Seems interesting, but I don't really understand how it works. It shoots a projectile like Rico, but the projectile sucks tanks into it and deals damage as it flies through the map? Sounds somewhat interesting.

Just do vars.list in the console: http://tnkscr.net/4QHd8G.png

That's it. As far as I know, the other ones have no noticeable effect when players use them.

I open them 5 at a time. The last few weren't particularly great - mostly grays and occasional greens.

If you have more than 2651 hours with it, then yes.

So... I thought 15 seconds was long. I saw this one dropping on the enemy base in the corner of my screen. Went towards it, got killed, respawned, went to the enemy base again and still managed to take it. The box was laying on the ground for a solid 20-25 seconds, because none of the enemy players died and they were all driving around the middle, trying to find the gold. Still can't believe I got it.

Was it a pop-up you got after ranking up? Because I remember there was another post about the same thing. I think developers forgot to remove that unused alteration from the rank pop-up, but it's not available in the garage. The screenshot is from the V-log, where they made the initial announcement of new alterations.

Light Capacitors is the only alt that has "light" in its name, while Round Stabilisation for Railgun is the only one that kind of looks like a drill. There aren't any unpublished alterations, as far as I know. There's also this one for Shaft and it really does look like a drill, but it was never added in the first place (probably planned and then cancelled), so it shouldn't be visible anywhere.

I'm not sure what you're confused about. The freestand record can't be done in space mode because that makes it too easy due to the reduced gravity. As for your highest percentage of fund record - it's valid, but we're currently discussing whether it will be accepted.

Not in space mode.

Impressive, but we can't accept it due to the fact that it breaks game rules. On one hand you were winning by a large margin, so you could afford to mess about. On the other hand you literally blocked your teammate, who had the flag, and your actions resulted in the enemy flag being returned. That's sabotage. We'll only accept this record if it's done in DM/JGR. Maybe TDM, but even that is a stretch.

That Shaft had no idea there was a container just sitting behind him :lol: :lol: :lol: It was there for a good 10-15 seconds before a guy from our team finally took it. Longest I've ever seen a container laying on the ground.

Balance would be nice. At the very least there should be a limit on how many upgrades a lower rank can have on their drones, and less upgraded drones should use less batteries.

Drones are an end-game item. You're supposed to buy and upgrade them only when you're in a situation when you literally have nothing else to buy, meaning that you have a garage full of all of the hulls, turrets, most alterations and 50% modules. So unless you are at that point or close to it, I would never recommend spending on drones, since it's a massive waste for the most part.

True, true. I feel like I'm pretty advanced with Wasp, but I still struggle with flipping and getting knocked around by mines, bad textures and high impact turrets.

Yeah pretty much. I guess it works as an alteration for Shaft though, since a lot of the existing alterations already basically turn one turret into another.

Use mouse controls, hold right click and turn your camera. The turret will stay in place as long as you're holding the mouse button.

Short range, medium range, long range: Wasp > Everything else :ph34r:

Well, isn't that technically what the whole game is about? Pushing the right buttons at the right time?

To me Hunter is far better than Viking. I always use it and it's handling and manoeuvrability feels far superior. Also Wasp>Hornet.

Which older version? In pre-rebalance times (before 2012) is was Rico and Freeze dominating in most battles. Then it was Firebird and Twins for a long time. Then it was Isida and Vulcan, then Magnum, then Firebird, then Freeze, and now it's Vulcan, Striker, Hammer, and a few other OP alts. Balance was never perfect in Tanki, but at least now it seems like all turrets and hulls are playable and I'm seeing the biggest variety of equipment in games than ever before. Supplies are a different story. They make the game more dynamic and add a separate element of skill, since you need to carefully decide which supplies you want to activate and when - this was not the case before Smart Cooldowns, and people used to spam all 3 supplies as soon as they spawn.

At this point all these updates were so long ago that discussing them is pointless. Every single argument for and against them has already been said multiple times, and all these features have existed (or been removed) for years, so no point even talking about their removal/re-addition. As for making a separate "Legacy" server, I'll just copy-paste the same reply I always use for this suggestion: Either way, for most of your opinions you're in the minority. Most players already got used to the not-so-new changes like new turrets and graphics, as well as new paints, matchmaking, etc. That's just a necessity for an old free-to-play game to survive. They tried doing only cosmetic purchasable items in Tanki X, but had to abandon the idea because it seems like it wasn't bringing in enough revenue.

Well, yeah :D I like these turrets and I respect opponents who use them. Also, Thunder and Hammer are actually OK to fight against when using Wasp. But with Rico and Twins it's just a massive pain because of their knockback, while Isida is just a lame turret that requires little to no skill.
