10 is bedtime. i've got two little boys and work for a living.
and you should know by now ts ain't my thing--i'm an indie man, but i'll give some 9:00 ts games a try...

you responding to my post will only reassure ppl who kept calling me "wolf" last night that you're me or i'm you.

ts works much better here than on IA.
There is time to develop rhythm to the game.
To meld with your teammates (sometimes).
To have some streaks and rally's and close endings.
Not just the insta end before it really starts.

definitely like the longer games, but this is a totally different game than on i.a. and i don't mean looks.
shooting is impossible for me here and this is much more of a shooters game.
tanks do not allow as much drift, and for me drift is crucial.
it will take some adaptation.

I've noticed a few IA converts saying that the original TT is harder to aim than IA. I don't understand why. For one, the screen is bigger. Also, the reticles actually point to where the bullet is going to go, rather than IA's squint and guess method. Bounceback powerup is even more worthless on IA. Regarding drift, IA claims that the physics are the same between the two versions, but I noticed my tank slides all over the place on IA. Guess some adaptation is necessary, like TC said. Try exploring the skin gallery, you might find some things to help you, like fancy reticles. Also, make sure your rates are set.
Welcome n stuff.

Ugh, I tried IA the other day, It Sucks!
I keep trying to convert people to the Original but they just won't listen.

the reticle here is not inferior just the setup is sufficiently different to require a lot of getting used to. at i.a. the green reticle is sort of where the bullets go, here the green part is just the beginning of that tubish thing with the red reticle spot being where the bullets go. if you're used to aiming with the big green reticle and then suddently that's just the front end of the reticle it's very confusing. particularly for the semi-elderly :)
