there is telling your opinion and then there is flat out saying non sense ? What about comparing it to another PREMIUM healing augment like THUNDER? Why does it also do normal damage? And no aim argument is dumb because it's devs refusing to fix a bug and not "nerfing it" or whatever Buddy Rapid fire and Healing and Phoenix (we are not counting that) are the only augments that are worth your time on Shaft. where is my shaft buff? And I have maxed garage with basically every augment there is and i'm using different combos constantly and I can tell that getting 0 damage with Gauss once a blue moon makes ABSOLUTELY NO DIFFERENCE to me. Yeah we're not playing the same game LMAO. don't you think if campers actually provided to the team and not well you know... ONLY CARED ABOUT THEMSELVES and shot random enemy 5 lightyears away from a flag that was camping in a corner they would be hated so much? Hmm tell me Tekken8 what do you think would make him have a chance to even compete against the camping mess that is every capture battle? Hint hint it's not nanobot isida Also I guess we're forgetting how every update is indirectly nerfing Shaft? From Lifeguard to Scorpion to Defender buff list goes on and on. Getting a kill with Shaft is actually near impossible in some battles and that's bad for a turret designed to oneshot a tank.

It's obvious why he wants it nerfed. He sees a healer purposely ignoring his entire team for a moment and healing only the attacker going for the flag which makes the attacker near unkillable in a 1v1 situation and then thinks that that's how heal shaft works 24/7 on every teammate. told you 99% ? the people in question is like 3 people in this forum and that's it. Go to chat all you see is people complaining about Flying Monkey, Magnum and whatever is the most OP exotic. Haven't seen a single person outside of this forum complaing about heal shaft. Even in matches. It's complete opposite in matches actually. The amount of "Thx" and "Sps" I get is insane. People also purposely give me the flag so I can cap it just because I healed them. Yeah doesn't look like they're mad about heal shaft at all. Enemies also just don't care. Smoky's crit is more of a nerf than a buff at this point. As for Tesla completely agree.

Tekken is not cooking at all. Let's complain about everyone playing DM in team modes while begging for healers to get nerfed because I guess being the only one ACTUALLY PLAYING a team game is very bad now. If you're gonna nerf heal shaft then overbuff healing isida by giving it phoenix range by default. Also complaining about 250k crystal augment being trash. Yeah 99% if not a full 100% of crystal augments are trash because the high tier augments are locked behind a 0,0001% chance so no ? they're going to be 50 times better and ppl complaining about magnum 0 damage is INSANE as if magnum loosers are not annoying enough. They can do no damage 9/10 times and they'll still be by far the most annoying thing in the entire match. As for Gauss 0 damage, who cares? It's beyond braindead to use after it's "mobile sniper" update. I did no damage oh no now I'll have to wait for 3 seconds before doing crazy damage because I looked at the enemy for 0,01 seconds.

Lol let's nerf the only thing that can still bring at least some teamplay to a TEAM GAME. Before you cry about nanobots you're comparing a 250k crystal augment with an augment that has a 0,001% chance of being pulled. Yes putting it in a pass is a mistake but NO healing augments should be nerfed. spear just tickles the enemy who cares lol wait till you discover crystal augments. yes lets add another thing to worry about. oh my then don't camp. balance doesn't exist so it won't suffer. They can make the pause time 13 minutes for all I care trust me the result will be the same. No miner nerf suggestion is interesting...

Purple Railgun Shot effect? No new RT skins for buyers? (Yeah they're ugly but still) No miner nerf? No fun event modes? (Hopper is annoying whether you use it or other person uses it)

The game is not enjoyable at all for new players currently. I am a Legend 154 playing since 2013 and I'm not gonna sugarcoat it. I enjoy the "new" tanki and like it more than the so called peak fiction tanki. While my account is absurdly stacked for how much I spend I also have a secret 100% F2P account where I don't do missions and have basically no augments at Legend 10 (I still easily get TOP 3. the "skill doesn't matter" people in shambles right now). I get carried by skill and not relying on broken Toys. New players will likely heavily rely on Toys to perform good. And we all know what happens when you rely on toys but there is an enemy with stronger toy. Getting washed by a person who was 5% luckier than you is not a scheme for a fun game that a new player who has no idea what's going on would like. Here is what they MUST do before trying to gain new players. 1. Not use graphics as a thing to attract new players. Tanki has average Graphics and with new gen games like GTA 6 that have basically real life level Graphics also some random game (idk it's name) that has graphics so realistic it ACTUALLY LOOKS LIKE REAL LIFE AND IF YOU DIDN'T KNOW IT'S A GAME YOU'D THINK IT'S REAL LIFE. Tanki will not be competing in graphics department any time soon. Them hyping up below average Graphics like it's the second coming of Jesus is just a waste of time. 2. Balance MM. Yes. Obvious. Hazel said... Yes he actually said... it in some random Q&A that "We make things disbalance MM because we think that balanced battles would be way more boring than a complete Squash match every time". Well I can tell you that a balanced match even if it ends in 0-0 is INFINITELY better than a squash match even if you're on a team that is doing the squashing. 3. Add bots in mid-game too. Obviously they can't just add it whenever. They have to actually make bots compete with mid-game players. This instantly fixes the "oh im generalissimo how dare they put me with a legend rank!! so unbalanced" problem. No increasing waiting times for more balanced rank bracket without bots is not the way. You may like the extra 2 minutes of waiting time to get into a match but 99% of people DO NOT. ESPECIALLY NEW PLAYERS. these are the 3 main things.

no. just no.

(Playing since 2013) I do like them adding new things constantly. I would not be interested anymore if it stayed the same. Tho all I want is augments and skins not grenades and other spam. I also think they should reduce the junk in Epic Containers. The "Featured" system (bringing legendary augments to exotic so they're easier to get for a week or two) is a good idea but we have too much absolutely useless filler. Paints were created as filler but now we have so many LITERALLY UNUSABLE augments due to nerfs that getting even a single useful item that is not locked behind 1% chance is getting near impossible and will only get harder. Which is going to lead to bigger and bigger gap between old and new players since new players will likely not work their asses off and get skills. Instead they'll chase for new OP toys. New players can easily compete even if they're F2P and put in impossible scenarios on paper. One of the new players that started playing the game would ask me for advice constantly (started when he was around WO2). I told him the best f2p combo that is not locked behind any containers. He used it till he got to Legend. By pure coincidence I got matched with him. He was Marshal (7000+ GS) and was literally the only non legend player. The match was pure chaos with my team spawning and instantly rushing to the enemy base creating absolute chaos in the middle of the map. The map had the "Big Boys" with Heavy Artillery like Faust, Triplet etc. That guy while he didn't get first place he was in the TOP 3 for the entire match with Smoky and Hunter with Crystal Augments and had very good K/D not to say he's a new player. So yes if you actually want to improve you can easily have a fun time in the "Legend VS Low Rank" phase of MM. Even though he was on my team I did not try to help him. He was all alone. People don't want to accept it but it is the biggest fact this game will ever have.

Agree. Noobs playing with their Nvidia 730s can't run game as advanced as Tanki Online without getting a slideshow. Point and laugh ? ??

Event mode is incredibly fun lmaoo love the chaos also it acts as a lagger filter so i can finally play without noobs constantly teleporting all over the map. Even if it takes longer to find the map im still happy to play without laggers.

[Tier0] DokanPerfect has been banned. 50 times. 50 TIMES!!!

now filter out some non-sense like "game lag admin bad" because like i said before i and my friends never lagged in this game besides ddos attack. i thought we talking about how bad methmeking is and not the entire game as a whole. also i never said this game is perfect i am just doing something where a person says bad things when he thinks something is bad and good thinks when something is good! look at me are you proud my engish techer? well i am an artist in real life so i'll make sure to be your art techer just like how you are my english tecaher!!! so i better see some nice work! and don't forget practice is key to success! i bought but it did not effect my road to legend. yeah i got a lot of free crystals but i waited for sales. i was field marshal with 4.9k GS in matchmaking. then when xmas sale hit i spent a million crystals and got stacked! now i have almost every augment in this game so i help players decide whats good and bad! like new KONTRAKT event a lot of people are discussing which augments to buy and i help them decide because i have experience using these agment! i'll teach you how to be good in methmaking without campign! redy!? 1 to 3!! first (1) step! STEP DOS (2)!!!!!!!!! tri step! (3') step kwatro! (4) edit extreme important info!!! i used protection of guass, shaft, reilgun and skropion! i think this is what made my unkillable so im so sorry man of the Nik that is GT do you think im the hostile evil boogeyman in this discussion or did my title got taken away?

i like dramas lol

insert "developers sadly cannot fix your internet connection" or whatever the loading screen tip is called. the "real" FPS count here is 310+ but because my display is 144Hz I cap my FPS for technical reasons. Ping 30-60 rarely jumping to 100. My internet is 100 Mb/s. Might be an overkill for tanki but i'm sure even something like 5 Mb/s would be enough for tanki i'm sure. And once again my friends that play tanki never complain about any lag. And let me tell you they would be the first to complain if they start lagging. Hazel won't buy you good internet connection just so you can play the game. What flying monkeys being immortal have to do with GS in MM? the monkey was 9k+ GS. Ever heard of RNG... You're opening a lootbox with random reward... The pull rates are literally above each item. If I go to a casino I don't expect to walk out a milionaire. look I opened 105 epic containers and got 78 Greens 18 Blues 7 Purples 2 Yellows 0 Exotics. I'd call this a bad opening but just because I got unlucky I'm not going to cry in chat because I know what i'm getting myself into. if a person refuses to improve and someone calls out on that fact by saying a slang that is usually associated with goofing around it is not insulting.

