  1. There are many OPM video you can look at to get inspired. You will have to sort them as not all of them can be done in MM because of self-destruct zone. You better train in parkour mode before pulling them in MM. The best is to join a parkour club (shared experience and knowledge). Video examples:

    All overdrive are OP, that is by design. The purpose of them is do disrupt the course of the battle, even if you have poor equipment. A strong mechanics available only after working hard to charge it.

    Terminator turret and railgun turret are very very very different equipment. The Juggernaut railgun mechanics is a beast in power (can one shoot ligh and medium hulls), strength (100% percing), number (2 guns mounted on it) and not protection module against it. That the worse comparison you could make.

    Maxed Mued firebird/freeze module @ 50% would in theory remove 50% of the after-burn/freez effect and that is possible only when you reach Marshal. Now it seems that one Hull Alteration (HA) does 50% and another one does 100%. This 2 HA are now randomised among 8 HA (and many paints) and were available only for 3 days for one hull with one chance out of 100 to get it from Ultra kit. So these 2 HA will be very rare in the game, incredibly rarer than the number of Firebird/freeze protection module (PM) already on the market. This update has a massive impact and will result on more Firebired and Freez turrets to be bought and upgraded (that is probably one of the objectives of this update, after creating a new resources of revenue), it will also mean more death, even if player are buying more protection module they will find out that this is really not the same deal, a 50% protection for thunder actually protect 50%. While 50% now do not count for 50%, I believe the equivalency would be around 40%. So it doesn't make sense to rush and buy Firebird/freeze PM. It is not a nuisance, if you had a firebird/freeze MP, I can tell you it is night and day, especially for light hulls. The EMP alteration for Gauss also reduce the effectiveness of the Gauss PM, when DD removed it is a straight loose of 50% of you HP- it is like having an mini instant Hornet OD/Hunter OD. But nobody had that protection before so it is not a backward move. Is TO so desperate to make revenue? Is it the swansong already? If TO nerf the after-burn and/or the freezing effect it will reduce the appeal of the Ultra container, I don's see why they would do that in there current logic/strategy. It is not a question should it be nerfed or not, but rather what would they do next, would it not be better to be able to buy it with crystals? F2P will play to earn more crystals, and buyers will buy crystals to get it. Please let the player make a strategic and informed choice to buy it and not let it be only driven by pure luck and money. I meet TO halfway and would even buy one HA for 50 Tankcoins if required. Let the ultra container be about the Ultra cosmetic and the hull alteration a premium (tankicoins) equipment. I won't use TK for paint or even the battle pass (500TK), I finnaly gave gave up on that one (15 days non stop playing for 100 Tk, hum, nah, I have about 192 TK, I can reach 500, with weekly container but to earn 1000 Stars is hard, especially for a random XT skin).

    Old Madness Map

    The anti-cheat was messing with tanks. If you jumped from the top and shoot twice during the fall you would self destructed 100% of the time. Plus the death ratio was terrible for nob players, but it was great a great map to learn how to jump. The other game was to try to land on the pillar. TO mad many v-log challenge on that map.
  8. Heated debate. Let me build on it, as a firebird, yes you can leave your prey burning, but it can still kills you. So when you evade, you still need skill to avoid further damage (even death). While with freeze, once your prey is immobilised then it is easy peasy. I don't want to leave you cold feet, so I will add the following: what require skills is Isida! You need more skill than with both firebird and freeze. There is no freeze effect and no after-burn that you can shoulder on.

    NEW Ultra Containers

    This also is not clear in the video. I agree, there is quite a lot of "beautiful" paint in these categories. It certainly was not a civilised move to do this. The beneficiary of this changes for the greater good balance are the buyers who own Firebird, Freeze and Gauss (certainly not Thunder or railgun as contextually explained in the v-log). I only play TJR nowadays. Next step is to sale armour plate, to fix around your tank (only in containers too). Front, right side, left side underneath, back, .... also can only fit one hull, so need to buy the other too. Oh, I can't wait. ?️

    And then lucky buyers will be able to smash you with any hull. Great plan. Please don't shoot the mod, he is just explaining the process which is his job. Thanks. Only if you have MK7. This was another tanki for the greater good rebalance thingy, in the hope to reduce the railgun occurrence at low ranks. It is not a bad thing to try to have equal number of turrets. Is that tiem about to increase Freez and firebird turret in the game?

