ok if you think that ill put a 0 prot wasp without any augments and brutus drone with destroyer. if i can make protless Crystal aug smoky/Hunter brutus work then im sure this won't be a problem. i'll update this comment with the results from that combo. or i'll just forget about this topic all together and never come back here until randomly wondering into it out of boredom again just like this time. pay attention next time. when you get battles without these 4 pieces of trash you get the most balanced matches even if they're filled with OP augments. at some point you just have to point out the obvious. the problem can indeed be solved by deleting 4 hulls from the game.

Gotta make things simple for simple ppl ig... They fall onto the "Tryhard" category that I invented. Very obvious by just barely looking at their profiles. I guess it's time to be the madman himself... I have NEAR EVERYTHING. Everything is maxed. From hulls to grenades. I use a lot of combos with a lot of different augments. I played this game for 13 YEARS. I know what im talking about and I won't defend my toys just because I have them and don't want them nerfed. My best toys get nerfed? well thats just business. I don't play with Hopper/Paladin/Crusader/Ares. I ABUSE them. You cannot "play" with them. They are way too OP for such words. I also find it funny how a person here goes "Rico aug is OP" then agrees with me and calls flying hull a "CHEAT code" then suddenly makes it sound like the flying hull is nothing compared to rico aug again. (looks like the comment got deleted?) When I can instantly tell which team is winning based of not what augments both teams have but how many flying hulls a team has it makes me believe that they're indeed way bigger problem than any exotic augment. Again i'd like to remind some of you that I have 95%+ of the stuff in this game and I use it myself before making points like these. Not just analyze it from enemies/teammates. Here are some cold shower facts for tryhards. 1. Flying Monkey is indeed overpowered for NO REASON. It's "free" item. Why is it more overpowered than the supposedly Peak of the game which are Exotic Augments? The fact that like 70% of CASUAL playerbase hates these hulls says it all. Remember casual players control everything in other games. What makes you believe that Tanki is different? Eventually they'll get fed up and leave. This WILL kill tanki. Not a bad update or whatever but whatever makes casuals pissed enough to leave. 2. Vacuum Striker is nowhere near as skilled as some of you say. It took me 2 matches to go from 0 to hero with it. Sure im not the "best" with it but I am basically getting the max damage rockets 7/10 times. Vacuum augments all are overrated. MISSING your target is ALWAYS easier than a direct hit. Why is Vacuum the most "Skilled" augment when RRE is literally just a flat out harder version of Striker Vacuum since it doesn't reward you for missing? Want actual overpowered augments? Sustained Nanobot Isida (Yup. Discount Phoenix.), Magnum Destroyer (the only thing that can counter flying monkey lifeguard spam as of now.) EMP Shaft (learn how to play the game instead of relying "best on paper" augs.) Gauss Solenoid Cooling (Paired with Crisis/Booster. So you may not count it) Any Hyperspeed augment. (except rico obvs) Mortar Magnum (learn how to pl...) Bolter Thunder Faust and Tandem Striker They can be paired with anything and give you a consistent result and not rely on other overpowered stuff like the so called 'game breaking' rico augment.

Legend 125 is indeed impressive for someone who LEFT the match before even getting a Kill/Death. Yup I saw it Mr. so called "Nikman". Oh and most importantly ignoring Hypersomnia's a helpless poor player's friend request? Well wow! How rude of you. Oh what's that? You're going to delete this comment? Well nuh uh. Here is my Picture of the day. Feast your eyes on one of if not the rarest Skin Combination currently in this game.

>? i just pointed out that the augment is 'overpowered' when combined with hovering hull. which in my book is not what is considered overpowered augment. you do know i can just equip a hovering hull myself with the augment and test my theories myself before talking about it? if with tracked hull it feels like just an overpowered crystal augment and with a flying hull of any type it suddenly turns into maybe somewhat competitive augment i will not call it good augment. actual top tier toys do not need being carried like that and funny enough everyone is sleeping on actually overpowered augments rn besides like 5 people.

