Well atleast they arent useless anymore, dont even need to aim much anymore since there splash is wayout there. Behind a wall? to bad ill shoot right beside you. Trynna run away? Too bad ill still hit you at 550m. You running a 350m robot? Too bad im at 500.

I understand.
A lot of Players want the "Bug" back. It was much better gameplay.

I prefer Plasma, since I've got a Carnage (which isn't very plasma), a Galahad (very plasma) a Gareth (not very plasma) a Leo (um...) and a Griffin with 2x aphids 2x orkans (VERY NOT PLASMA) So that's that. And yeah, my griff is kinda rdb-styled. |

Thanks for the [rdb mistake correction]. I called my gareth not plasma since I gave it a magnum and tulumbas (even though I have orkans for him)

It's a pain in my 「bum-bum」, but I have a pair of Griffins with Pins and Tulumbas which I love to use for hitting groups or behind walls. It's only good if you're using missiles I guess.

Pretty much all the balance they sought from Android 2.9.2 was for nothing, since everyone is back to using rockets on 3.0. I tried and failed to take a screenshot on Yama of 5 reds hiding just beyond the ramp. 3 were DBs and 2 were RDBs.
Remember that glorious period when we actually saw gunship griffs, leadhose griffs, and PDBs?

It's somewhat the exact same discussion that is already held here : war-robots-forum.freeforums.net/thread/12608/remove-proximity-detonation-tulumbas-pins?page=2I agree this proximity detonation doesn't make sense, but that's unfortunately not the opinion of the majority if you refer to the pool which is held in the other thread. Unfortunately people tend to say no by default to any change, and you also have an army of RDB users that want to keep their competitive advantage which is human, but there is no doubt in my mind that removing the proximity detonation (or timing, for people who may be picky with the exact definition) would be good for the game. Rewarding skills, promoting diversity in the game, and IMO, being more realistic overall. What's not to like honestly ? Lost cause I suppose. People enjoying a more diverse game between 2.9.2 and 3 on Android can go back to their RDB, just like everybody is already going with RDB on IOS. That's what people want it seems. |

That "bug" made it more challenging to target small bots, I actually got used to it and I use RDB, I also like it because you can actually feel the hope of not being hit when you try to run away!
