The Drugger Problem

[ninjastar9087 2]

TL;DR

[BillD2O 4]

It's a good bet that there are only 2 types of players that complain about 'druggers".. those with really killer tanks and M3 weapons and those that can't afford to buy anything.

 

And what about those players? Too bad for them they don't have the money to keep up with the druggers? Shouldn't everyone be able to participate with a chance of advancing, or just those with enough money? I've played with people who can't afford to buy, and its sad to see them trying hard with Hornet and Isida M0 in Lieutenant+ ranked games and getting nowhere.

 

If nobody uses drugs there's no advantage, its a game of skill. If everyone uses drugs, there's no advantage, its a game of skill. Drugs are used by bullies to steal battles.

 

No supply battles? Its a slap in the face that the developers feel the need to charge those that want to play a game of skill.

 

No Tanki without drugger money? That's BS. Here's the philosophy of another MMO (different genre, name omitted so I'm not accused of being a shill) that I believe is just as big as Tanki. Its a shame Tanki's developers don't have a similar vision, instead focusing on money:

 

In order to fund the development and continued expansion of ******, we offer a range of ethical microtransactions that allow you to distinguish yourself in the world of ****** without receiving any gameplay advantage. We are completely opposed to the concept of “pay2win”.

 

If it works for them, Tanki can do the same.

Don't you think If tanki really did care, They would do something about it?

Sup bro, remember you can take advantage of Druggers. They are drugging, every stat they have is boosted 2x or more. Their pride cover more than their brains when they have drugs on. Put a mine and with Nitro they can't slow down. I did that to a Drugger with Wasp in CTF Moon Silence. I latch mines around my flag, and the moment he touches my mine, he FLIES into the air, and flips upside down. Then I leave him and take his flag, wait for him to Self-destruct and cap it. I also lay mines around HIS flag, thus when he tries to capture my flag when i failed to protect my flag, he gets blown up when 5 meters away from his flag. Genius~

 

Furthermore, if you are in a flat place like Massacre or Sandbox, try to get Freeze. That will annoy the peanuts out of him. There are specific ways to get back at Druggers. You just need to plan FAST. You can stall him by hitting at him directly, or just to block hi mwith your tank as damage dummy. However, you should be strategic when going up against them. If you have your own drugs, then that would be a different matter. Howeer, with Druggers you've got to use your head. It becomes a sort of Psychological warfare between Druggers and Non-druggers.

If it wasn't for supplies then buyers - of guns, hulls and paints - would always win. Ban drugging and you'd have to ban upgrades too, right?

Ever since that "Supplies pack" thing came out druggers have been roaming around tanki in PACKS of 2-10.