hazel literally called your trashcans a mistake made for mobile version that flopped (surprised) if its literally more overpowered in every way for absolutely no reason im gonna call it out just like 70% of the players in this game. you perfectly fit the definition of tryhard so obviously you defend things like that just like that jumper guy and his "skilled" vacuum striker that takes whopping 2 matches to learn how to use. considering i spent 80 bucks its not op at all. enemy hyperspeed ricos (idc if its not how its called) are not a problem at all I have prot on or not. flying monkey is. If there were a trading system i'd give you my hyperspeed rico for 50 crystals since its just trash compared to every toy i have that has around the same price tag. Hell might give you that healing augment too as a bonus. that rico aug is not OP. if they nerf it cool. if they dont cool. now talk with a wall cuz idc about this topic

well to be fair i see it as just criminally UNDERPRICED Scamoween minigames we had in the past. I'll take my slow grindy way over me spending 20k tankoins to get 1 checkpoint just to get pushed back 15 spots. FIFTHTEEN. And get literally nothing because I couldnt reach the checkpoint in time. Now for 20k rubies I got the entire minigame done with some rubies to spare. The island hopping mini-games are now targeted towards dolphins-whales instead of F2P-Whale. With way more different minigames that are actually very useful for F2P as a compensation I guess. I see no problem with the current system besides them making it guaranteed +1 instead of +1 and +2. It's to troll players by making them accidentally activate bronze instead of silver/gold. I refuse to believe any other answer. And the strategy works since Russian forum is filled with ppl accidentally completing bronze instead of gold contracts lol. And they also are rousting the hell out of some random mod. (and he plays into it instead of just deleting the comments and giving ChatGPT ahh text. wink wink nudge nudge english forum) the fact that flying hulls are not separated from normal hulls is actually criminal with the current disbalance between them. for dolphin and above players. you need like 20 Gold contracts to complete the entire minigame and 30ish days is more than enough time. its just not F2P friendly anymore simple as that. You got Sakura Coin events etc. as comp.

once again i have that rico augment and i played against it and i can confindently say that rico aug while OP is nowhere as OP as people say. that augment is not the problem. the problem is... gonna sound like a cliche but its our beloved set of flying trashcan/monkey/sausage/saucer whatever ppl call it these days set of hulls. You might aswell start to think that they have aimbot and have lifeguard by default for free since 9/10 tryhards (yes tryhards is the only word to describe them) are using lifeguard which combined with already overpowered hull which combined with already overpowered augment LIKE RICO'S creates near unkillable tryhard. No I can't hit a hull that is twice as thin as an actual hull (physical placement) that can strafe at extreme speeds (even if its a medium one). Pay attention next time and compare Rico's augment effectiveness when enemy has tracked hull (youre not finding any) and when they have flying "hull" (i get them every match. so fun.) You'll realise that what im saying is true. Or if your have the augment test it yourself.

Just like all the previous waves of augments that were added to normal conts, they will stay in legendary tier for the foreseeable future. Only thing that'll change is they'll be removed from exotic after this celebration. Of course at any time this pattern can stop so take it with a grain of salt. Though the chances of that are 1 in a million.

yes EMP shaft is indeed very underpowered augment please buff it

evil trap? you know what youre getting into and you saw the prices and the rate at which it's being completed. And if you dont well it's nobodys but your fault read what youre spending your money on next time. Its like going to a casino and then asking for my money back after losing it all. absurd.

supplies being a problem like that esp for buyer like that is crazy. The Epic Containers have to be completely revamped. The Exotic Rate should bare minimum be doubled if we're doing the "Featured" mechanic (old augment being exotic and legendary at the same time). Even without Featured old augs the rates are just CRIMINAL even if we huff copium and call tanki a Gacha Game. Legendary tier for Epics should have it's paints completely removed. Only Augments and 100k. We already have enough augments that are unusable to act as filler. They're doing the job animated paints were suppose to do. Same for Epic Tier and Uncommon. Uncommon should have Augments, Repairs and Crystals. Done. Normal Containers can stay the same and so are the 3 keys/week then. Epic containers are screaming for revamp.. Very poorly aged mechanic for a game with Tanki's gambling loop

B-b-b-b-b-but it's by far the most overpowered augment ever in the history of entire gaming ? !!!!! If i'm constantly seeing people like you and others cry about this mysterious absurdly overpowered augment and all it is is a completely dead turret being pushed to useable level i am not going to call it a good augment. Just off the top of my head looking at the latest augments i used I can confidently say that EMP, AP and Heal Shaft Sustained Nanobot Isida Destroyer Magnum Faust and Tandem Striker Hyperspeed Railgun and Thunder are miles ahead of this supposedly game breaking augment. If Hyperspeed Rico was a garage augment would I say it's insanely overpowered? YES. Sadly Hyperspeed Rico is behind a gigantic paywall and other augments that require major paywall are faaaar better. yes im sure Legend 177 that played this game since 2012 has no idea how a simple mechanic works. Look at this me and ARTREMOS has hyperspeed rico equipped. GOING ONLY FOR KILLS IN SIEGE IN A CLEARLY UNBALANCED BATTLE + rushing to the points at the last second to get the 50 points for capping and this is what we get. Match ended with 5 minutes left. Does it look like a game breaking augment to you?

imagine hyperspeed augment but with turtle level speed aim angle so bad that if you're 1 cm above/below the enemy you literally cant hit them while having range of like sustained nanobot isida. this is plasma resonator. that augment is GARBAGE. please use it instead of watching a pre-nerf youtube video and calling it a day

closer to servers or its just visual desync

(they deleted my comment lol) you can have Nasa's 91 Gbps internet and this game will still lag due to it running on ancient servers on the dark side of the moon or something. Cant rly win with this one ? As for floating junk it was literally called a mistake by the Madman Hazel himself. Says all you need to know. Why he doesnt just nerf it to the ground? Dont ask me. I can literally equip the Hack and even if someone completely rotates my hull I still get random kills while using railgun like 5/10 times. I can tell you with 100% that i do not get random kills in the same situation with actual hull. That's ignoring all the other "features" it has. I mean have you tried to hit a Hopper from a whole map distance? On tracked hulls railgun is pretty mid on the Junk it is aimbot though every turret is aimbot with that so i dont know. I mean why even bother installing hacks and risking ban when you can just equip paladin and get a bunch of hacks "legally"

uhhhh im a big buyer with a stacked account and even i can't afford to just play the game objective all the time without eventually going broke in a reasonable time frame. what this tells me is F2P players dont have "freedom" to choose what they want to do. they CAN ONLY camp or go bankrupt with supplies and deal with overpowered augments that oneshot them every 5 seconds. them nerfing mission rewards to 3 epic keys then to 1 epic key (oh wait it'll be on xmas event) is also not encouraging anyone to play offensively.

you choosing to play the game the way its intended only because "its fun" for you and not because this is the only way to play without hurting your account big in long term is just trash game design. at this point every MM match should be just TDM and rest of the modes coming back as festive anomalies at best. unless u r as stacked as Obama going to the point/flag is a masochistic behavior. the entire MM scoring system and augments need to be COMPLETELY reworked to fix this problem because we are far too deep for a simple small balance update to fix it all

yeah except that my magnum crits for 10k and my shaft oneshots or two shots everyone before they even leave their base. or how everyone is still camping so any attacker is being focused by like 5 people at all times. or how any attacking combos are so expensive to maintain that its basically pay walled. oh wait forgot the you get 5 kills worth of points for capping a flag. now which one is easier? capping a flag/ball or getting 5 kills lol. oh and what do you mean a single player with saboteur can just mine everything making it impossible to attack? oh right the nerfs to long range turrets are really great! if i didn't reach the patch notes i wouldnt even think they got changed.

Augments - Good way to keep the game fresh even if on paper they're just very small addition. The problem is that most of them are just flat out powercreeping X augment/turret instead of changing something while keeping almost the same if not the same level of power like ALTERATIONS. Augments would be a 10/10 if the power of the "heavy artillery" augments was as powerful as mid level Legendary and Legendaries being as good as Epic tier or even Garage augments. Trashcan - Literally no excuses. Horrible. Once again introducing some weird power creep (they're better than tracked hulls IN EVERY WAY for some reason?????) Unless you change the mechanics of these hulls COMPLETELY to the point where you might as well say its a different thing I honestly see 0 ways of "fixing" this problem. Overdrives - Completely fine. Maybe like 10% nerf and its good. That is if other complimentary items like augments and... trashcans. are kept in check. Auto Aim - Should just be Mobile exclusive optional feature. It helps new mobile only players so cool ig. Bots - completely undeeded. I'd rather have my waiting times trippled than play with a single bot. Absolutely no need for them. If you know you can't make them at least on the level of a BAD REAL PLAYER then why the hell are you adding them? Changing time limit - a double edged sword. It helps from tryhards going crazy with changes every 5 seconds just to counter a single person while at the same time potentially locking you out of changing just because you changed from Engineer Hunter to EMP Hunter and now theres overpowered sweat on the enemy team. I think its fine as it is. MM - Big belly laugh. Battle list worked the same as MM just with less steps.

which means a free player will sacrifice way too much while for buyers its a tap on the back. also who needs YET ANOTHER overpowered non sensical thing? People want simplicity not overcomplicating a goddamn mine in big 2024. also locking it behind legend will make legends even more overpowered compared to non-legend for absolutely no reason. gating something behind a big rank is completely dumb as seen with protections. saboteur alone is enough no need for miner.

everyone that has insider info also 99,9% has a funny thing called NDA attached to their name. I'm sure tanki lawyers made sure that if you break the NDA you'll be in more trouble than you'll ever want. so for anyone with actual info it is absolutely not worth it just to give some random info that you'll likely know in 1-2 months anyway. and if you want some info then here it is. it's an old version of the game. whoopy. what else do you need to know

i think it's pretty obvious. the moderation here makes you feel like you're talking to 10 year olds that yet to see the horrors of the internet instead of what most likely is a bunch of 20-30 year olds talking random things. Hell we know that there is a 50+ year old Lady in this forum. safe to assume this forum is being dominated by older people. If a person says something as scary as ?? or F$@# or SOB... you get the point. I dont think their comment should be edited or deleted or whatever. Yeah obviously delete the actual 5 year olds saying the N word (which is gaining insane popularity in this game all of a sudden lol) or other big no no words. Also when people give criticism without adding step by step details on how to improve X thing why are their comments getting deleted? Hell even giving out warnings? This is a forum a place where people talk with each other and not a giant Update Suggestions page. Let the deleted comments/warnings become other people agreeing/disagreeing this makes the discussion way more natural instead of robotic NPC like dialogue path. Drama in the comments? Oh boohoo let people have fun if they dont like to be the part of the drama they'd leave instead of replying back. Once again while bad on paper this creates way more human like interactions. We all love the drunk uncle arguments it's the same here. The second same drama appears the forum activity spikes. People enjoy reading all the yapping created by the drama and those who are in a drama do it with their own free will. they can leave any second. this forum at this point has more mods than normal players. also the mods comments 9/10 times are the most soulless comments ever. Like a new thing appears and it's instantly "wow so cool!", "very interesting!" etc. I get the "Good luck" on things like mini-games but the rest are completely unneeded and feels incredibly forced.

it doesn't even work if youre far enough. this is a great idea actually look we all know tanki devs are far far... far...... from what youd consider a good dev but im sure they can optimize this new (?) feature enough to where it doesnt tank your performance even if youre using low-end device

oh of course you are. let the Wise Man shine some light into your thick headed skull. the gentleman by the name of demon09 says that it would be cool if the outer unplayable parts of the map would be the actual playable parts. Now would this be a good idea? NO. these areas of the maps should be left "unplayable" because they are not intended to be playable besides parkour. while it would make for a very unique gameplay experience probably the players would quickly realise how trash the map is due to how much chaos these areas have. chaos that should be left untouched by the greasy tracks of a tanki player. look at massacre barely any chaos and how hated the map is

yeah the 3060 graphics card. max graphic tanki would probably be achieved by around a 1000$ laptop lowest 300 should be enough if i had to guess. you can just buy used iPhone for 300+ and play max graphic tanki lol my 15 Pro Max is rocking like 300+ FPS max graphics. But if youre only a laptop/pc gamer then 300 bucks should give you a playable minimum setting experience
