Fed up with faux promises of hammer paints

[AbsoluteZero 3,729]

Please do not make the same mistake with Vulcan.

If it's the Devs plan to make the game unbalanced and everyone miserable then they're succeeding.

 

It's bad enough having to play with cheats and mults everyday!

 

Do we have to wait until peak server loads drop below 100k before the magic carrot is dangled to make those who are leaving come back? Really tanki, you need to treat loyal players better than what you're currently doing. Some apologies are called for.

Huh?? We, the players, requested a lot for the developers to get their hands on the processing of a new turret & hull. What we got in return? - Two turrets... now that they have worked hard on our 'request' for over a year, you're suddenly being ungrateful? :wacko:

[Dr.Urbi 657]

I never wanted any new guns, paints etc...

I know Developers goal at the momment is to produce as much profit as possible, but the fact, that after more than a month, there is still not a single paint with hammer protection, annoys me. Hammer should've been released with its protection paints at the same time or with way less delay... 

+ The already existing paints that are going to get hammer protection will most likely be the least used ones... it's all part of the bussines.

 

The only thing keeping me in the game are gold boxes and Star Ladder...

Suddenly being ungrateful? Did I sound ungrateful? Gratitude has nothing to do with the sloppy way in which hammer was introduced without protection from it for over a month. The game has been unbalanced for so long now and it's rubbing off on the best of us. It's time more of us speak up instead of pussyfooting around the crux of the matter. Why can't we just come right out say what's on our mind without having to give the devs credit first for something they get paid to do anyway! I give credit when credit is due and this is not one of those occasions.

Calm down buddy. Even if every single player leaves the game devs can't develop paints any faster.

Although it was a big mistake on their part to release Hammer without protection paints but they declared in previous v-log that same will not happen with vulcan.

It's not a case of "calm down buddy", more of a case of cheer up and we're sorry it's taking so long!

I'm just looking for a time frame of when we can expect delivery. Will it be tomorrow, next week, next month - when?

 

Just so you know, I have an m4 hammer in my garage, that's m3 fully micro upgraded. I hate using it because it's a game killer at the moment and that's precisely why I have started this topic. I'm leaving games that feature 2 or more hammers and it's becoming a tad repetitive.

 

There is no harm giving some of my thoughts here as all feedback, including negative feedback, should be welcome if it's honest feedback so please don't attack me because I write what is on my mind.

Hammer was released without paint and continues without paint for one reason and one reason only, sales.  Right now hammer is OP so everyone is flocking to buy it. Had they released it with the paints, players would only see it as a ho-hum gun and sales would be way down. Making new paints may take a little bit of time but adding protection to existing paints is nothing more then adding a few lines of code to a few configuration files. The truth is they don't want to release protection until the sale of hammers and micro upgrades slows down. They don't want to slow down sales of one the hottest selling items in tanki. When they are telling us all these grand schemes and ideas, they are talking to the naive masses, not the few of us that can see threw it to the truth.

[jazz20 1,181]

at least we'll be getting the new paints in a few hours  ^_^  . I think one thing we all have to remember is this game is a free game and not something we have to pay for to play. Thus, don't expect the Devs to kiss up and do everything you want them to do. Their busy making adjustments and dealing with top priorities and major issues than just little gaming issues here and there.....

but we are the players that make this game what it is. If they choose to ignore our concerns then that's up to them. They'd do well to listen. Don't get me wrong, I love this game and I want it to succeed which is why they should listen all the more to players like me.

 

How do you KNOW that paints will be available tonight? I think you're guessing. You maybe right but you're still guessing.

[Thekillerpenguin 1,731]

Making paints for Hammer is a bit more difficult than it seems. The technical part is pretty easy, but I think they're trying to work out the balancing part. Balance with paints is pretty hard, since they'll probably have to adjust non-Hammer protections too. If you add a bit of Hammer protection to, say, Prodigi, it suddenly has more total protection than the other late-unlocked paints. Maybe you'll have to balance Picasso after that. Then Zeus. Then Clay, etc.

 

That said, I'm curious as to why it's taking them more than a month to sort these out.

I'm assuming because of the scheduled update and previous V-log....I may be wrong

IT not free.

It's cost a lot  to get to where I am with all my m4's .$$$$$$

It's the player's that are paying to play this game  that's  what keeping tanki alive not you free player's .

You  think it's all for free  lol  i  WISH.

They only  work  to do upgrade  and down grade's  so us  buyers will  spend more $$$$ to get it!! or to fix it.

And that is it.

So not having protection paints for an over powered hammer for a month is a "little gaming issue" to you ?  :huh: WOW what do you consider major, the ability to use a mouse? 

[SpHryfBoss 573]

Hammer was just a way to get back players that tanki lost due to smart cooldowns and what not, but they're doing an equally terrible job at this. They said they had all the paints and their stats sorted out! It's amazing how their plans always works the other way around. :mellow:

I guess we won't be getting the paints until basically everyone has Hammer as high as they can get it for their rank.  <_<

[trombone_ftw 734]

The only thing keeping me in this game is the hope that it'll be better than the last time I logged on... it never is.

[haters-going-2-hate 12]

the paints are out but who ever made them and the hammer should have done them at the same time to get them out

 

..we the players lost valauable kills due to the lack of protection that should have been given when it started .

 

.and for the paint s thats a joke for my rank very little to no protection all together

 

..tanki we the players want to get in contact with tanki  designs... for one you are not listening to the players and putting our thoughts or designs for helping you in motion..we feel you are walking over us just because you think we the players have no idea what we  are talking about well surpprise we play more then you do and we see the impefections daily ..we need to make a site for us to be able to chat and see frist hand what you are up to and give input then and there not after when its too late to fix your  mistakes

[lordmostafa 3,821]
