Remove drugs

[XENI0 43]

key: Drugs = supplies (e.g nitro, nuke, double armour, health)

 

Time and time again I'm losing battles because of druggers, I know many people that have stopped playing Tanki because of this. As soon as a team starts drugging people from the opposite team will leave, this means anyone that joins after they leave will have a disadvantage because of the druggers. Then the druggers dominate an get more than half the map meaning they get more drugs that fall down and win the battle. This gives other teams no chance of winning especially if no one joins afterwards.

 

I propose Tanki should just remove drugs, it has no use (apart for noobs), people don't use them in clan wars so what is the point. It makes any player good, with drugs no one can appreciate other peoples real skill. Players will just resort to drugs if they can't be asked.

 

Yeah true you can get them in Pro battles. But the thing is no one joins Pro battles cause they don't get pro battle passes. If anything Pro battle pass should be free. Right now we have to pay crystals to get into a 'Pro battle' without drugs (what's the point?).

 

I understand Tanki gets gets money from people who pay for crystals and buy drugs, just introduce new tank paints that you have to pay real money with.

Tanki should experiment with no drug battles.

What do you think? . . .

There is an option to remove supply drops and garage supplies in PRO battles. The normal battles have been changed recently in such a way that even if the other team starts drugging, they don't get much of an advantage, because of the new fund distribution system and the cooldowns, which don't allow druggers to dominate a battle too much.

 

Now as for the supplies themselves - most players love the feeling you get when you manage to get a full set (nitro, DD and DA). It makes the game a lot more fun, adding variety and many new possibilities for specific tactics regarding strategic use of supplies and control of drop locations. If you feel that you don't have enough supplies to play comfortably - start multiple accounts and collect the daily bonus on all of them, while playing with just one. That way you'll accumulate drugs on other accounts, so that you can switch between accounts and always have enough supplies.

 

As for the PRO battle bass, I will agree that it's way too expensive on low ranks, hence the lack of PRO battles. However, they will never make it free because the idea is that in normal battles you enter for free but pay for the battle with your supplies as you play, while in PRO battles you pay to enter, but you save on your supplies.

 

Whatever it is that you choose to do (PRO battles or alternative accounts), do it and don't complain about supplies. Drugging has become one of the main features of this game so don't expect them to be removed.

You don't see my point. There should be a 'no drugs' battle option, just see what happens, drugs are just the easy way out .

If you find it hard to survive when players can only use one drug, you must be new here. Go back in 2011-2013, then you'll see what "Real Drugging" really is.

 

And don't even ask to remove drugging because the Tanki Gods removed your beloved crystal boxes.

Very funny.

You still don't see the point i'm getting. As soon as a team starts drugging they will dominate the match and get more drug pick-ups.

Very rarely. With the smart cooldowns system it's quite difficult to dominate the game completely. If you are losing hopelessly it's not the drugs that are the problem - it's your team. If you see that your team has too many unskilled players with bad equipment it's best to just leave right away and try your luck somewhere else...

What is should be is a drug free setting for free battles and drugs for PRO battles.

 

I think they have it backwards.

One Nice Suggestions is Reduce limit of Drugs (how many times 1 drug used per Match)

 

1 drug use limit 5 time Per Match.

 

Soo All drugs 5 times only in One match then There is balance in Use drugs also Not use Drugs More Times

 

What say!!???

You just say that becuse you dont have so many drugs. And when they remove drugs, many of pepole dont buy crystals and that would be the end of tanki. Tanki make money of selling crystals(maby doing some other stuff too. i dont know). And beside-drugs are very handy.

Go on. Beat it all. (Horse= drugs Beating=Complaining Point= too much complaining)

[XXgamercool_TURBO 14]

Mafioza has a point. with the removal of smart cooldowns now a single drugger cant kill your whole team. The main problem with druggers right now is the health supply. Way to overpowered.you can charge into a base with a double shield and a repair supply and literally never die. the repair immediately,(unless your getting hit by 5 or 6 firebirds) makes you invincible and at the end you have full health!! even when I use freeze tthey still get away with the flag

Some organised teams may exploit this feature and "rob" matches by repeatedly exiting and entering the battle every time they reach the drugging limit to reset their drugs, while the other team will be helpless. Even if a restriction is added for the use of drugs from one ACCOUNT in a match, regardless of how many times you re-enter, I still think the idea will be rejected by most players and developers won't implement it as it doesn't fit their ideology, which is to do everything they can to benefit buyers.

 

It is an interesting idea though. I would love to see it be implemented.

That's because the repair kit not only heals you, but also speeds up defrost and extinguishes your tank from fire.

I think pro battles are too exclusive. Druggers have now been made much less common due to smart cooldowns, but I do think that there should be three different battle settings;

 

1. No drugs (free)

2.Smart cooldowns (normal)

3.Full drugs (pro battles requiring pro battle passes)

 

With all the new pro battle options which are really cool, I personally think that they are becoming too elitist, and only for high ranks. I think this idea is good. Nice topic, certainly thought provoking

[Maf 32,300]

The game is made to be as simple as possible so that new players learn it quickly, which makes them more likely to stay. Advanced battle options still remain in PRO battles, so at least I'm thankful for that.

Besides, if you have tons of drugs to be able to waste them away in "full drug" mode, you should be able to buy a PRO battle pass and participate in PRO battles.

I for one completely agree with getting rid of drugs in general. Drugs destroy the need for skill. Any game that does not have skill will fail and quickly become unpopular.

Supplies will not be removed from the game, though should you be so passionate about not using supplies, I highly suggest you go and invest in a Pro Battle Pass. Supplies are embedded in the game, and if used strategically, can lead to incredible success, and due to the recent Smart Cooldowns, more people than ever can appreciate this! Presently, you are the minority, requesting that supplies be removed, and hence, the minority must go a little bit out of their way to attain what they wish. The developers want to please everyone, but when choices must be made, their hand is forced to go with the majority ruling. For more information on how to effectively use the new Smart Cooldowns, so you may one day be that guy who dominates a battle, please look here: Supplies Tutorial Contest winners announced! Good luck! :)
