A better way to make players happy would be to atleast reduce the rank brackets. It is very frustrating to battle m3+ players with your m2s, and even more so when m1 noobs join your team, and refuse to leave the battle when we ask them.

Chill, you can always pretend this event never happened.

So that buyers have more moving targets than before.

If you want to see profile, send me a pm. I will show you Lt. General with only m0 turrets. I don't want to paste link in public forum, since I don't want to make fun of the person. Also, they are not mults. They try to win, I have played against them. Crystal mis-management may be an issue, but its harder to finish missions now, plus lower probability of getting crystals from missions, plus high ranked players are always present wherever you go. Tanki should atleast reduce rank brackets so that there is not much mismatch in equipment levels.

It may be a better strategy for those who have an alt account to get 250 kills from main and 250 from alt to get 6 golds from 500 kills, rather than make 700 kills for 5 golds. But I don't have an alt.....

Poor timing. January or June might have been better for this sort of contest.

I have seen Generals with m1s, so captains with m1s are fairly common (wither m1 hull or turret). m3 kits unlock at Lt. General, so rank brackets need to be reduced.

On http://en.tankiwiki.com/Format_Battles, it says Wasp M2 gets 10% protection against Railgun Hornet M2 gets 20% protection against Railgun Railgun M3 gets a special alteration that increases its damage and reduces its reloading time Wasp m2 is actually 12% and hornet m2 is 24%. Also, what are the statistics for the m3 alteration?

I estimate it is about 7 weeks.

They are complaining because this update comes along with the increased rank brackets, which now allow m4 vs m1.

Strikers and shafts were very annoying on bottom floor. I played space mode today madness ctf it wasn't that bad really. You just need to stay close to the flag carrier. Always a group of 4 or 5 tanks should go for flag. Again, its not that bad. Atleast in space mode.

Ever heard non-buyers usually stick to one combo and not spend to get a vast garage?

Completely agree mate. I'm saving for viking m3 kit, and there updates to hulls might just make it crap. Its too risky to buy stuff now. Actually I'm pretty sure they will nerf viking, because it sells a lot, more than other 2 medium hulls, and as a policy, they nerf whatever majority people buy. But when will this update come?

What we want to communicate to you about is revert the 2 missions updates.

Of course I know polygon isn't the only map, there's arena, island, ping-pong, noise etc. You asked for a reason why players don't join the rare maps, and I gave you an answer. If players don't have enough crystals for good equipment, then this game is worse than boring. I would say it is better to get bored in polygon cp than being slaughtered by players with better equipments and drugs. You are free to choose what you want.

Nobody sets the fairness, but you can sense when somebody in the enemy team is a chronic heavy drugger. They have like 200+ score in 5 minutes, while others are yet to cross 100. I tend to leave such battles when such a person is present in enemy team, no point in wasting my supplies to neutralize his supplies. Anyways, my idea of fairness is perfectly captured by xp/bp (no mults, and equal teams) - everyone has the same tank (wasp hornet not much difference), everyone has same turret, protections are same if all are m3 . In non-pro battles, there exist large differences in hull armour, turret damage, protection, supply usage. I can't give you a mathematical formula for a fairness statistic and a critical value, but m4 medium hull is 3000 protection, m2 is ~2200, same differences for turrets exist, and the difference become x2 if both use supplies, and explode if the weaker one does not drug. When these differences get large in teams, I call it unfair. Maybe you don't notice them because you have fun in battles with your m4 thunder m4 viking and protection modules, but as mid-rankers, we do feel it, when high-ranked people steam roll us.

When will the update on hulls come? Should I buy a new hull or wait? Wait for how long? They might nerf the hull I purchase...

Also, in polygon you can make ~500xp in 15 mintues if you play good, while in other original and uncommon maps it is more difficult to make xp and crystals. Now you're already m4 and you get crystals for your job as moderator, but other players need rank up and crystals, so they choose maps favourable to them.

Then create the battle yourself, and if it is peak time and other people also like the map, they will join. PS: Create ~30 minute battles, (without autofinish if you want), and don't cap flag if teams are unbalanced if you want more people to join. It usually takes time for people to join because if they've just joined a 15 minute battle, they won't be back in in the next 15 minutes. If other players don't like to join, then you could parkour alone or play elsewhere(I'm not a big fan of parkouring though). If your time zone differs from the Russians or Europeans, then I don't think you have much option except xp/bp or polygon no supplies.

You can always have more variety with the pro pass you know. People play in non-pro mostly for missions, or to use their fully MU'd stuff + drugs to rank up to legend in 3 months.

I meant rank up and battle with them. Also, it is not easy to find battles where your rank is highest. Usually when server restarts, the Marshal rank+ people click battle button first on each server, on each mode. Since I am major general, if I click battle button, I will be taken to the battle with them, since the battles are not full, and the brackets are bigger. I have been playing against m3+ players for this whole week now. And now they will get m4 easily, because of cheaper MU's.

There are so few players in no supplies PRO battles because those players left the game. Look through your friends list and you will see how many have left this game. Another one of my friends left this week. He was going at 70k xp per week. I also did 70k last week, and 60k before that, but this week still to hit 10k mark. Completing missions is very hard now against druggers.

I think you should never buy m2 kits. They contains useless paint, a module you don't need (you can reach Lt. General easily without module). It is not very difficult to rank up and get those m2 turrets and hulls in 50% or 40% off sales. Only m3 kits need to be purchased. Also, buy medium m2 hull, not heavy, or else flag missions will be difficult. And do not buy shaft m2. Choose one from rail, thunder, smoky. And then maybe get fire m2. Thats all you need. And a medium hull m2.

Well, I'd say you made a mistake buying all those m2's. Most people will have thunder protection by the time you get m3. MUing thunder viking seems to be the good plan, even though it is just damage control. You might want some protection from thunder too, so see if you can save for it. Get a triple module though.

Yes, most m2 polygon xp/bp players don't play the mode anymore. I too won't renew my pro pass when it expires, atleast for some time.
