Tanki or Tanks online?


 Share

Recommended Posts

They are both great games in there own respects, but to say one is better then the other is a bit unfair. Whether or not a game is better then another is completely based on oneʻs tastes, but in retrospect, tanks online may be seen as much more popular as there is a much larger user base (regular users, not total). BUT, in terms of sales, tanki online might take that one, as far as I can tell by when I played tanks online.

 

Although I would like to point out a few pros and cons of both:

 

Tanki:

 

pros - Unique and creative. Users can have a high impact on game dev. Tons of more actions and explosions (yay!). Much, much, much more maps. More customizable. Easier to find friends and groups to join, that is if they have they speak the same language. More team oriented. Any computer that can run java can run this game

cons - Not having a reticle. Drug Wars (enough said). Three game modes, not as bad as Tanks, 1... but things still might still become a little monotonous. Server resets (that is unless you join an infinite long match). Game hinges on the top 15% of players for each team. New system updates FOREVER and sometimes they bug out. So... many... trolls! Riddled by hacker problem, but maybe new anti-hacker system may work out for the best. New anti-hacker system has targeted a lot of innocent people.

 

Tanks Online:

 

pros - Requires true skill to be good... and a bit of luck as well. Most users speak sam language (english). Campers are easier to get rid of. Losers still get a considerable reward. In-depth clan system and game run tournaments between clans.

cons - Huge gap between "buyers" and non-buyers (yes even greater then in this game). One life per match. ONLY 1 game mode. Not noob friendly. Windows machines only, no windows emulator can efficiently use tanks online quite yet.

 

I am pretty sure there is more I could add, but that is all for now :P Feel free to add to my list! While making this list, I wonder, why isnt there a co-op mode where real players would play against AI... that would be fun!

 

 

EDIT: Oh shoot, I just read the first message and it turns out I wrote this whole thing for nothing. Umm, just to let you know. There is another game already called tanks online and that game and this game are two huge rivals

Nice analysis none the less, good effort. I will confess you really had me going for a minute and I thought I had totally misunderstood the question. But after getting tot he bottom of your post, I see that I was correct. Not nice to confuse us community members, lol!
