Dictator GT looks good, would be cool if you equipped trickster drone with it, there would be rocket thrust at the back.

Well what I'm saying is these any hit from these jammer aug turrets, other status effects need rare critical hits. It would help your battle score by helping team mates to win the game in the end. Cause the constant jamming is pretty deadly with turrets that fire very often, and I thought why not have un-jam with team mates who have jammer augments.

I thought they would restore twins critical chance % for all twins augments except pulsar. I don't think that was fair to hurt twins but by doing a brute force critical chance % reduction just to nerf twins pulsar a bit was not fair. It is sort of funny how these patches affect trends out on the battlefield, I see these turret use trends (fads). I am glad I have 50% for all turret protection modules, it took me a lot of work to get my garage to the max level.

Hello, I was thinking the other day about the jammer augment:. -Team allies with jammer augments could shoot you (or other team mates who are jammed) and that would >>un-jam<< ; especially useful for long jam status times and I thought could be an added feature. This would be useful with the excessive jamming these days with some jammer augment turrets. Supply costs for drones have went up and jammer sure ruins it for everyone. Surprised if no one brought this up before, I just thought it would be neat to see. Thanks for considering...

Oh well at least we get something this ultra weekend; more a filler event till the upcoming 14th Tanki Bday at start of June. Any idea when BOTS will be introduced? But BOTS will be more for low rank trainer battles I guess. I rather prefer real players at legend ranks to make it more interesting. Would be interesting if the BOTS have neural nets or learning heuristics; be interesting to see how they evolve..... that could be a new even in the future BOT event with some tough AI.

I didn't realize this, fair is fair right? Maybe they got mixed up with Hyper speed (has critical hits enabled) and Hyper space (has critical hits removed). It would be funny if they made a rail augment that gave more damage in reverse up close lots of damage and long range less. I sure notice in some games hyperspeed rail campers get crazy KDR; your lucky if you have 50% armadillo even that you barely live..heh

Sadly you are probably right TargetXAcquired... but the ideas for this game has potential....

Ya, my laptop ASUS TUF A15 2021 can handle those remastered maps but it overheats abit 80-90C as oppose to 70-80C for regular maps. I love the look of those remastered maps just hate seeing my laptop overheat. Sometimes I regret I got a laptop a desktop would have been better for cooling, but I bought it during the gpu shortage times back in 2021. I have an RTX 3060 and now the 4060s are out so they will drop in price. I'm not sure how a cheaper Nvidia 1650 does with these remastered maps, I think they could handle 60fps.... I am get 165fps but it drops down on these maps usually but not below 60fps...so it works just overheats a bit. Also I would suggest looking at google chrome or opera gx browsers for this game; I found firefox and ms edge don't work as well. Thanks for suggestive these ideas to at least have an option to stress out your cpu/gpu less.

Ya I think a good idea there CortolMaltese have a chatgpt tanki and they should look into crobots old tank robot sim game for AI ideas. I'm not sure how advance these bots will be for driving around. It could take 1-2 years to develop some semi-decent AI for this game. I wonder if anyone has tried using a CAM and some computer vision software... opencl and tried to make there client into a bot; I know for other games some people do this. I guess at lower ranks it good for trainer battles; but I really like real players in legend games....makes it interesting.... or it will get boring if most players are bots.

Ya congrats on getting that shaft Incendiary sight; I checked the wiki augments and Shaft fire raises temp by 0.5 but compared to smoky fire is 0.4, that is good to know little better. I don't seem to get anything that good with these weekend ultra containers; the best is like 25k crys. I kind of wish Upgrades were today and then garage sales; worried I might spend too much on supplies vs upgrades.

Thats a good idea for improving status rail.... its nice rail cryo is better now... I just use rail jammer or freeze lately or scout... Piercing status is good....

They ruined Scorpion by making the reload too long, feel like I wasted so many crystals to upgrade it and hardly ever use it anymore. Ohya and rico's helios too... just played after months of not using... wow after you shoot... the reload is so long... it is bad now....

I just thought of an idea for thunder or perhaps gauss.... a tesla pulsar round.... you shoot 1 enemy tank near a group... then it will zap for 1-3 times from the tank you shot hit. to the other nearby enemy tanks. Maf is right sounds like hyperspeed thunder. I wonder what a rapid fire scorp would be like, it sure has been nerfed haven't used scorp in a few months now.

