How the **** can you come to a conclusion of whether I care about the objective or not based on my results in battle?

There is a battle groups function. You don't have to pay to use it. Happened all the time before as well.

Really? How come the guy on red team who earned 214 points got 217 crystals? Compare that to the new MM: Fair or not it's much better.

There are MORE players in this picture. If anything, the rewards should be GREATER.

Literally ever modern team based game has a MM. If it didn't work MM wouldn't be so popular.

Here's a screenshot from the old system: Look at the guy who got 205 score on the losing team. See how many crystals he got? 76. Don't try to provide some fake reasons to hate on the new system since the old fund distribution system was literally rubbish and deep down you know it.

Here is my first MM battle: What I like is that though I was on the losing team and finnished in 4th place, I still got as many crystals as I would on the winning team with the old system. Excellent work with the distribution of battle funds - it's perfect. That said, the teams are not exactly evenly matched. We had two Major Generals, while the enemy team had all Marshal and above. It's unsurprising that we lost, since having 2 lower ranks in an 8 player team is a pretty big deal. Admittedly, the last three players joined later in the battle, but still.

The fact that we can leave battles without penalty is nice. A penalty will probably be implemented in the future, but for now, I'm rather enthusiastic about fairer battles.

They said Hunter looks slower or something stupid like that.

Not happening. Not everyone enjoys playing meatgrinders like you do.

Yes. Some maps are ruined because they heavily favor a few turrets. You know, Brest, Massacre, Highways . . . at least with MM it will be a somewhat even playing field. Learn to play Shaft on maps besides ones designed specifically for the turret and stop ruining the game for everyone else. You're perfectly capable.

You have both Hunter and Hornet M2, with a few dozen hours on both. How can you not notice a significant speed difference between the two?

You don't need to buy drugs with crystals. You get plenty of them through daily missions.

Magnum players have had an advantage over pretty much everyone else for over a year now. If I was given an option to buy a "domination pass" for 100-200k crystals that would give me a significant advantage in the game for over a year, of course I would buy it.

There are two ways to make money from a game: one is to milk players of every bit of cash they have and then kill the game, and the other is to continue developing the game actively, a side effect of which is that players may not like the changes. Which one would you prefer?

Why would you encourage people to do this . . . ?

You will be able to combine up to 3 single modules in any way you like.

The game has always been P2W. In fact the difference between buyers and free players used to be greater, as MUs were very expensive. Now that they are cheaper, it's easier for F2Ps to upgrade their equipment, but that has also made it more profitable for buyers to buy. Getting 10/10 MUs on an item is standard practice for both F2Ps and P2Ps. If crystal boxes were your main source of income, it feels like you spent more time collecting them than actually playing the game, which is a problem. Let's not forget that after crystal boxes were removed, battle funds were globally increased. It is also much easier in general to earn crystals now, because missions exist - they should be your main source of income. In my opinion the devs are being very, very, generous with the rewards you get from missions. Right . . . in the good old days, people who spent money on the game logged off and cried themselves to sleep after being traumatized by the words "noob buyer." I'd advise against looking at the past through rose-tinted glasses.

Not being P2W and being balanced are not the same thing.

not even remotely there is literally only one drone in tanki x and it has nothing to do with the abilities drones in TO have

The weak rivets theory was disproved.

I agree here. However, LGC module owners should still be compensated even if it is necessary to remove them for balance. Compensation in a new, consumable currency is very dodgy.

At least there will be some compensation for removed modules. Given how much faith Tanki devs put in drones, it seems they will be a pretty important game mechanic and having batteries for them I feel will be more significant than we feel now. Actually no. LGC module owners are still being ripped off, because batteries are consumables and not permanent items. That said, WHY THE HELL DO WE NEED DRONES?? Why do we need a stupid gimmick that improves supplies and encourages people to drug even more? Why do we need another consumable? Why does this consumable need to be powered by a new currency?? Energizer seemed really promising, now it's just stupid. At least XT owners will get compensation for MUs on both pieces of equipment.

If you want to play with keyboard, why not play on PC?
