Is this too much fuel?

by **Tragic** » Wed Aug 07, 2013 10:18 pm

I'm not trying to sound like I'm bitching or anything but doesn't seem like alot of fuel to you guys?

I like it. Game seemed too dry lately imo.

I too am diggin these larger cans, more shooting back in raids! You really found a jackpot there! :smoke:

ive yet to decide on the benefits / negatives of this. I always felt tp was a fuck ton dryer than old BF was and that the fuel supply as a whole could be bumped up a bit more. but consistent 1000+ cans at like 2-3 per screen could be a bit excess. but who knows, definitely makes raid taking a lot more fun but a lot more room for error which could make this game a lot more fun for the lesser experienced (which i see this being the true benefactor of this), but for experienced players 1000 goes a hell of a lot farther than a 500-600. 2000 can is just like O.o almost makes the map like a depod fuel base

more fuel means more shooting with less dying which means more playing and less filling which means longer durations of activity. its bad if you enjoy killing people ubder fast and/or you're sean.

the latter was a joke.

I was impressed with the 1000 fuels laying around but these monster fuels can work for a team lol

Skilled raiders can take players out just as quick with quick steals and mines. This makes raid taking go to a new level though, getting that extra shot in each screen knowing if you don't miss the fuel it's a 1000+ fuel. After homers hit you have around 500 fuel left anyway and I like to get that cheeky shot off on the first to land before I tele again.

WIZARD out.

I like it, the shots have been over powered as it is, and the fuel cans dont fill you as much as they did in BF. this compensates it in a way where both raiders and those being raided can benefit depending on their skill

i like it for selfish reasons. this kind of ruins the raiding aspect of the game though

Explain?

I feel that raids are usually mobs of 8+ players on 1 guy. Very few can survive these numbers and those who can continue until death anyway. The 1000+ fuels help the raidee because they can push their limits even more knowing the fuel cans have more fuel. I used to hate landing on a 500 then been insuf after homers finished hitting me. Everybody who took raids last night got killed. It's not a huge difference but right now it seemed to make it more fun to take raid after raid.

I haven't been on the raiding side of things yet though, it might suck if you are with a mob of newbs. If you get a bunch of skilled players though then fuel jacking, move predicting, pre-tele'ing will take down the best in a short time still.

I say let the increased fuel stick around for a while. See how it plays on other maps (ice for example since its the most hated map lol) nobody likes change but I think it's worth a test run.

by **PRIDE** » Thu Aug 08, 2013 10:58 am

it depends on how much of them are around. if its one per screen then im fine with it. but if its like utanks then eww no thnx

by **Krusty** » Thu Aug 08, 2013 11:10 am

It worked well from what I saw. Some screens with 2 on, then wet areas had 3 on then dry areas had 1 and sometimes 0.

You'll have to play a hour + to really check it out. Last night was so active, try tonight, pretty sure it will be just as active!

Fuels good though.

by **HurleY** » Thu Aug 08, 2013 8:18 pm

I havn't seen a 2k fuel yet but did notice the 1ks out there more. This helps, but in the end, if 1-200 fuels are left all over then the map will still get dry.

by **987** » Thu Aug 08, 2013 8:20 pm

maybe a little too much, but if its activity based then I like where this is going

Anything to increase activity is a good thing. Obviously this is battlefield 2.5, f it worked once it could possibly work again. Then again it is a 2d tank game from '96 so maybe it won't lol. Either way I've enjoyed spending some time reliving a childhood memory.

I saw you got trip star finally too! gj!

by **eldawg51** » Sat Aug 10, 2013 5:42 pm

All these fuel cans and I still manage to find the driest parts of the map to take a raid. :shrug:

Anything that increases activity, I am for. Personally I still hit those 300-400 cans if I can in a raid take.

Sidebar: I think someone should clean out that lake top left in rocks.
