Let's Discuss Railgun!

[r_PHOENlX0 20]

Hey I got a question, how does Railgun damage works?

I know turrets like Smoky and Thunder have a range for Max damage and a range for Min damage, but as Railgun have no range limit for damage I got a little bit confused.

I'm asking because it will help me to choose a paint.

Railgun doesn't have a range limitation for its damage factor. You will deal the maximum damage to the enemy even if he's in the far edge of a large map. ( that's if your projectile manages to hit the target of course). Also rail can deal damage through multiple tanks if you manage to "line up" your enemies.

Yea but M4 it says 133-199 damage, thats a lot of difference and I wanted to know what factor decides if it does 133 dmg or 199 dmg.

I was listening to celine dions "just walk away", when I read your goodbye, she sayd goodbye also :D

Same railgun is now destroyed....... but they dont nerf hammer -_-

[tankpilotnathan 13]

I am not happy with this :angry:

What about parkour?

That is not us railgunners problem the twinky light hull should realize this when they equip them.

If hammer wasent here we wouldent be faceing this.

I really never liked the new guns update NOW i really am hating it.

They need to ask tanki players before doing this sort of thing.

It brings a big change to tanki.

Railers will get slimmer and slimmer.

Until they are all gone why play with rails twinky impact force when we can play with Hammer :lol: ......... :angry:

This is a destructive update they will lose some players over this i can tell you!

Like the tankerTrombone what did he say?

That is exacty right!

[tankpilotnathan 13]

And the ranks that is messed up there is a big problem.

I played with lissimos And was the best guy on the team they cant say that about me?!?!!

Ive outranked an active lissimo player if hes a noob why not keep him from joining the pro games,HUH WHY ME!

[Shedinja 1,488]

They ruined Railgun and Smoky. The ONLY FREAKIN' GUNS I USE. :angry:

"Just Walk Away"...that 's a coincedence! Whenever or where ever I hear Celine Dion I also run walk away! :P

[Thekillerpenguin 1,731]

The reduced impact force is really noticeable in combat (can't flip nearly as many people), but I find that M2 Railgun is still useful for the stats.

[Loackie 269]

Hmm, goodbye parkour? Then goodbye Tanki. trom are you trolling? I hope not, you're more educated than this

 

I am not happy with this :angry:

What about parkour? Ever seen SwiftSmoky?

That is not us railgunners problem the twinky light hull should realize this when they equip them.

If hammer wasent here we wouldent be faceing this. What does Hammer have to do with parkour?

I really never liked the new guns update NOW i really am hating it. =.=

They need to ask tanki players before doing this sort of thing. it's their game, their company, they're allowing people to play their game in hopes they will pay money. They have no obligation to ask whatsoever.

It brings a big change to tanki. lol there's this thing called creativity. there's more turrets than just rail for parkour.

Railers will get slimmer and slimmer. Oh i'm sorry the rail population is dropping from 95% to 90% boohoo

Until they are all gone why play with rails twinky impact force when we can play with Hammer :lol: ......... :angry: boo hoo 500 impact force at M3 Rail. That's STILL more than double Thunder M3's impact force and 40% more impact force than Smoky M3.

This is a destructive update they will lose some players over this i can tell you! "some" = 5 at max

Like the tankerTrombone what did he say?

That is exacty right! ...uhm, no?

 

They ruined Railgun and Smoky. The ONLY FREAKIN' GUNS I USE. :angry: They have the 2nd and 3rd highest impact for for a single shot deal w/ it. 300 impact force per 1.5 seconds is still menacing, and iirc, Rail's original impact force at M3 was about 623.

 

Me = Green, isn't it obvious?

 

tl:dr: You think Rails and Smokies have it tough? try to enjoy impact force with Thunder.

Railgun is was an essential part of parkour, you cannot argue with that :mellow:

with eight other turrets that are viable? why not rant about Ricochet?

You must not have enough experience in parkour to understand my point, so I won't waste time trying to explain it to you :)

lol k, if you insist. i didn't know parkour was "rail only"

It's not, but this update punched a huge dent in parkour.

[Loackie 269]

It's not, but this update punched a huge dent in parkour.

There's still plenty of options. Shafts and smokies can be used as auxiliary knockback, Thunder has the highest recoil ingame, Twins has consistent knockback, and Ricochet has consistent knockback AND recoil. "huge dent" iirc parkour required creativity, no?

The thing is, everyone has Railgun... you can't parkour with M0 turrets ._.

I thought this was the Tanki Online forums, my bad. :(

[ThouShallNot 963]

Use twins, its good for parkour.

[tankpilotnathan 13]

Loakie for your information hammer has nothing to do with parkour.

But if you were smarter you would realize that with the update "Hammer" came hitting the turrets also.

Then they said this because we are smart enough to hit turrets to flip them because of that update of That turret Hammer so your the guy who needs help.

Yes i hve heard of swift smokey and i love self parkour i do it all the time :D

[Loackie 269]

But if you were smarter you would realize that with the update "Hammer" came hitting the turrets also.

Hammer is far more balanced because the shots come at a spread, hitting the hull AND the turret. Could you clarify please, i just want to make sure i'm getting the main point of the post.
