Exotic has a 0.5% chance of happening.

There is no such mechanism. I've opened 15,000+ free-to-obtain ultra containers since the container update in January 2022. My drop rate since then is still close to the stated drop rates of the devs. Do you mean to say that if all of those UCs were purchased instead, I would have gotten more Legendaries and Exotics?

You may get them in special bundles during events, or you may get them as prizes during events. The Ultra Weekend event that is starting in a few hours will have the Freeze module for sale for 3,990 Tankoins.

Extra armour does not have the same outcome as extra damage.

Interaction changes updated. The main thing is Striker, Thunder and Large Calibre Rounds Railgun will be much more efficient against light hulls. https://en.tankiforum.com/topic/394787-booster-drone-interaction-changes/?do=findComment&comment=6999576

Yeah I was specifically talking about Matchmaking, which tbf is what the game has been tailored towards in the past 5 years. I have no idea how it is for PRO battles so I can see why you'd be upset with that.

Well this is an interesting viewpoint. I don't see it as cheating, I see it more as expanding on your options in battles by using your tools in creative ways. The main reason I don't see it as cheating is because self-destructing has you dead. When you're dead, you can't influence anything occuring on the battlefield until you materialise again 9 seconds later. It's often a choice between staying alive and injuring or finishing off players around me or far away depending on my equipment, or to self-destruct and hope that my spawn position is favourable and the enemies that are on that section of map near my spawn location don't counter me or shrug off my attacks. Sometimes it works out, sometimes it doesn't. Next there is self-destructing as it pertains to the game mode. In TDM, if there is an unwinnable engagement that you have an idea when it will end and the scores of both teams are close, it is better to self-destruct than to let the enemy get the kill. Giving them the kill would give them overdrive charge. Also if your team has a dedicated healing Isida that has very few, if not 0 kills, then it would be beneficial to self-destruct in times you're confident you'll die soon, rather than giving the kill. In TDM, self-destructing deducts a point for every kill up to the maximum of how many you have at that point of the battle. An Isida with 0 kills can afford to self-destruct as many times as it wants because it does not have any kills for the system to deduct In Rugby it just helps you get back to square one after your team scores a goal so you can prepare for when the next ball spawn point is rushed. In Assault, for the attacking team to have their best chances of winning, the dedicated flag capturers must self-destruct to deny the enemy team points. There have been so many battles nearly won because I or others were doing it and many battles lost because it wasn't being done enough or at all. in Juggernaut, killing and assisting a Jug kill gives a lot of score. Leaving the battle just before dying (if you were frustrated) or self-destructing in an unwinnable situation has the same effect as dying to an enemy but you don't give one or many enemies a big chunk of OD charge. That big chunk of charge can start a positive feedback loop for the strongest enemies and accelerate your defeat. I cannot 100% confirm this but I remember many years ago it was said somewhere that your spawn position in CP was determined by what points your team had captured at the time of your death (this was changed to teams having fixed spawn positions regardless of points captured a while ago), and that in Siege, it would try to spawn you relatively far away from the active or next active point. When I play Siege, I passively test this in big maps and it comes out right more than 50% of the time. If I had to rearpull a number it would be between 60-70% accurate. I can use that to my advantage sometimes and get to the point just as it comes up to get some early progress. But I imagine it would mostly be useful in a group with comms to tell your mates which point it might be to get there early. Then there's the fact that the battle experience has changed over the years. The TTK is much lower than years ago. Battles are longer. Status effects run rampant. Players get more battle score than before. Stars in battles no longer rely on whether your team wins or not and it is easier to get 2 or 3 stars than before. For some players -10 battle score isn't a big deal anymore because the environment around them changed to make it a viable strategy. If I were to blame anything, it would be the 'Be on the winning team of X battles' missions they're constantly pushing on us. People are more geared towards winning. You either ride the wave of success immediately/eventually, or you end up like players that come in here complaining about going 10+ battles without a single win when Ultra Containers and stars were on the line. There's also self-destructing for the benefit of the player's drones but I use Hyperion mostly so I have less of a reason to self-destruct for supply uptime.

Every turret except Gauss has 3 unique augments in the garage.

For those complaining about Hydra being too OP, what do you think about removing the vertical auto-aim during the salvo? Mobile currently doesn't have this (neither does it have horizontal auto-aim).

The existence of the Broadband Radiators augment makes it obvious that this is intended for Isida.

ALL of them can't anymore. As I said previously, they need high speed to counter it depending on how high they jump from.

This hasn't been true for over 17 months. Hover hulls bend towards the ground when going off cliffs and can flip, especially Paladin and Hopper who only have one engine and start twisting to the side halfway through. You counter either by driving off of the cliff a certain way (usually means you have to fully commit to the jump and land before attacking enemies) or else you'll fail and flip, or by using Trickster/Crisis where the extra speed delays the start of the bending and twisting, just like with tracked hulls. Or a combination of both if necessary. This lack of stability in the air means they'll be self-destructing some times during every battle unless they're camping or something. And that is my assumption about hovering hulls. I want to believe that they get more score or more things done than tracked hulls on average but is "offset" by the inevitable self-destructions they have. They don't tell us anything about the balance between hover hulls and tracked hulls so we can only assume. I'd mention mobile players height affected by obnoxiously heightened impact force from popular turrets but I suppose only a subset of players are affected by that.

Can you record a video or take a screenshot or something? This description doesn't tell me anything concrete. It doesn't say which one of you was where on the bridge. I was not aware there was a popular map in MM. Send a screenshot of the map or go to the Wiki and send the link to the map so I can understand better. In the meantime, downward auto-aim angle is bigger than the upward auto-aim angle so what you described there can happen but I need more context.

Can you explain this one?

Manual activation of boosted armour supply: Hyperion: 1 + 2 Defender: 1 + 4 Supply drop box activation: Hyperion: 0 Defender: 4 Nothing happens to Hyperion when you are inflicted with Jammer.

It consumes 2 additional supplies when manually activated. So you will use 1 + 2. Picking up a supply from a drop box does not consume anything. The drone itself is immune to Jammer, not your hull. Think of it like Hyperion's effects are baked into the drone by default so there is nothing for Jammer to do against it, same for Brutus. Booster, Defender, Trickster, Mechanic and Saboteur require a condition to be met to activate the drone to receive the effects and is then put on a cooldown. Jammer basically forces the drone to be on a cooldown equal to the Jammer duration.

You're being overdramatic.

There's nothing to feel sorry for about that considering those who collected the ToA were granted a sponsored entry into the event, an entry many players may have thought against had they not gotten 3,000+ Tankoins given to them.

You seemed to have just gotten unlucky. I played with it earlier and it was getting crits like normal.

They did not mention a decrease in the number of normal containers you get. Only ultra containers and presumably weekly containers. Wait until it is close to being implemented so we'll have more information about it.

The template was slowly being applied to every turret throughout the past months. All turrets have it now. The only one that differs is Terminator (Juggernaut turret), which is currently: Maximum: 15% Initial: 5% Minimum: 0% Step: 5%

That is an issue with mobile in particular. Mobile players receive heightened impact force from Smoky, Railgun, Hammer and Terminator. Tracked hulls would get flipped regardless of weight which is why hover hulls are mandatory for it now. Instead of being flipped on flat ground, your hover hull will instead quickly jerk to the left or right. It will supposedly be fixed when mobile is converted to HTML5.

Looking at the RU Forum, it appears to be for Anvil Shells, yes.
