What do you think about change of supplies system?

Give Back Our Old Drug system ! 

[Maf 32,316]

 

The update makes it impossible for organised drugging teams to "rob" a group of random players by outnumbering them with the amount of drugs they have. Now, the only way to rob a battle to get the fund is with powerful full MU m3 equipment and using good skill and organisation, which is good (unless they use mults).

Besides, drugging has now changed from a noob power-up to a complex technique that requires skill to use it efficiently.

I'm on this forum hoping the developers read this:  I would pay for this game to have it like it was, but now it seems like as a player I am limited.  When I was playing in lower ranks there were tanks that used supplies continuously they didn't call it drugging - it was just a part of the game.  Now there just seems to be more people complaining about it and how it isn't fair.

 

Sounds like to me the "anti-druggers" want a free game where everybody is equal.  Yeah, I used supplies.  Yes I stockpiled them.  I normally used a wasp or a hornet hull and the supplies helped me last longer in a battle.  I also used a black paint job and worked to get behind enemy lines in team games....  Tanki gave me the crystals that purchased the supplies, so how exactly was I doing anything that was wrong or illegal in the rules of the game?  Those same supplies were available to everyone.  And the wide use the term "druggers" seems a lot like sour grapes to me.  The supplies I used never made me invincible either, like some of you make it out to be.

 

Unless you've played me in a match, you don't know about my style of play - how much I played in a week, or how much $$$ I spent on it, or even how skilled I am.  

 

I'm sure some friends can confirm too, I had a stockpile of supplies and I didn't go after the drop boxes because I didn't need them.  But restricting supply use after years of gameplay where they were freely allowed seems to be a bad business decision.  I suspect things will change back over time because I think this will snowball on the developers.

 

What will the next thing be?  Maybe make all the tanks the same speed?  Everybody gets downgraded to an M1?  No camoflauge or paint schemes?  Eliminate the railgun because it's too powerful? Limit free playtime to so many hours a day?  How balanced should the game have to be so, "the other players don't suffer"?  Suffer - really?  Suffering seems a little dramatic doesn't it?

 

Nevertheless the developers gave you some more equality, I hope you enjoy it.

 

 

well the aim of the game is to make everybody enjoy. suffer is the term for it... and it will stay that way. people who buy are meant to have the slight advantage but not so bad to make the game unbalanced. this i s what tanki did... and i figure they wont be changing it for a LONG LONG time. 

also game is meant to be dynamic, do u think that all m1s or all mammys is going to keep everyone playing it?? no. it won't. i have heard my frends personally tell me they dont like the game bcuz of d druggers and are considering leaving it. now druggers might still be there but not so bad to overturn the whole game upside down. now everybody can play and enjoy... causing the non buyers to invest later on. mainly nonbuyers consist of children who cant buy with parents money or freeloaders. once they grow up, if they still love the game, they will actually use up their money to continue to prosper in this game world. if they lose interest in it, they will probably forget about it in the future. 

according to my opinion, my answer to your question on how much more balanced the game should be, my ans is right now. now the game is perfect for buyers and non buyers allowing everyone to enjoy. 

we are not the only ones who should enjoy, u should too. not our fault that u dont have the skills required to compute with the rest.

us anti-druggers want the game equal. we want it balanced. and about invincible?? PLEASE! most of us low rankers dont have the dough to buy all those drugs to survive. i once was in a battle 6 months or so ago where only 1 mammy thunder was taking us all on with drugs while all we could do is run away. this is why skills count, when u are playing as drugged against all non druggers (mainly at low ranks, causing them to give up on the game), u sometimes ARE invincible. thats why tanki had to change this.

true. only dont agree about the powerups requiring skill thing (at least not too much of it). when facing rail turn on shield. when facing mammy take a mammy ur self and double power. rest all drugs should be activated as soon as possible. i think this is all thats required

Yeah, they wanted the new drug system to require skill, but they only made it more annoying and difficult to use...

they did this probably because of gold boxes. why would you drug for a gold all you need is dbl armor and a health ready.also  no more protecting where it drops with mines! its a very good reason. if you use mines no health. if you use health no mines.so thats it for GB's. if you use dbl power no more dbl armor. if you use dbl armor no more nitro or dbl power. its timed so nobody can be a freaking beast like nobodies business. i don't even care for supplies/drugs anymore. They were ruining tanki. im very glad they changed it.
