I've done it, but I don't think I'd do it at higher ranks

Well to the best of my knowledge i have never achieved that....and yeah at higher ranks, the way TO is now it would be impossible. By that i mean with no assistance whatsoever from anyone, it also means not using overdrive are any alts as i class them as secondary supplies...after all like normal supplies you activate them to give you an edge in battle.

If anyone achieves this impossible feat i will regard them as a very skilled player..............NO FLYING CHEATS allowed. That will not count.

Yeah, BUT, let’s not forget Fire immunity + Incendiary band + Vulcan shall we?

I'm not very skilled, but sometimes you can take advantage of an opposing team that is half-asleep or distracted

On Solikamsk there is a nice figure eight route (often collecting supply drops, do those count?) where you can drive through the tunnel and up around to behind the other team's flag > take it > drive drown the ramp in front of it and get back to behind the walls etc. on your side of the map

But against a good team? Nope

Nah sorry, no supplies whatsoever, might give it a go myself for a laff. I expect to be wiped out in 20 secs

By that you mean "not loaded yet"?

Have seen enemies making off with the flag before defenders have been loaded to the map.

In this way Matchmaker is a HUGE fail.

That's very vague.  Please elaborate.

I have seen this, and it is an MM problem, but I've only done it once

Sometimes a defense is very bad and I've managed to take and cap flags in the middle of battles without using garage supplies

Using DA-SB-DD is useful for drugging up fast so idk why you'd want to use this for heavies that take time to get into position. For all hulls it depends on the situation and the turret you're using, but if we're talking about spawning and pushing forward I'd rather use SB-DA-DD.

To contribute to this discussion:

One should not activate any supplies during the last 30 seconds of battle. Otherwise one will find that when one activates DD to kill an enemy, one gets killed, and now has no time to seek revenge.

That unknown player who wasted one supply of yours will escape unscathed (hopefully, unless he accidentally runs over a mine).

Or the battle will end with 20 seconds still remaining.

If you're saving supplies, I understand. But if there still is a chance change the battle outcome, you should use supplies to win or at least draw.

It annoys me when I'm shooting someone with my Firebird, they use a Repair Kit, and they still die 1 second later (Not from afterburn, but from me still shooting them).

Idk why, it gets on my nerves.

Been there, done that many times, it is a pretty nice drone, may not give you bonuses like defender/booster, but the ability to be on full supplies regardless of the scenario, is simple, yet amazing.
