Overdrives are here!

[Zealandia 1]

Viking's OD is only OP until you see what the other hulls have got.

And then you realise Viking has probably the weakest OD of the lot.

it is kinda true... also wasp is kinda weak as far as overdrives, even a titan or mamouth can get out of the way...

[DieselPlatinum 5,121]

wasps overdrive is very bad, the 3 second timer is enough time for even mammoths to escape. players are getting used to the timer and just moving away from the bomb when they see it countdown, it barely works. also, enemies can easily shove wasp into its own bomb, and so most of the time im always self destructing when i use it, making me lose more and more points. please lower the timer to 1 second and make wasp immune to its own bomb, this will balance it out and actually make it useful. wasp is already one of the most weakest and underbalanced hull for competitive gameplay, please improve its overdrive.

 

 

I don't think wasps bomb is intended to kill, even though it can. I think it's main intentions is to force enemy campers out of their hiding holes and out in the open leaving them exposed to attacks, which I think could do very well.

 

 

 

The problem I have using Dictator is that when I swerve the hull, it goes way further than I expect it to and I can't keep it balanced because if I try to balance it by swerving the other direction, it would just do the same imbalanced thing but just in the other direction. I can't keep a steady aim with turrets when I use Dictator. 

 

Another thing is that for a hull with a lot of weight for its category, it sure does pushed around a lot. M0 Smokies are pushing my Dictator so much as if it were Viking. I can't drive and aim properly even when I'm stationary. That was for M0. 

 

I went and used my M2 Dictator and it was torture to try to drive comfortably. I don't remember having this problem back when I bought the M1 version when my higher account was Third Lieutenant.

 

I experience this too, but mainly when I'm going forward, not so much when going backwards.

My hornet overdrive actually dealt 2091 damage to another tank that had no supplies active. I shot the tank with a M1 railgun. Not even M2! My hornet is also M1. Is that normal? My rank os WO5. Please inform me soon. Thank you.

i bet u had double damage activated

[TinBoxGunner 68]

Wasp OD should have 3 sec delay before explosion.  4 sec is too long when stealing flag at enemy base.

[The_Professional 125]

Not so good. -_-

In how much area/radius hunter OD effect enemies?

I mean what is range of hunter's OD.

Hunter's Overdrive's effective range is 30 meters, about the length of 5.7 Vikings. (33% larger area than Titan's dome)

the wiki is not accurate, why would you give them a link to that? You want them to think that mammoth dps is 999 instead of 3996 as stated in the RU wiki?

[The_Pakistani 16,768]

that tiny hornet OD charge so fast n it ignore ur protection n it last for 6 minutes in 7 mint battle. hahahahahahaha

It lasts for 30 seconds. Perhaps many Hornets were on your team and they were able to activate it one after the other while getting their charge back up to 100% fast.

I'm starting to think that overdrive of mammoth needs to put some limits on it, so it doesn't spoil the game.

Why do you suggest this?

Can you please reply something useful? I don't know what to interpret from "hahahahhaha". 

[Uh-Oh 3]

 

 

Has this started happening right after the update, or have you been able to activate your overdrive a couple of times after the overdrives have been released?

 

 

I started playing like 2-3 days after the update came...and i wasn't able to use the overdrive all at because of the error. Basically after using the overdrive i can shoot 2 or 3 times with thunder and deal damage..after that i can't deal damage and opponents cant kill me either..+ its shows to re-enter the game and the same thing keeps happening even after i re-enter

Have used it many times and have to be a LOT closer than that.   Might be 15m... maybe 20.

[CooperO 7,956]

 

since when are players in support of  this system.. after 29 pages of mainly players against it..how can you say were for this. 

Players are storming the battles with the support of the new overdrives. It doesn't say that players support the update.

It's quite common that there are some caching issues (conflicts) after an update and since your issue started right after the update, it's definitely worth a shot to clear your cache.

You can read here how to do that:

Nah, the range is kind of far. When I think I'm out of range, it gets me. 

 

I've used it on some enemies that I thought were out of range but still got shocked. 

 

Just look at Brog at the bottom left corner. I'm a good bit off of him vertically and horizontally. 

 

We have a base and a height for the triangle. The lightning arc would be the hypotenuse. I'd say that hypotenuse is somewhere between 20 and 25 meters. 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

The distance from I and KOTMARK seems to be about the radius of Titan's Dome.

The range is short but what happens is that the electrolytes pass through tanks and spread to the nearby one so if tanks were lined up it's range could extend far

so your saying the main point of wasps overdrive is to make enemies move away? the bomb will destroy anyone within the blast radius, and your telling me its ok because its just supposed to push enemies back, huh? they gave it damage for a reason, to blow up tanks. i want to blow them up, i dont care if i make them go away from me. its as if your so used to the fact that wasp is the most underpowered hull you dont even care anymore if its overdrive works as its supposed to be intended

If you want to blow up your enemies, go make a new account. Just don't expect everyone at high ranks to be sitting ducks when your bombs about to go off.

Huh? 

 

From what I've been experiencing, this doesn't happen. It directly zaps each enemy tank independently. 

 

I'll test this out to see if that happens.

I haven't been able to zap anyone as far away a Brog is in that screen-shot. Maybe half that distance.
