Reduce power of garage supplies

[The-Operator219 1,929]

This is for the "buy teh por battel pass lolol" argument.

 

Say they implement my team randomizing idea, but add the option to turn it off EXCLUSIVELY in PRO battles.

Then the opposite will be true; buy the PRO battle pass for an unbalanced mess.

And drugger of the day goes to.... Jl-y-H-T-u-K!!!! Congratulations you drugging noob! 

 

Stupid, camping, drugging, can't-even-turn-his-turret, buying, D/L-paranoid, no-good-for-anything, NOOOOB

 

Sorry if I went too far, but I am extremely pissed off at this guy right now. I'm just trying to earn my exp on Rio for a mission and this nuba is just drugging and camping up at the top and I'm trying to kill him but his drugging buddies are helping him and i can't do a thing to him. Every time I get close to killing him, he activates a Repair Kit and runs away to recharge/cool down the drugs while his drugging buddies block the path and kill me. My Emerald doesn't help... why? Double Damage of course! Then he comes back out when he's ready to drug Repair Kits again. That roof isn't helping because there's drop zones for Double Damage AND Double Armor -____- COME ONNN this nuba is nuba enough already goddamnit. I only managed to kill him once, but he got 12 kills by that time.

 

I really don't know what people like him are trying to accomplish. Literally the only combo he uses is Viking-Thunder-Prodigy. Nothing else. -_- I can guarantee you he spends the rest of his crystals to buy drugs instead of new equipment. Like I said in my topic about removing D/L, this D/L statistic  is making players like him drug more and more and making it worse for all of us. Who cares if your D/L is 6.76? It means nothing if you got it by drugging so just stop it.

Sorry to hear about that. At your rank you should be aware of a player called sweety67 (look at his profile). He used to be in my clan but left because we called him drugger all the time

[omrot 2,327]

Drugger of the day: oxpanik-x2   Beware, he is a combination of a heavy drugger and a hacker. You cannot physically stop him. if he rams into you, he goes beneath you and pass you without even trying. In other words, if you see him in battle, leave immediately.

[Kid95 67]

What spot is that?

You know............the topmost part of the map at the center that you can go to, in normal conditions in a battle.

Man, 6.76 is crazy! How much backup does he have that he can get away?? He must be a damn buyer too. Parents must be so proud they raised a douche.

 

I've been more annoyed by players using Twins and drugging, because there is no end to their shooting. Besides that, a majority of them almost don't turn their turrets. Such an insult to the turret. And then they say Shafters are noobs.

 

And mods, if you're reading this, I apologize for the profanity, but banning me isn't going to change my behavior. I know what the word means, and I know how to use it responsibly. I'm sorry.

At this point, I don't give a damn. I'm keeping myself from talking dirty, but if I have to talk about someone......anyone in this game for that matter...... I don't care if I'm banned. In that case, so long Tanki, I got a million better things in life to do, for real!

6.76 isn't crazy, it's insane. but not as insane as the player featured by Tanki Online's Facebook page. His name is maximd1. Check him out on the ratings page. Apparently he hasn't played since the ratings system came out so that's why everything for him shows 0. And the thing is, my guy is a GENERAL rank () and he was at the top of the scoreboard during the beginning but got kicked down to number two by another drugging Gissmo. Drugging Twins is also annoying; they don't know when to stop, in fact, they probably don't even know what the definition of "stop" is. IMO Shafts are kind of noob-ish, because  they need that scope to aim properly and if they are on drugs, they are unstoppable. 

 

Same, it doesn't matter now how we present ourselves now. I'm sure we are all fed up with these druggers' bullcrap about "buy a pro pass" or "drug back" or "it's in the game, deal with it" blah blah blah blah blah. We kept ourselves humble all the while druggers were mocking us with their smug arrogance but now we've been pushed past the breaking point. There is no room for polite-ness now. Now is the time to let it all out, all the anger and frustration we've been holding back and if we're banned, so be it. Our voices have been heard.

By shouting out loud and acting inpolite as well, your voice becomes nothing else then another wave in an ocean. It won't stand out.

 

 

Besides that, by shouting out loud and calling them names you let them feel/enjoy, that you are anoyed by their overpowerness and there _is_nothing_ you can do about it. Do you really wanna give them what they crave for?