    NEW Ultra Containers

    I was confused too. It turned out that the normal green containers are still in place from standard mission (weekly reward mission, challenges, and in game black gold box). These ultra containers can be bought during the special events or earned by doing the special event missions (max 12 in total this time). Also they would be droped in normal battle, what colour would it be black or? It does not replace the green container, it is just a new breed (with other type of big rewards / premium unique equipment and premium cosmetics) brewed to spice these events and catch a few more buyer-fish to help protect them against the "new" threat which are the EMP, freez effect and after-burn.

    Ideas for Turrets!

    Good luck with that. Tanki solution is simple, buy 500 Ultra container and with luck you get what was already existing. Bad luck, then buy more. Oh, by the way this is only for one hull, you will have to repeat that process with the 6/7 other hulls. At the moment only the lucky Hunter can protect themselves, for everybody else it is more death waiting for you at the corner. This is sheer Tanki logic about the greater good balance. Some contest ( from the v-log ) : all this was made because of the thunder protection, everybody has one so it is not fun to play with thunder. ?

    Alterations for Hulls

    How can they be useful if nobody can get them? And one they get one what are the odd to be the right one? Pretty useful for parkour, ok, what are the odd for a parkourist to actually get the one for the hull he has? There is a big flaw here. Why not being able to buy them with crystals or coins? Firebird and freeze, man the battlefield is hell, once you get burnt you are good as dead. I stupidly tried to use repair kit with firebird, but to no avail. While freez once you get caught you know you are sitting duck and wait to die. Before we could survive an encounter with both of them if you had protection module. TBH I don't even wear them as the outcome is the same. I don't know if this qualify to "broke the game", but it does have a huge impact n the game-play. It is not subtle changes. There is a certain logic here of what is a good game balance similar to the stock mastery update that made M2+ into MK7 (a gift to buyers, and a small reward to a few F2P who managed to spend crystals with the right strategy).
  15. Since when tanks flies? As a matter of fact it used to rain tanks on the Old Madness Map ?
  16. Nice short report. Yes optimising one combo is the way forward, it is bliss at the start, but at the end it is become difficult as other players catch-up, until you get enough money to buy another product kit (but it is not easy to get the kit anymore, check shop twice a day for 2-3 months). M2+ to MK7 is Tanki logic for good game balance or a gift to buyers, and for a few F2P like you who spent crystals in the right place. Probably not worth to MU anymore, but buying product kit only. If you buy a drone take one that do not consumer extra supplies (Brutus seems good).

    NEW Ultra Containers

    Wow, even more p2w feature. I can't imagine they will do that 8 times - 8 weekend with each different hull. All based on luck, no equipment strategy left for the player on that feature. With only doing special missions, during Discount Weekend - April 2020, the chance to get an alteration out of 12 of them is rather slim. Not especially nice news for something we already had in our protection module. It would have been a more player friendly option have only the Stun and EMP immune alteration only in the Ultra containers (at a higher chance), and keep the freez and heat resistance in the original protection module. Maybe have the immunity added. To create a need is fine, but not at the expense of player existing equipment. We don't play for crystals anymore, we play for lottery ticket to heaven (after our wings been cut off). We used to play for crystals => equipment => strategy => crystals Now play for special missions => ultra containers => hope and luck => but mostly disappointment => bye bye Something of worth has been lost along the way. The worth thing is that I did do the nice missions... did not see that many Hunter-Isida before in team Juggernaut (Mission: EMP + Mission: Heal my wounds! + Mission: Liquidator). The worse combo was isida-wasp (because of the Wasp mission), worse be cause they are the one helping with the Mine mission (Mission: Bomb disposal). I got out of 12 containers: Many supplies (speed boost x2, repair kit x2, DD) ~40k x (25k +...) 10 gb watermelon paint + potter paint (how I feel lucky)

    Fire bird and freeze are freaking potent, protection module against them are useless. Good grief, this is a roller coaster of unbalancing the game.

    Is that even possible to kill that many?

    I never move my turret only my tank

    It is already a widely spread tactic, even at legend rank. However, if you also turn your turret at the same time it is twice as fast, try it, you won't be disappointed.

    Episode 250 of the V-LOG is live!

    P2W come to me baby. There is no shred of strategy anymore. The fun of playing with thunder is gone because it a coconut sling now. Yeah! A new way to get more ugly paint.

    Does tanki online comes out for PS4.

    TO is too small, it will never happen.

    Alterations for Hulls

    I am confused, I opened the game today on the mobile and looked at the hunter, there is nothing there. The alteration box is empty with no option to buy alteration. What is going on?
