Agree, but not quite in the way you are describing. You mean it rewards playing the "OBJECTIVE" which is fair enough. I will skip commenting on everything and instead will keep it short and to the point. ? Not a chance in hell of that ever happening. I refer you to the above post. I will give you hazel's answer to that one-"show me your cash" first. That would be the buyers and hazel still craps even on them. Totally agree. Camping is an art if It's done properly.

Because we know the pitfalls of the game and there are so many of them. Change the word retention to "CONDITIONING" and we have the truer version of what good ol hazel is trying to achieve with the player base, new and old players alike. You would think that. Funny how the rest of us don't see it that way. Constantly being fleeced and undermined is not funny, old players know this, newbies are clueless and are prime targets for the opex 1-2-3 gotcha. 1-Good incentive to start playing. 2-Keep it nice and simple, none of the P2W game changing crap, not just yet. 3-Once hooked make said hook out of space age (alien tech preferred) indestructible materials, this will give said hook the best possible chance to stay "HOOKED". I call it the opex 1-2-3 gotcha, but we all know the number goes way past 3. In fact I don't think the really clever people who deal with such astronomical numbers have a name for this insane number, you know, the one hazel exceeded a very long time ago to find ways to scam the player base. Let's just call this number HP-hazels prime.

Give it time. If TC takes off (big IF) they will revert back to their scam tactics, It's all they know. Give it time.

You madam are seriously missing the point. I wonder who could be to blame for all these changes----nah, got nothing.

You can now add striker and scorpion to the list. My personal opinion why this is happening-because of the augments attached to these turrets, without which the turrets would be severely underpowered. Scrap augments.

Seriously @RIDDLER_8 ---WHO CARES.

It's worse than "USELESS". Like scrapped altogether, along with trashcans. THE entire game needs reworking, from how low rankers progress through the ranks, not having the ability to add protections, being thrown into battles against players several ranks above you WITH protections (because MM is USELESS) all the way to the highly overpriced joke shop. TO gets worse with every patch they bring out.

You mean augments. Supplies are fine. It's augments that are crippling the game. If this is going to be a thing WHY are the devs going to do this, what are their motives behind this drastic change to the mechanics of the game.

To all those that gave a like to this. Stop being selfish and agreeing with this passive XP. The only players it benefits are Legends. Not sure I quite understand this. I think your saying that you can't give anything to players unless it coincides with gaining XP or spending cash, in game currency or real. If that is the case then why was this or some other version not implemented from the very beginning. Is it because you did not think of it until recently. You can't move forward in the game (ranking) unless you give something back. Regardless of your motives this passive XP is a game changer across the board and It's not a helpful one, quite the opposite. Why did you say in a recent V-log that players were gaining to much XP and ranking to quick and then offset the xtra crystals players got compared to XP with this passive XP. Give with one hand and utterly obliterate with the other. This is only a recent thing. For years they/devs said nothing and fobbed players off with bullcrap excuses as to why they did certain things. I will give you one example of their blatant lying. This example has always stuck with me because it was such a OBVIOUS lie. Back in the day when Vulcan could overheat and deal heat damage "WITHOUT" actually overheating------ they said it was a glitch. Of course it was, silly me. Anybody who believed that was mega pro dev or delusional, or a combo of both. Lets get something straight. Buyers in the main really don't care what the devs do. Whatever tactics the devs employ to make cash from their game, buyers just shrug and say, no probs. The buyers might call it free will, to buy or not to buy, but not once will they ever admit that they are addicted to spending cash (conditioned) by the game which intentionally goes to any lengths to ensure once hooked, they stay hooked. I have bought myself on many occasions throughout the years on many accounts, but when the nerf/buff cycle became a reality and they started to bring out all these status effects/augments and nerfed containers into oblivion and copied/pasted everything including the kitchen sink, then it was time to stop wasting cash on a game that gave very little for the amount they wanted. Hardcore buyers will ALWAYS buy, the devs know this. They encourage it by any and all means. I have nothing against buyers per se, I just hate the way the mechanics of the game have changed over the years, in particular the effects it has on lower ranked players.

Why have you got to give XP? Why not give reputation points instead. And no it will not effect the trophy missions which is beyond 99% of players to complete ( give or take between 2/5 years ) given the ASTRONOMICAL amount of rep points needed to do just "ONE" HULL/TURRET. This extra XP is killing my lower accounts and preventing me from collecting on completed missions. Scrap this ludicrous, nonsensical passive XP. For once in your cash driven, overpriced game give something that actually helps players to achieve something, anything without devaluing their accounts and turning a decent garage into trash. SCRAP THIS PASSIVE XP.

