I had a heated discussion with another user in the past about it. In my opinion both stats are interesting, not just one. But it would be impossible for a private user to find out the highest user of the week checking all Tanki Online users. Of course the usage per hour can be calculated on the users of this list. Unfortunately I have no programming background, so it is already hard to keep up with this list. There is a third stat which I would love: crystals per supply. But profiles do not show all supplies used from the beginning, so the numbers will be "imperfect".

In my opinion one should still make Daily Mission especially now with the higher reward. And that takes some time. Am I going to have so much time to play additional battles in PRO afterward? That is the doubt... No matter what, those standard battles will be piss poor... Not long ago Hazel-Ra in one of those "interviews (or monologues)" confirmed that drugs are a serious problem and their income does not justify the damage they made (probably referring to the decrease of users, but not directly mentioned it). But for some unknown-to-us never-explained inside reason... kept ongoing... It should not be a possibility, but a normal thing for all...

1) Totally agree. Unfortunately Devs' choice to increase drug usage called for a decrease in average age. The attitude you mentioned is typically juvenile. And kids get bored easily... leaving the game soon... 2) Well explained. The Super Mario feeling is caused by finding tanks so much weaker (400%) and so much slower (actually more than 130% because being drugged you can afford to use the fast wasp), so that one feels a great player in killing one after the other. So: A) skills are forgotten as it is so easy to go on a straight line, just remove obstacles and regenerate health; B) drugs and skills will go together only when all players will have access to the same amount of drugs. Then people will be forced to train intelligence, which is what kids find "boring". Like in real life: most drugs will enhance body results, but will hinder brain functions. You are strong, you go for brutal force. You are weak, all you got is your brain.

Suddenly lost connection with #21 SGSDFNFNCBCXFBF (that was user's name...). Not sure if overdose or what else, but should anyone have news, kindly share. Of course we all are very deeply sad when one of the big benefactors of the game disappears... but well, surely another will take that place.

I fully agree there and wondering myself what the heck I am still doing here... Guess I will go Pro Battles soon, just to breathe a better air for some time...

Of course one can manage "somehow". I always managed to get all missions without drugs (and again, I got 34,000 in 15 months). But I believe that, like in most other games, money should not influence "the real game". Money should give you new paints, new designs, statistics, videos, a VIP area, private tournaments, possibility to watch other battles, whatever other type of "cosmetics", but not interfere with "the real game". Let skills prevail.

I was pretty much involved In the topic you mentioned (Reduce power supplies) and therefore called "crybaby" by druggers. "This Summer I get 1092 supplies each week": Summer did not start yet... I guess you are referring to the NEW (meaning that till now, whatever you write was not possible) reward offered by Druggin' Online, which frankly I already cashed in once without checking the amounts (except for the 14,000 crystals). Assuming that 1092 drugs per week is right, you say 54 battles per week at 20 drugs per battle. Math is correct, but 20 drugs per battle is nowadays a VERY LOW number compared to the average drugger. 1.3 drugs per minute is almost HALF than what top druggers do. It basically means to have only one between DD and DA on, while the other tank has both. Cutting in half what is wrong, does not make it right...

Once again, there is an ARMY of KIDS in this game, who has still to go through elementary Math at school. The usual "you can compete with buyers as long you do not play that much"... Do you have any idea how it is "that much"? Top druggers are using an average of 4,000 drugs per week. If I start to use what I got from Daily missions in 15 months, I will be able to compete for 8 days! Dear @TheBlackChick with your 21,000 drugs, you could compete for 5 days!!! All the rest is just bla bla bla... This is not "crying", this is Math!

It has always been difficult to keep up a conversation with kids and generally we (grown ups) end it saying: "sure, kid. You are very skilled. The most skilled ever. Just do not ask mom for more money, because you cannot press a button and have more..." But then the kid still asks: "Why? Have you tried 6? Mom, I can ask Cedric to talk with Hazel-Rah"...

Tell that to your parents and show us a video with their reaction...

Are you reading what you write? It is a loop... 1) you said fun is to have more drugs 2) you have very little drugs 3) then you ask how I know if you have fun Are you writing for Cinderella News?

Then with your 23,000 drugs you are not having that much fun in this game. Sorry...

One day someone like you (who I believe to be considerably older and wiser than the average user here) will explain me the concept of boring and slow... In a drugging game the winning team is the one who over drugged the other, like most battles right now. Without drugs, it is all about skills and skills only. So the fun is... having more drugs than the other?

If your solution is to look away and give up, I am not your man. I despise stupidity and I will keep pointing it out.

There is nothing wrong to be a kid. But kids obviously think like kids LOL Check the ongoing Topic "Tell us your cool idea...": it seems like a kindergarten script. Kids want gold, want to kill everyone for as long as possible, want to be immortal... :wacko: You will get my point in 15 years from now ;)

Why do not you play standard battles that much? How can you get supplies if you do not do Daily Missions? Finally you admitted to be another kid :D

I am afraid we will remain in our different views. You used 21,000 drugs. Top 200 used between 220,000 and 1 Million drugs. And they play together. Why don't you use their same amount? Don't tell me you do not have 14 Euro (or 20 Dollars) a week to spend? I just like to think that you are smarter than those kids and that is why you do not waste money that way.

Right... :P

In the Middle Age the Feudal Lord had the Droit du seigneur, also known as Jus Primae Noctis. It was a rule, still applied in Zaire: be aware if you intend to marry there and stick to the rules... "the players goal is to get more of these power-ups". You mean, the goal is to find a credit card that works. "instead of improving the way he actually plays in order to perform better". So 12345 12345 12345 is their idea of fun. The dumbest thing is when they say, at the end, check my score: 585 crystals! (But the forgot they wasted 1312 crystals in drugs. Ah math these days...).

Again, real life. Don't you blame the junkie? Do you just blame the cartel, the parents, the government and the fate? By the way, an M0 drugged has the power of an M4 (plus the additional health...), not an M2...

It should ERASE all others drugs for 40 seconds !!! Then you can call it ZERO SUPPLY :P

Same thing than you using drugs then... LOL

The wild use of drugs brought us to this level... @Maf idea in the first page nails it, but he also answers himself with reality... :(

Let's not make confusion here. What you say above might be ok. The main question is about the 12345 over and over that so many users are adopting as only way to play. Not only, they get together (either clan or just occasionally) and you get 8 players out of 10 in one team 12345 12345 12345 while on the other there might be one or two. What is the fun in knowing you are buying your victory? Furthermore: if you do not have other ways to use crystals, it means you already have all turrets, all hulls, all modules. Unless you are a very old player (meaning playing since... 2012) how did you get them? Finally you say that a 10 years old has fun using drugs so that he can kill others and feel "superior". Well, he is taking away the fun from the other one who is running around his tank, clearly a better player, but... the health box kicks in again... grrrr.....

Rationally yes. 1 drug nominally costs 35 crystals. Can you make them with one drug? It only makes sense that one time you really need that one flag... But then what about the so many using 3 drugs, then 1 health and 3 drugs again to get a flag? 245 crystals and most probably they still do not get the flag because either they get killed by other druggers or it is a team mate depositing it. Like drugs in real life: sellers make money, buyers feel good, right? Try telling a junkie that it is just a fake temporary feeling which will have harsher consequences...
