    Ideas for Turrets!

    I remember seeing Thunders die in those situations before.

    Let's Discuss Juggernaut

    Was having a bit of fun trolling some Juggernauts with Shock Freeze on the Test Server the other day. In this battle, I had spawned as the Juggernaut and made a good amount of kills on a small number of enemies. While I was trying to evade a Viking Isida that was chasing me, I had a feeling that I would end up in the ditch. I ditched that feeling because I was just about to finish locking onto the Viking Isida. I ended up falling into the ditch. The rest follows: This is a pretty weird glitch and it's a good thing it was on the Test Server. If it happened on the real servers, then the average players might not care enough to query as to where the Juggernaut is. They would just play the battle like it's a DM...which is EXACTLY the way it's supposed to be played.

    February Challenge — Railgun LGC Skin

    Conspiracy Theory! What if, now hear me out here, what if...Tanki decreased the number of containers we could earn from missions just so we would have a lesser chance of obtaining premium from the containers to complete the challenge easier?

    Let's Discuss Isida!

    Sometimes I wonder what my Tanki experience on this account would have been like if I hadn't had bought M2 Isida. I may have kept using Smoky and maybe I might have bought Ricochet M2 earlier or M2 Freeze. Isida changed my entire experience and the way I look at other tankers in the game and I'm thankful for that.

    Let's Discuss Isida!

    Oh, that. Yes, I've been trying to slowly bring it back up to about 1.60. I don't want it to go below 1.50. When you checked my profile, you would have seen that I had a lot of EXP and hours with Smoky and Viking. Smoky was the foundation for this account because I spent all my crystals upgrading it after I bought the "Striker Kit" (Smoky M! + Viking M1) at a point in time when I was at Sergeant-Major I think. I wanted the Blizzard Kit back then but the price had suddenly hiked so I couldn't afford it anymore. It was either the Striker Kit, or the Harvester Kit (Vulcan M1 and Titan M1) and I chose the Striker Kit. This, also, was back when the number of steps for micro-upgrades was 50 and you would be paying 2x the amount on all the steps than the price of the next modification. I invested a lot of crystals into Smoky and it paid off with me having high K/Ds in a lot of my battles. The only thing that set me back was the PRO battles with upgrades disabled. When I was at 2nd Lieutenant, I had bought Isida M2 just so I could have a supportive turret (I like defending and supporting) and a suppressive turret. I loved playing with it back then more than I did before on other accounts before this one. Using it more though made into a selfless player, risking my life so my allies could cap the last flag. This is what brought my K/D down a lot. I had a K/D of more than 5 at a point in time. After I had purchased Isida, I started using Smoky less and less then the K/D dropped to 3. At this point, I was at the rank of Major or Lieutenant Colonel and M2 Smoky was right around the corner. Thanks to the MU update that reduced the steps to 10, I had SMoky at 9/10 so I didn't need to spend crystals on it right away so I kept playing Isida and loving its supportive capabilities. I was able to keep a, in my opinion, good K/d with the old Isida but the nerf forced me to play with Support Nanobots because I prefer healing over damaging. Enemies come onto me and I barely have damage to defend myself properly so my K/D in team battles now suffer because of this. I play with Striker, Magnum and in rare cases, Hammer in DMs to bring back up my K/D now.

    Let's Discuss Railgun!

    It's common in the Caribbean to say "the" like "d" or "de". We just can't help it because if we try hard to speak Standard English, it may sound weird and it wouldn't roll off the tongue properly. Maybe the guy is from the Caribbean. I'm pretty sure that would be vocabulary and not grammar. Also, why are you replying to a post made in the middle of 2013?

    Don't mind him. He's probably one of the players who jump to the "next big thing" then salt when it gets nerfed. We need fewer players like him in the game but they contribute to the lifespan of the game so we can't do anything about it.
  9. This will help us gain their trust for future updates because it'll show that they're being transparent about stuff like this. We currently can't prove that MM matches groups with groups every time. This would help us prove it and thus they will earn more trust from their playerbase. Not necessarily.

    Important changes to the game

    You can one-shot all M0 medium hulls as well with M2 Smoky's Critical hit with DD. You can also one-shot M1 and M2 light hulls except for M2 Wasp.

