That's the thing. You can cry for a year as long as the game generated income it's great in developers eyes. Why? BECAUSE EVERY GAME IS MADE FOR CREATORS TO GET MONEY. As long as players spent they won't do anything about it. This is the truth time to wake up. To track crystals players spent for drones and then refund every one of them you need completely different tracking system that is created to track drone crystals on purpose. Too much work for something so useless. They probably did their average calculations with sales and stuff and added average amount of crystals YOU EARN IN BATTLE with that drone. So technically F2Ps upgrading on sales is what bringing the refund cost down. gap gap There was a guy who said that nerfing/buffing stuff is fraudulent activity but i can't find the quote (prob deleted lol). It's not fraudulent as long as it's in the rules or another place where they get legal cover. It is public knowledge that stuff gets nerfed/buffed almost every friday. So while buying X turret you should keep in mind that X turret WILL AT SOME POINT get nerfed/buffed. I have absolutely no problem with it.

So we removed drones to make "the game more simple" but then we RE-ADD THE SAME ITEMS in the form of AUGMENTS? This is the biggest Bruh moment in history. Also you just mentioned how OP it's going to be when you pair Miner with Saboteur. Or Lifeguard + camping. You just made the game MORE COMPLICATED to squeeze a couple of bucks

Well you see there are people who have MAX drone thats going to be removed but don't have MAX GARAGE because you see having MAX GARAGE is a little harder than having a couple of MAXED DRONES. Just saying. Compensation is going to be ONLY CRYSTALS why? Because 1. Drones only cost crystals. 2. There is no tracking system that would show you if you spent tankoins for your drones. 3. If you bought crystals for tankoins you deserve 1 crystal. 4. It literally says "CRYSTALS FOR DRONES" in the thumbnail. I have max garage so i would love for them to randomly drop a skin container per drone but let's be realistic and stop pretending like its going to be something more than crystals.

Hazel about to introduce 9000 toxic Ultra Augments this weekend!

Just a coincidence you got banned in that time. I met Big Daddy Hazel and we talked about balance for 15 minutes straight (i almost convinced him Crisis with 2 modes at once and Fire effect Freeze was a good idea) Also told him how "flying monkeys are way too OP" and no ban but it was very fun to have a talk with him about various topics. Don't blame Hazel for who see anything above 2 year old language as insults.

Keep in mind my Supplies/hour calculations were made with the player USING ABSOLUTELY AS MANY SUPPLIES AS POSSIBLE without dying so no time is wasted on respawns etc. the numbers are very unrealistic. Though Hyperion's 2k per hour is not that far away from reality. It's probably like 1.3k for your average Joe. I recommend you using Defender/Trickster and seeing how your supplies are doing. If your armour/speed stays at around the same number you can use Hyperion with confidence. By Crisis switches i mean... Example: You're using MAXIMUM SPEED (+70% Speed instead of 30% you get from normal speed boost) mode then you see someone is about to shoot you so you switch to MAXIMUM ARMOUR mode. Your MAXIMUM SPEED gets removed and you're now using MAXIMUM ARMOUR (Triple armour). Because with Crisis you can ONLY USE ONE MODE AT THE TIME. You can't use MAXIMUM SPEED and MAXIMUM ARMOUR at the same time. Another Example: You're using Shaft and Titan with Crisis MAXIMUM ARMOUR mode you're sniping and you see an enemy before you shoot at him you switch to MAXIMUM DAMAGE (Triple Damage) then after you kill your enemy you switch to MAXIMUM ARMOUR again. That what switching with Crisis means.

If you switch to MAXIMUM DAMAGE it'll take away 3 double damage (but will not touch repair, armour etc.) If you switch to MAXIMUM SPEED it'll take away 3 speed boost (but will not touch double damage, armour etc.) At Level 20 you can switch Crisis modes every 0.5 seconds (not recommended even if you had infinite supplies) The only thing Crisis consumes automatically is batteries at a rate 1/min. These are the drones that consume the most supplies (in order) Undisputed 1st when using its "full potential": Crisis (You can spend up to 22,320 + 60 battery supplies IN JUST ONE HOUR) 1st place not by a long shot if you use "Supply saving mode": Crisis (How many supplies you spend depends on how many switches you do) Close 2nd: Hyperion (You can spend up to 2160 + 60 battery supplies per HOUR) Places 3-7: Mechanic, Defender, Booster, Trickster, Saboteur. (You can spend up to 840 supplies + 60 battery per HOUR) 8th place: Brutus. (You can spend up to 600 supplies per HOUR) you can read more here ---> https://en.tankiwiki.com/Drones *my math can be a little off because im tired lol

I was playing POLY CP and sometimes Sandbox XP/BP 24/7 in 2015-2020ish. Now i just don't see it as a fun mode that gives fast XP because ranking up is the only thing i can do at this point. Back in the day it was fun and fast Rank up + CRY nowadays i heard hopper is a thing in XP/BP so the last thing im doing is playing XP/BP. I do play OG XP/BP events when they come as a weekend mode all the time though.

