No. You are making dudes rage a lot more if OD are scrapped than nerfed. And oops, they quit the game, which is part of the "players are quitting" problem.

Are you sure about that? Because Shaft/Railgun/Gauss will render your modules almost useless. And oops, they gonna be really annoying even more than they are now.

Hm... here are my numbers: -Does not bypass spawn invulnerability and module. -Completely ignore DA (with Defender factored in) -And ignore dome by 75%. Stacks additive. Meaning 15% defence will not be ignored.

It is actually a good idea, well for peek-a-boo Strikers. There are time when Strikers want to fire rockets from the left but then the right barrel was used, resulting self-damage or even harakiri in the process. Situational, but good idea. 4.5/5.

Nope. Too OP. That way, we can't tell what OD a Dictator could be using.

What about Light Capacitor?

Not necessary.

P2W system I am seeing.

Let to break it down: Not possible, as Maf said. Supplies are the main revenue for Alternativa. If that's taken away, they will have hard time keep the game running. And oops, Tanki died because no moolah to keep the server runnin'. Using Gear Score in matchmaking will not fit. The reason why is one may have high level Hull and Drone but low level Paint, module and turret. It just doesn't make sense. I actually like the idea of downgrading equipment, but hm... is it necessary for the majority of tankers? Oh please, it will break the game economy.... And doesn't seem to be worth it. Reasonable price you say. I think it should be based on their performance, not particular rank. I don't like this method, since it is just, driving them away from matchmaking. What is the obsession of the old Madness???!!! I kept seeing this. What turrets would you like to see with recoil/impact force increased? Gear score does not tell anything other than 9999, like what??? More like by micro-upgrades. How would you balance OD? I chose Hornet the 1st one to get rebalanced. Nope, takes away of uniqueness of the hulls. And it will be harder to tell which OD a Dictator would use. Thirty-five to forty percent is good, but some, want full fifty. Don't get me wrong, 35% provides good defence without being OP. Giving gameplay items? Like what? Uh.... what is elo???

I faced that myself. Yeah, unless matchmaking disables Supplies (even though it will be impossible), then balance will come back. Yeah, Hornet OD SERIOUSLY need to get nerfed. I believe that Hornet OD should ignore Titan's Dome, Double Armor (with Defender drone) but not modules and spawn invulnerability. The reason why is Defenders grants even higher defence than module (80% in contrast of 1/2 when alone). If the Defender is ignored (assume spawn invulnerability wore off), your Falcon/Eagle/Owl modules will be your last defence. Heck, 35-50% does provide good defence against turrets.

Any problems of dealing opponent who are using too much Supplies?

More like, leaving the match is the palatable solution. Hm.... Hornet OD should only ignore module and Double Armor (with Defender) and partially ignore Titan's dome defence by 50% .

First of all, yes, OD/Drones did change the game a lot, however they still can be tackled without spending $$$ in the game. I faced dudes using Booster drones myself. But I didn't seek to quitting the game.

Heard of him yes.

Only play Daily Mission

Fourty seven percent of Shark module and DA.... get oofed by Hornets. There is no way a Hornet-Vulcan can shred you in "nano seconds", as it is impossible for the server processing data and the opponent's reaction that fast. Unless you are trying to say Hornet-Vulcan shreded you immediately (less than 1 second). "Either remove module ot nerf drones." I rather nerf drones because I see a lot of negative comment toward it, but please don't nerf that innocent Brutus, it's not even close to OP. Removing modules will not go well, no Grizzly and Falcon modules means they become even more more annoying. I need Spider module to protect myself from those annoying mines.

Hold up, Isida and Hammer? Ocelot and Wolf modules are rare sight in battle nowadays. However, when Duplet first released, almost every tankers have M4 Wolf (or today's equivalent of Mk7+) equipped because of how OP it was back then. Now, it got rebalanced by the scatter range. For the part of "3 shells cannot destroy a Viking or Hunter", they are either using Defender Drone or/and combination of high level Wolf module. Or you are a bit far away.... The issue of Shaft you are talking about, " can kill within a shot and 3 or 4 without even aiming". If you notice, Shaft's Sniping damage got buffed by 10% a while back. Pop that with 20/20 Brutus, Hornet's OD and Heavy Capacitor, you are guarantee to OHKO any non-Juggernaut tanks. In addition, the most controversial alternation "Rapid Fire Mode" made Shaft a burst firing pistol, capable of dishing 2115 damage per burst in average. With Scout Radar and Booster, maximum protection against Shaft (Eagle module, Titan's dome and Defender) became obsolete.

It is possible for a F2P to compete with P2W bois, but it is hard.

Incinerated? I thought you said "cremated" LOL.

The problem is many Hornet/Wasp Railgun dude(ttes) are using that mode to prevent matchmaking. I saw complaints of "MM takes forever...", that's because there are less tankers. What I am seeing is Alternativa are trying to bring those guys to matchmaking. An incentive hm....

My apology of my grammar, as I am not a native English speaker. I am aware of the player counts is declining, but let's face it, any game will be gone one day. Ten years is a long time. I knew a game that got shut down after 8 years.

Hello? You are the one who complain that OD ruined the game, not me. Like da hell?

Define "died". When you made the statement of "How Tanki DIED", it tells me that "How Tanki Online got shutted down". You want to know what game "DIED"? Tanki X. Because it got shutted down. Let me tell you, I know a game called Pixel Gun for almost 6 years now. I faced bad updates that made other Pixel Gunners QUITING the game. For example, during version 8.x.x to 9.x.x., the coin farming became nearly impossible and the once-P2W currency called Gem makes it even more impossible. Version 13.x.x.x to 14.x.x.x was even worse, old guns got powercrept, reskins got overly buffed and upgrades were overpriced. For example, Automatic Peacemaker got nerfed to whopping 35 headshots kill, while Champion counterpart was 7 headshots kill. Version 15.1.0 was the significant change of the game itself. Weapons are rebalanced that they can compete each other without gaining advantage with others, their cost and upgrade became cheaper. However, weapons like Champion Mercenary got powercrept to 17 headshots kill compared to 4 headshots kill before. This itself caused massive arguments of "Nice update!" or "Trash update!". And now.... there are players whom still resent the game but upgrade weapons are easier because of watching ad videos despite of massive price.

Well that's me myself though....

This is actually a good update. I am seeing what Alternativa is doing. They are trying to encourage more tankers to matchmaking, which is good stuff. For real. And yeah, XP/BP is still possible, but in unformatted.
