Hey guys, remember when animated paints were RARE? Hah ?

How significant is the difference? Also, could it be that MM balances not just by current GS, but by garage contents, previous battles, overall K/D, supply use, and a bunch of other factors we don't know about. Did of those battles end up being even or won by the disadvantaged team, despite the GS difference?

What seems to be the case here is that you're being shot by a Hornet Railgun, which has its own overdrive activated. Hornet's overdrive completely ignores all additional protection, including Titan's dome, which is why they would be able to take out a lot of your health or even kill you with one shot. This is an intentional feature and it applies to all turrets when combined with Hornet, not just Railgun.

You know, it's funny how this idea would have been completed with the spawn protection update, but developers specifically disabled that feature in format battles. Ironic.

Just gonna casually bump this up... Today I learned that you can select part of the text in any post, and a button will appear that allows you to quote that selection right away, instead of having to quote the whole post and edit out unneeded parts.

You're confusing it with challenges. By "top tier", I mean a fully upgraded Mk7 tank combo with a drone, supplies, and fully upgraded modules. In other words, highest tier gameplay items that help you win in battles are possible to obtain for free, as opposed to some other games, where the only way to get the highest damaging exclusive weapons is to buy them with real money.

...yet. The number of skins will only keep going up. Animated paints were also a rarity for the first 6-10 months after they were introduced, but once they started appearing in challenges, people began accumulating them faster than normal paints. Same with skins - I'm sure that in one or two years we will have a vast variety of easily obtainable skins, so no one would be using the default modification skin anyway, even without the Mk update. But isn't GS simply a case of comparing whether it's higher or lower than your own? You don't need to try and convert it to an equivalent modification on the fly, since you just check whether the GS is higher than yours, and if it is, then the enemy you're facing is potentially more powerful than you.

"OP tank for $$$" implies equipment more powerful than any other item, and only possible to acquire by paying real money. Not TKs from missions, not challenges, not saving crystals for a long time. I know Tanki isn't exactly making it easy for free players to get the top tier stuff, but the fact is that it's possible, even oif extremely difficult.

Would you rather it was to sell exclusive OP tanks for $$$ only?

Nah man, that's 2013 Tanki you're talking about ? As soon as micro-upgrades got introduced it was no longer possible to judge the power of any tank in front of you. And don't tell me about "R" info because no one has time to press and read all that mid-battle. Right now we have the semi-helpful Gear Score, but the tank's texture has been useless ever since XTs got turned into skins and became possible to acquire and equip at any modification. Skins are purely cosmetic now - there's no getting away from that.

To encourage purchase of special skins in order to stand out, obviously. But like I said - there should be more "budget" cosmetic options, meaning either old M0-M2 skins re-introduced for crystals, or brand new tank add-ons like side skirts and bumpers which could still be overpriced (under 1000tk), but at the same time affordable since they only change a small part of your tank, rather than the whole exterior.

Unfortunately this is required for the record, hence why some of the records have minimum rank limits in order to apply for them. This is because some records are incredibly easy to beat at the lowest ranks, making the record itself meaningless.

Why specifically in an event?

Unlikely. The RU forum has been updated since 2017 and they haven't added this functionality.

I hope they're make the M0-M2 skins available for crystals like how it was in Tanki X. I get that they're cosmetic items not needed for gameplay, but I really doubt there would be a lot of real-money buyers for lame low grade skins. Quite a few people would want to buy them for crystals though.

Defender is balanced :x

When a topic gets merged, it means the suggestion is either identical or very similar. The topic was already forwarded to developers in one of the earlier reports.

You need all 8 people to cooperate. Can't have more than 3 in a group. So you'd have to either somehow get a bunch of your friends to click at the same time and hope to fill a team, or end up with just the right kind of random teammates.

@DieselPlatinum @TheCongoSpider @Potdindy @Retaliate Congo spider is right, these records are broken ONLY with Dictator and Mechanic drone combo. Nothing to do with hacks or Driver drone. Mechanic at full MU actually has larger range than Dic's overdrive, and overall gives more points per minute, so Dictator is just an added bonus. However, both are necessary to get over 2000 points. Assuming 100% efficiency, you can activate Mechanic once every 10 seconds, and you can probably activate OD once every 30 seconds. So assuming all 7 teammates are in range when you use it, that's (10*7*3)+(25*7) = 210+175 = 385 points in 30 seconds. Now, at that point you wouldn't be able to speed up the repair kit's recharge because you cannot activate your own supplies (since you just used your OD), so at that point it's actually more efficient to self-destruct and start over fresh, despite the 10 point penalty. Since respawning also takes around 10 seconds, you can basically continue the process non-stop over and over for the whole 7 minutes, therefore the potential highest score in 7 minutes is around 5300, to which you could also add bonus points from capturing bases and getting kills. Obviously this kind of record requires incredible levels of coordination from teammates and complete incompetency of the enemy, so around 3000 is a reasonable amount for a record with favourable conditions in a normal MM game.

Actually, the majority of income comes from people who occasionally spend only small amounts of money on little things like special offers, battle pass, a few coinboxes, etc. The major OP buyers may be spending a lot, but they are so rare that the income from them is insignificant compared to the general masses.

Is there a way to sort by post count though? ? Nvm apparently I don't know how to scroll. Also yay, I finally... win?

Alright, I stand corrected.

Nah, I think that one was literal invulnerability, like Mammoth OD before the nerf.

Since the game experiences balance updates fairly often, there is never a single "best" turret and hull. It also depends on the player's own preference and play style, which is why you don't see everyone playing the same universally best combo all the time. We have plenty of topics where you can discuss equipment, so please use those for discussions like this: Let's discuss turrets and hulls Let's discuss equipment combos What to buy? Which is better?
