it will not. for some reason they just try to get out of their way to screw you out of phoenix score (as if it means something in the first place and is not just a fancy way to look at your stats). thats why they give you 'unique' turrets in non arms race modes. just to scam you out of your 100 phoenix score lol and thats why skins are suddenly not allowed in non arms race modes where youre forced equipped a combo.

this is just matchmaking in a nutshell not just deathmatch mode

where is crusader excel meta slop nerf?

(Keep in mind I have ~99.5% of everything obtainable in this game) With meta slop becoming excelsior crusader + camper/excelsior, smoky/twins/vulcan, it is genuinely unbearable how unplayable MM has become. When I came back after a long break in around 2020, I thought EMP Gauss was toxic. Helios was OP, but not exactly toxic wasteland, many would argue, imo. And then misc. random augments that were powerful, but unless half of the enemy team had it, you'd just get annoyed by them and forget it by the next match or until you see a patch note. Thing is, we had 1-2 exotic augments that 1 in 100 people had, probably. Now? We have 7 extremely OP augments (just counting ones mentioned above), and then probably like 20+ of 'modern day' EMP Gauss and Helios. And how hard are they to obtain? Well, if it was 10/10 back then, now its like a 4-5. So instead of 1 in 100 people having this OP item, now its 2-4 people having this OP item in ONE TEAM. Flying hulls were already clearly (stop the copium) more OP than... Tanks, by a noticeable amount. Now, with addition of excelsior, which just is a blanket buff to a hull, floaters became x10 more OP on top, while Tanks just got what feels like cool little buff in HP. If we say the power ratio between floater and Tank is 5:1, then with excel., it's like 20:2. Now, as we mentioned above, with 2-4 people having excel. floater per team, how is anyone who doesn't want to use a single hull forever suppose to play? Excel. Mammoth/Titan is genuinely the only useable Tank right now, other excel. Tanks just feel like paper tank in the current meta, while on the side of floaters, Hoppers feels genuinely like im using some kind of hack, crusader is just gapping everything in terms of OP, and ares just feels like cheaty version of Mammoth/Titan. Hazel said 'players not dying is boring' or whatever, Repair Kit cooldown can be 5 seconds for all I care, it wont change much, unkillable meta slop floaters stay unkillable, and everything else gets destroyed by like 3 Twins balls (not even exaggerating at this point...).

a camera movement change already triggered such reactions lol (beyond pathetic not even pushing the agenda here) so yeah. my guess is they'll 'nerf' a random part by 1% and buff all the others by 500% and call it a day. Knowing them this update will come in 2030. also if hazel says he already has the nerf ready and all that then... whats the point of holding it? flying hulls are hated many both new and old players and its not hard to find said players. so if what he's saying about the nerf is true then it makes you question other things. why hold an update for the sake of holding it?

sorry wont do that again. though i hate to say this but i have to inform you that 20,980 tankoins mysteriously disappeared from my account this morning. May you add them back Oпекс Pах? ig they finally entered a MM battle for the first time since covid lol. oh our beloved players from a certain region in the east will absolutely love this. (make hovering be useable with keyboard again so i can ragebait other flying by turning the turret while driving, because for some reason it made them UNBELIEVABLY mad)

if hazel nerfs flying hulls (god forbid hopper and crusader receives the most minimal negative change you've seen) the flying hull tryhards will probably without a joke hack the nuclear codes and nuke alternativa HQ. i mean look at the sudden waves of crying the forum receives the second the SLIGHTEST change happens to any flying hull that is not just a flat buff. Or how if the nerf does happen it's NEVER mentioned in patch notes LMFAO, i dont think its a coincidence that they keep forgetting to mention any flying hull changes in patch notes. flying hulls continue being the biggest cancer this game has. give me 600 rubies but remove Mammoth XT skin from my account I dare you big boy

you know whats not boring? buffing excel/camper smoky + excel crusader (i think theyre pretty underpowered) meanwhile i'll camp with my magnum literally not moving an inch from my spawn point for an entire match and get easy 1st place and 0 damage taken.

well they clearly suck at it. and instead of listening to the playerbase (easiest way to 'give the best' for us) they just ignore everything. what about the survey they did years ago? why nothing even remotely close mentioned in the survey happened? where are more surveys to potentially test community reaction about an upcoming feature? like "Would you be satisfied about a throwable explosive?" (hinting at grenades, in the world where devs only have a primitive sketch on a whiteboard in their office) and the answers would be from very satisfied to very dissatisfied. and if the answers are clearly negative just dont waste time developing grenades and instantly scrapping the concept etc. etc. im sure as a lead developer he gets well compensated with dealing with such pain. there is a difference between positive feedback on update you like and BiomeGPT spamming the same 1 out of 3 sentences under every forum topic related to developers imaginable. Same applies to negative feedback of course. (off topic but i find it really funny how that guy praises the devs constantly while the i remember getting him in MM and he was exploiting the isida/dictator/mechanic thing or whatever that was confirmed to be a 'legal' grey line in the game at the time. which even led to a kick from battle by mod) one of those 'leave it as it is, just in case the other option is even worse'. it's been around a year at this point. as someone who loved using isida i am very happy with current isida i play TDM every battle to the point where i get caught off guard when i see a flag capped or something, i could not care less about the team performance since i already 100% the game years ago and play only for fun. and even i notice that on average 50% of people in MM are either doing sub 5 IQ plays or AFK-ing lol

a lot of augments are just powercrept versions of previous ones actually lol (mostly with more damage or same stats with extra effects) tho at this point there i say it would be healthier if they added MC Excel to the huge list and got all cheeky and funny and used it as an excuse to not put it in passes/events

at this point they can add a billion more filler rewards and it would not matter because realistically an average player is not getting anything useful from keys in a realistic timeframe anyway. might as well add a billion more paints and call it a day

Sorry to disappoint you but after around 2016 the game went down exponentially. the bots are hated by everyone and devs refuse to give them even a slightest path finding upgrade (it's surprising how you only mentioned kamikadze bot juggernaut but not the constant pushing and blocking of bots) for years now. and even after you stop getting bots at the end of the game, you'll still be fighting the same 2-4 hyper specific combos and if you dont have access to one of the combos then you might as well quit the game because it'll be playable only in theory. the game now is just a casino. and the HOUSE ALWAYS WINS. you will not be enjoying the game very soon unless you get extremely lucky or spend a bunch of money and get moderately lucky. oh and pro battles are dead so there is no escape. (they also could not care less about anyone's feedback, you'll see people saying that devs only take feedback that brings them money but even that is not true. the updates and 'celebrations' in this game makes it feel like youre stuck in a time loop because nothing changes. even the smallest details stay identical)

you mean ares being as agile as viking or something while being a heavy hull is not a bad thing?

people get made fun of because they try to flex the coin paint now imagine what would happen if we released this biohazard into the wilderness of tanki online. you know what? It would be even better if was exclusive to TANKI ONLINE DISCORD mods

WEEK 4 (I think) of Happening Clock staying on Nothing because nothing ever happens
