It would seem that Vulcan is the one turret that is apart from the others in power level...I just dont see people use it or do well with it much

Omgosh guys...the "hack" is literally him just playing a video backwards...takes like zero thought to see that. Do we have any REAL evidence of cheaters?

Ah so less about reporting ppl. My misreading. Do wr have you tubers as popular as fortnite ones? The only vids I tend to see are goldbox montages and road to legend montages, which dont seem to compare to what Ive seen from other games youtubers.

So, is Vulcan relevant in the higher ranks? I've tried it a bit, but it just never feels strong

So thats what ppl want to report? Using different textures and letting a friend play on your account for the day? Why would anyone want to report something like that? Seems bad man

Of course but I'd be surprised if anyone has done that. I still have yet to see any "Cheater" in tanki at all in two years, so I'd be amazed if someone did it on video

I guess the question is how important are rules for rule's sake. If a guy gives a funny vid of a hack he found...idk if thats malicious or intended to hard, which would seem to be the reason for the rules...but then again, TO does ban ppl for letting more than one person use an account, so idk what their stance would be

Its interesting how most games would have people arguing over the balance of things like turrets, but somehow tanki has those balanced so well mostly that we discuss hull overdrives, because thats all there really is to discuss....and for the most part, those are balanced as well. hornet is annoying, but also requires a ton of drugging if you want to consistently top boards and not die constantly

The nice thing is nowadays, even f2p players can spam supplies like the biggest buyer out there

This is a fair idea. I like it. What I like is that it allows turret like rail and thunder who normally face all 50% prots, to have success. What I dont like is that it allows magnum to oneshot titan under a dome

Alright....I have been convinced. Hornet's OD is the strongest OD out there. Imo its perfectly fine when being used with fire/freeze/thunder etc, but magnum....just saw a guy go 23-3 with it....nothing I could do vs him. Its the same thing as the hunter...they press shift and you die. As a change, I'd suggest the overdrive ignores protection or armor only, or slow down the recharge a bit so it can only happen the same number of times as Vikings

So lately, I've seen fewer games ruled by hunters...this might be that playstyle adapted, but more likely the newer version of its overdrive is much more balanced. I still see hornets at the top sometimes, which should be fine as I also see vikings and others, but i also see xp players camping in the back, getting a few kills but not influencing the game much. Seems that the game is quite balanced right now....I've even seen dictators contibuting nicely to their team quite a bit

So I've always enjoyed watching vids from the old days of tanki...mainly for nostagia even tho ive only played for about 2 years. And I've noticed something. Now days, you see some players dominating and others multing...in those days, the players who had k/d of like .09 were trying, they just didnt have supplies or equipment to compete. I used to be baffled how players could dominate so easily...now I watch those old vids and see m4 turrets one shotting m2's and similar, while the m4 was using supplies and the m2 couldn't. These days, when a player gets wrecked, its not bc they only have m1s or dont have supplies. Everyone has these things, and I personally think it means everyone has a much better chance to participate

What? how are you evaluating overdrives. Other than maybe hornet its the strongest....I'd suggest it is the strongest. Press shift and all your enemies around are helpless

I play a lot of wasp/hornet so I'm very aware when there are a lot of bigger hulls. It is more balanced now tho than before the overdrives, which is nice The white writing means I'm glad Hunter is a viable hull now...used to feel that Viking was the vast majority of medium hulls used. I see lots of ppl with thousands of hours in viking, but I dont think I've seen anyone with 1k hours with hunter

I actually like the look if the html version...different but cool. If they could extend the time between spawns to change equipment Id be all over it

Im not arguing that its not good, just that its not any different from hunter or viking. Most people still choose viking or hunter over hornet, which Id say explains what they believe to be the strongest. Maybe Ill see a hornet dominating a battle here or there, but its mostly vikings and hunters. At least im listing two hulls instead of just viking lol. Esports battles used to be al viking spam

Idk about that, you could instead choose to use viking or hunter, both of which have speed almost as good as hornets while having a lot more health. Hornets overdrive requires it to not die for 20 seconds, while the others just press shift and get a bunch of quick kills if they are smart.

Ahhhh....before the cam moves...thats relevant. In flash you can change any time before your tank appears. That makes sense, thanks

Mods can merge this and delete it if they want. I am just interested to see if my observations are correct. Two things: 1) When I self-destruct, I haven't been losing a kill. I've flipped and got angry only to realize I only gained a death. This has happened several times and now I am looking for it. Is this a new thing? 2) I really like the look of the HTML version but will not switch over currently. In old tanki, you can switch equipment between death and spawning without dying. However, when I change gear in html, I exit the garage to find that my old tank spawned in and I am force to self destruct. This seems bad and seems an unnecessary thing to change. I have tested this several times and it happens the same every time. Is there a way to change gear without selfing?

Magnum and Shaft easily

I love that it slows down gameplay. You can have an attacking force spawn killing and boom...now theres a safe zone for defenders to rally. Or perhaps a Titan sets up its dome around the enemy flag...flag runners can sprint in, grab the flag, and sprint out

So the poll seems to suggest that Viking has the best overdrive, and maybe thats true, but I really think they've balanced it quite nicely. It can wreak havoc, but also charges slowly so those moments are few and far between...more like tactical strikes

I used to love playing BP in battles, but since the overdrives came out, have you all seen any BP players do well? Facing lots of 50% makes the combo see kinda bad

There are a lot more maps in rotation which is sweet. Still a few more I'd like to see such as Kolhoz and maybe courage....the ones I remember seeing when I first started
