  1. i play moslty hardcore polygone matches and DM, and i want K/D ratio removed, for a simple fact: people judge you by it when they shouldn't. i hope everyone take a look at my 1.93 K/D before you say that only people with K/D lower than 1 want this feature. my 1.93 K/D ratio doen't mean that i'm better than someone with 0.80 K/D, and that's that's the main problem with players here, because i don't want people to judge each other by that variable, and they do, no matter how much you say they don't, just between you and yourselves you know that you respect a +1K/D guy more than 0.80 guy. plus, if the K/D is not importent, then why all clans demand a K/D above 1 ? and why most players don't want theire K/D to go bellow 1 then ? most of the K/D ratios are either 1 or just a little bit under 1, so why it should be there anyway (i'm talking only about legends here, not noobs) we have the same level of skills, and 90% of us, the legends have a K/D of 0.80 up to 1.65 so why that number matter ? anyway,Tanki is known for having only the bad updates so i'm sure this won't be added after all, and one more reason that it won't be added is that most opinions here doesn't want this, players have grown such a bad hate for any kind of updates, and i understand why: So much updates in the last months. anyway, i take back my Idea, enjoy.
  2. i have to admit that This is even a better than my original idea, i hope this one will be added instead of mine, because with just removing the deaths count+the K/D ratio will give us freedome to die as much as we like in parkour or any mode in the same time where we can still see how many kills we did since beginning.
  3. you see, most of guys, just like yourself, see that a K/D below 1 is bad, that's enough reason to remove that ratio from profiles, or at least make it optional. i have a K/D of 1.94 and i'm the one created this topic because i don't like when people judge others by theire K/D, i think it's better to be able to see your kills and deaths ratio, but it's not cool when everybody else can see it.

    Remove the K/D ratio from all profiles

    The K/D don't have any real value, I've seen some pro XP players with just 0.90 k/D ratio, and I've seen some really noob players with only shaft and Mammoth with K/D of above 5.00 so the K/D ratio doesn't mean how strong the player is. Oufa as example have an amazing 16.70 K/D, but that doesn't mean he is stronger than me, sure he is good, but not better than me just because i have 1.94 K/D, his K/D ratio only mean that he used power leveling, considering the fact that he have a LOT of friends to help him with that, and he have the buyer ability to encourage them to do it., so comparing the K/D of two players mean nothing. P.S: I'm not hating on Oufa, i know he is a good player, and I'm a big fan of his gold box skills, he was here just as simple example. The K/D ratio doesn't do any rule, it only make people get obsessed about their K/D and use even heavier hulls, wish lead to less funds due to less kills in battles, I myself started to use Thunder/Mammoth instead of Viking/twins just because i saw a 0.01 drop in my K/D ratio. we can't play parkour as much as we want because we are afraid of losing our K/D. we even change our playing style from close range Polygon matches to just stay safe and shoot from far away. XP/Bb battles always decrease my K/D, i love Xp/Bb but i hate to see my K/D goes down, i know it should mean nothing, but old players know that your K/D mean how strong you are, while in reality it doesn't serve that rule anymore, so it's has to go. and so many more troubles those few numbers do... but what the K/D ratio does anyway ? so please remove it (including the Kills and deaths count if possible). so my idea is simple, remove the kills/ deaths count and K/D ratio from our profile, or at least stop counting our deaths and kills in parkour mode.

    Let's Discuss Mammoth!

    i have mamouth M3, and to be honest, Titan M3 is way better now, in EVREYTHING, i regret byuing it and i'm get titan M3 as soon as I can.
  6. Don't tell me that you killed marshals being a low rank frequently because it's a lie, i remember those times. Even camping and stealing kills with rail was hard enough against those monster marshals. Exactly the same now, before the update, i've destroyed a whole enemy team filled with lieutenants and WO5 with a fully Mu'ed combo. The difference is just to big, is not worth it play with low ranks, boring as hell, they don't quit when you ask nicely, they block you, are slow even with hornets, usually don't know how to play, etc. There are ranks for a reason, it took me a long time get to generalissimo just to waste my time with noobs (no punt intended, we all were low ranks at some point)
  7. Just awesome update, no more useless lieutenants in my battles! For those who claim lower ranks friends, if you really want to play that much with your low rank friends, create a new account.

