Well non-stop druggers are very annoying and well kits aren't really helping with that so yea problem lol. I don't mind when people drug to get a flag or finish off a 50 flag battle or something but then people start drugging from the start of a battle well to me that is just stupid lol.

Mines can be useful, and fun to play with to. Sometimes when you glitch, you can go through a crystal or powerup without picking it up, just press 5. Also, laying a mine in midair will cause it to attach itself to the nearest surface below you, maybe useful for sniping?(Somewhere like madness CTF?) Laying a mine while on top of a enemy will blow him up, useful if you got a high vantage point...(Jump on him)I don't know if this ever happened before, but if you happen to glitch into a goldbox, maybe try mining it?(If you have the time to carefully lay mines around it, whoever's trying to pick it up will blow up right before he picks the goldbox up) :)

2. Find battles where your rank is the highest or where your rank isn't the lowest.

if everyone does that, there would be a battle for every rank.

 

There's one more powerup that could be added to the game, something associated with reload time.

For last 2-3 days, İ saw too much druggers. Old times, İ see druggers every 2 3 match, one or two player. But now, i see drugger every battle, 2 or 3 and low or high ranks. This players much as much as ants! Too much!

Okay, not powerfull players. Moreover weak players. Old druggers more good then this players. But there are too much. Old times(ago then 3 day) i see a bit powerfull druggers but now too much novice drugger. What doing?...

[williew 1,999]

Everyone received supplies from the contest of supporting clans. Once there start someone with drugging, they have enough supplies to do the same thing. After this happened almost everyone will use some supplies to help their team to win the match.

 

Wait a few days and it's over :)

[kayitsiz 621]

aaah good :)

thanks

[pizzaslad 471]

Yup. From the Clan Championships, a lot of people have received 100's of each supply. I used some of mine. I'll save them for a rainy or really sunny day.

Power-ups should definitely get nerfed a little bit, as some players have mentioned before, or at least double armor forcing heavy druggers to be more cautious instead of having them charging like rams and bulls straight on. A few minutes ago i found myself in a ridiculous situation defending a flag where a drugged Viking (with Rico and wearing Prodigy paint) tripped two mines, was hit twice by a Rico and got unload on all the charge of my Mk2 Freeze and still managed to destroy my Mk2 Mammoth with Spark paint and get away with the flag, not to mention that when i was respawning i noticed other three of his teammates fully drugged following him close by; a desperate situation even for the most skilled player that i'm not!

[trombone_ftw 734]

Life would be so much better if only two drugs were allowed at a time (excluding mines). So for example, you can use Double Armor and N20, but you can't use Double Armor N20 and Double Power at once. This including health packs, so if you're using Double Power and N20, you can't use a health. But you can still lay mines.

[Vettefan22 145]

^ Scratch that, it's too complicated. Just please please make Pro Battles free.

[tommybau 1,033]

well, i would like to share my opinion and start a mature discussion about supplies and the quality of the game, atleast now and at my rank.

 

I badly have to say that actually most (in not all) games have a high number of supplies users, and most of them are chronical and waste a lot of them even in stupid situation, like shaft using nitroes, player placing 10's of mines and then flipping and self, players who still continue to use them after everyone on the opposite team has already left.

i cant manage to find a decent game to play whitout having to waste mine.

 

This situation got this worse after the introduction of discounted supplies, know to the public as supplies kits. a player can buy now x5 the amount he could buy before, and is encouraged to use a lot of them.

 

it got even worse after the starserie tournament, when everyone got a load of supplies even if they did not watched the match. i still have to figure why i got like 500 of each and even more nitroes even if i watched 3 games and should have got like 300.

 

I see that in the development plans the staff have planned a way to moderate the use of supplies by the players. i think we need to get this moderation system as fast as possible active because the game is no more funny to play for most of the players that cant or just dont want to buy supplies. games, atleast as i see now, are winned not by the most skilled and team working team, but by the team that uses more supplies. you can have the best players of the top league, but they cant beat a team of noobs where 5 out of 10 players drug chronically.

 

A way to moderate the supplies could be like the one i suggest in this topic of the suggestion section: http://en.tankiforum.com/index.php?showtopic=218107

 

And no, dont say to go play pro battles. i checked all the servers and i did not manage to fund a single playable battle. no ones make them, even because they are too pricey. here there is another suggestion to solve this trouble: http://en.tankiforum.com/index.php?showtopic=218106

 

I would like every member of the english community who readed this to say his opinion below and discuss this topic whitout spamming and creating flame.

 

Ps: i say this as a semi-buyer, i have the best equipment for my rank and i could purchase 1000's of supplies, not as a noob who cant buy them and comes to cry to the forum.

 

PPs: sorry for my bad english, i'm not native speaker, i'm italian.

[trombone_ftw 734]

^ Cool! I want to learn Italian :lol:

 

But I completely agree! I try not to drug... and I don't want to drug... but I am already nearly out of drugs from the StarSeries tournament glitch. Why? Because there are soo many druggers, and a lot of them make me pretty mad. So, I was pretty much forced to counter-drug all of my drugs against these noobs that can't play without them.

 

Tanki, we need a solution NOW!

[Superlative 500]

There isn't much to be feared on the repeated use of drugs. The developers have announced that they shall release the new anti-drug cooldown system, which limits the usage of drugs.

[trombone_ftw 734]

I know this now, and I am ecstatic

[Thekillerpenguin 1,731]

The anti-drug cooldown system I eagerly await, but it's pretty slow. It shouldn't be that hard, but then again I'm not that familiar with advanced programming.

[WGNpro74 19]

I know what you mean, I was playing a good game and suddenly a 2 druggers come, destroy all of your people and take your flag =( Each game is ruined by druggers so get rid of all supplies besides Mines and Nitro

[trombone_ftw 734]

The update can't come fast enough..

[tommybau 1,033]

i just hope that this update does not make peoples who were using supplies rationally costantly use them a bit by a bit. but yes, this update will remove the chronical druggers trouble.

[trombone_ftw 734]

^ Oh no! Someone is using Double Armor non-stop! Call the drug police!
