Category Ideas for extra information to add in the Tab score table
Potdindy replied to BlackWasp777 in Ideas and Suggestions
The danger with things like this is making is so complicated that you cant quickly see what is going on. I do like that the score in TO shows better what youre doing than other games. In an xpbp game, I can shoot the healthy players knowing that even if I don't get the kill, I will get score for those shots. One thing that would be cool would be a way to see how many times youve killed each person and vice versa. That's not really needed tho -
Well call me impressed with your answer....no actually dont, call me Pot, but good answer thanks. Love "very clean near-perfect karma and many other hidden criteria" :)

Young admins and players reporting hackers
Potdindy replied to Potdindy in Young admins and players reporting hackers Archive
So recently I have come into contact with an issue that is troubling and I'm not sure where to ask about this. First of all is the constant accusation of hacking. I was just in a battle with a character who reported me for having m3s at too early of a lvl...even tho you can buy kits earlier than I did lol. Last week, another player reported my clan leader for hacking, even though he obviously did not, but neither would show the vid or screenshot of the offender. This brings up another question. How old are most admins. Idk what the correct term is, but the people in charge of banning. I was in a game with someone who was super eager to ban someone for virtually no reason...when I asked how old he was, he said 14. Are there a lot of people in authority who are that young? If so that is troubling. I do not want to lose an acct simply because someone was overeager to ban people. Lastly, there has got to be some consequence to false accusations. If someone accuses a person of hacking but gives no good evidence, they should receive a warning or something so that this word of banning isnt on everyone's mind. Any thoughts or comments? -
What makes you Mad in Tanki? Things you hate/like in the game?

Polygon and xpbp? -
So, I thought that mamoth was the slow, imoveable hull with higher armor, almost like a fort, while titan was a bit faster but lighter. Sounds like this is not correct
-
Does the same apply to Mammoth Titan? Are choices either faster/less stable and slower but stronger
-
Has anyone ever said why the floor was removed?
-
So why do people seem to use dictator so much, at least at my level. And viking seems to be the most common of all
-
Alright so I know there is the "what to buy" thread which deals with some of this, but I'm not thinking of buying. I have found that at the m3 level, hulls of similar weight have the same hp. My question is this: Lots of people use viking or dictator but not hunter. What are the pro's and cons of each of these if they have the same health. The same goes for Titan and Mammoth. Is there a reason to use dictator bsides getting golds? Whenever I look around for info I hear crap like "Dictator is a big target which is bad" or "Viking is stable", but neither of those are really relevant to many games. Apparently some ppl think Titan looks bad, so is that the only reason to use mammoth? What does hunter have over the others?

Honestly if you save for hornet/rail m2 kit you can play xpbp all day for free and easily make enough crystals to cover your pass
-
Sorry, I think he meant 500k euros, but forgot the "k" at the end. Whew glad that clears things up
-
What does "Hay Ka" mean? I've asked this so many times yet it always gets ignored
-
Oh yeah, why do ppl ask for admin? I've always assumed theres not any admins that hear it. "Gold was?" I always respond, "Gold was...what?" :)

While playing TO, I have seen so many funny things that have even caused me to stop playing because I was laughing so hard. The variety of ages and countries brings many hilarious quotes or other moments such as: ""Tanker's name" you noob. Turn turret!" Playing xpbp for a while before realizing one of my teammates wasn't turning his turret and was kindly encouraged to by an opposing player. "Stop! Nobs" I love when ppl write "nob". I always ask them what a nob is, and laugh as they try to explain. "**** you *******. Please stop ***** ****" One xpbp game, the other team kept bumping into each other, knocking off their aim and flipping each other. I was hilarious to me, but this guy was so amused. "Noob" This word always makes me laugh. Does it mean the noob is bad at TO? Or does it mean he just destroyed someone and they are raging. What are the moments or quotes that have made you laugh the most? With all the human interactions, there are plenty to go around.

So, here are some thoughts. There are some things that actively hurt someone's ability to have the crystals they want. The first is what I've heard as "I'm only playing for xp". Leaving a game after gaining a bunch of experience, but not gaining any coin hurts you because ppl who did not leave games will have way more crystals for their xp amount. Also, missions give reward daily, so the less you play each day, as long as you hit your missions, the mre crystals you will have because you will be getting rewarded much closer together. If you feel you are behind others, try just doing missions each day. You will advance slowly, but the constant flow of crystals will build up quickly.