People are so crazy sometimes. I'm just assuming he must have taken 1 or 2 kills per game before leaving it or something so he wouldn't get killed. You know, even I've become pretty much into increasing my D/L, but I wouldn't take it to the point where I would have to drug like mad. It just feels wrong.

 

As a Shaft, I partially agree with people these days talking about Shafts being noobish. I see a bunch of these samples, for example, thinking they can just hide behind foliage and become invisible, and they don't mind coming back to the same place after they die. As for the scope, it is easy to get a kill that way, true, but I don't just use it to get kills as I like. It does take a bit of skill to do a bunch of things. I got a long list for that so I won't say it here straight away.

 

Tanki may have seen how frustrated we are, but I don't think they really care. Some of their members have already shown their true colours in this respect.

I just went to the Rio map for a looksee. I think the problem was he was trying to get at the drugger head-on since he mentioned his team mates always "blocked the way". However, a shaft at any one of the far corners has access to that spot with his laser scope. A DD shot should end it.

[generalpotato_PRO 1,076]

I have M1 Shaft :P And nobody on my team was using Shaft :P I was using Smoky so I couldn't snipe long range. I do have Railgun M3, but he was using Double Armor and Prodigi.... So his teammates were camping too and blocking my way to him. I didn't want to waste Repair Kits trying to get past his teammates to him, then to get killed by him and his backup. So I got lucky the one time when his Double Armor ran out and I got a Double Damage critical onto him and killed him.

And the most annoying drugger of the day award goes to Dark_pharaon!

 

He's your typical drugger -- every time you see him, he's got a full diamond tiara. He can't aim, so he just takes his little store-bought M2 Firebird or his crappy M0 Hammer and walks at'cha. You can't stop him, 'cuz he's always got nitro AND DA, and pops health kits like peanuts. Oh, and did I mention that he's also a preemie sellout? Yeah, he's a preemie sellout. And even with all that, he struggles to keep a cumulative D/L of 1.05.

 

Also has a really dirty mouth, even by Texas standards. I doubt he's ever won a battle in his life without dropping at least 20 drugs -- most of them DD so he can melt your face off and then gloat about it. And when I called him out on this, he called me a "salty crybaby", a "whiny noob", "asswipe", and said that I was "on my period".

 

Oh I'm sorry, I guess I didn't realize that my negative reaction to your cheapish behavior is based entirely on my menstrual process.

Hi Guys

 

I was sick and tired of druggers, so bought a premium account with the hope that i can play pro battles with no supplies and enjoy the game. Sad part is, even with a premium account, there are no pro battles going on!! Which sucks, as i am thinking of quitting the game with all these druggers around.

There's no other way of doing things brother. Sorry to hear this, although I feel it's better if we just leave the game.

 

I play Tanki sometimes to have a bit of fun and lighten up a bit. Of course I have other cool things to do as well, but I play the game when I just want to sit and relax. Druggers just have to ruin my moment once they pop up.

There's a chance I may meet this guy, considering I can still play with people at his rank. If I get a chance, I'll make him sorry, really sorry. 

 

And yeah, his D/L is pretty sad for a drugger. Mine is at 1.38 and I don't need to drug to get to that point, although I admit as a Shafter, you do rack up kills pretty fast. But anyways, this guy is good noob material to play with.

This reminds me of a Mammoth-Thunder I encountered months ago at Madness.

 

I should sort a hit-list from now on. Make things a bit of a challenge for me, besides the regular game play. Just keep the names coming, and I'll keep adding them;)

And the second most annoying drugger award goes to luiza_superman2!

 

Look guys, I'm a Third Lieutenant. I've got nearly the cheapest M1's in the garage -- M1 Firebird, M1 Wasp. So doesn't it make complete sense that a Colonel using Thunder/Viking should drug with DD every time he sees me?

 

Yeah. The guy is a constant Thunder drugger. And what's worse is that when I sneak up on him to gently warm his buttocks, he pops a repair kit as though I were a preemie sellout stealing his goldbox! Every. Freaking. Time! The dude's got a crapload of drugs at his disposal; if using one DD moved you forward 1 foot, the guy would've traveled a mile! With an astonishing rate of 52.6 drugs per hour (which is more than twice my nitro addiction), it's clear why he can't afford any paint that's better than Safari.

 

At least he kept his mouth shut, which is better than the other guy...

 

And yeah, his D/L is pretty sad for a drugger. Mine is at 1.38 and I don't need to drug to get to that point, although I admit as a Shafter, you do rack up kills pretty fast. But anyways, this guy is good noob material to play with.

