(Suspended) For being creative. Prevent getting reported = 100% win rate?

Yeah its one of the hard parts of using a sniper. My dps output depends on if i crit. I will definitely play a bit more conservative. Actually have a tier 4 rare pulse soon to be ready. I know these reports will decrease when i hit MK6 though, the dps output will be totally different.

 

It does so by not doing the work expected of a fixer. Any one of the five teammates, regardless of which ship they employ, can and do draw fire. That's kinda the point of having a fixer around...to fix that damage so they can continue. A good fixer on the team can make or break a match. As a shooter, I hold the value of a good fixer highly. It is what keeps me and the speeders and the defenders and the enforcers all doing their respective jobs...and this is what it means to fix. Yes, self healing is very important to keep yourself in the battle, as well...but not at the expense of the rest of the team. The rest of the team cannot self heal in this manner. I suspect there is more to this suspension than simply the use of trip tape...that perhaps creativity in your use of the tape is not it so much as gameplay.

It is good that you are able to do the added extras that you can. When your job is done. Or in another ship.

 

@Miika @The Grim Repair @KilledWhale @Bennunator
Can we have a dev confirm that @Miku Da Yo 39 was banned based on the number of reports rather than intentionally losing?
I will side with the player at this post here for reasons to believe that he did not intentionally lose on purpose(or else he wouldn't be here). I also think that the "Report" button can be abused especially when players have strong biased opinions, and this is one of them. We've seen several threads here about "selfish" fixers and I don't entirely agree that choosing a certain ship dictates exactly how you play. Ie: a speeder must scout, enforcer must protect etc. This is quite creative and i've always wondered about a tanking Fixer.

I personally am not against this 3 Duct tape, as it's an interesting build similar to a Shooter or a Defender with lots of HP.

 

How are you to judge that healing the team is worth more than tanking damage and doing more DPS output than an average fixer?
It is possible to play a hybrid class in this game and you need to think of duct tape fixers as either a speeder, defender or enforcer hybrid. If i can perform duties of other classes, why is that so bad? Why can you not just adapt? Why does it have to be your way? Where are the rules forcing me to conform to your ideals? Why? It works otherwise i would not have made it to 3400 infamy with tape only.
We can debate numbers if you want, but the point is that both of these strategies are effective. If you compare my contribution through tanking damage and outputting damage with a speeder, is that so wrong? At mk6 we have 2 weps so i can effectively do a speeders job. Why do i have to conform and play how people tell me to? Why can i not be creative and play how i want? If the strategy and build works and i am climbing infamy, am i really going to get banned constantly for getting reported by people from the few matches i do lose naturally?

 

Even despite the build, pushing 3400 as any mk5 ship is now nearing the max it can get.
The fact that @Miku Da Yo 39 has made it there with this build is a testament to him TRYING to win.
Not to mention he posted videos of him tearing sh** up yesterday.

Can almost guarantee the ban was due to reports by angry team mates on the few matches you have lost (not intentionally) and possibly even games you win (and possibly even contribute the most)

 

Looks fun as hell lol


Go @Miku Da Yo 39 !

 

Yeah i'll share some videos of how well this build works both as a team and in 1 vs 3 situations.

 

You are missing the fact that I have not said that I disagreed with your use of the tape...only with your use of the fixer itself, based on your own statement here that you are not out there healing. The comment I originally replied to. That's the heart of it. I do not see this as a tape issue. I'm sorry. I just don't.

 

Duct tape is a horrible item, but if the devs are going to ban for using them they should delete the item.

This ban is unfair

 

Of course he is, he's healing himself, which is enough to keep the "team" alive. He's a diversion, a ship that draws tons of fire and ability to recover. Not everything relies to be completely black & white here, why should you dictate as to what is appropriate and what isn't? It works (see above video).
Every other ship is selfish too if you think that being a self-fixing fixer is, why must it be different? A tesla-shield only blocks the ship itself, is it selfish?

 

If you disagree with my use of the fixer not healing then you are essentially ignoring everything i just said. How i use the fixer is effective and working. Who are you to judge that a fixing fixer is more effective than how i play my fixer? Can we just accept our different play styles as variety?

 

Honestly it is your choice but i prefer fixers with other equipment because usaly I'm the first guy targeted on my team (kind of annoying but anyway) so i need heals XP

Take This With A Grain Of Pepper

 

You Should Fleet With A Defender For A Better Win Chance, You Stand infront OF Defender And Block Enemy Shots... He Does Damage = WIN

 

It isn't that horrible, watch the Videos.

The ban was most likely due to the overwhelming amount of reported messages. It is indeed unfair if this is the case.

 

I like your way of thinking LOL, but in b4 we get rekt by ex cannon xD

 

And stuns (that block healing) , watch out!

 

hmm... thats why more defense points are needed
soooo, tier5 carronades wont rip you apart

 

Flare and frost too, even triple tape can't counter it! Now is tape really that OP lol

 

Miika said the most reported players get their accounts checked then banned if appropriate. So they had to have seen him trying to win with duct tape and still decided to ban

And I prefer my fixers not to have duct tape but that's just my preference. But I still find this an unfair ban

 

actually. i bet you would never get reported if you fleeted with another fixer XD
