I love this game until someone who isnt big enough to eat me decides to follow/chase me around and i end up running into the top player warzone
[QUOTE=jason3232;47690968]First, you kinda need to collect a certain amount of mass before you can fully 'shoot' a virus.
Second, you're weak as hell when you're collecting / shooting, and if you wish to absorb the big guy after splitting him, you need to collect even more so that you'll still be big enough after shooting a virus. If you're not big enough, you might even get absorbed by the split-out smaller cells after splitting.
It takes effort to split a big cell.[/QUOTE]
Most people shoot you without the intent to collect anything. And you can gather enough mass to split #1 using a virus in a few minutes.
imo the only game breaking feature currently is when like four people get on teamspeak and team up which is really not fixable

Also it seems like nobody on Reddit thinks the same either.[/QUOTE]
When you are 150 mass you are sacrificisng nothing.
But yeah, nobody agrees with me. Guess the game is ruined for me. I predict that in a week everyone will have their rage of getting shot with a virus without any way to defend self and the feature will go away. Until then I will stop playing, its not fun anymore.

It's really easy to defend against by just not going near viruses, which you generally can do. Plus, once you get big enough you can just go eat the viruses, ideally by just popping a small one of your blobs to hit max split.

Eeeh, at 3k mass you can't ever be not near viruses. Especially when chased by someone almost double your size.
Eating viruses requires you to be max split. Recipe for disaster. I don't want to be max split unless I fucked up and ran into a virus (when it's justified and makes sense).

How do you shoot viruses?
[QUOTE=Nystical;47692146]How do you shoot viruses?[/QUOTE]
Press W to eject mass into a virus, it'll get bigger and then split into another virus.

We need a Sinistar skin. Now.
Half of me wishes there was a key to hold position so I can quickly alt tab to do other things
one time I was medium sized and had to answer a skype call and got fucked when I moved in the wrong direction
How much mass do you need to shoot a virus at a spike ball to make it expand? (How much to shoot, and how much to make it expand)
Also what direction does it go?
i was playing a game as ukraine on europe
was eaten by france :(
Someone said you can eat viruses somehow. Is this true?
You can right click on the game and move your mouse to another tab to stay still. I like hiding inside spike balls to pounce on anyone who comes by.

Yes, just roll over them when you are the biggest cell in the game. Also, F5 brings up the chat window.
hardmode: play as "tumblr" on a website occupied by redditors, 4chan posters, and facepunchers
edit: i have made an ally. one ally: pornhub
A russian guy fed me so I fed him a lot, later he helped me by feeding me again in a pinch.
~10 minutes later he went from #1 to #7, so I fed him almost all of mine and now he's #1
when you see TURBO AIDS on Europe, holla at a nigga
damn, had a really lovely moment, I teamed up with a guy called "Teamwork 1" and we fed each other back and forth and would help trap enemies and eat them. I felt I let him down though, cause I got him killed this one time accidentally, cause he was spam feeding me all his mass when he was gonna get eaten, but just the thought of losing him, I kept feeding him back and I didn't think about how it'd slow him down. He could have escaped if my love for him didn't blind me :(
just nuked a facepuncher as tumblr and im not ashamed
I just had the best playthrought and most fun I have had in a video game in a month or more!
I was playing as FP.Hardwork and tried to team up with people. Was chasing some Switzerland when I decided to shoot some mass it's way.
We forget an alliance. Protected eachother. After a lucky split I became #2. Switzlerland would play as a small blob, shoot viruses at huge people and help me eat them up. He would protect me.
Whenever he split he would feed half of him to me, I would give his mass back.
Then we got fucked over and died, I lost my friend Switzerland and I tried to find another friend. I forged another alliance with KaroPLsomething guy.
Long story short, later Switzerland returned and we owned the server. Completely. Up until it reset the #1 was always either me, Switzerland or the Polish guy. We all had our chance to be the huge awkward blob and our chance to protect others.
It's incredible how complex our communication with mass throws was. Like, if I was chasing a huge blob (as a huge blob) I would throw some mass Switzerland's way and he would shoot a virus at the enemy.
Or if someone was chased by a bigger blob (not huge size, just average) we would spam him with mass so the hunter suddenly (for him) became the prey.
Damn, we played it for 3 hours straight this way. Other players must have hated us. I noticed they were teaming up too though.
This is of course absolutely rude to other players. Like if someone got bursted with a virus than others would eat his mass and give it back.
At least we did something good. Because we could instantly regain mass we would suicide-ram all viruses in our way so the play field got cleaner. A bit.

Chased around a Facepuncher as Feminism. Had like 5 allies too, which makes this game a lot easier, since you can cut someone off so your ally can get them.
when I get spaced by the biggest cell while in the smallest form I rage quit every single time.
Or worse, get into number one position then the game randomly fucking disconnects you to another one.
