New content? You mean like new gamemodes and new maps? Like new Hulls like Hopper? And new content such as the new balanced Augments like AP, EMP and Stun? Also, the new HD skins are NOT free new content, those are a NEEDED update to the game's old 2013 graphics, if Tanki wants to survive in today's world. The only thing I found worth purchasing was a few tankoins for the BP. The value was pretty good considering what you got overall. But if the prices are going up, then the few bucks I spent here and there through the year will go elsewere.

Yeah, but burning crystals like that is not wise.

You know what else gets on my nerves? The damn Micro-Upgrade waiting mechanic. I have all the Crystals I need to upgrade to MK8 but I have to wait roughly 64 days. This mechanic is old, it used to be in the game before Tankoins, when you still used to purchase crystals, so players would spend money to speed up prices. But today? What is the point of this? I don't think anybody is silly enough to purchase crystals anymore when there is the Battle Pass.

I understand you want to sound positive and you are trying to cheer people up. And I don't know how old you are. But please. This situation is crystal clear, and the devs know very well what they are doing. There is no need to deny or defend any of this.

Of all the cool Animated Paints I could find, what do I get? sigh

I guess the name is apt for the enemies, who will have an hell of a time facing it.

It's nice to see that someone agrees with me. if you read my previous posts, I have said very similar things.

This game does not reward skill-based gameplay, as it caters to little kids with money to waste. They have no idea on how to win using regular equipment, so they have to use overpowered and broken stuff in order to achieve something. I guess they are only happy to win, not to actually play the game. Imagine joining a Bow and Arrow competition, but you suck at aiming so you show up with an AK-47... Same thing.

A mode like this does not make any money for the Devs, and it subtract players from MM battles. The Staff already hates Pro Battles, so any game mode similar to that one will never exist.

OG paints: Hohloma, Spark, Emerald, Inferno, Zeus. New paints: Obsidian (I wish I had it), Burst of Light, Electric Sheep, PCB (on HD tanks only), Alien Regeneration, Alien Abduction, Night City (it has an AE86 on it), and my favorite of them all: Quantum Camo. (I am so mad that one of my smurfs got it in a container, but still no luck on my main)

Me and my good buddy @JustBlackWolf chilling after beating up some Wallet Warriors.

This was the fastest battle in my Tanki "career". We had not one, but TWO 9999 Hopper + Crisis. One captured, the other took the flag... and the rest of the plebs team spawn camped the enemies. Whoever says that specific combo in CTF - Rugby is not broken, is a clown.

Excuse me my good Sir, but I would call those years the "silver age" This one was the golden age

If you are placed in a terrible battle (with a lot of legend players) or in a map you do not like, then just leave and search again. I often leave 3-4 battles each time before I decide to play. I usually exit when facing obvious buyers with broken equipment (I don't have time to waste being their cannon fodder), I exit if in my team there are around 6000GS players and in the enemy 8000+, and finally I will exit a battle right away if it's a map I do not want to play in.

Yeah I figured that was the case. In the future I'll go with Dictator since I already have Heat Immunity. Thx

Again, I disagree. I don't know your rank, but in Legend battles you will often see 9999GS players with Plasma Torch Ricochet dominating. And that Augment does not require much skill, just get close and shoot. Of course, it also depends on the map, if a player brings that Turret to Stadium or Berlin and he gets screwed by Gausses and Railgun, it's not Ricochet's fault, he's just dumb.

I agree, it's a really strong Turret, and I feel like it has been in a good position in the meta for quite a while now. This is my second battle with Ricochet, bone stock (MK7-1) paired with Adrenaline + Viking hull: As I said before, you definitely need a Hull with a bit of HP to win most of the engagements, but I would not recommend Heavy Hulls, unless you get to play in really small maps.

If you have Hunter then use that, there is barely any difference compared to Viking, the speed isn't that noticeable. IMHO, you should keep Ricochet/Hunter for Small/Medium range maps, and another Turret for bigger maps. (Railgun, Gauss, etc.)

Yeah, Twins/Ricochet have never been a good pairing with Wasp/Hornet. Those are DPS weapons meant to win a 1v1 engagement, so you need a few hp and a stable hull to do so. I'd say Viking or Hunter are the best ones for those guns.

...interesting. Still, if anyone has an opinion or an answer to my questions, I would appreciate it.

I have a couple of questions regarding this Turret, since the sales are coming and I'm thinking about maybe buying it. Is Vulcan/Viking a good combination? It seems that Viking OD doesn't benefit Vulcan as much as other guns. (Rail or Twins/Viking OD is an absolute killing machine, but with Vulcan the effect is barely noticeable) Is Incendiary Band + Heat Immunity mandatory to achieve high results? (I am talking about Legend Ranks) Lastly, how's Adrenaline paired with this Turret? Is it worth it? Thanks.

Balance (or lack of thereof) aside, I really like how Hunter HD looks. I usually hate changes, but Hunter always looked like a un ugly fat Viking to me, and now it has a much more interesting shape. I can't wait to see how Dictator HD will look.

I have never used Shaft with a keyboard, I only started using it when Mouse Controls where introduced. You can make the most accurate pixel shots, and you can block your aim somewhere to hide your laser.

LCR Railgun with 6 Seconds EMP effect. Just to make sure to always win a duel thanks to dad's Credit Card. The Tanki Online 2021 experience. Umh, it actually sounds good for a slogan.
