Singled Out For Using Vehicles
« on: October 06, 2006, 06:38:22 PM »
It seems that in alot of games, people are using vehicles against me. Things like lynx and tigers. And I have to say that something has to be done. It is unfair to resort to the extreme measure of actually sending units into another player's colony and using them for combat. This is unheard of and I have to say that its totally unfair. Everytime I start building, I suddenly see VEHICLES coming toward me. WTF is with that?!

But I guess thats just how some bad apples choose to play. Using underhanded tactics seems to be a habit of SOME people. I have played many games with no need for vehicles or vehicle factories. Why would you need more than one convec? You dont need to build vehicles. I feel that I am being singled out and purposefully targeted. EVERYTIME I play OP2 against people like Starfox and Mcshay they use vehicles against me and its very unfair.

I agree, any real stratigy player wouldnt need to use such cheap tactics like "rushing" or "bombing" or even "crushing with tigers", its n00b, its underhanded, and its got to go
I am the nincompoop, I eat atomic bombs for breakfest, fusion bombs for lunch, and anti-matter bombs for dinner

I just hope they don't explode

just play with the people that don't rush.  This type of post has been done far too many times.

Attacking people with vehicles is pretty outdated. There is now a better way to destroy them (and everything else) from the comfort of your own base with a single Guard Post.

True, using vehicles is very noobish. Things like using Thor's Hammers are totally noobish. Better sayind, anything about vehicles is noobish.

Multiplayers are used for a long very long match to have a lot of fun, no to destroy your opponent right away.

Campgain is for: "destroy your enemy now"

I completely agree, we must get rid of lynx's, panther's, and tigers. But wait, what if someone builds a guard post at someone elses base? that's gotta go too. What about earhworkers, those can destroy tubes, can't have that. but what if someone suicides all thier vehicles on the other players command center? Everyone will start with 1 convec, 2 cargo trucks, 1 robo surveyor, and two robo-miners... but wait, what if that's enough to suicide with? how about only one cargo truck and one robo-miner, and then only let them mine common ore... this is gonna be a great game.

I suggest eliminating the game in its entirety, this game means someone has to win and someone has to lose... that is unfair and unjust.
