That's actually a very clever design. I like it!
I feel like I've seen a ship like that in some sci-fi movie or image or whatever but not sure where.

Oh you're gonna love the controls:
Space = forward
Shift = reverse
Left = right
Right = left
Up = down
Down = up

Oh right.
You could try reverting the keyboard

If you're on a laptop, well... You can always practice contortion

You can use a hotkey program such as "autohotkey" to remap your keyboard.

After countless attempts, I finally made a good hovercraft

Specs:
Ultra lightweight tetra armor, double layered at bottom and front.
Can tank massive amounts of laser hits, can tank up to 4 plasma blasts from the front.
All vital components are connected with a black inner frame.
7x Hoverblade L5s with 3x L5s F.Thruster and 1x L5s R.Thruster for quick acceleration in both directions.
Heavy cube bottom layer to eliminate rocking
All guns can point up to fight against laser flyers
22x L1s thruster for steering, so it can turn until the bitter end.
Super slim frontal profile
High pilot seat for good line of sight
Fake windows as decoy to help against pilot sniping
Out-shot every laser gunbed I have encountered when forward facing.

That thing has 7xL5S?!! So you have stacked 2 in front... 2 stacked in each side of the pilot seat... Where did you put the 7th one?

Oh, I got much of it wrong and failed to see the one below the fake cockpit. That's indeed a very nice configuration. Those irregular surfaces make it look even more awesome for some reason. And I generally prefer more regular chassis designs.

Level 100 ? You must have grinded like a chinese... oh wait you ARE azn :P

anyways i built a fast tank, yeah i still prefer flyers but true planes are kinda unflyable with a keyboard and this beta keyboard setup

Naryar · « **Reply #189 on:** March 24, 2014, 11:18:50 AM »

Well, laser sucks. Plasma is soo much better for grind, especially 5 plasma bots.

sure

Clearly you haven't seen all the thrusters on it...

I know right? That might possibly be the slowest tank in existence.

Also, since you didn't buy any worthwhile wheels anyway, you might want to go back to using hovercraft. Tank used to be 10x better, but then plasma happened. And OHKO by ground explosion is annoying as hell. At least with hovercraft they actually have to hit you.

You do know that, even if you add a bajillion thrusters or the bestest wheel if you have 1 l1 wheel the entire tank will only go as fast as that wheel allows, right?

Not entirely true.

The wheels will attempt to break when it hits it's max speed, pushing back on whatever is trying to push forward. You can overwhelm this breaking with enough forward thrust. Say if you have 20 L5s on 4 L1 wheels, it will go faster than 4 L1 wheels.

Of course, what Naryars has there is nowhere near enough to do anything. Also thrusters themselves have max speed, so having a lot of small thrusters doesn't add much to speed.

An attempt to see just how much armor I can put on a flyer and still fly.

Armor is made entirely of tetra and prism to save weight, and despite using white armor atm it can still take quite a bit of beating. Unfortunately but not surprisingly, it is kinna slow and clumsy to operate.

It has 10x L5s F.Thrusters.

I play to get kills, levels and RP just happens naturally. Only n00bs need to grind.

I mean, I have no problem getting multiple kills even when I use only L1 garbage everyone starts with. I never particularly feel the need to "get" anything, but I am probably too addicted to killing in PvP.

Plasma has been nerfed now. It's kinda good because it was far superior to laser if you bothered to apply base ballistics to you game.

also like the friends feature, the aim mode, and all that...

Built a small, light flyer. Then I realized it was fragile as **** and didn't had enough weapons so I said **** MAX SPEED.

That is Battlecruiser Fearless (yes i did a battlecruiser operational joke)

Yes, it flies. Climbs nicely. It's also quite agile and very controllable, just slow...
