This has become an argument Ahaha

Arguments are good. One of the best ways to learn and grow

1) Archipelago is possibly one of the most frustrating maps in tanki. 

 

2) This map would be sooo much better if there were bridges connecting the islands.

1) more than that. The only places suitable for such an abomination are the trash bin, then the dumpster, and finally the junkyard.

2) it'll take a lot more drastic changes than just that to make this map actually decent to play on.

I dont really understand the reason for its existence....there are no tactics. You just kill who is on your island

Just in my opinion I really don’t mind the Archipelago map but it is my second least favorite next to Massacre MM

Yeah, if you're a mid to long range weapon user, the last thing you want is to die and spawn on an island that is crawling with enemies. Opposite is true for melee to short ranged weapon users.

 

Spawning mechanic in this map is basically a gamble.

1) what if they have better cover than you?

2) what if they're behind cover?

3) What if they place it next to you and your only hulls are m0?

4) the Gauss could have booster drone or hornets OD. Also does not solve the fact that it can lock onto you without you knowing.

5) and what if the titan has allies with those hulls protecting it?

So we are finally agree that it is the player that can counter what his opponent is doing. If they have better cover...then shout out to them for being more pro than you. If they place it next to you, and you are slow? Then you die and respawn. If your opponent has allies in this illustration, so do you. Gotta keep it equal

1) what?????????????

2) this argument is more irrelevant from each other than comparing apples to bananas. If they have better cover than me, then it just means that they have more cover than me. Has nothing to do with them being better than me. On the noise map, I could say that the red team is "more pro" than the blue team because they have the high ground, but that wouldn't be a good argument, would it?

3) the beginner and low ranks don't stand a chance against the bomb, especially when they're littered with wasps.

4) there's no such thing as a fair fight except in legends or fairytales. Reality just has squash matches and uneven squabbles.

Alright..gg. I was hoping to have a grown up conversation. You can have your battles against exploiters, and Ill just play the game

LMAO. You don't act very "grown up" yourself. Also this wasn't really a conversation. This was really me tearing up your arguments with facts (in other words, the truth). I'm sorry you couldn't handle the truth, not everyone can.

 

Anyway, back on topic. Umm, what's there to talk about? Last good year was 2018 like I mentioned. Ever since they released monthly grindfests, things really went downhill.

Idk man. You listed some exploits that cant be countered. I showed how they can be easily countered by playing better....you showed how my points can be countered by better play.... Exactly my argument! Play well, and do well. For example, you you opponent has better cover, thats not a tanki exploit, thats how battle works...its your job to either go find cover or just go kill him. Another example, I've got an mk2 dictator...suuuper slow, but I rarely die to wasp bombs...i just drive away. Again, play better to counter your opponent

So they have mined your entire base? You are claiming a Titan has spent half the game mine the entire enemy base without getting killed.  Also, spawn protection wastes the mines.

Archipelago CP is basically gambling when you need to sacrifice yourself and hope to get a right spawn LOL

Playing better is great and all, but it's not a legitimate counter. You could be more pro than someone and they could be doing better in the battle than you all because they exploited the game's flaws.

Mined all the entrances to the prime camping spot, smartass.

Disappointing of you to resort to insults.

Previously, we were discussing a situation where the Titan was inside the enemy base, not some “prime camping spot”.  Correct me if I’m wrong, but I don’t think there are choke points inside an enemy spawn.  Again, overdrives and spawn protection almost always solve the issue of Titan dome spawn camping.

Let's do this again....like what? You listed someone have better cover as a flaw. I would say thats kinda the idea of battling someone. So what are flaws in the game? Ill give you magnum and hornet's OD. But list some others that arent just a matter of playing well.

Edit: If you can list a good number of flaws that are oppressive for the game, like hornet's OD, then we can end this thread I think

You know what? If it makes you two happy, you win the argument.

[foxer_XXX 135]

Heh I keep going back and forth on this game, hopefully I can choose a side - hopefully the side that does things for the better, if you get what I mean

[foxer_XXX 135]

Currently I am happy with the game, because I got angry at it for giving me lower tear weapons then I should have had after the modification update, but then I realized I miss interpreted the level of my turret, and now I'm fine on the terms with the game (my terms, not the games terms)

Yep, but how many more mysteries are there? That's a good question to ask

My friend recently sponsored me and treated me a gift card and I spent it on Hornet XT! Also recently in the new DM Battle Event, I was able to catch a Container and guess what? I PULLED Shaft XT!!! (Ahaha very funny if you get it) But seriously 2 skins (and again) in one week?! YAY

Dude ikr! How long has it been since Containers dropped Skins?! That’s how look it took for me! I probably 800 containers since then. I’m pretty sure a Skin drop rate from Containers is around 0.00125% or something
