True Top 25

by **wardizzle** » Fri Jan 20, 2012 8:10 pm

I was landing with 1/3 fuel before homings consistently, got insufficient with all 6 tanks on my screen twice, and was at 10 or less armors multiple times.

If that's pre-teleporting and running, guilty as charged.

EDIT: I'm not saying that it was a consistent 20 minutes of fighting with 6 tanks on my screen every teleport, but it was 20 minutes of constant fighting.

are you guys expecting utanks takes? lol theres no instant map or preradared screens

by **lollerfries** » Fri Jan 20, 2012 10:07 pm

It is possible to take raids normally up to 6 people, depending on angles and the amount of duals hitting you. After that, you have to pre tele some because you'll go from full to just above duals fuel wise with one round of people shooting you.

I don't mind it much because if you know anything about taking a raid you'll conserve shields and try to get a shot every screen, which isn't hard now because it's nothing but random players, so you shoot the first person that lands. (this counts as one shot per screen imo. not your fault that other players are slow.)

I've taken 7 solid raids so far: 5/6 mans and one 7 man. I've died in them all, but kids wonder why I don't die in three screens like everyone else or marathon and shoot back once every 6 screens like you see most do....

I've seen 3 solid takes from players so far: SW, K12, and Tugg when he wasn't fucking around. It's not hard. You all have just been spoiled by uTanks' instant mapping and quicker pace.

Took a 6-8 tank raid of mixed blue and red. I didn't fight back as much as I would have liked but it's a start. I am by no means elite but in just 2 days I've made top 10. Like I said before, brings back so many memories.

Taking a raid as colonel or general is not nearly as hard as at a low rank. I think we forget that taking a decent sized raid as lieut or capt was always very hard in BF.

Probably the worst thing about the game right now is the mentality of the players. I have to agree with 987 that almost all the players are lame as fuck. When red is mobbing, instead of purples and oranges and blues teaming against red like the game should be, it ends up with the 3 strongest colors teaming against the weakest one. All the players want to steal a kill and then Q without ever taking the raid themselves. Nobody wants to take raids, yet they expect others to take them. The idea that running from a raid or using a ferry is bad... is retarded. Especially so if the raid/mob is unfair to begin with. It's super easy to get kills without mobbing, yet players are still too lazy/bad/pathetic and want to resort immediately to mobbing instead. Is this really the uTanks mentality?

I guess it's nothing new. Always shady behavior everywhere. A lot of players want to be respected for their alleged skill 10 years ago without demonstrating any skill in 2012. A lot scared of death medals. Everyone crying and full of themselves. No respect for anyone else on the field. Any lame tactic for a quick kill.

Might shot damage provide a solution? Perhaps it should be scaled down with more people hitting you, so that raids are easier but low numbers is still fun and you don't need 8 ppl to kill someone.

wAr dOg this part wasn't aimed at you, I didn't paragraph this was in general... no need to get defensive you owned, I was just stating that it seems a lot longer than it actually is when taking a raid.

Sylar has hit it on the head, people take raids here but turn duels off to pick up shields and run for 2-3 screens to have a break, it looks like your taking still but really your just playing wit no intention to die and shooting back when you can. Although I have seen some people take some big 6/7 on 1's most die

^^ wasn't aimed at you, mainly at the noobs who think there good.

Also may I add Hunter has been taking some mean raids, learn from him every1, I assure every1 he will be one of the best.

SW, shot damage being lowered for higher number of tanks hitting the raidee would be perfect, game would be fun as hell then, 3v1 you can kill people, then 5-6v1 shot damaged is lowered a little to give the raidee more of a chance since its close to impossible unless you run some. May help out the less fortunate like myself with horrible connections lol

I was just kindly pointing out to Sylar that he was wrong.

by **987** » Sun Jan 22, 2012 4:31 am

can't be fucked playing this gay game until most of you grow a sack and start taking raids. i enjoyed the first 2 days with mostly perf/snake action, and since then it's been a catastrophe. who the hell quits low these days? the fuck? lmao

i hope most of you sad fucks stay on tp as utanks comes back, trust me when i say it does everyone else a favor. so far it looks like that email did more harm than good, but alas..

They were really fun I have to admit and that was before we were even re-adjusted to the speed and everyone was dying like crazy. Now kids are just quiting out, nubs. :finger:

by **KILLER12** » Sun Jan 22, 2012 6:37 am

i need current updates from players on this thread for now on please. Keep me posted with who you pass and where you guys KNOW you are at. No more of this "oh i think im..." bullshit.

SO WHENEVER ANYONE RANKS UP AND SEES THEY'RE PAST SOMEONE NEW LET ME KNOW HERE.

by **Jay** » Sun Jan 22, 2012 6:58 am

Blue Pyramid is behind me, we where both leuit and I was ahead. Perf-16 was ahead of me at col but I got 4hours as serg/leuit so I am like 99% sure i'm ahead of him again. SQUID6 is also behind me but unsure if he is ahead of blue pyramid.

1. kenny.
2. josh.
3. me again.
4. perf-16
5. blue pyramid/squid6
7. death trains / desert swarm / anaconda / one man team

Not sure how accurate.

by **KILLER12** » Sun Jan 22, 2012 9:20 am

last i seen u were died down, how would u know if u were in front of okisme or not -_- lol

by **PRIDE** » Sun Jan 22, 2012 10:04 am

yeah, i kinda lol'd. im 3rd until proven otherwise

by **Jay** » Sun Jan 22, 2012 11:31 am

he said he passed me by a few hours, I got 8hours last night as serg/leuit shooting col's and gen's none stop I believe this would but me quite a bit in front again. Especially once I hit 50hours today.

by **KILLER12** » Sun Jan 22, 2012 11:33 am

changes will be made when proven.

by **Jay** » Sun Jan 22, 2012 12:02 pm

lame kenny! Just you wait until I get the time and motivation to pass you :)

by **lollerfries** » Sun Jan 22, 2012 12:27 pm

I'm 20-25 somewhere. Just pass Viper202 and I know I passed Copperhead because when i made Gen I was already passed him. Top10 looks solid but after that it's too hard because we haven't had a solid T25 of gens yet :/

-EDIT- I also feel like I should be wayyy higher but then I realize I'm only at 16 hours and the rest of you are at least in the 30s. :clueless:

by **KILLER12** » Sun Jan 22, 2012 1:42 pm
