Fix Freeze

[r_iknat11 1]

It takes to long to thaw out after Freeze effect. This is detrimental to gameplay and serves no purpose. Please fix this minor flaw to improve the flow of the game. We all know Freeze is overpowered but for the sake of Tanki shorten the Freeze efffect.

i think the effect is just good. :) All the guns has some special effect.

[I3loodShot 3,119]

That's why the name is "freeze" .

Freeze definitely needs an improvement, this freeze effect takes ages.

And if you look at the prize, it's just to cheap for this massive effect.

 

Even an M0 freeze can slow you down for ages; having an M0 freeze will definitely be the cheapest way out for each defender in a clan war.

Yes I'm talking about high rank clan wars... the freeze might not kill anyone; but certainly helps the team.

 

It's overpowered, cheap and annoying.

I am getting bored of this kind of "that gun is over powered" threads. Everyone seems to blame other weapons and trying to increase the effect of their own prime weapon. You just need to look around and shoot the freezers far away before they get too close of you.

[splitterpoint 10,986]

Just because you are one yourself... you don't know how annoying it is to face them with a mammoth.

If you survive, the effect will leave you stuck on the tracks long enough for another enemy to finish you off.

 

Freeze was fine before the rebalance, they tried to encourage firebirds unfreeze effect by massivly increasing the freeze time.

But since almost no one uses firebird (Because freeze is better and cheaper) the freeze has even more power.

 

Freeze is better than firebird>people buy freeze instead of firebird> Freeze effect can be used 100%> people buy freeze even more.

In order to make firebird more attracting they should make it more powerfull, decrease the rank limitations, and make it cheaper.

 

That way the developers get that team spirit effect... people start burning freezed team mates to set them free.

People start buying firebird, making the freeze less annoying.

You've never faced an m3 freeze be4 have you?

[GoldRock 6,165]

I agree completely - hopefully, they alter this, or at least make Firebird more attractive as a weapons as split said :)

[Descape 16]

Splitter bravo! Freeze's "Freeze" shoudl bedowngraded like in old tanki before 123

[Mr.SV.ENS 738]

Freeze effect takes way too long

[icerugby 1,886]

I agree freezes effect should b downgraded a lot. It takes ages to wear out and it is massively powerful. With my mammy twins m2 set but without a freeze protection paint, wen I 1v1 a m3 vik freeze combo-i come out on top with like 5hp left and then another comes along and I get wiped. That's y ill get rustle at the next sale

I will try that. However the freeze effect lasts too long.

The devs made it like that. Deal with it.

1) I never thought you would say that

2) I think you are drunk.

3) If freeze froze you for ages, you would not be sitting here in the forum chating with people, you would be trying to find a firebird to unfreeze you.

What was wrong with the way it was before? No-one complained then...

EDIT: Typo

[SAHUVICKY 36]

There is only one option for developers and that is to start giving points to firebird players to unfreeze teammates .

[icerugby 1,886]

^ Lol no because then freeze will become even more op and overused cuz u wud also get points for deburning a tank

[TankCraze 8]

It does take quite a while to thaw out freeze effect ... firebirds are useful for thawing it quickly, but that's the only way you can escape it quicker. If they could do some minor adjustments to make the freeze effect last just a little bit shorter, I'm sure most of us would be happy (except the freeze users :P )

[wild001 786]

the freeze happens too quick, even a bit touch of freeze will result instant stop,

it is not like old freeze, it slowly slow u down , not instant stop

[KiwiZaphod 53]

You can hit a situation in an enemy base where you manage to kill a freeze, they respawn, come back and finish you off while you are still frozen; this does kind of mess up the gameplay in some CTF games on some maps - Crash, for example.

i miss the old freeze i have m2

[SilentShadow 104]

There have been many complaints about Freeze lately; personally I have no problem because freezing is what Freeze was designed to do, but at this rate of complaints perhaps the freeze may be lessened in a future update.

 

I myself use Freeze, it is completely and utterly an anti-drugger's weapon, it is the perfect gun, the ONLY gun for defense! :wub:

[Alklines 1,751]

it's fine. stop crying about it and kick some ass in the battle maybe?

[r_Slash1524_20 23]

why don't you say, dcrease the power of isida's healing effect or thunder's splash effect, or firebird's afterburn effect, or smoky's critical hit?

Every single weapon has a special effect that needs to be good, or nobody won't buy it.

[r_T.H.U.G0 79]

I don't agree. In the past, m2 freeze was enough to destroy an m3 mammoth if I'm not mistaken without a freeze protection paint. Now, m3 can't destroy the same mammoth m3 without a paint so the longer freeze effect is the compensation of this.
