Completely useless drone, that should not have ever even been a standalone drone to begin with, just like Hyperion XT. They literally should just made this an equipable skin. I genuinely wonder why would anyone even want to pay horrendous amounts of money to get +1GS point and passable looks. I believe normal Crisis is already oppressive as it is, if they wanted Crisis XT to be somewhat better while still not gamebreaking they should have tempered with the supply consumption. Like let it have the same power as regular Crisis but let it consume less supplies including batteries. As of now. I literally have no idea why any buyer would ever spend money to get this drone, it is just a HORRIBLE deal. You might as well buy a bag of dirt for 20k dollars.

Hi there. I believe that for some time now, the rewards in the Ultra Containers, especially in the Exotic tier are cycled during the events, so not all exotic augments and equipment is available at all times. You can find what is currently available in the UC in the event topics of news section or by clicking on the UCs in the garage and then clicking the show all button on the right which should show you all the possible rewards currently available in those specific containers.
-
I believe right now, its only the Tab that shows the augments used, protections, score and K/D. There used to be certain keys, but I think they only worked in Adobe. Not 100% sure, though.

I actually like that paint, would like to have it but the rest is kinda meh, Hopper is dead, stun immu isnt the greatest for it either, EMP Railgun is dead so that is pass as well, the only thing I would try is freezing hammer, but I got enough Hammer augments. Vulcan skin is meh dont use it. Easy pass on this one

Actually, if it is anything like the past minigames, it is good for players to be pushed back a couple of times, as it allows you to get the rewards for the islands you already passed again. If you move through islands too quickly you will probably end up stuck somewhere between 3rd and 4th island, meaning you wont get any rewards for those steps as you need to finish the whole circle to get the rewards.

Doubt it, but from current meta - Gauss, Scorpion, Thunder, Rico are almost always present and a must, other good protections that are pretty much a necessity are Hammer, Shaft, Magnum, Tesla and possibly Striker. The Other protections: Isida - I dont really see these very often, Isida protection is exclusively used against Vampire nanobots Augment, I would not ever equip it otherwise Firebird - basically never used protection Freeze - other protection that is not a default protection, only ever used if there are a couple of freezes in the enemy team, usually high GS players that actually know how to use it and have other powerful equipment or skill to support the close range hostile meta. Vulcan -fell of the radar a lot, definitely not as threatening as it used to be, usually only ever see this with Dictator because of the Supercharge (in which case Armadillo is actually better than Vulcan Protection), but it is fairly rare these days, it currently does not compete well with many insta-lock, splash and burst damage augments, nor with gimmicks such as new Thunder augments Twins - see it here and there, but definitely a bit rarer then it used to be, personally dont see many people using this as a default protection, until their run into something like Magnetron augment - which is probably the only augment that forces twins protection unless you have EMP Immunity. Smoky - I have only ever used this protection like twice or three times, Smoky is also quite rarely used on the legend battlefield, can perform good, but I definitely feel it lags behind the current meta defining turrets, such as Rico, Scorpion, Thunder and Gauss. Railgun - very rare these days, personally I dont really use it anymore as Railgun is overshadowed a lot by other aforementioned long range turrets. Status Railguns are basically dead, the only Railguns I see here and there are Scouts, Destabs, and large Calibers, and it seems that two of those are actually better countered by Armadillo rather than Railgun protection itself.

category Ideas for Hulls and Overdrives!
krokorok replied to Ilia.ArchangeI in Ideas and Suggestions
The biggest problem of Dictator OD is the nonexistence of teamplay in this game. Most players are completely numb towards team objectives or teamplay because of very self-centered missions and overpowered gimmicks that promote "one-man-army" syndrome. So the supportive part of Dictators overdrive like supply and health recharge and Supercharge for teammates simply go out the window because people focus solely on what is good for them instead of what is good for the team in that particular situation. When you are competing for Top 3 placement for missions, or are blinded just by your own gain, you simply avoid helping your teammates with the OD, thus wasting a lot of its actual potential. Also Dictator's OD is not that weak, it's just rather not as versatile as something like Viking or Paladin, the two most used medium hulls from which it faces the heaviest competition. Even with the ridiculuos power of Supercharge, it is still very team-oriented OD, so that is something to keep in mind. It wasnt originally made to be offensive Supercharge machine, but rather a team support which is something that you do not see as often anymore. -
Get a new rank mission? Wth? Very legend friendly. Even if you have almost two weeks, not everyone has that amount of time to spend playing for next rank. Why are you trying so hard to make your own game so bothersome is beyond me

Kinda liked that Jug mode last year, so I am actually pretty excited about it. was quite fun.

