Valid Targeting your teammates in MM and Pro Battles

[TankiNoob2000 231]

I'm not sure if you all play Halo but I got this idea from their 5th installment. When you press the H key and you gave the flag or on low health, a message will appear to your team only saying that you need assistance. You will then have an exclamation mark over your tank so your team can get to you in time. Here's an example.

I'm on red team Barda MM, I am outnumbered and need help. I press the H key and the message for the team will say "TankiNoob2000 needs assistance!" Then someone will drive and help me kill the enemies and it will also reward you xp if you manage to save them in time

Great concept. It's a common idea that a lot of other games have, and I swear we had it on this forum before. If anyone finds a duplicate, I'd appreciate if you link it.

Yeah, but that one's for voice, which is a lot more complicated to implement. This is just a text or image-based communication, for which most of the functionality already exists within the game.

Jeez, don't just brute-force it and check every topic!  :wacko:

If you ever want to find a specific topic (in I&S, or anywhere on the forum), use the search feature. Unfortunately it's semi-broken and will only show posts and topics made earlier than February 2018, but if you search by specific tag, all topics with that tag show up. I almost always use tags to search for I&S topics, unless I remember the exact title of a certain topic, in which case I search by title.

It's a nice idea.

 

This should turn the team modes back to a more team oriented game.  But saboteur may overuse the function to distract the team too... :wacko: :wacko:

What about the idea discussed here:http://en.tankiforum...howtopic=380388  that only the top 3 players on the team can use it? 

Or maybe the 5 players with the most points in the last 2 minutes?

Good idea providing you can get some good team play going. Unfortunately, I've seen too many battles where the teams didn't care about the objective.

 

Recently, in the same CTF battle, the flag carrier got killed within a couple feet of the team flag and no one bothered to get them. I was with the carrier on both raids and both of us respawned the opposite end from where the carrier was killed. By the time we materialized enough to move, the flag was returned. In one instance, one of our teammates killed an enemy tank trying to return the flag, so I know he saw it. 

 

I've also seen the enemy with our flag get killed and no one returned it. To make matters worse, it was in the middle of the two bases and two teammates went right by it. I loaded an SB and returned it just before an enemy tank got to it.

Sadly most of the players are selfish...
