Update 270 — balancing of turrets and hulls

[ELIZABETH1122 337]

Thanks for giving some light to those offenses. There is indeed bullying occuring. The game is a microcosm of the real world. There are some very well-mannered players (teammates and enemies alike) in the game though. I would like to express my appreciation to them for showing a more gracious side of humanity. We can be honourable while blasting others to molten metal. :)  

I think the avenue(s) / mechanism(s) for reporting offenses should be looked at.

Thank you Spanker Tanker.

 

Indeed there are some some well mannered people on Tanki and I agree it is a reflection  on real world behavior both good, bad and indifferent.

 

We need a reporting system that is fair, free from abuse, fast and less complicated.  There will always be the occasional odd scrap between teem players caused by lack of understanding  misreading of situations but these usually disappear after a vent of frustration and after a few minutes is forgotten by both sides.  That is normal life.  It is the more psychopathic offender that I belive ought to be targeted

This self-destruct penalty update is good but developers released it without thinking about side effects. Think of it, madness was unpopular for some reason but now it will be completely untouched map as players wont play a map once they will lose half of their points playing. Half of times  i always land incorrectly or in dead hole in this map. Somehow this update should be reworked. Thanks

Yes, the self-destruct matter should be given A LOT more thought. I do not believe the technology (software) exists to do it properly. There might be just 1 or 2 ways self-destruct, but there are very many SCENARIOS in which it might be done -  and they should be considered.

No it is much easier. There is no penalty if you have 0 frags. You can not ruin other team score if you have 0 frags.

what if the mult gets 1 frag/kill and then keeps self-destructing  :mellow:

[Solid-Granit 30]

- Let it be automatic destruction, if capsize the tank

 

- In a game let there be a team captain, or best point-man and you to kick everybody.

 

- Reckon the orbit, if the enemy all goes out: starting countdown

Since the update 270, everytime i flip over and self-destruct, it reduces 5 points from me. This is really annoying because whenever I'm flipped over I have to let someone kill me in order not to lose any points and that takes about 5 minutes for someone to kill me. Please fix this  :(

epic,this is the only thing which cots points .-. Even if thats a high fund battle,because of flipping u would even get to bottom of the scoreboard.It's good,but why not make it something more like if they SD with thunder/rico,make them respawn like 2-4mins,reducing point is bad.Any suggestions please?

[SpHryfBoss 573]

So if you're top in a DM some noobs could just team up on you and keep pushing you off till you get beaten and so on. What do we do then? :mellow:

[BJBlazkowicz 20]

that new selfdestruction rule will become annoying. On one hand its good cause players will have to decide if they want to loose points by selfdestruct, but on the other hand what if someone flip me, its not my fault and i should loose points for selfdestruction ? Also imagine thunder caught in close range fight with for example freeze he cant move cause of freeze effect, and he wont be able to fight back cause if he will fire at enemy he risk splash to his own face and possible selfdestruction, so i m not sure if it will work very well.

ELIZABETH1122, unfortunately those psychopaths do exist in the game. I have encountered them. I have had "team mates" constantly try to prevent me from destroying enemy tanks. That shocked me.

And I have had team mates (using a fast tank) who let me (using a slow tank) pick up a power-ups that he/she was already heading for.

And there are some very intelligent players in the game. It is a joy to play with or against them.

changing equipment shouldn't cost 5 points

In that case, you wait to be killed by an ennemy and you go change in your garage, no penalty.

I admit this is good however i am upset about the firebird, freezer, and ricochet losing damage over range they had a little advantage for surprise attacks or keeping enemies away from others but not anymore.

If the guy is clever he can get a kill and take a lot off the team. :/ Also the thunder self-destruct is a part of the game both good and bad for thunders maybe its should be a smaller penalty like 1 or 3 points for the individual I think ots a great idea but needs to be rethought and refied. As always thanks devs.

Let people self-destruct if they want to. It is called "self"-destruct for a reason.

Just as it cannot be prevented in real life, it cannot be easily managed in virtual life.

When people self-destruct cowardly, they themselves suffer a psychological penalty

of being a coward and the possible penalty of being labelled as one.

If I am in a game where people are behaving less than satisfactorily to me, I LEAVE.

That is a practice that can produce beneficial results in real life too.

Just let people be. We can't fix people. People must fix themselves if there care to.

[Endurance 543]

Which weapon would be better Smoky M2 or Thunder M3 for this update? (Maybe in terms of OPness?)

[BenKenobiTanki 0]

Oh, also isida unfreezing should be rethought as the fact that a single freeze can hold up a convoy maybe enough for his teammates adds to the game. (Although admittedly it could mean more flags... A good thing.) I hope you're reading this cause it is worth thinking about.

[Endurance 543]

I do think that test server should have opened for everyone for this update.

[a7x_Pedro48 13,999]

The map looks good, however my gold spot is gone :(

 

 

 

 

 

 

Oh no, such a shame :( whe they did that...

 

Also, Polygon CTF is like Combe CTF now with Red Flag in Blue side and Blue flag in Red side... So Polygon CTF is dead now.

[ArcticCow 454]

[moshkinstein 142]

i am so annoyed today !!! i am absolutly angry as hell ! i have spent over £600 on micro upgradeing my m3 tanks and weapons

 

my freeze is m3 fully micro upgraded and has gone from 72 down to 68 damage ! :< and lost all range it now sucks big time

 

my twins m3 fully micro upgraded has gone from 14-16 down to 13-15 damage and has also lost alot of damage at max distance and lost the bullet speed !!!! :<

 

my m3 mammoth fully micro upgraded has lost lots of speed and gain no health , still the same at 420hp fully mu

 

the new way of doing the health kit sucks big time , it was alot better when it was slower .

 

 

i am extreamly annoyed that i have spent so much money and then they remove things i have paid for .

Tanki Developers need to read your message!

Players have invested money, if not time spent to Micro Upgrade.

 

The Developers keep on re-balancing not considering how players feel.

There should be some crystal compensation for some players like JD-STARZ-X for the inconvenience caused.
