Extremely rare occurrances


 Share

Recommended Posts

One of the rarest things that sometimes happens is when two players with instant-damage turrets kill each other. I mean, with burn or projectile turrets it's fairly common for them to get killed, but then they get a kill post-mortem, but when, say, two Smokys are shooting each other, they have to fire at the exact same moment in order to be able to kill each other.

 

Oh and I have a gold box story too. One day back in 2012 (before the gold siren was a thing) I was in a battle on Polygon and saw the gold dropping nearby, I went to the spot, stood under it, and when the gold was 1 metre above my tank the server restart happened and the battle instantly ended. RIP.

Back then.....when a gold box....really felt like catching Gold....

With railgun, when you are aiming at enemy tanker A, you press space bar but enemy tanker B shoot at you and makes your tank shift in his direction, and boom the shoot is released straight at tanker B and kills it.

I got not so long ago a GB when just antering a game and the GB landing in front of me . Even if somebody tells me , yes somebody here witnessed it also , i would still find it extremely rare since in the 1000's of games i played , it only happened 1 time .

I once had a match where everyone knew what those little white stars were. They even knew what button they had to press to use and share it.  Sorry, not got the video but if it happens again in my lifetime I will do my utmost to record it.

rank wise I mean, matching 6 ranks up to a Lt. General

you know, only like 1 in 100 legends have 9999 GS as well as the full module collection... so i think that you shold be placed in full legend battles forever if they want to make battles balanced

What do you mean why are you in this match up? Your GS is 8999 - Meaning you are capable of facing Legends because your combo is M4. 

We are not placed in battles based on GS though...

 

One combo at 8999... next combo could drop to 6999... good luck when enemies nullify your 8999 combo with 50% module.

 

It doesn't go by just rank, it's also your capabilities. You have a Legend account, so why not go up against Legends? Unless you want battles where your rank is Top Dog and you can take you M4s and slaughter M1s and M2s. Now your up against M3s and M4s and your complaining. If you can't take the heat then create another account and start over. 

He's complaining because enemies with way more ranks have much better options.  See above.

 

And it should be by rank....

 

If you are a Colonel and have spent wisely and earned lots of crystals, upgrading your equipment so it is better than your peers is the reward and you will thrive. 

Upgrading your equipment and having to play against Gismos is hardly a reward for the hard work you have done.   Really no incentive to upgrade much is there?

I could have easily pushed him off of that spot with my Titan. So could the other defender I was with who was also a Titan. 

 

You don't see this from players these days, especially generosity. Every time it happens, it's great to document it.

That happened to me today.  I spawned into a TDM on Brest to the left of one of the bases.  There was a GB just in front of the bridge and a crowd of reds coming over the bridge towards it (and me).

I moved forward while still spawning and finished spawning on the GB before the first red got there.  Took the GB and killed the nearest red.

I do not understand why some players use Magnum with light hulls. It makes no sense.

For the same reason they use a medium or heavy M0 hull. They feel safe hiding behind walls. Most are easy kills if you can sneak up on them.

I've tried it with my M3 Hornet and I loved it. I  would help the attackers by swooping in, and shooting them which would make them try to kill me while my teammates get the flag. I also use it for attacking and it's actually more efficient than I thought it would have been.

 

You're probably talking about the multiple Magnum-Wasps that keep their angle at about 20 degrees and shoot low-velocity shots. I don't understand them either. And if you're camping, why use a light hull when you can use a medium hull?

Ha. Got into a MM battle that my team immediately started dominating making half the enemy team leave. At 6 flags, A gold was gonna drop but then the Fire-Viking capped the flag before it could drop with the parachute. 

 

It happens so fast it was over as soon as it started. You certainly don't see that fast-paced turn of events often.

I've seen some succesfull games with it . Very fast hit and runs , moving all over the playfield using the reload time to find other location . It might not be the easiest of combinations , but done good it is a pain on some maps.

He might not have had M4, may be even just had M2, because without kits, you would get M3 only at Marshal rank. Before it was different, but that was before.

I didn't even check if someone replied to you. Like, uhhhh... he's above brig, he can get M4s. Also, he has M3s. Check <https://ratings.tankionline.com/en/user/4MATIC>. But, finally, he's a buyer, so yeah.
