That's the module you should buy then. BadgerT-F

For Polygon, Red Alert & Iran, you are better off with Hammer or possibly Isida. Those maps have cover and relatively close range. Smoky useful in Parma and Esplanade, and to some extent Polygon. It loses out to short range weapons though in Polygon.

They don't even hide anymore. Slap on a DA on a medium hull - they use it basically as a direct-fire weapon instead of artillery. Seen them fire point-blank at Flag defenders, destroy two or three, survive the splash and make off with the flag while popping an RK. It's so ridiculous it's funny.

^^ This - 100%. In long run, creating my own battles or searching for more appropriate battles will save me time & create a far more enjoyable experience.

But - it depends on how that "twice as fast" is implemented... Is it... twice as many instances? A tank is killed, funds added twice (10 crystals + 10 crystals). = two "instances" OR Is it... Funds per action (tank killed, etc) are doubled (instead of 10 crystals added it is 20 crystals)? = one "instance". First example would create more chances for Gold. Second example not. Both examples increase the Funds "twice as fast".

Oh my. You should try Viking. After using Hunter, Viking will feel like you're drifting in one of those Fast & Furious movies...

And yet - it seems like those who like to customize (at least some parts of their games) are given the shaft. More and more the normal battles with supplies are being pushed, at the expense of those who like Pro-Battles. many of the changes (the largest one being no missions) are at our expense. And the Special days - DBF - never for Pro-battles. So don't try to pretend all are being treated equally. What has Tanki done recently to cater to Pro-battles?

For many "Standard" battles are not as fun because of the heavy use of supplies. In what way will the System account for this?

Small amount? Seemed closer to 50/50 before the last update that "encouraged" tankers to play Regular battles. And by "encouraged" I mean they used a Stick instead of a Carrot.

Is Sandbox a battle button map? What are the current limits on that? Would seem very crowded with 10 vs 10. I can see it now : 3 of the 10 tanks are a Titan-Twins sitting on Flag, flanked by two Titan-Isidas. Good luck wasps. :D

All maps will be 10 vs 10? :o :unsure: :wacko: :blink: So we'll never see Island? Even Sandbox with 20 tanks will be ridiculous. And Noise? They gonna make that bigger? Because it can be crowded enough with 6 or 7 tanks for Blue as it is...

Your two responses here kind of contradict each other... 1) dont focus on RK 2) RK is great (this actually supports my argument) The thing is dying is the problem. If you die, you lose all the power-ups enabled, lose time as you respawn and lose out on a kill you might have been about to make, but now someone else will benefit from. Opposite also true - each time you are about to make a kill they use a RK. If they have a large stash of those it becomes very, very difficult to kill them. I can't trade off RK each time opponent uses. I will have none left quickly. The way supply-mode is played is so much less enjoyable for me. We're are not going to agree on this

1) 10 hrs? hardly. The RKs will deplete much faster than the other supplies. Without RKs the rest does not matter. Maybe you are luckier than me and get lots as rewards? 2) We agree 3) Wiki says 2000 hp / sec for 2 seconds so that would be... "a couple seconds" repairing. then... you need to wait to use it again.

Does that same shop offer races with prizes? And those that buy the super car on sale win the most prizes? If no to above your analogy falls short. quite short. Here's the crux. You're free to but all the supplies you want, at whatever sale price you want. I really don't care. I like to play Pro-Battles no-supplies, so I don't have to compete with you - since it would be futile because $ are giving you an advantage. But... With all the rule-changes the Devs are driving all of us away from Pro-Battles in order to keep daily mission chains alive. We get a lot less of an ROI on buying a Pro-Pass now, would you not agree? So eventually it will come down to us abandoning mission chains and normal battles. Maybe you support that - no "weak" team-mates. I have a suspicion though some will not like that - less cannon fodder to pad their stats with.

IF you have sufficient supplies you might live longer. My ratio of RK to any other supply is 1:5 (basically the mission reward ratio) and buyers of large supply kits have closer to a 1:1 ratio so - can't compete on that. Even then - RK lasts a couple seconds. The you have a time-out, during which all the opponents sporting DD will waste you. I don't begrudge if players like that style and want to play others of like mind in competitive battles. Unfortunately forcing ALL players into same mould is not a good way to go - ends up with a lot of unbalanced battles.

They've always wanted you to buy supplies.... .... .... FROM THE SHOP with ... ... $$$

See my post above from May 17th...

Yeah, they keep "dumbing-it-down". Just push a button and play. Great - for 10-year-olds. Some of us like specific maps and games that are not just 15 min long. And maybe team-sizes that don't completely fill a map.

cost? I thought each next step costs more than the one before. So less ROI. Eventually goal would be to fully MU - but - that would be after most other stock equip you want is already purchased. having options and min 35% protection can be more beneficial than 15 more points of damage per shot for example.

With the frequency of changes the Devs implement, unfortunately, by the time you have the funds - the specific advice we give now could be waaaaaay out of date. In general, you will want at least two M2 turrets and at least one M2 hull (preferably medium = flexible) before getting M3 stuff. Having a second M2 hull would be useful (if you can afford it and still be on track to buy M3 at early unlock).

Maybe not interesting to you - but as by the many postings, no-supplies is interesting to many. What's wrong about using supplies? I find it boring. Tanks get destroyed so fast there's less time for strategy. You don't live long enough to execute plans. So we have opposite opinions - neither is right or wrong. And that's why removing choice will be a mistake.

What was wrong with letting those who want to use supplies follow "Normal battle" stream and those who want to not use supplies follow the PRO-Battle stream? Tanki is killing the game. Don't be surprised if there's a mass exodus if the above happens. It's just ridiculous.

medic is a pretty decent Kit to get at M3 - nice medium hull and Isida is now decent at getting kills. You used to be able to get a discount on the price of a kit if you MU-ed the lower version of an item all the way to what kit offers. not sure if that still in effect. In any event, even if you stick with Isida for M2 and then M3, you may want another M2 turret - one with some range. else you will be limited in your role on many maps. And if opponents have isida protection module you will be in trouble.

I wasn't suggesting it was. That's why i was using quotes ;) . And yet Devs mess up entire system for many people because of this. I really think they had complaints form buyers, who want more people in Normal battles to wreck. And look what is happening now...