Trust me 10 year olds nowadays know more about female bodies than you and i combined. Jokes on you i am an introvert causing chaos on the internet for fun. finally you said something good.

If you play a computer game all day as an adult then a woman on a loading screen should be the least of your worries . Also the second i join the match i forget the screen existed. I just don't pay attention to it like everybody... I know crazy. Bro turned Game art into a whole ahh existential crisis. Like i said i saw a lot of women in tight clothing when i was learning to draw. I was not attracted to them in any way. Is this because im asexual? Probably not. Also they were REAL WOMEN not drawn by someone in Hazel's basement. ok

The problem is that 99% of Paladin users we're braindead buyers who just have no skill that wanted to win ASAP. The amount of "paladinians" I made rage quit in my career with Hunter because of me completely destroying them when their OD is on is way too much. Also. Have you seen a big """"pro"""" buyer not use Paladin or Ares (back when its OD was way too OP)? The most OP hull OD finally got nerfed and of course every buyer in the world now starts crying because there is no Hopper 2.0 OD for capture modes. Paladin should have 150HP/sec heal and jammer effect thats it. Supporting hull just LIKE INTENDED and not a terminator that destroys Godmode_ON in 5 seconds. Look I like using Scorpion but im absolutely okay with it being unusable and... ...this is the reason why. 2 legal hacks gone (paladin, scorpion) i see this as an absolute win.

My goatttttttt ikari found about existance of forum lets go *Mr. ikari is my tanki friend. *This is not a provocation act. *Mr. ikari was not insulted or provoked by this picture.

Sorry kind sir.

Ofc you do. How dare there exist a drawing of a woman with bra and abs! Grrrr!! As an adult i find it very inappropriate too! ITS JUST A LOADING SCREEN ART DUDE. They teach about human body when you're what 12? 13? And they teach about NAKED ONES (OH MY GOD) not a guy/woman with clothes. As an artist i looked at women/men wearing very tight-clothing a lot while learning to draw. Trust me it did not traumatize or destroyed me as a 13-14 year old. Again. It's just a woman with a bra. A normal looking bra. If that's what you see as borderline NSFW then just leave the internet.

Dude relax. I would call tanki a teenage+ game

Aight. About time Gauss get's some love i guess.... Firebird/Freeze changes are interesting. Oh look! Only 50000 things left to do till you make Twins Pulsar not beyond OP! Good job! 400 damage if your enemy is 1m from the bomb is not good. Increasing 400 damage zone by 5 meters will not make it usable lol.

1. Or maybe i got lucky like 99% of the players (from what it seems like) and just didn't encounter any hackers in the last couple of years. I play end-game matches so it makes sense. 2. Unbalanced =/= Rigged. I played a game that was actually rigged for you to lose and spend money and trust me its way worse than anything tanki's MM could come up with. 3. Bringing this into a discussion about the game instantly proves that youre bias. Or have no idea about how the game works. Or youre... well. Braindead. Oh no my turret that i DIDN'T PAY A CENT got nerfed what a scam! It's like there's a balancing update every friday for YEARS that nerfs/buffs stuff... Hmm.... Everyone knows that they nerf/buff everything all the time. You pay for BMW knowing it might turn into Lada 5 weeks later or it could turn into a lightspeed spaceship. If you don't know what youre buying then don't buy it. 11. It's like... *cough* *cough* you need new PC. Parkour is also known as portal to alternative universe of Tanki Online. You'll find most random and weird sh*t possible in there. A hacker flying is the least of my concerns when im doing parkour. Also who cares if he's hacking? Its a parkour match. You get nothing, he gets nothing. Don't like hackers in useless parkour battles? Create your own private parkour. Simple. *That's ignoring the fact that tanki devs turned off anti-cheat in PARKOUR BATTLES ON PURPOSE.

1. Last time I saw a hacker in tanki was... 2020... No lagging is not hacking buddy. 2. I see you like to talk much. How about you expose the evil scientist Hazel and show us how rigged MM really is!!! (Unbalanced is not rigged) 3. Scam (a dishonest or illegal plan or activity, esp. one for making money) I see nothing illegal about a digital box in a tank game with somewhat public rates that we're proven to be correct (through countless ULTRA CONTAINER openings.) Also who's forcing you to buy something? 4. Everything is expensive. Welcome to real life bud. Also I (buyer) should be the one complaining about it but even I know higher prices = less P2W so its a double edged sword. 5-10. I agree. Woah. 11. I used 6 year old laptop and got 80-120 FPS in maps and 60-70ish FPS in HD maps. What lag? There is no excuse lol 12. Absolutely. 15. You also think 5G rots your brain? Just asking... I got 4 exotics in 2 years from FREE mission ultra containers. It's ran-dom. R-A-N-D-O-M. LUCK. YOU NEED LUCK. WEEE WOO WEE WOOO!!! DAILY REMINDER