    Let's Discuss Ricochet!

    What do you mean "good for me"? Nothing I said in my post hinted of me having an advantage over medium-range turrets.
  12. TheCongoSpider

    Which turret drugs the most?

    I barely see Vulcans with all 3 supplies activated. I seldom see them use repair kits unless they're using the Incendiary Band alteration. It is possible to fill your health from almost depleted to full while overheating with Vulcan + any hull.

    Numbers

    Why should it be "easier"? It should require the same amount of skill and stress if not more than the Unaltered counterpart. I bet more than half of the Duplet users don't know that it "has 10% more DPM than Stock Hammer", they just know that "it does more damage". They just know that it gets them kills on almost every clip. They just know that everyone who uses it get high amounts of kills with it every battle. I still consider it OP because of the double shot not giving you time to react before you die. I won't say that it's better than Twins but it is still powerful. You get the honour of having my 500th post directed towards you. ._.

    Let's Discuss Firebird!

    Maybe not in the high ranks but in the mid-ranks, it's pretty OP, especially with Compact Tanks. With every turret, you run the risk of your kills getting stolen so that isn't a problem.

    I wanted to vote for Freeze 100 times.

    Let's Discuss Augments

    It took me hours to write this (partly due to me having to do other things while I was writing it) and it seems to have been forgotten so I'll put it here again in a spoiler so it wouldn't take up a big part of the page. These are my thoughts on the logic of the alterations and what changes should be made for some of them.

    Let's Discuss Isida!

    These are some good battles using the Support Nanobots alteration: The one thing that irritates me is that I often find myself in the proximity of enemies, alone. Many times, I played with Legends who had 50% protection against me and double armour and I was only doing 29 damage per tick. I can't really defend myself against enemies due to my decreased damage. I hate being almost defenceless but I don't like not healing my teammates either so I'll endure the hardship. Edit: This one one of the more worse games I had.

    We played a few MM battles together yesterday. I don't remember seeing you in any battles though.

    Speaking of v7.7, I checked his account yesterday and just as I suspected, he abandoned the account. Took more than 800 golds away from possible hard-working players just to ditch the account like it wasn't worth the 825 gold boxes it caught. People like him ruin experiences for normal players.

    Then it would look inconsistent with the medium hulls' and heavy hulls' M4 Health.

    Changes in battles & Massacre map

    At least blowouts don't last as long now. That's a plus. But then again, that can be a double-edged sword where the team being blown out has less time to reach the threshold for stars.

    The guy was probably playing all day. You'll see a lot of players like that completing the challenge in 5 days. I don't see an incentive to do this.

    Let's Discuss Product Kits

    They would buy it if more than half of the items, they don't have. Like for me, I was tired of waiting for good affordable kits in the shop so I was going to buy the one I could have afforded with that current kit rotation selection. I bought the BumbleBee kit. I looked at it and looked at what I already had before buying it. I already had the Hive paint but I don't really care about paints that much. I already had 30% Hammer protection. Buying the kit would have increased that to 35% protection which isn't much of an increase against a Hammer but it enabled me to upgrade it further. I didn't have Hammer or Hornet M3 so there was a plus. I had Hornet M2 so it was kind of tough to decide but I did it anyway. _____________________________________________________________________________________________________________________ If I were to buy kits, I'd look at what I already have from 3 parts available: Turret, Hull, Protection. The Paint doesn't matter to me. If I have the Turret and not the Hull and Protection Module, I'll buy it. If I have the Hull and not the Turret and Protection Module, there is a small chance I would not buy it. If I have the Protection Module and not the Turret and Hull, I'll buy it. A little more in-depth now: If I had the Turret and the Hull but not the Protection Module, I wouldn't buy it. If I had the Turret and Protection Module but not the Hull, I wouldn't buy it. If I had the Hull and Protection Module but not the turret, there is a small chance I would buy it. This is also influenced by what modification the turret and hull are before the potential purchase.

    Let's Discuss Isida!

    Ok, I can confirm this now. got killed while healing a guy. When I respawned, I healed a guy for two ticks of healing and my score went from 223 to 230 instantly. Why isn't this written in the EN Wiki? They have players thinking that they're losing all the exp gained from healing when they die while doing it.