lol my tanki gimmick involves bad grammar and starting flame wars. This one was not even intentional but i like it. all i have to say is stop raging and actually play the game. nobody is complaining besides you two. I played Poly CP XP/BP for years if you rly want to know. your graduation score is a big ol F if i was your teacher. our little gentleman is not a nice one ( when a mod agrees with me it's over lol "whatever augment is on Ares" aren't you legend 31? i'd expect a player with this rank to know one of the most common immunities in this game. I mean if you refuse to even teach yourself on what ur using then you raging how tanki is unfair makes sense. I should be surprised you even know the name of the hull hes using. the reality is that people look deeper into the games theyre playing. look in chat and you'll likely see a low rank asking some random question and big rank answering him said question. like i said my F2P friend who didn't spend a cent has MAXED crisis and 2 Mk8 combos at Legend 3 and is not struggling in MM at all. he must be an anomaly then. And if you're crying about me turning into the Boogeyman called Pay to Play Player then i'll reveal some of my lore. On this account I bought challenge passes for crystals and saved crystals for xmas sales. I had 1 million cry at field marshal and had Mk5 gauss and viking which made me have 4,9k GS and I didn't struggle in MM at all. I didn't have broken augments nothing. so you crying is literally just a skill issue. as much as i'd love to make you rage more sadly i don't have more time to waste.

yeah I guess average player doesn't have enough crystals from battles/conts to obtain mk2 at WO ranks and stay above 1k GS... This game truly fell off ? 99% of players at WO have the same 3-5k GS same for other ranks they all have GS that is nearly the same. For legends its 7k-9999. I didn't pay for many years and reached legend rank F2P without any crying about how unbalanced MM is or anything. My first acc btw and I knew nothing about the game I just saw M3 = cool. Oh are you telling me that if I wanted to know how to PROPERLY PLAY A GAME IT WILL BE EASIER TO PLAY? Who would've thought! man you're a smart gentleman. While waiting for battles in chat I tell new players 2-3 things pure basics and it's enough for them. The game is not that complicated for them for some reason. oh wait so youre the guy talking about how good you are at this game because in PRO battles ur a god? Well if youre actually good at the game MM would not be a problem. I am an ACTUAL pro and I get 80 kills in DM with uranium striker which is F2P augment as far as I know. Oh don't use hyperion use Brutus now you'd still get 50+ kills. Stop living in a fantasy. My friend started playing the game and he didn't pay a cent. Just rarely asked for which combo to buy or if this augment is good or not. He's now legend 3 with 4 Mk8 combos and maxed Brutus and Crisis. reminding you HE DIDN'T PAY A CENT nor he got lucky with containers average GS for their rank is like 2-3k. If you're testing a new combo that is weaker than your main ones you should expect worse results. logic. I told you that MM is indeed broken but using "oh look a legend with 2k GS!!! MM IS BROKEN!!!!" examples are stupid.

I love when people use these kind of examples to show how broken Methmaking is lol The guy is 4 cube rank being matched with ranks barely above him (except the brigadier). Everyone is at 3-5k GS. Is this MM being unfair or Mr. 933 purposely being a low rank mult or completely having no idea how to play the game? (I met many low ranks and they would realise that upgrading 1-2 combos and ignoring others is a good idea). Even hypothetical "perfect MM" won't fix the fact that there are mults or people with room temp IQ. This also applies to people being legend rank with 3k GS and being used as "oh no look how bad MM is!!" example meanwhile they're just multing. Oh before you say 933 GS at WO4 is normal I have 5k GS at WO3 after ONLY upgrading 1 combo and being FREE TO PLAY. Now we see others here with 3-5k GS which would make sense considering low ranks like to have 1-2 combos that they upgrade instead of just 1 always like OGs. MM has Hazelion problems everywhere but even the perfect MM fix won't help people refusing to play the game like intended

And the only Pulsars that you should care about are critting fast anyway so even if you met one without using repair kit earlier (EMP will not reset your repair cooldown) you'll use repair and hope that the enemy won't crit you again which is very likely to happen. Congrats you're stuck with your repair kit on cooldown and losing HP faster than it should be legal in this game. I have maybe 95% of all augments available in this entire game and I use different combos very often and I have 11 years of experience on top. Let me tell you Spider of the Congo KNOWS what he's talking about. He is very credible and puts a lot of important info in this forum. If both of us are saying that AP and Prot is better counter to Pulsar than EMP immunity then it's a fact lol

