It’s cluttered and full of annoying “eye candy.” The colours are too vivid and distracting, but I guess it does look quite nice from an aesthetics point of view.

Point taken. However it still sounds like they hired too many 3D artists as opposed to programmers and even just people who are simply knowledgeable on the topic of game balance. I’m also fine with them selling cosmetics in the shop. But the prices are insane. Even for people who make a decent amount for a living, €200-300 euros per bundle is ridiculous.

Why would it cost you? Players want more content, sooner. Remasters take months…how many remastered maps do we have so far? That’s right, just ONE. Didn’t you go out of your way in a vlog not too long ago to point out that players get bored of the same content…so how is a new HD skin/aesthetic to maps going to count as new content? This is laughable.

@Opex-Rah Since you guys are so keen on cosmetics why not just add a whole bunch of maps to the MM map pool? Even old ones like Crash/Gallery… Balance is already out the window thanks to OP augments/status effects so why does it even matter if maps aren’t “balanced for MM?”

Servers, MM, fixing bugs and glitches, game balance, new maps, new crystal augments,…,etc. But sure, let’s ignore all that and put a band aid over it with cosmetics.

So this whole vlog is about cosmetic items and game aesthetics…

Yeah, we know. You guys are counting on it.

Just rename it to “DDoS Weekend” since that’s what always happens anyway.

No, this update to Gauss is bad. Like, really bad. Now all the Crisis users can peak out and quickly dish out massive damage with ease due to that short aiming time. As if we needed yet another source of ridiculous burst damage.

You already have it, so where’s the challenge for you ?

F2P players: suffering Hazel:

So if you’re a newbie RNG will decide your playstyle. How stupid is that…

No one wants your lame containers.

Check PM.

Wait, you’re saying it takes FIVE years to port a game over to a mobile OS? ??

That list has said the iOS app is “work in progress/planned” since about 2017 or so. It means nothing.

This game will never get a sizeable number of new players to stay in its current state. Hazel said he’s planning to release it on console, but just imagine how it will be absolutely destroyed by reviewers and will amount to nothing but an epic fail.

I play another browser game, one with a German dev team, and there have literally never been any technical issues and they listen to player concerns and act on feedback. Moreover they conduct polls before major changes and let the playerbase decide if big changes to the game are acceptable. But no, in Tanki we have one man calling the shots because he thinks he knows what’s best for everyone. Quite literally.

Yes, I’m sure it’s a very SPECIAL episode for beginners - who will immediately leave when they see how ridiculous the XP to crystal gains are and how broken Matchmaking is, among a plethora of other issues.

Wait, didn’t devs say the “era of DDoS is over”? So they…lied?

PROVOCATION!!!

@TheCongoSpider The intention was never to “balance”. The intention is and always was to buff/nerf some equipment seemingly at random and introduce new OP equipment and promptly nerf it when it becomes available to everyone. But hopefully you understand and are being sarcastic with that video title.

Welcome to the club.

Sounds like provocation to me. @NikmanGT where are you…

Why did you move it here? This is a general topic about the current state of the game and it’s not even an official admin-created topic.
