible too, or the entire idea doesn't make any sense.

And then comes the moment when he activates his overdrive seconds later and you already lost health and you die full of double surprise

Not the best idea. But I can understand why they have done it, it is relatively easy to do.
