I think its random...I have yet to see any data to support any of them being better. Random is hard for ppl to grasp, as in small amounts it doesnt seem random
-
This is objectively false, unless maybe your game is bugged...I'd suggest recording a short vid and posting it here and then we will be convinced. Much respect tho, for using a nontypical hull as your main
-
What...none of those things are true. Mammy has the same health as titan. Not sure we are referring to the same hull. I dont think even m4 thunder can 2 shot an m4 wasp. Smoky probably takes 3-4 hits on wasp...so maybe 6-7 on mammoth/titan
-
All of these make me want to use mammoth more. I love using lesser used hulls. Count me in
-
Ok guys lets just get this out of the way: I am big noob, ok? Not related to conversation, just figured youd want to know
-
This turret...twins users are By FAR the most likely to stop the game objective to chase me around an object, while holding space of course, or to follow me after I spawn. Sooo many times Ive gone around and around and around a piece of terrain with the twins following...like "Alright were gonna do this all night if you want".
-
Cant tell what the arguments are that are flowing around. I love that a light hull got some love but hornets OD has become oppressive imo. I wish they could put it into a better place like hunters is...i love where hunter is. That being said, im at legend rank and most of what I see is vikings...I get a bit salty when I see viks dominating bc its essentially the do it all hull, its almost as fast as a light hull and has more than enough armor to go toe to toe with anything else. tldr: Slow down hornets OD or dont ignore armor, and lower viking hp by a bit, and you will see other hulls be played more.
-
Battles are so short, so theres not much purpose in winning vs losing (one reason I enjoy longer battles). I play to blow up tanks, so thats my favorite part, hence playing defense around the flag fills that role. However, I would say theres a difference between aiming to kill lots of tank and foregoing the objective to do so.
-
Welp I can explain some of this. First, you are Shaft Titan...of course shaft titans get good k/ds....they also rarely play the objective. Most that I see find a corner to hide in and are basically ignored by the enemy. I enjoy shaft/heavy but I do with LCs and hang around the base defending...that will rarely lead to good k/ds as you are facing the teeth of the enemy. Second, you are a gismo with 350,000 supplies used, inclusing 40k batts almost Nothing wrong with that at all, but it will explain why you get good k/d. Shaft as a hide and snipe turret can get good k/d, but I love it as a...well more mobile sniper. I'd rather contribute more to my team that getting a good k/d, which I do sometimes as well. If my team is mostly being noob, I will just play TDM. I play it will wasp a lot, not because its the best...its not, but it always feels good to dominate with the weakest hull in the game
-
jeez Vulcans are everywhere in my battles. It is cool to see it used a bit more, but that noise gets annoying quickly

What Is Your Opinion About the Current State of Tanki Online?
Potdindy replied to Maf in Game Discussion
What? I'm literally looking at it right now...really cool actually. Yes I'd love them to fix balance problems and such but if they wont do that, a nice spinny garage will maybe give the game a better initial impression for new players -
And partly because it will probably be OP for a while, meaning we will be fighting an uphill battle against it unless we purchase it ourselves. I'd love to just keep the hulls we have
-
Id like there to be a reason to use mammoth. Yes it can do things better than titan, such as its better vs a freeze after getting huntered. But it still dies to ranged weapons which most ppl use. I like it, but titan is definitely the ruling heavy
-
If its relevant Ive been seeing to nonburn alt from fires, and it is deeeadly. You dont die from burning, you die from them killing you with damage

What Is Your Opinion About the Current State of Tanki Online?
Potdindy replied to Maf in Game Discussion
These are very good observations and many would agree with you, I think. I also think there are a bunch of other things that will come to you in time that are legitimate problems that get ignored. These are....wat? Bushes is something you are complaining about? ? I'm laughing...I 100% understand foliage getting in the way, but I think thats what it is supposed to do...restrict vision. I dont spawn kill nor do I typically get spawn killed so that update seems fine. It only is a problem if you are intentionally hunting down newly spawned tanks. As for alterations, you want more things to have to pay for? I think the TO devs might want to hire you. jk, but maybe you can elaborate on this point? This whole sentence is just...bad. Care to share your evidence that players dont have skill? Also be careful when namecalling ppl...you will tend to have ppl tune you out. Once someone uses the word "drugger" or "buyer" i rarely engage...they arent typically worth the time. -
Which is weird...those two have the best OD's for siege I'd say, with maybe titan being close. And yet in most siege battles, the majority of players I see use viking, which have no effect on the dome, and thus the team with, say, an isida/titan/nanobot, or dictators, will dominate completely.
-
Both are feel bad overdrives. However, hunters OD was a lot more powerful early on until it got nerfed. Now I love where its at...very strong but not oppressive. There was a period I was considering taking a long break from tanki due to getting huntered 3+ times a game. There was no agency there. My enemies chose to press shift close to me and i died. I believe the worse was I got huntered 3x in like a minute. Die, spawn die, spawn and die. Hornets Od is too powerful and yes with mag especially does take a lot of fun from the game, and like hinter, removes player decisions. I might have armor and protection but if the mag looks at me, im dead. Nothing I can do.
-
Currently fire has an alt that deals waaay more damage than freeze. Im fine with that, I think, but freeze lost its ability. Slowing a hull down isnt an ability i care about. I want to stop their turret.

Do some players really think some outcomes from drones are cheats?
Potdindy replied to Alklines in Archive
Id say the difference is that I dont mind so much if someone is hard to kill. I mind much more if they are one shotting me thru protection and armor. Defender drone is nice but remember, even without the drone, if my health is lowered to zero, my tank reappears with full health so dying is like a free repair kit. Booster alone can overwhelm even a good player. Imagine being big noob like me and its even worse -
So is gauss/mag hornet not the siege killer any more? Every game ive seen from a gauss hornets perspective, the player gets 4x-5x kills regularly. Idk how you counter that.

Unpopular opinion: PRO battle players are more successful than "star grinders"
Potdindy replied to Towns in Archive
I play MM for grinding resources and probattles for larger more engaging battles. I suppose that if I ever have a full m4 garage (yeah right in my deams lol) I might stop with MM and stick to pro battles...theyre more fun overall -
Still so many without protections - Poorly managed update
Potdindy replied to BigBigBalls in Archive
to be fair, if you could dominate with twins wasp, youd have my admiration....its probably the worst combo ? -
Unpopular opinion: PRO battle players are more successful than "star grinders"
Potdindy replied to Towns in Archive
As I've been playing the occassional pro battle lately, I've got to say that removing overdrives reeeeaally improves the game. Overdrives remove a huge portion of the choices a player makes. "You just juked the defense and grabbed the flag? Well suck it, a random hunter will overdrive you". "You have a nice defense set up? Well suck it, a hornet magnum will 1 shot all of you". But alas, its the only way to get crystals -
What Is Your Opinion About the Current State of Tanki Online?
Potdindy replied to Maf in Game Discussion
Post again, but make some good argument why you are closer to hate. I understand where you are, as I'm at over 2 years myself, but smoky doing less damage at range is not a convincing argument to dislike a game ? I'm sure you have better ones -
Have you met our tanki devs? I really enjoy the game but have to admit most updates are neither needed or wanted by most ppl i talk to and are a negative to the experience.
