Reduce power of garage supplies

[AlphaNinjaGirl 537]

Your solution is way too easy and effective for the complainers here.

Hey, glad to have you back on the forum. I see you're still incapable of doing anything but flaming on non-druggers, so... I'll just ignore you. ;)

 

I've seen it in effect in almost every drug-war I've been in, particularly clan takeovers. Once the clan establishes its defense it then begins pushing the enemy back into a purely defensive role...check out AbsoluteZero's video taken on Noise map as an example of what I'm on about, most of the blue attackers have all 3 supplies activated(presumably some of those are drops), whereas the defenders have to rely on their own drugs as they can't get up to the drop-zones.

Exactly why there should be some sort of drug limit. If you can only use, say, 10 drugs (10 of each drug, not 10 drugs total) per 15 minutes, you'd have to choose the best moment to activate your drug, meaning that drugging wouldn't be so overpowered (since you've a limit and can't keep spamming), but it would also be less looked-down upon, since it would take quite a bit of tactical knowledge to know when to activate what.

 

In drop-only battles supplies are not as destructive, but being in the right place at the right time to collect one can swing battles in a team's favour in close battles.

Again, exactly. Being in the right place at the right time and acting correctly should earn your team victories... as opposed to winning simply because you've more drugs.

 

Not sure about that analogy you gave. For a start it's not about a weak gun versus a powerful gun, drops and drugs are individually of equal potency. So in that analogy we'd be talking about whether or not being immediately armed with two Uzi's is more powerful than having one Uzi...but admittedly, me saying drops hugely increase drugs' power (and vice-versa)would be a better way for me to have put it.

Let's just say that supplies aren't as readily available as drugs, though they have the same power.

It's good that you all took my advice. :D

[TTK_229 1,080]

My policy for drugs is this: you drug, I drug. If you are too weak to fight me, too bad. On the other hand, I will drug when:

-There are several light hulls in one spot

-A good is dropping

-I am trying to cap a flag

-the last minute of a high-fund poly cp

-WHEN I FEEL LIKE IT

[The-Operator219 1,929]

^ I get that error constantly. It's amazes me that they can't sort it. Still, we have 750k paints available!

But that would require actual effort!

We can't overwork the developers, they still need to design Premium Paint XT. .-.

So, basically all the time, right? XD

The supplies are there to aid tankers. Why dont you just do the same? Buy some double damages and double armor. If you pick up a double damage, use a consumable double armor, and there ya go! I dont buy supplies...only when I need it like on monte carlo ctf. Most of the time a mammoth with a shaft will sit and protect the flg, an isida behind him and out of sight to make him invincible. I'll just buy a double damage and boom! Mammoth is dead. If he/she has double armor i will wait till it wears off then use my double damage. Simple fix.

Today I made the decision to quit tanki. It became useless waste of time. Yeah there were great times, I will carry great memories from this game, but sorry, it is just so frustrating. 

I spend 30 minutes to find a suitable battle for my level, as most of them are way higher levels against lower, and you guessed it, the higher levels just drug and push the other team in defence and wait for spawn and kill, those who are suitable for my level without drugs are so rare. 

I find that only 5% of the battles arent drug infested. I mean i see that i have far more skill than that drugger kid, and yet he is so superior that I cant do **** to him. So much drug infested games, so much battles ruined by drugs, so much druggers, so much skilless players hitting buttons just passing u by and u cant do nothing to them, cause they have the "skill" to push 1,2,3,4. 

Imagine playing with m2 viking-twins, against m1's and just dont stop drugging. Or m2 sniper mammoth against m1's. You need at least 4 m1's to take away two lifes of a m2-viking-twins. And the battle is 8v8. So half of your team is needed to kill that guy. And that if he doesnt press space button. That is so much frustrating and so common theese days. No m2 drugger has skill when he needs to drug against m1's. the same goes to m3's vs m2's. He has advantage already. I dont get the point. Kids wanna feel superior i guess. 

There is no sense in playing a game so unfair and unbalanced as this. Games should be fun, not frustrating and unfair.

So, goodbye tanki, you wont be missed.  I will stay and chat in the forum, cause there is one more tanki battle for me to be made, and that is establishing JUSTICE,BALANCE AND FAIRNESS in the game. 

