Game Balance

[warmturret 5]

When will shaft be nerfed? It ruins the game for other players. Its not fun to be one shot just as you turn a corner. Why cannot shaft be as powerful as rail was at tier 1. It was a little shy of the hunters armor (100). Why devs cannot make shaft go up to 140, which is a little shy of Vikings armor? If shatfers want to one shot kill people let them waste drugs just like railers have to at tier 1! Drug usage would retain possibility for profit for the game developers, and we would all be happy.

Might I also add, that freezes "freeze effect" should be slowed down also. The power of freeze is just fine. It is slightly stronger then rico (in game, on paper they're the same), as it should be. It is the beast at close quarter, but the freeze effect is way too quick. It just stops you in your tracks almost instantaneously at M3.

 

BTW: Freeze is my next weapon to upgrade, so don't think i'm biased against it.

Shaft got nerfed a a long time ago.

 

 

BYE.

[warmturret 5]

Obviously not enough...

 

And to save others from directing me to Feedback. I already did post it there too. ;)

SHAFT M3 USED TO HAVE 250 HP.

 

 

NOW IT HAS 180 HP.

 

 

Please don't say it is not balanced enough, cause it IS.

Tanki has made a big mistake with Shaft. Shaft has made some maps unplayable (ie. Tribute,Skylark,Massacre). They turn the others into static morasses of futility. Shaft has become the bain of Tanki. I realize it was created for the noob player to be able to enjoy himself without experiencing a more complex and complete style of play. Unfortunately Shaft has ruined it for the rest of us who used to enjoy more exciting games with opponents who actually moved. Since Shafts never touch a flag and are only interested in shooting somebody I wonder why they play CTF. They should wonder too.

I believe it is widely accepted that Freezes are overpowered. However I think you are right that it is not there ability to kill but their ability to freeze that is the advantage.

WOW.

 

Do I have to repeat again that Shaft got NERFED?

 

 

You don't read much, do you?

And remember Shaft is the most expensive tier 2 weapon, so it should be the most powerful one.

Yes, it can do a huge amount of damage in one go, but Shaft takes some time before it is completely loaded again.

Use that in battle (if you can't be strong, be smart), when a Shaft shoots, then go and he can't kill you immediately.

Last thing: if Shaft was as powerful as Railgun M1, why pay that amount of money to even buy Shaft?

I'm sorry stevie I did not ignore your post I discounted it's relevancy.

Shaft M3 is overpowered, that's why I'm going to buy it soon... yes just for that gun, because it can do everything.

you're like a cheater in DM highland maps.

Wasn't Railgun the most expensive tier1 weapon in the game? Did that prevent people from buying it? Plus at 140 it would still be the most powerful weapon. Hmmm....maybe the reload could be reduced to compensate for power nerf, especially since it's a more stationary weapon than rail. That would make it bearable for others. You would get shot once and at least have a chance to hide before you get hit again. Plus Hornets would be able to use Jade paint to protect themseves from being one shot.

Also since you spoke of cost, wasn't rico more expensive then freeze? That didn't prevent it from being nerfed, yet the cost remained. Freeze is just as attractive, rico costs 4k more overall. Go figure...

Railgun is for douchebags, don't buy it unless you're good at it... It's pretty difficult in use.

Stop complaining and just play the game.

 

 

It won't do you any good if you continue.
