Splitting needs some balance imo. Makes midgame nearly impossible.
I like to incorporate some natural selection while playing.
I'll get a cell big enough to hide inside one of the spike cells, but not too large where it'll explode if it eats someone. Or I'll get one that's just big enough to fit over the spike cell and not break it. Then I'll lure a larger cell toward me and get them to explode. Doesn't work as well as hiding inside the spike cell though.
W boosting is REALLY powerful as a large cell. Repeated mashing of it loses barely much mass while making you far more agile than you have any right to be. I used it to chase down the number 4 AND 5 guy on US West to become number 1 as cancer from number 3. Then I divided myself rapidly because number 1 got boring. Plus, if your prey tries to boost to get away, he's only feeding your boosts anyways.
I don't get how the spike things work, as long as you fit inside them can you hide there indefinitely?
Do they reset the servers after certain amounts of time?
So err who was the big facepunch that just ate all of europe? I was the slightly smaller facepunch that was part of that mess.

riot pls nerf
split power should be based on size, you should have less force the fatter you are

If you eat them you burst
if you're bigger than the green spike then you'll explode
if you're smaller it can be used as safezone
thank you garry's mod for contributing to facepunch in u.s. west
I wish it had a bigger map and asteroids style infinite scrolling
HORSE COCK reigned supreme on USEast and then fed myself to everyone.
Whenever I do good I have a bad name.
Also, there's a cia skin but no bane? What a ripoff.
Ejecting mass seems pretty strong right now, but maybe that's just because the people I'm going after don't use it to escape :v:

It's too costly for small-medium mass cells.

I got 1st place for a couple of minutes
how do you do well i always get to like 200-300 and get eaten
I kept getting annihilated whenever I played as Communism, Socialism, Ingsoc or Stalinists.
And then I renamed myself to "Wall Street" and got to second place.
Ladies and Gentlemen, I have proven that capitalism is superior.
I do ok when I play as i eat ass
I was playing as Esidisi on US East, got #1 until the server reset.
The big guys tend to split into smaller balls, so if you're bigger than one of the smaller guys, you can pretty much swoop in and eat them all.
Fun game.
Ejecting mass on huge blobs is no longer broken as shit. Thank god

Don't be afraid to split. One blob ejects at stupid speeds. This is both an attack strategy and your "don't die" card. Granted, you'll probably still lose half your mass to whoever's after you, but better half of it than all of it.
Or at least that's how I stay alive

who's on US West as systemd? I laughed harder than I should have
I was literally this close to becoming the king of the universe, me and Steam splitted at somewhat the exact same frame, and he realized that we were close enough that one of us had to unsplit at one point, and eat the other one
he wasn't thinking clearly and our movement made his smaller blob be in front of the bigger one, making it impossible to connect, while my bigger one was in front, making it easy as heck for me to connect into one huge blob and eat him whole
but these servers crash way too often

my tactic: fuck around the virus blobs and use them as shields when the big ones take notice of your existence, and fuck around in groups - most of the players refuse to split if theres a chance for a third party to eat them up. And if they do, they won't do it in their next gameplay.
the end-game meta and constantly figuring out when to split is my favourite, outwittigin ppl in the top leaderboard is quite easy if it's their first time - they get too greedy hella often
the press q to poop addition is pretty weak, it only delays the inevitable
althought i cna sense potential in feeding a fat fuck who's sitting between 3 viruses
need an aussie servre man