Never even thought about the paywall being here to prevent filler. Yeah makes sense. Also you're getting rare exotic augments and other prizes including TANKOINS THAT YOU SPENT WITH A LITTLE EXTRA so of course you're not getting it for free. Well im basically always TOP 1 with monster K/D too and im using Vampire Isida. I'm actually getting better results than the Badge of The Clown augment for Isida user that is said to be "so OP and unbeatable" or whatever. But i've never seen others come even close to my results with Vampire Isida. You shouldnt gage the augments strength just because you saw a single person do good/bad with it. or grind Badge of The Clown augments for hulls ? though Hazel might nerf them so might want to be cautious while grinding 5 million points (AP immunity + 50% prot from that turret and you're set)

JGR is by far most annoying mode. Every time I get it while pressing quick battle I instantly quit. JGR got changed because it was clearly abused like crazy so the changes we're needed. Nobody I know likes JGR mode too since its just more annoying TDM. Random players getting JGR is how it was intended and how it should be I don't see a problem here.

It's boring because you're burned out from playing the game for so long + the changes they did you don't like. No lol. I played whatever the old tanki ripoffs are called and I didn't reach WO1 because it is too boring and a single buyer can single handedly change the entire battle in an instant. Don't remember any modern matches where a single buyer can efffect the game that much. The game evolved and I evolved with it too. I like the changes they did. If I didn't like them I'd just quit. Nobody is stopping you from strategising though. I do it and I'm constantly Undisputed First in matches. I've been using Vampire + Hornet + Hyperion lately and from what i'm seeing im outperforming agent7 with his phoenix isida. That shouldn't be possible on paper. Constantly getting 40+ kills even in huge maps. 300+ FPS on HD maps. 30-70 ping Don't remember last time the game crashed. Now sure I use high-end laptop but I remember fueling up a fossil of a laptop from like 2010 and it was giving me 60-70 FPS on HD maps with low graphics. If your instruments are as bad as that laptop then talking about tanki should be the last thing on your list. Not speaking until Contracts come out and the new "upgraded" tanki fund that Marcus was talking about. Funny how you're talking about adaptation yet you can't adapt to this Well if they left because of the changes yes. If they left out of boredom they'd definitely not agree with you and new tanki would actually attract them again. How do I know that? Because I WAS this player. I had no intention of returning to this game until my friend told me about all the changes that got me interested.

this event is unironically one of the most F2P friendly events. You do missions spend 700 tankoins (that you should've saved up because of tanki fund. Buying battle pass for F2P is rarely worth it). and might get enough points to get OP Exotic augment. And more than likely enough points to get tankoin bundle so you can start chaining contract bundles for free.

I mean I am a person who started in 2013 and played in the "golden period" yes it was very fun back at that time but now if tanki reverted back to exact copy of what it was in 2015 i'd INSTANTLY LEAVE because the game is too boring and (ppl won't like it but take of nostalgia glasses) pay to win. And i'm not the only one that thinks the same way. I know many people that played tanki in this period and they all agree with me. tbh if a new player saying the game is doing great then maybe it is doing great and you don't like it just because it's not what you wanted and you're old player? who cares if u r on the losing team? Comedymaking system puts you in the losing team 99% of the time if it considers you a "reinforcement" player. And you get basically the same amount of crystals anyway.

I mean when 99% of the playerbase says your update is trash you should probably realise that something went wrong. For some reason games I play devs do listen to "everyone" and somehow everyone is satisfied. Must be magic.... They did a survey hooray finally a step in the right direction! Woops they completely ignored it and still coming up with updates that nobody asked that are horrible. Yes its impossible to please 100% but you should target to pleasing as much people as possible instead of PISSING OFF as much people as possible from your game that already has a bad reputation.

I mean Hazel likes to compare other Gacha Games to Tanki so I'll do the same with this situation. Game we'll be talking about is the greatest mobile game in history Dokkan Battle. (literally reversed tanki lol every update is better than the last one and celebrations are very rarely a fumble. hazel should steal some ideas from Dokkan). We had a banner (epic container with new augment) a bug happened where each Card (augment) on the banner had a different pull rate (NOT suppose to happen). It was only a visual glitch but the devs gave 300 stones (like 100 epic keys) as a compensation and refunded the stones people spent on the banner (imagine a visual glitch in epic conts you open 100 of them before it gets fixed you get 100 epic keys from compensation + 100 epic keys as a refund and items you pulled stay in your account). You get stones from buying but you can get a limited amount of them for free if you grind and do missions. Just like tankoins in tanki. They took it VERY seriously and did full refunds with VERY generous compensation on top. The currency is also somewhat free so you could obtain the cards for free. So if there is no compensation it would technically be legal but would be very scummy. Who i'm i kidding its tanki i should be happy they don't remove my entire garage by "accident" with country paints.
