People with tanks just suck.


Recommended Posts

I know this has been posted about 5 million times. But just now someone in a tank blew me up in my infernus, and every time (yes multiple times) I called the insurance company I had to pay for a replacement, and also every time it spawned there was someone there who blew it up…literally as it spawned. How is R* ok with this and why doesn't your car just spawn in your f*cking garage?? Literally everyone in that session was in a tank

How come you had to pay for getting a replacement car? Unless it's been changed recently, I thought that if someone else destroyed it, they'd get charged the price of getting another one and would also receive a bad sport notification.

apparently if you're in a tank you don't have to pay

I'm a real bastard, because when I have a bounty on my head. I just grab my tank and run around, then when a taker gets close I go into run away mode and go hide. Then they come around a corner... BOOM. Sorry man its just fun.

Do you know why they don't have to pay?

 

It's because little smart ass kids thought they were being funny crashing adders into tanks to bankrupt them and give them bad sport.

 

I myself was a victim of this in the early days when destroying 4 or 5 cars got you bad sport, all i was doing was trying to destroy police helicopters for the award and 2 people kept crashing cars into me, it cost me a fortune and i got stuck in a lobby full of tanks and griefers for 4 days playing by myself because my friends were all good sport.

New session will have to do until insurance gets fixed to include money on secondary characters. Or the insurance company starts repo-ing the tank abusers things until they have nothing left. I vote for the latter.

 

Awards/achievements for tanks can be completed in private sessions. Having a tank out in an open session is asking for trouble, no excuses. The abuse is just that bad. Always has been, always will be, unless something is changed.

Using a tank miles away from everyone in the desert doesn't make it ok for players to seek me out and crash into me to bankrupt and bad sport me, especially when i said to them what i was doing.

As far as I'm concerned this is karma.

 

Tanks are not even a problem they're slow as hell, yeah you might get killed once, then just passive mode and off the radar, highlight the tank user so you can avoid him and there's no problem, call a mugger and laugh as the mugger drives off in his tank.

No Op. People suck. Tanks have nothing to do with it. I have a tank and have never killed a player with it. Got a dozen 5 stars with it though. Its not the tool that sucks, its the use of said tool that makes it suck.

they arent that hard to avoid either

People who complain about tanks are basically fuelling the flames for tank griefers. I haven't used my tank in a long time but people like the OP makes me want to get out my tank again. If everyone just stopped crying and just went in passive mode things would be a lot better...

The other day some idiot killed me for no reason, so I chased him down and killed him 8 times. Got boring after a while, and he took of in another direction. I figured he just ran away, but then I saw his blip starting to get closer again. This time he'd brought his tank with him.

 

This is pretty much what tank people are like. They suck and they can't deal with it. Needless to say, I left the session before he had a chance to get to me.

I occasionally use the tank for marauding of killing cops (what is the period of the 50rp award for waiting out a 5 star wanted level?). I make no effort to grief (one or two kills in hardly griefing before moving on) with it and I have come across adventurous few with stickies and grenades and have been ended that way. If you're game you know what to expect, but by and large I keep moving for two reasons. Staying still is boring and deadly as the tanks aren't invulnerable. If you have a bounty and I get you with the tank, so be it. I've got many with guns, cars and planes. Tanks are fun with their advantages and disadvantages, same as all gtas before.

 

P.S A little tip. Never take a tank head on.

1 time I joined a game and these 6 kids from a crew were spawn killing my friend I went to help and between us we destroyed them, my friend went offline and then all of them went and got tanks, thats 6 tanks vs me, they had chat on everyone so i flew to chilliad and waited as all of them tried to get their tanks up the mountain, was hilarious hearing them argue and struggle to get up, they eventually gave up and walked up, they obviously ween't paying attention because I'd used off the radar and been back in the city for 30 minutes :D they left.

lol that was awesome revenge right there

 

Use the terrain, use the blind spots and use means at your disposal to play the game. More to the game than what the game says there is.

Is this GTA or World of Tanks? Lol...

 

I think cudweiser was talking how avoid tanks

I know, I know... I was being sarcastic. But seriously, tanks were fun in singleplayer in the older games... You know, the cheat code one. Ever since they brought them online, it's no longer cool anymore. It's just a cheap tactic.

Yeah, for you... You're level 104, dude. Most tank drivers target low level players because they know they can't do anything. Even with the RPG, it takes like 10 rockets to kill the damn thing... Even then you're just blowing your own money...
