Topic merged Sounds simple, but in reality this would require more effort than anything developers have ever done before. Implementing it probably wouldn't be difficult, but getting the data and algorithms required to accurately auto-translate text requires insane amounts of funding. Absolutely not worth it.

Apparently not. According to devs, they lost way more players during the 2015 phase of no updates than during any other phase in the game, including the times when a lot of players complained about updates.

10 flags is a stretch, since the field only lasts about 20 seconds. But I'm telling you - in CTF a couple flags are often enough to win. A single mammoth that uses two overdrives in one game can quite easily capture those two flags, especially if they have an Isida and other teammates helping. Scoring goals in Rugby is ridiculously easy, stealing flags in CTF will be a bit more challenging. But it's still way too OP compared to the other overdrives.

Yes, for Viking4s French is his native language.

Well... You're not wrong. Tanki was always an arcade game, and it was always had a futuristic dystopian theme. And it is indeed online.

I spent 4 hours playing with Mammoth yesterday. Maybe it's a lot different and more balanced at M3 and lower, but with M4 getting golds and capping flags/balls has never been easier. It's insane!

1 - "спс" "мда" means "thx" and sort of like a disappointed sigh. 2 - Insults 3 - Isida thx for the game 4 - ZloyDanuJI got it right 5 - Vulcan is dead oh actually [banned for flood]

Alright, that's a solid point. I just estimated it based on what I saw. Still, considering the massive scale of this update and how much it changes gameplay, the end result is pretty good. All they need to do now is nerf Mammoth's OD, or at least make Hunter stop it.

Oh, it really looked like you were using one. Anyway, it's best to avoid guessing, or at least mention which ones you're not sure about.

Please don't use automatic translators in this topic. It often doesn't help.

We've been thinking of making a topic like this when we created a new section, but decided it was unnecessary. But seeing that you created the topic and people are actively posting here (these posts were moved), we now made the topic, so you can find it here. Also, the title you came up with is way better than anything we had in mind, so thanks :) Closed.

We already have plenty of places where you can share your impressions of overdrives: Tanki Picture of the Day Let's Discuss Overdrives Overdrives official announcement Please post overdrive pictures there. Closed.

Nah, I didn't care much for the gold box. I just really enjoyed the visual effect and it made me laugh hard when I saw that. You do have a point, since it's true that most players will react positively to an update if it benefits them in particular (even if it's bad for others), but in this case you'll find that the update is getting a lot more positive feedback than usual. Most players are saying that the update works very well and is actually quite balanced.

Wait, so it "locks on", but then fires a barrage into the point where the rockets locked on, even if the tank you locked on to already moved away? I guess that's interesting, but it also seems mostly useless with the exception of very few situations.

Valid I find it unlikely, but it is indeed quite an interesting concept.

Yeah, Discord.

I like how this is no longer necessary since Strikers completely disappeared from JGR as soon as overdrives were added.

I actually wasn't with any of these mammoths - we just all went for the gold box and happened to have overdrive ready. But to get into the same DM battle with a friend you just need to have similar ranks and press the DM MM button at the same time. Most of the time it works.

Yeah, got it :P

True, but on large maps it's unlikely that any of the heavy hulls will be able to find and get to the gold in time. Anyway, to me the game is more about the objective, not just gold boxes.

I post constructive criticism when I have it. This update isn't perfect - it still appears to have some bugs despite all the testing devs have done. But as a feature, overdrives seem truly exciting, quite balanced and a fun new skill to learn. Really puts a new twist on the game, which has been getting a bit stale lately. I don't expect you to believe me, but I'm telling you - there is absolutely NO extra bonuses given to helpers if they post positive feedback. All comments you see are (or should) be genuine.

Man, I haven't had this much fun in Tanki for a LONG time. Epic update :D LOL :lol:
