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

no but i imagine them not being high since the game is simple. my 3060 laptop can easily deal with max graphic tanki but 3060s alone cost like 300 so its out of your reach

if your budget is 300 then playing max graphics tanki will be just a dream. buy a used laptop you might reach average performance, im not even sure you can get new laptops this cheap that wont give you radiation poisoning. lowest graphics 300 should be enough if you searched hard enough and bought a used beefier laptop

lol I equipped remote explosives (after rarely playing w striker using tandem and faust brainrot and before that maining uranium of all things) and it took me whopping 2 (TWO) matches to "master" it which makes me believe that vacuum striker is not as skillful as gentlemen (who conveniently all have vacuum) make it to be. yes because an average player does have all these things at all times just to counter one random overpowered noob. im maining EMP Shaft currently and I can tell that none of the EMP Shaft users in the past year I met have a slightest idea on how to use EMP Shaft effciently. I'd like for EMP Shaft to be buffed to vacuum striker level ?

simpler doesn't mean much when optimization is pathetic ? though personally when i dust off my ancient i3 4gb RAM laptop i still can play 60 fps with medium graphics which is really impressive. obviously my current laptop is far from struggling. I think its time to update your machine or your computer is some anomaly

so by far the most overpowered "feature" that made no sense for this game got weakened. Whats the problem? it's still factually around 2 times better than tracked hull due to it's physical placement when you peek. The strafe should be nerfed by another 100% to compensate for this which should put them at a tracked hull level. a change that is A MUST but not yet enough. i see no problem also the inflated ego clowns keep bragging about their "superior" "modern" whatever else they come up with controls so im sure the nerf won't affect them at all... oh yeah... have you used tractor that is dictator hull? it's a giant and it's overdrive might as well be removed and you wouldnt notice

in the entire history of the game i took like 20 tanki screenshots. no i do not lol i just laughed at this situation once then screenshotted it and then did not care at all next time it happened. hell just play MM yourself bruh

i get only legend battles 99% of the time then randomly get WOs and 1k gs ranks for no reason in both event and non event modes

ohh the Tanki Mod's agenda to keep me down.... damn being me is hard... they weren't useless before the "nerf" since at least you can get some score out of it. Oh no you got extra 500 score for basically free and now instead of taking you 800+ hours to get phoenix now you'll only need 700+ with best case scenario. It really did not matter if people got 2000 score with bots in a match. The phoenix excuse im seeing is just stupid because this is not motivating me to grind that at all ?. And who cares if contract or a score mission gets finished 1 battle shorter? Yes they are underdeveloped. I do not care what type of game this is or how impressive of a feat it is. The bots now are literally useless filler that does MORE HARM than good by pushing and doing all the other nonsense which just makes them annoying. They dont affect the match in a positive way at all now even with major amount of copium. ON TOP OF THAT if you spend 5 seconds in the general chat you'll see both new and old players say very naughty naughty words towards bots. So the player base besides select few is not a fan of bots even when they were arguably somewhat useful. well im (legend 170+) now getting literal MASTER SERGEANTS at times in my battles so i'd like to question the rank bracket decrease. Also like I said after the bot changes the bot rank decrease is pointless because the low ranks now progress at beyond turtle speed by playing with bots but not getting the benefits of slow progress you'd usually get due to them not giving any score basically. long term? no. If the player is playing with bots he might aswell stay at the same level for eternity. that does not give player dopamine. and no dopamine = no player. Them splitting Legends and maybe Generalissimos into a separate bracket for MM alone would fix half of the problem without ruining any progression.

you know what their AI isn't smart enough for too? Literally everything! it's underdeveloped pointless feature nobody asked that just ruins the gameplay for everyone and their grandma, especially after the score nerf so now they don't even give anything by being killed we basically need new word for "Pointless" to describe bots in this game. All JGRs should be bots for that reason and your suggestion is very very bad.

I lost many screenshots like my Uranium Striker 80+ kills in DM etc. I only have 100 kills with Juggernaut after its nerf in SJGR. I used Isida + Viking to get JGR im pretty sure.

A magnum main talking about melee being overpowered.... Hmmm I sure do wonder why ? the only thing that actually needs a nerf right now is striker augments and flying hulls. based on Legend 170 grinding the Halloween mini-game experience.

what's difficult about it? all you have to do is play for absurd amount of time. it's just boring as hell and nothing more. pointless mission tab should be removed so i dont see it ever again bots now will give you nothing, do nothing but annoy and fill up a space in the match. woo hoo! instead of actually developing them they just made them an unbelievably annoying obstacle. when will there be an option to separate flying monkey from Tanks? that is way more important than bots.

the last thing this world needs is another Gacha Game. Also Tanki Online is already a cheap chinese version of Gacha Game. 1.Containers - Summons 2. You need luck for basically everything 3. Meta combos constantly changing and all overpowered stuff gets nerfed (artificial powercreep) 4. Everything is designed to milk you out of maximum amount of money. 5.

most of the community yet i've seen MULTIPLE DEMONIC SHAFTS already. So guess what? They are not changing anything lmaoooooo anchoring bias? well this mini game is factually cheap compared to how overpriced every single skin is in this game not adding the fact that its the cream of the crop type skin so... ? there are mini-games that are way more f2p friendly. participate in those. you don't go to an Apple Store to get a cheap electronics do you? it's the same here. obviously the demographic is buyers.

Well they clearly value DC skins BIG TIME and don't want them to be thing you see everywhere. This event is clearly targeted towards whales and not Joe who instead of buying a pizza bought a 400 tankoins and completed the event start to finish. I remember when these trick or treat mini-games where WAY more expensive I spent 15k tankoins just to reach 4th island but uh oh i got chained into a -15 (MINUES FIFTHTEEN) and spend 15k tankoins for LITERALLY NOTHING. Currently i spent 6,5k tankoins and I am at 9 steps away from island 4. But this time 3 gold contracts will 100% guarantee that I get there instead of getting another funny -15 back. While 5 steps for gold contract is definitely stingy i'll take that over previous Trick-or-Treats every time. Also you have 25 days to complete complete 108 steps which is around 22 gold contracts (let's say 25 gold accounting for HORRIBLE meteor luck) That means you need to get 3000 reputation points every day and you're GUARANTEED all these DC skins instead of crossing your fingers and hoping you didn't just drop 200 bucks into a campfire. From what it looks like everyone is trying to speedrun this event for some reason. Also if you don't like the new format just don't participate. simple as that.
