Why does this always happen?
Why does this always happen?
It looked on purpose, like all the other times. Why can't bzfraggers stay away from teammates with BU?

i have often been mowed down by my teammates when burrowed - it feels so awful when you look on the radar and your watching this guy cruising his carefree tank slowly into you, and your like "S***!!!!!!!", and you drop the flag, but he gets to you just in time
hmmmm....
hmmmm....

It also depends what size of radar you got. If it's on 1 then you can tell a burrow tank, but if it's on 2 with lots of flags, you can't tell the difference apart.RPG wrote:dartman
The Burrowed tank and a flag are easily distinguishable on radar, it just depends weather you look hard enough .

Burrow can also help when you want to be in the action. Like in Viper's Castles... if you try to go through the opening in the middle you'll get slaughtered for sure, but if you have burrow you can get in there really easily.

I have ceased to remember that a HUD even exists on my tank. I only drive with radar. I do everything with radar, jump, dodge, shot, rico, everything.TD-Linux wrote:I always use radar when in BU, and avoid teammates. No need for being near teammates when you have BU, and wasteful too. You should be fairly far from the action to avoid being squashed by a tank.The Red Baron wrote:we need a proximity warning for burrow.
My proximity warning was for those who do not use radar, and for the player who doesn't have burrow. An annoying alarm should go off should a teamate approach his burrowed teamate too close. wake them up and realize what they are doing.
Beware! I'm going to clone myself and spread those clones all over the world!

I use a mix of both radar and HUD. Radar to locate enemies and get over there. HUD for the main fighting. During mid-fight I ususally use the radar if me and my opponent are jumping around, that way I can know where he landed.
And for servers that don't use radar (such as TB's Emerald Mosque)?The Red Baron wrote:I have ceased to remember that a HUD even exists on my tank. I only drive with radar. I do everything with radar, jump, dodge, shot, rico, everything.What do you do for stealthed tanks?
