Drugs.

exactly,full of noobs pressing buttons everywhere,but they have "skills".

 

less drugs at once,more druggers,i dont see any difference.

It's not only noobs using powerups, Chameleos. There is skill in how they are deployed, because they only last for a short period of time. If you don't understand that, I don't see how you can really understand the game or dismiss those using powerups as noobs.

 

They are a useful tactical tool for those who use fast light machines as attack vehicles against the real flood of noobs who buy big and operate as barely moving road blocks.

If I have purchased power ups (drugs) I should be able to use them whenever and however I please. This new cooldown system does not work I wont be purchasing any more crystals to procure items that are of no use to me. Nonsense of the highest order if the bleeding hearts brigade are bleating for a level playing field then get rid of the power ups completely. Its been my experience that the biggest complainants are bigger "druggers" than the people they accuse.

 In short if your going to allow power ups then allow them or take them away completely. All these wingers banging on about skills wise up its a game its supposed to be for fun which it certainly aint now cheers tanki techs for ruining the game :(

I agree. Some of these people think only noobs use powerups. They are delusional and possibly just tight. But they are not the real supporters of Tanki (as a business) in any case.

Lol Lazer you don't see that's where the skills really lay, when you are facing the odds stacked against you and still fight back with every tool at your disposal to defeat your opponents. In a situation like I described I would use the power ups thusly armour and power take the hits fire at the weakest target, hopefully destroy it,  use the nitro to get into cover and health to repair that leaves 2,  the other is respawning, then take out a second target take a hit or two back into cover recharge and take out the 3rd, Power ups are tools which allowed the odds to be evened. if I ended up being taken out I at least know that I tried everything I could. these new cooldowns are like fighting with one hand tied behind your back.

Well said. It will end up with people gravitating towards a single or very few setups that maximise the lack of 'drug' capability. That will mean fewer sales of 'drugs', hulls, turrets. Well done, Tanki. You just ****ed your own business plan in the arse.

So all the Shafts use drugs you still end up dead.  They just cancel out  Drugs ruin games for both sides. However they are here we have to deal with them.  The new ruling changes things , even more people are using drugs because they are being peddled so hard by Tanki.  I just wish that they would peddle Pro Games with as much vigor!

In fact, the 'drugs' can even up battles and is a fact of life. Do you think any army goes into battle thinking it won't roll out certain weapons because others can't use them? Don't be so bloody daft.

Yes, with one hand tied behind you back, the extra hand which you should have never had to begin with.  Anything that gets you an even hand with three opponents is overpowered.

That's bollocks, LaserShark. Do you mean it is overpriced, because you are not prepared to pay for it?  

[psafloyd 5]

some people have money to piss away and others dont,  just sad it was given to a company that has such disregard for their players that finance them...

Well said, Zombie. Just who is supporting Tanki, after all? Does it come from screen ads?
