I like it, but it can only work well with a few hulls, so I might not buy it

[Xxemo_dinoxX 934]

I love Vulcan's advantages!

[Thekillerpenguin 1,731]

Vulcan's been balanced a lot since its first iteration in the test server. I like how it is currently; I might get M2 Vulcan on the real servers.

[roadkill78 39]

actually i might get it with drugs its really addicting

and i wanna brag I GOT M1 AND YOU DONT HA

[greyat 2,972]

I was able to test Vulcan for approximately 30 seconds. Then server closed.

...and it opened again.

Hm, just a while ago you said it sucked and asked for it to not be put in the game.

This gun is so awesome. Yesterday I played with it  well maybe only 5 houres ago :lol: and if the gun will be released without some changements , Then i think i just played with the most realistic and Overpowered gun in tanki history .....

The Vulvan I test a little, because with flash player debuger, after 30 seconds of the game, it crashes in LAG and all they whirl, I can say from what I have seen that the flow of bullets is too thin (such as graphics) if it were a little more often would be more pleasing to the eye.

I agree with you. It almost looks like a huge bee is trying to put his sting in you or  something. I also don't really like the sound , it should be much heavier.

This is a Indian Vulcan 'Machine Gun'

vulcan PRO fast reload ok GOOD

Last I tried Vulcan, the impact force was so much less than when it first came out that I couldn't tell if I was even hitting. I can't go on now, so does anyone know if they brought the impact force back up? Without IMP F, the gun has no character (boring).

[Buggati_The_Best 1,233]

vulcan better version of twins

[Bananamanftw 2]

anyone know when the m1,2,and3 unlock

Again if they kept the statistics similar to last rebalance it would be too overpowered and would ruin gameplay, it can't be more powerful than the other turrets because it would make them irrelevant. Now i personally preferred the gyroscope as it gave more balance and more skill, without it, its a terrible drugging weapon, gets owned by hammer, and once noobs with no skill take over it smaller maps will be a pain to play with it on and i rely on smaller maps

Not trying to undermine Tanki but qho else wonders why T.O got Hammer in the game so damn fast but Vulcan is taking so 

long ? Will it come out this Friday or something? want it so bad.

[Germanwarrior2 16]

Vulcan looks great, really impressed with the range, even M0 has farther range than M3 Rico. Many don't like the gyro effect, but I think it will be very useful for multiple attackers. If 2 tanks are charging you or you see a group of tanks at a flag or control point, you can start shooting and then move your tank side to side to hit all enemies at once. A few downsides, M3 damage is barely 10 more than M2 from 48 to 58, it should be at least 62 for 274000. Since M3 is so expensive, give us a break on M1 and M2. 28300 is a bit much for M1 when you consider M1 firebird is just 7000.

Well, don't forget that Hammer and Vulcan had debuts at about the same time; if they worked more on Hammer originally (which, may I remind you, took a long time), then it would only make sense that Vulcan would take longer to imput to the game.

Well, if they increased the damage per shot, what kind of power do you think the Vulcan would grant? It would be too overpowered, as with the issue of the recoil that the developers remedied. And the price is only logical for a weapon with such abilities; infinite rate of fire (for as long as you can withstand the overheat, which with an Isida and/ or Freeze nearby, a few x2 Armors, and a heal pack or two, is a very long amount of time), the amount of recoil per shot (very annoying for Rails, Smokies, and things of that caliber), and the versatility of playing style with the gyroscope function all make this a weapon worth the extra crystals, if not more. (At least, at M2 and M1. The pricing is pretty fair at M3.)

[Germanwarrior2 16]

Does anyone know if the damage per shot decreases at farther range? Hopefully not, that would help it to compete with rail, shaft and thunder.

Vulcan's probably a bit harder to program and/or balance. With Hammer, you only need to implement and tweak damage and impact force, mostly. With Vulcan, you need to tweak the spin up time, overheating time, cooldown time, impact force, damage, etc. It's a much more complex gun.

[roadkill78 39]

that was before it got updated

and i said its fun and addicting

i said it sucked because i admit i didnt use it long enough

[chiddychiddy 6]

Vulcan overheats too easily now. It's impact is too low for a MACHINE GUN! Gyro is great though. Turning speed is a bit slow-sluggish on the get go. Visuals need some work because it looks kind of thin. Burning is DEFINETLY too quick though. It's NOT cool for the user, and is more of a game ruiner than a feature to be mastered (like spin up).
