Haven't seen a single b12er today. The Lungfish has advanced to the edge of Tier 2, but still Tier 1. 8 1S hoverblades, 2 2S turrets and 2 1S turrets with lots of green blocks.

You can see which Tier is a vehicle ? I just thought it was by launching battle and seeing which Tier I fall in.

It's at the bottom of the screen.

Ah, indeed, thanks.

Edit : Holy shit, radar lvl 3 are so damn expensive.

[motorbitch]

anything l3 is damn expensive! 1k per cube... the wheels i want are 4500 a pice

anyway, it lives and evolves!

fun to play. almost impossible to trip (ok... somehow i still manage it to do that   )
very fast, and durable. usually when i die, there isnt much left exept the chair. most of the lvl2 armor is not visible as its inside the tank.
tho, im not sure if thats a good approach. maby it would be smarter to have the duarble armour on the ouside, and the softer cubes inside.
but then, i tried that, and it didnt realy worked out for me. once i had a hole in the hull ,the whole thing fell appart.

best would be all good armour of cause, but cubes are so expensive

I like the game, but I don't like the part where you're in the middle of T1 with barely any armor blocks and are fighting teams loaded with them. But I'm still having fun. Good game, and we'll see how soon I can hit T2. Or maybe I should make a flyer. We'll see.

I joined the game, flipped over, spent 2 minutes getting back on my wheel, got lost, stumbled to the enemy base and captured it by myself while everyone was fighting away. Success!

[motorbitch]

how did you manage to get on your feet again?
if i flip, even if i land on my wheels, im stuck.

edit:
i mean, even if i land on my side.

Yeah, tier 1 isn't really balanced, since there's some builds that are decent with armor and guns which can stomp new players. Though, you don't gain much in tier 1. Until you can get better armour blocks or guns, just spam plenty of plastic armor (you have a ton anyway).

Also, what do you think of guns ? I believe the top S2 to be the best, since it has the most range, cheaper (in everything), for only 10 damage less.

It is 6600 for the best radar. Sure you only need one, but that's still a lot.

There are a few things that help:

-Some helium blocks near the top of your vehicle (works for cliffs too)
-Some hover blades near the top (works for cliffs too)
-Thrusters to spin your vehicle around
-A large, flat base
-Wheels on top

i disagree on this advise.
i like to keep my tanks as  small as possible with a low silluette. they will flip less often, be much more manuverable and much harder to hit. huge cube sinks just make for so easy targets.
guns are the big factor here. l1 guns fit everywhere, but already l2 guns require a lot of space.

i kind of agree on the L2s guns,  on paper they are very good. especially as larger guns not only may push you into a higher tier, but also are... larger and thus its harder to fit as many of them.
on the other hand, in my tier1 matches i totally got raped by single l3 guns, even if my tank was 0.01 rating away from tier2, too.
but a single hit from these guns not only killed several of my cubes, it also made my tank shake a lot.
so, i have to try them. once i can afford them that is.
my next goal are l3s wheels anyhow. need more hitpoints on the wheels, they always die to fast.

You didn't even mention putting the black blocks on the bottom? That's pretty much balancing 101.

[Facekillz058]

I got rid of all the black blocks on the bottom of my tank so that I could throw on some rocket poweredhydralics unstucking devices and I haven't noticed any difference in my tipping.

Oops, I forgot about those. I'm used to hovercraft and hovertanks, so using heavy blocks tends to just make it harder to drive or fly for me.

Same.

Sure, but for the time before you can afford better equipment, I find it good. It's not worth any better blocks, but it can distract the enemy (especially in tier 1).