    People Take This Game Too Seriously

    You find nothing wrong with people camping for crystals and being useless? Or worst, mults, put there specifically to ruin games. Dude, there's something wrong with you. I don't care to much about alllies or friends, those can change battle to battle, but everyboy wants a real shot to the victory, some for crystals, others like me for joy. The mults and the players who use them are crummy.

    rail guns over powered?

    Rail is a very team dependant weapon, with the long reload time, you are vulnerable for long periods. All close range weapons own the rail if they can get close enough. I've played with m4 rails and they are strong, annoying, but not overpowered. Maybe at low ranks, where players prefer speed and turrets over defensive upgrades rail is stronger. Even the best rails struggles to kill those upgraded titans and even vikings.

    Why tankers don't like TDM?

    But in the other hand, in CTF you can win with a couple of noobs if your team is good but in TDM, with just a couple of idiots running to "kill", with scores like 2-56 can ruin the best team. Some people play TDM with wasp + no paint (how idiotic a noob can be?). I do love TDM, but it can be ruined by mults/noobs faster than any other mode.

    2-M3s or a single M4 . Lets discuss

    The paints in the range 50k-100k are a huge waste of crystals. For almost every paint in that range you can find a better one, with better stats, just more expensive. Why do i say wait for the more expensive ones? Paints are a pricey, and eventually, once you get to higher ranks, you will need every possible bit of protection. With the cheapest version(but not cheap at all, of course) you have two choices, MU the paint and spend more and more knowing that you are investing in something by default weaker. You will always be at disadvantage with the top paints. Or you may decide to buy the really top paint and then the cheapest one became useless(along with all those crystals invested in MU's if that's the case). I'm not saying you shouldn't buy any paint before emerald, zeus, etc It's some specific paints, costing like 80k, with a better version for let's say, 35k more who are not worth it at all. Probably is very useful have a couple of cheap paints (sort of, like 25-30k) you can use all the way and save for the real paints. There are paints who are a bargain for your bucks. I can't give you any inside or deeper analysis, the things have changed a lot since i wasn't top rank, i don't know how the game is played in lower ranks. Final advice, watch always for battles exclude generalissimos. All the hardcore players, the top buyers, stronger players, takeover players are generalissimos, so avoid us and probably you will do right in battle ;)

    Pretty much that's it in my opinion. You can argue about have some MU's before the best paints since they are cheap and very useful but anyway is ok. Also there is the possibility you get a huge discount in some specific kit or item, so the order may be adjusted a little bit in order to save crystals.

    2-M3s or a single M4 . Lets discuss

    How old are you? Since when 'kid' is an offense? Huge portion of players are just kids. It's impossible to have perfect rebalance, don't believe me, ask Hazel-rah, he explain it in a video blog. That's one reason why having only one M4 weapon is not the best thing. If you focus in what is strong now, maybe in 3 months became weak and almost useless, as it is rico now. Really? Why i would like to have two similar snipe weapons as my only turrets? That's just silly.

    Turret versus Hull

    Depends on your preferences. If you like something fast to grab flags, hit and run, you better go for the hull first. You won't get your points by killing that much, just going for flags, taking power-ups from the floor and specially, surviving to bring the flag home. Ex: for the combo hornet/freeze or firebird, go for M1 hornet first. What's the point of having a powerful weapon if you can't get close enough to use it? Trust me, i'm tired of kill in one shot hornets M1 or M2 who thought that going for freeze upgrade before the hull was a good idea. But if you like to shot and killl tanks, like thunder or rail. go for the weapon first. That's the first case, you don't have to be at close range, you will grab a flag here and there, but won't be your main goal.

    2-M3s or a single M4 . Lets discuss

    If you like rails (which is a monster weapon), go first for the turret M3, then M3 hull (hornet is the most common out there), in the middle, you can buy a cheap paint with some protection, but never go for the 60k+ paints! they are a huge waste of crys, there are better paints, with more protection against the same weapons (they are more expensive, but it worth it).

