Just simple shots. Playing with flags is weak.

Yes, you're right satu.

Simple shots are the best. I just like playing with simple shots!!

I like laser! Simple shots is a runner up, but I really like sniping tanks

I used to be so good, I could jump, and aim perfectly to hit a moving tank on a building across the map. I don't know if I'm that good now though :/

Laser is super-fun because you can destroy all the tanks in the field if you want!

seeing as i don't really play on servers w/ flags (w/ a few exeptions) I'd have to say good old bullets. I don't usually play w/ flags cuz flags promote power, not skill. skill comes w/ work and practice w/out help from super-powers, but some flags r good!

tiny is the supreme flag of bzflag.

you mean narrow

I didn't answer. It depends entirely on the map and game type (FFA, CTF, rabbit, etc.)

no tiny.. with narrow you can easily be blindsided

. with tiny you are small all around it changes every point on your tank. easier to fit between bullets if they are perpendicular to you... same if they are infront. also very hard to hit on a landing.

tiny gets my vote

being the sneaky character i am, stealth is my favorite flag.

Rogue + Laser = indescriminate slaughter ownage!

Obviously, it varies by play style and map, etc. Generally, though, I love laser.

You forgot GM, btw...

a lot of people like that, too. And WG *runs for his life*

Flags may not require a lot of skill, and that is why powerful flags should be relatively scarce. they only become a problem when one player becomes dependent on a certain flag and only manages to kill other tanks when using said flag... *coughcoughWGcoughcough*

I'd have to say, st and wg are my favorite flags. I love being able to sneak up on ppl and scare the hell out of them before i kill them.

And wg is a very helpful flag when you kno how to use it

no its geno, how else could dash, dax geno ho's get a score of 300-3

Yea, i just discovered the wonder of tiny, NOT narrow ha ha... anyways, ur like almost invincable (then again my dad is a lousy shot). Anyways, my favorite weapon for big FFA maps when im rouge is the thermonuclear radiation sphere, and for CTf maps i like laser with bino mode

Laser rules.....

Shockwave is fun... almost too much fun.

The funny part is when you're approaching a noob on the ground with SW. You just drive up slowly, keep dodging his wild array of confused bullets -- nervous bullets the closer you get -- then SSHHHZZZZOCK! Of course the noob does all kind of stupid things to avoid you, like backing up and jumping.

Besides, SW is also fun to camp with on an opponent's CTF base, right when your team captured their flag. ;->

You know, once i played a mean trick on my dad. i got in the admin settings on my server, and increased the shockwave size to 999. now, with 33 bots, my score went up 34 every time i fired with sw.

RPG · Post by **RPG** » Fri Apr 01, 2005 7:12 pm

I did that once until I hit 1,000 points. Too bad the server was private so BZ Stats couldn't capture that score.

wegstar · Post by **wegstar** » Fri Apr 01, 2005 7:51 pm

Normal bullets are great in any kind of situation... there are those reload times for the other flags

Supertanker · Post by **Supertanker** » Fri Apr 01, 2005 8:24 pm

Yah, that is fun. Except i know how to do more than that. i made a laser that just stays there for 15 seconds, and those idiotic bots run right into it lol.

Supertanker · Post by **Supertanker** » Sat Apr 02, 2005 1:54 am

Its prety obvious no one like super bullets. Except for my dad. Maybe thats why his score is so low.

Dervish · Post by **Dervish** » Sat Apr 02, 2005 2:21 am

Super Bullets is an extremely useful weapon, but it's not something most players would really want unless they're fighting a tank with OO or PZ.

the enemy · Post by **the enemy** » Sat Apr 09, 2005 2:18 am

Super bullets may be good depending on the map and a suitable place to shoot from. Ditto the other flags - sometimes they're good on a map and sometimes no use.

Or it depends on other things, for example, on narrow versus tiny, narrow is better if there are fewer players so you can't be blindsided; but if there are more players then tiny is better.

Laser might be ok on a server without rico, but on most servers it's too easy to kill yourself or teammates. I use it for a fun change, but generally not. Again except for a few maps like Ari's Giza Plateau where laser can be very effective because the world's so large.