That doesn't make sense for mechanic drone you still need batteries, I think all batteries will be eliminated in the game. So cryo rail any shot will freeze now, wow... what about rail incend? Even though batteries are removed now supply increase fro drones by 1? You all think we are better off in the end with drone operating costs slight supplies increase vs batteries system? I guess will we find out, I hope we get our compensation soon so we can get use to the transition. I thought hammer assault was going to get nerfed, guess maybe next patch. Now that there is no fire buring with Pulsar? Wish they return the critical chance back up with twins a tiny bit, seems useless now. Drones: Supplies consumption So for Trickster, Booster, and Defender it will now take 5 supplies each time you use? Meanwhile CRISIS or HYPERION only takes 3 supplies per use? Sort of sucks in my opinion but I guess without paying for batteries that extra crys can be used to buy supplies.

That would be a neat idea; alternative juggernaut models (rather than terminator turret) with different terminator models combos. Rail-Striker Terminator, or like Vulcan BOUNCY - AP and TESLA PULSAR..heh..

Ya, I agree that would be good but I doubt they will do this. When I first started playing I thought why don't they do this, cause back then I had such few supplies at low ranks. Now I have like 10k plus supplies...but wiser to be economical with supplies I still try to get supplies on the battlefield. I try to leave speed for big tanks to help the team..

I am concerned with this star change, but we will see how it goes soon. I like to play 1-3 battles daily since I have to watch my playtime daily cause I have other things to do. 15 mins per battle is sort of long, someways good and bad.

Or just make it simple "TANKI" thats it. Note of interest: https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Tankie#:~:text=More generally%2C a tankie is,rhetoric is largely performative.'" Tankie means in favor of militant opposition to capitalism, heh...wierd..

I wonder if they will make a LInux and MacOS Game Client; but I just use Google Chrome (seems better than Firefox and MS Edge). It depends on your computer system and monitor refresh rate. I get 165 fps; what I did is in SETTINGS>GRAPHICS I use LOW RESOLUTION instead of HIGH. But I could use HIGH but with 60fps.... one problem if over do the settings you can overheat your computer system. Make sure hardware acceleration is on.... in chrome there is 2 things to check out...on address bar... chrome:\\gpu and chrome:\\flags Can't remember all the settings but just google search, and go into chrome://flags.... I think you could optimize in Edge and Firefox but not familiar with those browsers. I switched from Windows 11 to Ubuntu 22.04 LTS... and Tanki seems to be the same basically but takes half the memory...like 4-5 Gigs ram but with Win11 like 10-11 Gigs ram. Good luck...

Thanks for repeating warning about these bugs, I hope they fix it cause it is rather annoying. Especially the delay to activate supplies; so many time died because I couldn't activate armor boost, ugh. I emailed them like a year ago about the weekly container lock up bug, so annoying. Now is it Tanki Devs or html5 webgl functions glitches in some situations? I would love to know. Another recent concern is how for example the remaster maps make my laptop's fans go on and my cpu temp = 90C.... Heard that Diablo4 game is killing RTX3080Ti gpus recently. But tanki is not too heavily demanding game, that is what I like.

Will be interesting see how freeze is after these changes. I see they are gradually preparing for the drones to be removed. **Any idea what date we will get compensation? Thanks.

One other thing is to make sure in Windows for display settings that you use the dedicated gpu over the integrated gpu. For example for my monitor I have to make sure I am using my Nividia RTX 3060 gpu rather than the AMD Radeon igpu. That right there will improve FPS for high settings. I found google chrome browser works well with tanki. I play at 1440p at 165hz (165fps) now and it works.

So the removed drones abilities will be released in the future as hull augments eh? Will we be able to have Hull Status augments plus these new ex-drone hull augments? Like for example I could have a miner hull augment and AP Hull immunity at the same time? Cause nowadays we need those status hull immunities... That would be cool if we can use 1 STATUS Hull Aug and 1 Hull special abilities aug. Thanks..

I guess our tanks generate power and then use microwave power transmissions (wireless power) to our drones. They actually have this technology in real life, and have drone flying for days. I spent like 800k crystals last 30% sale just on batteries, and sort of worries me. But it sort of gets a point how much I play to deplete my battery stockpile. I just played with brutus alot and was able to save alot of batteries then got into the more advance drones. But it made me happy that they will remove them, atleast 1 good thing.
