I use mouse controls. I aim my turret backwards while I turn my hull the other way and start driving. Then I lock turret with the right mouse button and keep firing while I turn the camera to drive forwards.

I made a quick unedited video to show the augment in a normal battle. Not my best game but I can't be bothered to play more today.

I also posted some results in Picture of the Day. It's not as powerful as EMP Twins or other broken augments, but it does its job well and its fun to use.

Are you Guys sure that Twins Turbo is weak? I was expecting Autocannon levels of memes but damn. Keep in mind that two battles were with Brutus and one with Defender.

Dictator HD looks good, but I am concerned by the fact that it will be smaller...

You are supposed to use the single shot against moving targets and the lock on against stationary tanks / groups of enemies. It's always amusing to see Strikers who drive around trying to lock on and getting destroyed, same thing with Gauss players always aiming instead of using the arcade shot most of the time.

I am playing with Turbo Twins, and to me it does not seem weak at all. It's quite powerful with all those 300/600+ crits, and the speed and range of the projectiles is amazing. It also 100% matches my playstyle so that also helps. Only one thing, it's useless vs Armadillo, but it's the only downside I can find so far.

I don't think I'll ever use this since I hate having projectiles that slow, but still better than a paint

Exactly, most people will just purchase one bundle and be done with it, especially since the last Fund went reasonably ok, and this one looks very promising. People might buy soon this time instead of waiting until the end of the event.

I personally predict that Tesla Pulsar is going to work a bit like this: Advantages Ball lightning activates the following status effects: Jammer: 2 sec Electromagnetic Pulse: 1 sec Stun: 1 sec Armor-Piercing: 2 sec Burning: 4 sec Lightning ball speed = 75 m/sec Lightning ball range = 1000 m Disadvantages Lightning ball damage: -90% Lightning ball warmup time: +100%

Exactly, this feature is just annoying and makes it hard to determine which drone the enemy is using. (or even yourself, one time I entered a battle with Defender instead of Brutus and had to change it back...)

Yes it was. Keep in mind that back then most high rank players or even buyers were at least decent, not like today where half of the Legend players play like a WO1 or worse. As of why was it a P2W mess, I already explained in my previous post.

Are we talking pre-RB or post-RB? I was talking pre-RB. Lieutenant to General Ranks: You had most players running around with Firebird M3, Twins M3, Railgun M3, Isida M3; those were the "cannon fodder" who had little to no weight in a Battle (sad I know) Then you had a few with Thunder M1, Freeze M1, Rico M1 who still struggled quite a bit. Who had M2 Tier 2 equipment was the "strongest" who could turn the tides of a match, but if someone with an M3 combo showed up, it was game over. (especially with a protection paint which were OP when compared to F2P prot paints, we are talking 40% vs 15%-20%) Then as I said, Supplies were extremely strong. A drugging M1 player could easily be stronger than an M2 with no supplies. Edit: also, yes in theory rank differences were minimal, but Turret modification brackets were not. M3s used to unlock way, way before Marshal. This is why you could find two players with the same rank, one with Ricochet M1, Dictator M2 + Jaguar, and another one with Ricochet M3, Viking M3 + Spark. Completely unbalanced. And when I myself reached Rico M3, I was still able to face players with M1 Twins and Titan who went down with like 3 bullets. True you could choose a game you liked, but nothing prevented awful takeovers and unbalanced games which were determined by who had the best equipment and the most supplies. The point I am trying to make is, true TO today sucks, and in the old times it was more simple and "balanced", but it has always been a P2W mess. And last thing, F2P was awful. I had 0, yes, I mean zero supplies most of the time, and if someone decided to use them I was at their mercy. I remember losing games after games, gaining EXP and ranking up, while winning 20-30 crystals at best, if my team was able to capture at least ONE flag, otherwise the prize was zero crystals for the whole team. This is exactly why I decided to buy a little to have it easier, and why most people did back then. But as I said before, you only had to do so once or twice.

TO has always been P2W, the only difference is that in the old times you only needed to buy once or twice for an M3 combo and some supplies and you were golden. I clearly remember how you could be playing with an M1 combo with like 30 supplies available, in a match full of M0/M1/M2 tanks and suddenly a buyer with Rico M3/Vik M3/Spark would join, spam Supplies and dominate completely. Buyers like that were untouchable, the difference between M1, M2 and M3 was huge and Supplies gave an enormous advantage. Modifications were so strong that when I purchased Viking M2 and Ricochet M2 at Lieutenant rank (yes I did buy a little) I destroyed everyone so easily that I can't even replicate it in today's Tanki with EMP Twins/Paladin/Defender... there are just too many counters and ODs nowadays.

Ah Magnetron, I'll rate it balanced/10

Based on your Augments, I would recommend Tesla which is powerful both in attack and defense. Stun and AP will be useful in most situations. And I would also recommend Shaft, since you got Healing. That augment will be useful even with a stock mk7 Combo, and will let you rack up crystals easily for future upgrades. As of now, Ricochet is trash besides Helios so I would Skip it, but you know, the Devs like to rebalance things every week or so...

They literally took M0 Hammer, stuck a couple of red dots in, and called it a new skin.

Yeah Helios will get nerfed for sure once everyone reaches it, maybe one or two weeks after the event. Also, we basically have confirmation that every turret will get a Pulsar Augment. How fun...

Also Hammer LC? What Hammer LC, Hammer never had an LC Skin, the only thing it had was a prototype skin, this one: LC? Blasphemy I say.

Did the UFO little green guys switch the cables again? ...

I believe it's an edited screenshot but I'm not sure, I found it on Google.

Still does not work as intended. You might as well give out 13UTs and call it a day at this point.
