What are your thoughts on these bomb droppers and people that use tank glitches. It seems it is getting more and more prevelant for me I hate it. Just got finish with a game that Ali showed up in shot him down at our base and he used a tank glitch wiped out all hangers. He also is a dropper. You have Ali, puto and there is another one I seen today called Black knight. I know the first part is knight never seen him before got to our base and camped there shot everyone down and did not bomb. To me it's happening more and more. These guys are not with any teams they are independent as far as I can tell. You start a great game and they ruin it. I leave most of the time as well as others I know that I play with. What is your thoughts?

I have never been a fan of the ones who use the tank glitch, and personally don't use it. Your best bet is just to know how folks play and adjust your play accordingly. That can be anything from dropping to match them or simply leaving games they are in. There are folks who would argue that the tank glitch users are defeated by "cleaning up your chutes" but that isn't always an option. Couple that with the fact that a person on one team can get a tank either at or close to the enemy base and the other team gets the "landed in enemy territory" message and has to start over, and I would say glitching is a cheat. That is just my opinion.

Droppers are a different matter. Most of the time if you drop to match and shoot them down a few times they will bail and look for a game which has easier targets. Not always, but most of the time. Once they make it to your base the defense of course is to apply your brakes on the runway and wait for them to pass before launching and dealing with them.

Both styles of play are frustrating, but certainly something that can be overcome. Most important is the ability to identify players who you know are going to use these tactics and decide what your best course of action would be.

I agree most of the time I leave. However I do think the tank glitch is cheating as well. Sometimes I will drop and just target that person. But I really do not like that because many others that we play with hate that. Thanks for the response!

I know what you mean. Just yesterday I saw a tank spawnkiller in a dogfight game, announced I was going after him, and some guy named Tax Constipation, TX Contraption, or something like that, cut me down before I could mete out justice.

Not a fan of either. There is an advantage for pc users in turn fights and some take advantage of it by dropping. Both are weak...glitchers are about as good as that brown stuff you get on your boots when walking through a cow pasture