The Mystery of the disappearance of the artworks of the month contest topic
krokorok replied to Incorp in Archive
I tried checking it through the WIki page: https://en.tankiwiki.com/Best_Artworks_of_the_Month?attempt=1 But the official topic as well as the monthly topics apart from the first 5 installments are not available, meaning that they are most likely hidden rather than archived. As for why, I guess that would be a good question for whoever hid them. Try tagging or contacting Forum admin, perhaps he will be able to clarify why the topics are no longer available in archives. -
In the Game Rules: 2.1.5. Sabotage — Any acts or omissions aimed at creating obstructions for the team where the User is a member.... There are no teams in Deathmatch, thus there is no one you can sabotage, because you are not obstructing anyone or putting anyone in disadvantage.
-
Bruhh, how can you sabotage in a DM? If you are not active in DM it does not affect anyone else negatively.

Decent changes to overpowered equipment, finally. Unfortunately, I dont think the stars will help early battle termination coming from players, as I dont really think that is what is driving people away from battles. MM is being obscenely unbalanced, the GS and Rank differences are just so massive that you simply oftentimes end up in a mult team. Yeah these guys are not planted mults like they used to be 6 years ago, these guys are just not playing in the GS range that they should be. This results in very unenjoyable experience. Who wants to stay in a CTF where enemy is winning by 6 flags? Who wants to play TDM with your teams score being 30 while opponents already has 100 kills? Another thing is that your missions actually support early battle termination from players, especially since they are forced to do them to receive rewards necessary for being at least semi-competitive. Get Top 3? How when you u put us in aforementioned dead battles that have like 4 minutes left? Be in a winning team? How when you u put me into a dead battle with mults? Improve MM, delete trash camping modes like Assault and Siege that are obnoxious, not working properly, heavily favoring just certain playstyles, turrets, and drones to increase the amount of players in the other modes, and perhaps advertise your game so that people at least have an idea that you even exist still.

Not sure if it was suggested before, but I wonder what this would be like: Freeze: Augment "Aquilon" (after the God of strong North Cold Wind, Roman counterpart to Boreas, Boreas is easier to pronounce, but there is already a kit named after it) Pros: + Impact Force - ability to jump with Freeze, using its impact force to prevent flipping, you would also be able to either prevent enemy shots using the impact force, or outright flip the enemy when they are using light hulls or by shooting them continuously from the side + Range - Range would be increased possibly somewhere to the level of High pressure pump augment to be able to hit further + Cone angle - for ability to hit multiple enemies at once Cons: Critical damage removed or reduced significantly Freezing effect - minimal like with AP Freeze Possible increase in energy consumption - being unable to shoot continuously for too long This might increase the popularity and necessity of Heavyweight construction augments that are kinda never used really.

KiD RAiN - 123 Sounds like it might be the NightCore version of it:

Genuinely do not understand why would people pay money to get these drones xD. It blows my mind that people will buy stars to get this stuff, something that is even less profitable in battle than regular Crisis for one extra GS point and okayish looks. Viva la capitalism, I guess.

Hi there, what is your and your friends rank? You can only invite players to a group that are 5 ranks below or above you, so that might be the issue. Edit: Just checked your ratings, and I believe that is the issue. Your rank is Marshall, while your friend is only Lieutenant Colonel, so the rank difference between you is too high for you to be put in the same group. I think your friend will need to rank at least once before you are able to play together in one group

Hi there. There are two ways of completing this mission. First, you can collect the nuclear energy box that spawns in the maps just like other supply boxes. It looks just like this: Drop Zone: Second, you can also finish this mission by activating your own nuclear energy supply in battles if you have any. Obviously make sure you are playing Matchmaking battles, as all the missions can only be finished in the MM. Also, the nuclear supply boxes do not drop in certain maps and certain modes. However I am certain that most TDM, Juggernaut, and Assault defending side do have nuclear energy drop zones. Try to check middle of maps as that's where most of the drop zones are usually located.

Ratings page is generally very gimmicky, especially when it comes to efficiency ratings. We still do not know how the efficiency is calculated, but I know some people used to complain about the efficiency being very sketchy, and if I recall correctly, someone actually mentioned that staying inactive actually benefits ones efficiency rating. It seems that the more one plays, the more his efficiency go down, especially in current MM when players are often put in a very unfavorable teams and thus tend to perform worse. If you check the current Efficiency ranking, you will see that absolute majority of higher ranked players there are actually inactive accounts. Even the one you mentioned has been last active on forum in 2013, joined back in 2011, so it is a very old and supposedly very inactive account. All r_names accounts are basically inactive accounts whose names have been claimed by new players. I do not know how you found out that the player ranked to legend 4 account in 4hrs? If you can, please explain. My only explanation can be that, very long time ago, the highest rank was Marshall, then it was changed to Generallisimo, and then Legends have been added. So perhaps, he checked on his account after a very, very long time, and his experience was recalculated to match the new rank system implemented, I guess. So yeah, I would not really pay attention to ratings much, especially not to efficiency. I believe Opex, the head developer, mentioned somewhere that ratings page is absolutely not on their list of near-future plans when it comes to updates.