So I am almost to the lvl where M3 kits start unlocking. Im planning on getting the Rail/Hornet kit just because I like to occasionally play xp, but for normal battles, is that combo a decent one? Currently my main combos are fire/thunder and viking/hornet, but since I won't be able to M3 either of my main turrets until Marshal, what would be a good turret to use in the mean time. I'm planning on MUing my m3 hornet and eventually viking when I hit Marshal, but for a while, I'll just be using hornet. Would smoky or Ricco do better that Rail as a light hull mount? Or can rail be a fine normal battle gun. I'd don't want to hear "Hornet/Rail is the best" or "XP sucks", but rather reasons
-
Maybe this should be considered as every other post says "topic merged" which means lots of ppl think that would be a good idea

You mentioned the drugging thing. I used to go into non-pro battles only for my missions and usually right after the server restarted. I found that everyone was drugging out of their minds. Now I wait a bit and the first wave of druggers passes and I can then enjoy the battles more
-
I do love in any mode when someone gets lit up and they yell hacker. Like, "nope...you just got lit up". I've enjoyed pretty much all of my xp games and I suck at it. People seem more about etiquete there than other places. Sometimes theres the old, "no cap, just kill" when youre down 4v2 giving them all the free kills, but thats not common.
-
Does the average age of players go up as you rank up or not? Meaning, there's not a lot of communication at the lower ranks but much more higher up. Is this because players are older and thus more involved in the game?

So I'm thinking that especially in this game, turrets should have a specific role in battle that makes them unique or interesting. Most of the already existing turrets have similar weapons in real life and are used similarly. Those that don't have interesting aspects to them that makes them different. Firebird: Has incredible damage pretty much as a melee weapon. Great for charging in and swinging. Freeze: Similar to Fire but has the interesting aspect of freezing the opponant. Isida: Also good at close range but can also function as team medic. Hammer: Maybe a bit longer range, this functions like a shotgun, with powerful knockback. Twins: Like a modern AKM, this weapon is solid at close to mid range. It can keep up good fire at a variety of ranges. Riccochet: Erm, I dont know what this parallels to, but the bouncing aspect is interesting. Smoky: This functions much like a normal tank shot. Powerful at mid- long range it can keep up decent rate of fire. Thunder: Not sure what function this fills other than getting massed kills at CP or on a gold box. Rail/Shaft: These function as weapons for sitting back for easier kills but with shaft its hard to take territory. Magnum: This is good at most everything but is a mirror of modern artillery Thoughts on suggesting a new turret, suggest what role it can fill that isnt already filled by another turret. If it existed, why should I play it over another turret without making that one obsolete?

When people talk to me they usually call me Pot or Potdingly...idk how that second one came about, but my name has nothing to do with grass...weed or anything like that. It is a reference to my little sister whom we used to call Dindy. She has Downs Syndrome and has always had a Pot belly. It is one of her characteristics that I love the most lol so I am reminded of her by this

I wonder if, similar to this, there could be options in chat to give specific chats. Meaning you could click an option to say "Heavy Tanks defend" That would translate to whatever language the person's client is in. That may be a bit much though

She's probably not as good of a friend as you imagined then. Yesterday I got stuck in a long CTF game to 120 flags where my team was losing. The host was talking major trash constantly begging for each person that joined to leave. We started coming back with a new person who was kicking major butt, but then he had to go... :( The host was so happy that the begging was working. We did end up losing. The happy part was this: Late in the game, the trash talker's turret stopped doing damage. Thats happened to me before and can be fixed by refreshing the browser. Our team surged forward as it was basically 3v2 now. However, when he did refresh, immediately a new person took his place and he lost his 250+ kills and 4000+ score. Felt like justice

This is the reason why online tanki became a P2W game and the community is getting smaller and smaller.
Potdindy replied to GTime in Archive
Fair, but I'd say that it gives any more hours of enjoyment than most of, you said AAA, games. I do understand the concern though, dont get me wrong
