Battle Royale

I can't find the old topic. If it still exists can a Mod please merge this topic with it.

The old topic we picked teams and planned to play just before or just after a tournament. In the end it was just a free for all after a tournament one night. I stayed up until 4 or 5am playing. (GMT + 0 so it wasn't that late for most of you guys.) It was the most fun I had since the game started. There was so many people in playing.

Recently I spoke to UNBREAKABLE and we where on about how the game isn't as fun as it was a month or so back. We talked about this occasion where 20+ people where in and mobs raids going 2 at a time sometimes lol. We should try make it a weekly thing, even more often than that if people come. If its around the same time each week people will turn up like they do for tournaments. Obviously it should be placed around tournaments to boost activity even more. No team picking as that will probably end bad with 1 team having all the tags. Every man for himself n00bs will be n00bs and switch the the dominant colour all the time, but the good players will be teaming to take out the n00bs, then each other. This will at least boost the game activity since it's not like it was the first 2 months.

What does everybody think? I am sure it lasted over 3 hours last time, died off a little but then people came back. I left before the end.

What about a last man standing contest. Every week a new one could be setup just like a tournament, everyone joins in on their tank main or clan and once you die your out, last tank left alive is the winner. It would be nice if Tankpit got on board with the battle royal and listed the times on their calendar so thus everyone would know about it and not just the people on this forum.

Nameless, I'm not shooting your idea down, but....Ok i'm shooting it down...If it got to a 1v1, no one would die. oh, and what if it got down to 2 reds... What are they going to do lol. a last man standing is dumb. Color battles only please.

Fresh ideas are great, but please be viable.

dont bring him down so hard hays. it sounds like a great until you think to hard about it.. but yes color battles are a lot of fun. having a draft and shit makes it really interesting.

Yeah last time people just picked a colour to play and went into that list. Everybody picked their main anyway and me and a few others offered to switch to even out teams.

We could try that again? or just hope everybody comes in for a free for all, who knows what will happen.

I like the idea of setting a "game time".

Pick the day(s) and set a standard time... Ya, you may not get a :bronzecup:

, but you can get in on the mob action.

Many times, I log on and there may be only 1 other person on... boring IMO, so I leave and come back later that day. Establishing a routine time/day would only make sense.

by **Jay** » Fri Mar 23, 2012 2:02 pm

thats one of the main problems, people go in then leave because nobody is in, but when I decide to stay in and try 1v1 because i'm that bored lots turn up. If we set a time each weekend then people know when to get on and when it will be active.

by **Cdub** » Fri Mar 23, 2012 2:09 pm

yeah thats a good idea what's his name. we should give this prime time thing a shot. :lb:

by **packonback** » Fri Mar 23, 2012 4:49 pm

Agree!

by **Jay** » Fri Mar 23, 2012 5:28 pm

Suggest some times, the tournament is at a fucked up time for most so we can't go off that.

I am also not here tomorrow night but you should try figure out a time and see how many people can get in around then. Next poster should just shout a reasonable time and everybody else should aim for that or give a good reason why it should be a different time. K go! lol

Make this a pole with dated times so people can vote, obviously the highest vote wins and then we commence with the brawling.

Your invited, bring your client with you.

Sylar make up your mind, your 2x's trolling, 1 min your like I never played tankpit, the next you've got the client. I wan't to learn how to 2x's troll. Teach me.

by **Sylar** » Fri Mar 30, 2012 9:43 pm

4th level thinking. I need to troll myself in order to successfully troll others. That way, I dont even know if im trolling, making it impossible for others to figure it out.

Well I started this and didnt follow up with it.
The team battles of the past was fun. With today's color cap, there really isnt a team battle. 4v4, 3v1 raids and if you get a tag or 2, your team get the major advantage.

The only way to get a taste of what it used to be is to have everyone play on their main tank. No teams involved, no aim/teamspeak coordination. Just an all out brawl, utilize in game messages as it was intended to be.

I will try to play the tourny tomorrow. Lets say 30mins after tourny, everyone that can get in get in.
If we can get to 15 on each color, that would be pretty epic.

Reply in this thread if you can make it. This way, it will encourage others to join when they see more and more players signing up.

you know a shit ton will be on lol good idea break

by **Jay** » Sat Mar 31, 2012 3:42 am

I will be drinking all day today, not at night though so I will be wasted for the tourn, and probably still drunk after to get my captain up to gen then back down a few times in this battle royal. This could also solve a lot of problems with the new red team if they show. If the numbers are huge in game then people will 100% notice double movement n shit.

by **Tugg** » Sat Mar 31, 2012 7:13 am