It was a thing. And to say it was OP.... Lol. You either had heat immunity or youre dead. Do you think heating vulcan burning another tanks but not yours is not OP? It was by far the most annoying thing too nothing comes close even now. Also vulcan can be paired with flying hulls turning into what i like to call "Vulcan Bot" conbo aka AUTOPILOT LITERALLY AUTOPILOT WITH AIMBOT. Do you like getting constantly killed by a guy using AIMBOT because you dont have heat immunity?

There are no bots in tanki made by players. I mean im not spending my life savings just to fill tank game with dumb tanks to be able to win lol. There are no bots made by tanki. don't believe me? Turn of your internet connection and look what happens with another tanks. https://www.google.com/search?client=opera-gx&q=how+to+know+if+there+are+bots+in+online+game&sourceid=opera&ie=UTF-8&oe=UTF-8 https://www.google.com/search?client=opera-gx&q=how+to+know+if+there+are+bots+in+online+game&sourceid=opera&ie=UTF-8&oe=UTF-8 https://www.google.com/search?client=opera-gx&q=how+to+know+if+there+are+bots+in+online+game&sourceid=opera&ie=UTF-8&oe=UTF-8 here i helped you. These tanki bot topics are so dumb...

WASP OD - BEYOND DEAD SCORPION - BEYOND DEAD?????? And barely useable with Crisis damage (tornado not included) STRIKER AP/STUN - USELESS. Not complaining though. 2 more augments i don't have to worry about. Now maybe bring old Hunter alt back? VACUUM - It does less damage on direct hit whoopy... only a nerf if you literally refuse to use vacuum the way its intended. TWINS CRIT NERF - Eh. nobody uses twins prot anyway. turbo twins will only get effected. Dead aug turns even more dead. If you think that'll nerf pulsar twins you're silly. PULSAR NERF??? - No burning is actually a big deal. Also if i understand correctly they only removed burning from striker/hammer but left burning on TWINS OF ALL THINGS???? lol. JGR SPEED BUFF - W DEFENDER BUFF - Smells like 100%+ armor crisis mode. overall less OP nonsense to worry about. all i see is a W Update even if most of the stuff i use got nerfed.

This comment made me dust of my good ol' monstrocity of a laptop from like 2015. 80-150 fps in new maps lol. can't even hear fans working. Minecraft at 2 chunks consumes more recourses than entire tanki online.

Well that would be the point of extra tier. Grinding and playing the game for hours. personally i could give couple hours a day for tanki and have fun since all i do in my free time is playing another games anyway. And if you don't want to grind, don't grind you're just missing on extra extra stuff. Yea augments make the game more interesting but what i mean is i don't mind augments being BALANCED and not braindead duplet hammer or pulsar twins level. This makes battles more balanced and way more fun than just using a braindead OP augment ( i know since i've used braindead augments and been in balanced battle a lot of times) when it comes to physics they dont touch me at all its all good for me. lag too just get better PC (lol) that wasp bug you told never happened to me so it could be a thing on your end too.

Not a fan. We already have more than enough non-sense to deal with in battles. They won't get effected. Simple as that. Let's not pretend like it's not already filled with intentional (hazel literally said it in a random V-LOG) buffs that make flying trashcans hulls way more OP than they should be. This would be just another "woopsie daisy" flying hulls got buffed update.

Correct me if im wrong but you mean challenge is good because you don't need to get out of your way to complete it you can just do your missions and be done with it also we are lucky to have a ton of augments and another non-sense. 1. I'm absolutely okay with the fact that you don't need to earn extra stars to complete challenges but now the challenges are made in mind that everyone could beat it by playing the game for 20 mins every day. My idea is "grinders" tier on a challenge that requires you to GRIND for stars (don't even talk about joke accepted i mean challenge accepted event) that would have prizes with you grinding a lot or buying stars/premium in mind. So the stuff would be like a skin container or some another item that would guarantee you'll get something new as long as you don't own 100% of the stuff in the game. We already saw that last year with SE Freeze. A skin (very valuable in the eyes of devs) was given out for 5000 stars. Even though im not a fan of that skin i loved grinding for these prizes. TL;DR New challenge tier for buyers giving them new stuff guaranteed. Win for devs. Win for players. 2. I don't know if we're lucky to have a lot of augments... I just feel like i would enjoy the game more without augments (unless they're on the level of garage augments back in the day) and EMP/AP etc. effects being locked behind ODs etc. i feel like 90%+ of the players would agree here.
