category Ideas for Hulls and Overdrives!

[lukey0 27,543]

IMO the hulls should go back to their old hit point stats. The new ones make little sense even if OD's were added to hulls. The variation was nice. 

[RevengeAttacker 217]

It's for catching golds mainly. But still a viable option, just not like other hulls.

 

Also I feel funny and fat when I drive dictator. :lol:

I think they're funny and fat when I'm following them and shooting at their enormous rear end

Good idea. Mammy should also get a HP buff, unless its new Overdrive turns out to be completely OP.

[Rooky 414]

Well, I think that's fair to balance the advantage of catching gold boxes easily!

Just increase its turning speed and buff health in M1 and M2 by about 50 HP. Maybe make it a little bit smaller. Focus on Hornet, not on Dictator. Dictator is OK.

Hornet however does actually have a few advantages over wasp, higher turning speed, better weight and power. whereas wasp has better speed, around the same amount of hp, but is outdone by hornet in all other stats.

Wasp has much more HP than Hornet in M1 and M2. M2 Hornet has 1470 HP and M2 Wasp has 1600 HP.

Yes , I've been willing to suggest this for a while , It surprises me that Viking actually has more HP than dictator (M4 aside) .

While Viking is faster and stronger and smaller ,why would you use dictator ?

I actually used to HATE dictator , so damn much until i bought it with the Simoom kit , It was awesome , the stability , the pushing power was amazing , but the hit points were a big disappointment , I don't know why it can't even survive a railgun's shot with DD . so yes , dictator does need a slight buff in HP ,to make up for its big hitbox and slow speed .

Speed pretty much only matters. Both hornet and wasp will get flipped when shot while on air.

It's much easier to flip wasp , so much easier

[RevengeAttacker 217]

It's much easier to flip wasp , so much easier

I don't quite agree.

[Shadowmaster2.o 125]

no dictator good enough as it is

[Potdindy 866]

maybe nerf viking's hp which will make hunter/dictator more viable

[mhh.2000 888]

maybe nerf viking's hp which will make hunter/dictator more viable

could work as well

[NatchGa 665]

Wasp has much more HP than Hornet in M1 and M2. M2 Hornet has 1470 HP and M2 Wasp has 1600 HP.

hornet can still be upgraded to surpass wasps hp. in the end at m4 they have the same hp, besides, this topic is about dictator, not about light hulls.

[Zehmiel 223]

A buff? to dictator? you cant be serious..

Name a reason to use it over Hunter and Viking besides catching golds.

Fix the health of hulls in each class

 

Some time ago, tanki decided to give the hulls in each class (light, medium, heavy) the same amount of health. While in some ways this was a positive change, it severely weakened some hulls. Take dictator for example, it is a part of the medium hull class. However, it is outclassed by viking and hunter. Since all medium hulls have the same health, dictator has nothing going for it. It is the slowest of the three medium hulls, and has the lowest turning speed, ontop of that, its size makes it an easy target. The only thing good about dictator is its weight and power, which make it good for golds, but thats it. If players want a fast medium hull they get viking, if they want a quick and maneuverable medium hull they get hunter, if they want a hunk of metal the size of a tower, they get dictator. Back in the day, dictator was great because it had a plentiful amount of health, now, it has the same amount of health as the smaller and faster viking. It just doesn't make sense. Dictator is just one example, but its not hard to see what I mean. If hulls in each class have the same amount of health, they don't feel unique, and some wind up being outclassed. This is why I think hulls in each class should have different amounts of health.

My feeling exactly. Ive been thinking this for about a year now.

While this idea makes sense, I don't know if I would want it to happen. before the rebalance, I used Hornet, now I use Wasp. I much prefer the handling of wasp, but under the old system Hornet had superior stats.

[ThirdOnion 4,898]

under the old system Hornet had superior stats.

I disagree. Hornet is currently better than Wasp, in my opinion. Wasp is no longer ridiculously fast like it used to be.

Wasp needs to be faster, hornet needs more health.

[Kawasaki_dirt_bikes 30]

In my opinion, each hull should be different in its own way. What's the point of buying a Mammoth if you have Titan? What's the point of using dictator when you have Hunter? Hopefully each hull will be unique in it's own way when Hull overdrives get released.