Aside from my nitro addiction (which I don't really think is too game-breaking), my Drugs Per Hour is around 8.3. So yeah, I'm clearly NOT a drug addict. And my D/L is 1.40. (Admittedly I toast a lot of lower-ranked players but that's still pretty good). If I don't prove that skill is more valuable than drugs, I don't know what does.

Well, also without a premium account you can still purchase a pro-pass for 5000 crystals. It lasts for one month.

The problem you face, is that there are next to no pro-battles in your rank range. This will come once you are above 800.000 experience points maybe (so after playing the game for 800 hours with good results).

 

Given that figures.. someone really starts to think of investing time and money somewhere else :P

I got a hell lot of appreciation for clean players with D/Ls above 1.20. I assume you get a good deal of kills with that Firebird. That was the first M1 I bought till I got attached to Shaft and realised Firebird was no longer as powerful as it used to be initially.

Now words, turned a good game of Noise CTF into an absolute joke in two minutes.

His name makes me laugh. His skill makes him the "gaymer" he aspires to be.

 

Agreed, this set up of Doubles with heals turns most units into the Hulk.  There is much to be said about clever druggers that time their exposure.  I know this from watching the D/L stats closely.  I am a VERY GOOD Shaft player, period.  Might not be the best, no, no Obey here, no MLG, but I hold my own quite well, and I know how hard it is to get a decent D/L (death to loss) at my rank.  I'm convinced that your drug + heal up issue is at the heart of these stats too.  I see people with 42, 49 D/L, and their L is equal to like 3, 4, and 5, and they ARE NOT camping Shafts that are obscure in the distance, they are front line Thunders, Rails, and Firebirds, flag runners, getting POUNDED, and their D/L is FAR higher than my own sometimes.  I have no qualms with higher D for people closer to the action, but L?  You are getting getting hit like a baseball at Wrigley Field, over and over, and you die 4 times in 15 minutes?  I think not, especially when you spend more time in the enemy base than in your own. a 4 to 1 or 5 to 1 is good, 9 to 1 or 10 to 1 is just unbelievable.

Bro, your D/L, is inspiring! And here I am with Winter paint that offers 44% protection against Shaft which saves my Hornet from getting smoked in a shot, while you don't use any paint at all??? That is skill!!! I should try that out sometime. Too bad I'm focused on improving my D/L further at the moment, so I'm pretty much attached to my paint.

Firebird M1 used to be amazing, then the "balancing act" hit. Its damage saw a pretty big increase, but its afterburn time and damage took some massive hits. I used to have its afterburn at 14 seconds, until one day I woke up and it was at 10. It took me a ton of crystals and micro-upgrades to get it up to 12 again, but after the second wave of balancing, it was back at 8.

 

I was a bit miffed at this, but thanks to the recent micro-upgrade update (and thanks to the 30 or so upgrades I'd bought on damage alone), it now deals 50 damage per tick and has an afterburn duration of 10ish seconds. I like to call it an M1.7, since it's pretty close to being M2.

 

And hey, having a near M2 weapon at this rank is pretty darn good, I must say. Same goes for my hull... I've got about 35 upgrades on my Wasp.

I still use it just fine, or "used", since moving to Vulcan M1.

[BlackWasp777 4,498]

As far as I remember, the firebirds afterburn was shortened, but therefor increased in dps (damage per second). So you have the same deal as before (at least they told us that.. but it is hard to communicate about such data).

 

If you are interrested, we have a discussion on firebirds damage right now in > this thread (links points to first results).. so if you provide the parameters of yours (exact stepping) then it should be a matter of minutes to find out what damage you deal at the moment.

Firebird M1 used to have 12.1 seconds of afterburn. It's been massively nerfed to 5.7, which is kinda stupid.

 

Of course, I love having people calling me "hacker" since my afterburn is so long. XD

There are some maps where you can polish your tiara by always passing through drop zones, especially if the battle isn't too crowded.

Dear Alpha

IMO micro upgrades has a double problem: they are far too expensive and the are just useless in terms of saving to the next M, unless you make them all. In any case you come to pay much more than just upgrading to the next M. In other words, I personally MU maybe the first 2-3 MUs on the M1-M2, no more. Otherwise you will find urself with no crystals to go on with career. I think the only MUs worth doing are the M3 MUs, as they will be "final".

Just my opinion!