Utter nonsense. Just how does that work exactly if XP is not part of the equation. Almost everything in TO has been devalued except the ever increasing price hikes you employ. Gaining extra XP is not what low ranked players need. All you are doing is forcing players to spend cash to keep their garages up to speed, diabolical tactics. Wrong. I voice my opinion via posts because of the nefarious tactics employed by the devs that is destroying players accounts, my own included. If you think what they are doing is just peachy then give them the good ol ? Ahh @RIDDLER_8 ? The joys of being blissfully ignorant. Lets hope you never change @RIDDLER_8

Why are you adding XP into the gifts. Why are you making it even harder for low ranked players who DO NOT WANT any added XP as it makes their garages extremely weak. I have several accounts that are low ranked, which I will not be collecting on, nice one. Why are you doing this.

I wonder if anyone has a spare 100.000.000 cry. What a ridiculous amount to spend on 200 epics x supplies and paints.

Easy enough to answer. Whenever and whatever changes the devs make always entails making cash along the way. Whether that's enticing players to use whatever in game currency they have or to outright spend "CASH", the devs "ALWAYS" base any change within the game on "will it make them cash".

I have been saying this for a very, very, very long time now. There is not a single turret that is "UNIQUE" in this game, not anymore. By that I mean every turret can deal damage that "SHOULD" be unique to that specific turret. Augments have killed the game off, along with making every turret a copy/paste of each other. So boring and predictable. Along with being useless at what it was intended for, specifically HEALING. Trust ME implicitly when I say that the DEVS always "do something" for a reason, usually (99.99%) of the time it involves making cash. This is a bona fide FACT.

They do what they think is right for the game, meaning them. Players are a secondary concern at best ( their issues via complaints about the game are ignored ) unless they want cash, then players become their primary concern/target and scam mode is switched to it's highest setting.

TCSOTO. Well Gauss is still self destructing. It "STILL" deals no damage after self destructing, which means you have to "SELF DESTRUCT A G A I N" just to put things right. 0.5/10 It gets half a percent because I like my paint.

Totally agree. I suspect they did it to entice players to participate in TC. I will not be one of them, I no better.

Is this making the game better by giving players "MORE" XP so they rank faster, which I have pointed out many, many, many, x infinity times only makes low to mid rank players weaker with each rank they achieve. Pathetic really how anyone with a functioning brain defends anything these developers do as "improving the game". Only the thumbs up sheep would see this as a good idea. Needless to say I will not be collecting on any of these. This is another account that has now become unplayable because of all the unwanted XP I am being FORCED to acquire if I want to collect the containers. Never gonna happen. This is now 4 accounts that I will never return to because of this pathetic, useless, not wanted update.

TCSOTO. Were to begin. I know, trashcans-hated, despised, not wanted. Augments. Hated, despised, not wanted. Containers. Constantly being nerfed to yield crap for about 100 openings before "FINALLY" getting that paint of your dreams. Mobile players. Mostly kids no-lifeing who forget what the outside world looks like and turn into zombies, which is orders of magnitude above the bots/plebs in battle. ? 1 ? 0. MM I often wondered if MM could get any worse, cue the ? Events. Cash grab, simples. Upcoming Tanki fund ? followed by ? when it doesn't get past level 10 of 500 and all you have to show for your gazillion tankoins spent is speed boosts and mines. But all is not lost. All you need to do is spend a wad of ? and all will be ? and a ? of ?. Acting on players concerns regarding gameplay. ? devs. Devs replies. ? Can't see nothing wrong, not with our game. ? Say again couldn't make that out, oh well couldn't of been that important. ? Say nothing and maybe they will go away and play mine craft. And now the obligatory 64.000 dollar question. Will TO ever improve beyond bots, trashcans, augments, etc. All of these really do exist ? ? ?? just saying.

It hasn't been that "GOOD" since way back when.

I wonder if the T- fund will be another wash out.

Captain rank. This is killing it for low ranked players. Why add XP to missions. Never gonna happen. Pathetic really.

I honestly do not no were to start or what to say. ? Why do players never learn.

TO is F2P. The devs employ tactics to condition players into spending cash. They are nefarious and utterly without morals when scamming the players for cash. This is a fact. The entire game is rigged against players, F2P and buyers alike. Really. You no what, I believe you. That wasn't a compliment by the way in case my reply was lost on you, just like the screen apparently was. Ta ta.
