Which Overdrives do you want which Medium Hulls to have?

[lssimo 1,559]

This is an unofficial poll. Think of it as just personal opinions.

 

Personally I don't want the planned Overdrives to be implemented, but if I have to choose I pick the 2nd option.

The thing is you don't get to choose as it is already a done deal.
The only choice you have is which hull you will select for your battle.

Being a Viking player I prefer the way it is proposed for Viking.

I know this was pointless since the overdrive allocations were already decided, but I improved your poll to make it easier to understand. Keep this in mind if you make polls again in the future ;)

 

Old poll for reference:

None lol

I voted Activate Supplies for all three because I don't want Hull specific Overdrives, but I'd would have voted for a Hunter / Viking swap in the original poll.

 

As a Hunter / Smoky player, of course I'm interested in the Rapid Fire OD, but I can't see how it can ever be balanced (for any turret).

I think deactivate supplies is very interesting OD. So I would love to see that on viking or hunter. When playing CTF, combining deactivate supplies OD with Sprinter drone sounds like hell of a flag capper.

 

Think about it:

You have OD ready. When you get to to enemy flag, use OD, so all defenders do not have drugs active, get the flag, you get 20s full drugs + HEALTH KIT. Now, when leaving you do not receive that much damage and still have a repair kit left. Sounds like OP.

The EMP will cancel enemies OD, put their supplies on cool down, and stop them in their tracks literally.

I think Viking should get Deactivate Supplies because it's faster and has a low profile.

 

Dictator should get Rapid Fire because it has a high profile and because if it gets Activate Supplies it will have an even bigger advantage at grabbing gold boxes.

 

That leaves Activate Supplies for Hunter which is good because Hunter is the default Hull at the beginning of the game.

I think Viking should get Deactivate Supplies because it's faster and has a low profile. Extremely light, slower acceleration than hunter, and half the shots end up hitting a teammate.

 

 

Dictator should get Rapid Fire because it has a high profile and because if it gets Activate Supplies it will have an even bigger advantage at grabbing gold boxes. Easily shoots over teammates and near impossible to knock off its aim, and why should we give a Damn about gold boxes anyway?

If half the shots of Viking end up hitting teammates, why do you think Rapid Fire is good for Viking?

 

If Rapid Fire is OP for a hull they can balance it by reducing fitting rate or firing duration. in my opinion Activate Supplies is not good for Dictator because it's too good for Dictator when it comes to gold boxes. These days you can see many Dictators waiting for golds with their Overdrives ready, some are even multing.

It's not just Dictators that do it. Unfortunately there are a LOT of selfish players of all types of hulls hoarding OD for gold-drops.

 

One of few things I'm looking forward to if we have to have new ODs is the fact that these multers will be less frequent.

If Rapid Fire is OP for a hull they can balance it by reducing fitting rate or firing duration. I did not say that the rapid fire OD is OP. I clearly said that hunter the hull will be OP with any OD. Next time read carefully before making some ridiculous assumptions ;)

And you care about gold boxes because?

 

 

[lssimo 1,559]

...

Because gold mults don't help in battles and because Dictators with Activate Supplies will be taking most of the gold boxes.

It's not just Dictators that do it. Unfortunately there are a LOT of selfish players of all types of hulls hoarding OD for gold-drops.

But I'm seeing a lot of Dictators.

But I'm seeing a lot of Dictators.

Most of them do not use their hull in the right way, Dictator needs to camp.
