You're arguing the semantics of paying for tanki. You're arguing tanki will suck if you have to pay for it. You're both correct.

Have you tried a new paint?

Is it because the game--for lack of a better word--is garbage? You invested the time to learn all the turrets and the hulls and protections. You invested the time to learn how all the updates will affect each tank's performance. You invested the time and energy to develop strategies and tactics to make you unbeatable on the field of battle. This was all part of the game before and you still invested What has changed...? For me, beyond everything I have posted about... It's bots whose turret is aimed 45 degrees away from you, they fire, and score a critical hit and you die. It's not lag. It's not a hardware issue. It isn't anything but dubious programming to nudge you in the direction of making a purchase.

The greatest predictor of future behavior is past behavior. Like, are you arguing with me for the sake of arguing? Or are you trying to play devil's advocate to see if you can win an undefendable position? Are you forgetting that I have over ten years of tanki history on my side to prove what will happen with classic? Same owners. Same devs. Same game. Same players. What can you possibly think will be different with that cacophony of creatures? Of course they won't use friendly monetization. What possible evidence in the past ten years of tanki history leads you to that conclusion? In fact, I'm stating here--for all to read--that they will be even MORE efficient with UNfriendly monetization now that they've had a practice run of the original tanki. The survey they took, the current successes and failures of leaching money from players, the psychology of the game itself... of COURSE they will try and maximize profits. It's literally what they are trying to do right now. Note the difference: 'Oh, are we losing players? Increase the prices of things in the shop to compensate.' versus... 'Uh oh. are we losing players? Better use player-friendly pricing to get them back...' You were correct. My original prediction still stands.

Three incorrect assumptions within five sentences. The 'suggestion' that 'monetizing the project' will use (player) 'friendly' methods. My comprehension of tanki's motives (or 'concept'). My age. Contradictory. When it 'all comes down to money', you think 'friendly methods' will rule the day? Now who is acting too young to discuss this....?

I have the same issue. Switched out keyboard twice. Same problem. Not a hardware issue.

the 'lag' is absolutely terrible. phasing into other tanks. shots through 'solid' objects. delayed crits. bot shots that are aiming in a different direction but still score direct hits. bot intelligence is crap. juggernot sucks. brutal.

a ham sandwich is better to buy than anything you'll find here.

Thank goodness this thread was pinned just for you guys to have this vital conversation.

Exactly how would someone ask a question? Is there a magical process that we're supposed to somehow know? Is there an invisible 'ask' button? Just wondering.

He's calling the system trash and using 66gs as an example. And he would be correct in doing so.

I think it's totally what they had in mind and are of the opinion that everyone will spend more money (whether to purchase that turret or in defence of that turret). No one at tanki takes a dump without thinking about how it will increase profits in some manner.

The only ones that the tanki developers have to 'please' are the owners. And they are plenty pleased with the product on your screen. They don't need to change anything. You are still here and so are the buyers. Attendance drops and they give away a few free containers or an 'apology key' and some players return. Or they release an update and some come back to see what it is. Maybe they play. Maybe they don't. As far as your idea goes... Imagine you have a choice of making the game better for the human players so they return/stay... or introducing bots instead and keeping everything the way it is... Your article is good, tho.

And again. Invisible tanks picking up crates. Status effects that don't happen. Magical bot critical hits. Thank you tanki developers for all your hard work with this new modifications to this game.

Just add it to the list of negative things.

How much time do we have...?

Can I ask the rationale with making the juggernot a bot?

Seeing as how no one has actually posted to this pinned topic in 4 months, I can only conclude that it is better to buy nothing than something.

Is it possible that the bots have become even stupider in the past couple of weeks? ...10 years.

If only there weren't ten thousand other rewards to play for--also of varying levels of meaninglessness.

Looks like someone is a little delete happy today.

And this warrants a new post: The new hull mechanics of driving are trash. Never have so few pixels stopped my 'tank' dead in its tracks.