    2-M3s or a single M4 . Lets discuss

    Really, have you read my comment carefully? How many M3 weapons do you have? Not to say M4. I do have ALL weapons M3 and some of them M4. @Uchiha: What you should do is work as fast as you can in one combo M3, then work in a couple of good paints. Do not buy anything else, just one combo M3, first weapon M2 and then hull M2, after M3s (depends on your style, if you like more hornet/freeze or firebird to get flags, go for the hull first, you need to survive to use the short range weapon). After the paints, buy the first 3 or 4 MU in the important categories, they are cheap and the gain is big, just 3 or 4, the others are more expensive, it's better just go for the next M3. Last comment, track carefully the kits they sell, sometimes you can get good bargains for your crys. Good luck

    2-M3s or a single M4 . Lets discuss

    Don't lie to the kids, it's better have two weapons M3 than one M4. What is great today, after any "rebalance" can be trash and vice-versa. Rico back in the days was extremally powerful and now? Piece of crap, only usable in a few maps. Shaft have been thru several changes, very over-powered, then very weak, to strong again. My point is, what do you do, even M4, weapon who is plain and simple weak? Another example, imagine you buy your shinny M4 weapon, lets say thunder who has been always powerful, since ever. Even tho, having only one weapon M3 or superior put you in a hard place. What do you do if everybody starts using emerald? This happened before, like a year ago, when thunder was too over-powered. To the OP, M4 weapon it does make the difference, don't get me wrong, but not at the cost of not having anything else. M4 hull is another history, is better have one hull M4 than two M3. These days have only M3 without MU's is hard at gens battles.
  18. If they want, they could show that info easily, that's a mandatory field they have saved in the game's database
  19. This is something should be included in some kind of resumee of each player inside the game itself, not the forum. I've wondered myself a couple of times exactly when i registered in the game. Registration date from forum/game can differ by months, if not years. Some of us are from the time when link an email to the tanki acc wasn't that easy, natural or rewarded.

    Join the experiment with crystal drops

    I know what you meant, i was a low rank once, years ago. And also know that not everyboody have the talent/patience to upgrade the stuff. Besides, TO is rigged, if you commited to a weapon who is fantastic now, they make an upgrade and screw it(ex: rico, most recently, freeze). That's why i stated it should be some kind of reward easily attainable. But you can't have a game with 80% of the people camping and farming, because this became some ****ty facebook game and then real players(the moyority of hardcore buyers) will leave. The old 10 crystals boxes is a good middle point between the low ranks/noobs and high ranks/real players. It's perfect? No it is not, but for now, until they figure it out something better, is the best approach.

    Well, you know they can make it permanent, right? It's only a week for now, but if everybody likes it, we will move on like it is now. Anyway they won't keep it like this.

    Join the experiment with crystal drops

    At first sight, i thought this update was crap but in the last couple of days i played more serious battles than the whole last week. Honestly, this makes the game better. I see a constant, almost all low ranks don't like the update because it's way easier just go to high ranks battle and farm than play in their own ranks. But for the high ranks (the one's who really played up to the top, not bought the acc in FB etc) is great! Anyway, i recognize that i have several combos M3 MU'eds so i only play for joy, not crystals. Tanki, you will have to find a way to recompense the players without waiting until the end of the battle, honestly, a lot of players simply suck, they don't have any motivation to stay in the game because even if their team win, their rewards would be minuscule. Final thought, don't bring back 100 crystals boxes!!! Even real players got sucked in the "farm mode"
  23. Hazel, i don't see any changes in the isida parameters, which means, it's not changed at all. We all know how hard is to kill fully upgraded isidas, the only weapon we had was the freezes, but if the isidas now can remove the freeze/firebird effects, that makes the weapon unstopable. We will see swarms of isidas charging forward and no way to stop them. You made firebird completely useless without the after burn and took away the best feature of freeze. I don't see this one like a good update, soon you will have to "tweak" isidas or remove that "cure all effects" that has now.