Thus, I think that(most of) those who buy drugs,crystals, and BUY (not save for) kits are the ones using hacks, and tanki does not do sh!t to block hacking in the game.So much hackers... a big frustrating thing too. I think even they tolerate it, cause they realise that most of hackers are buyers and wont ban buyers that hack, cause all they care is money money money and consumers.

In the meantime, somehow and somewhere "noob druggers" are laughing at this topic. :ph34r:

Because nothing will change.

Maybe because we - nondruggers dont react to the madness that is going on. 

Boycott the game for one day, and see how things change in a second.

You have Ralgun M1 and hornet M2, a simple solution for your problem would be to buy a Pro pass and play XP/BP battles on the Russian servers (with upgrades battle setting ON or OFF depending on your tank) ....you'll easily make your 5k back. Fight in those battles until you can upgrade the hell out of your Rail/hornet.(only when it reaches M3 of course)

 

Saying the game tolerates hackers cos they're buyers is nonsense. There would be no point buying if you're using mults or hacks. One of the main reasons of cheating on online MMO games is surely to gain an unfair advantage so you don't need to buy. Which is why I've been saying for ages how dumb it is that the game developers don't clamp down on cheaters for their own sakes. It's true that the game seems all about making money these days, but IMO they're going about it completely the wrong way....sorting out the lag, clamping down on cheaters and doing something radical about the unbalanced drug battles in all battles (but Gismo battles) would make the game far more cash than some of the updates that have happened in the last year or so....largely cos they'd bring players back to the game and keep newer players from rage quitting like you.

 

But like I say, until they see sense, play XP/BP and just be glad u have that option.

We don't like XP/BP dude... no option at all.

We like a standard battle with drops and all that, but limited garage supplies use. Tanki, does not give us the option to create such battles. Not even through Pro pass. So we can't be apart from druggers who like - and can afford - full supplies throttle. So we are beaten, become frustrated and complain, and in the end we look like the bad guys in here. :mellow:

[malval 49]

Seriously?! <_< go buy a pro pass if u hate druggers

This. Fight drusg with drugs. They are in the game for a reason, if you dont like it, buy some yourself

Just out of curiosity, do you need both the turret and hull to be M2 to cooperate? If not, I might be closer to playing XP/BP than expected.

[kayitsiz 621]

The topic seems way broken, but at least let me some contribution. 

 

I think, the whole problem is caused by 2 main reason and some side problems.

 

Main reasons:

1. The game lets players join and quit battles whenever they wants, and there is no given option to restrict it.

2. Repair kit, repair kit, repair kit and repair kit...  :angry:

 

Side problems

3.Options have been tried to manage the problem until now makes many solution hard to try

4. Lost player-base weakens both players and developers hand.

5. Players' limited option to find suitables batttles

List goes on.... :)

 

I would prefer=

1. Giving players options to restrict entering and quitting battles at some form.

2. Some type of new drug deletes opponent's drugs.(Many did not like that)

3. Removing repair kit  :angry: (Main causation of the problem and removing it will never happen) and giving players less drug by daily missions and drops... 

 

I would not have any drug problem at all by now, if there were enough players to find enough pro-battle. But damn, the game somehow lost 20k players daily( I mean, daily players online rate dropped about 20 k) and now it is harder to find anything suitable for my player style.  :unsure:

Anyway, I somehow play as my sutiation is pretty much safe and stable.  ^_^

 

 

ADDITION:I don't know if it matters, but for record; I have 459 Repair kit, 1164 DP, 1330 DA, 1357 Speed Boost, 404 mines and 0 gold box drops. I completed 5 week daily straight. (I had about a year gap between the last 5 weeks and before..) And you can check my supply usage anyway. But I gained huge amount of drug on this last month and I even increased my Speed Boost count, even though I pretty much spam Speed Boost at CP games as I lack speed.

Required :

- Railgun

- Wasp

- Bravery

- Perseverance

- Team spirit

- Brave players who attack and don't hide behind walls while waiting for Jesus to appear

- Sportmanship

To be fair, "official" XP/BP matches only allow M2 Rail and M2 Wasp/Hornet (as minimum), so if you only have M1's, you'll have to find players that actually play by the rules, and don't just run around with Smoky/Viking.

 

I am a free-user like you and I can afford supplies, why ?

To be completely honest, I doubt anybody freaking cares. This topic is about the majority of tankers, not you. You can go praise yourself on omegle or something.

Well Tanki Congratulations, your game will be destroyed because you fail to listen to players views and earning some money is more important then how we feel about the game. As Milaniser said, many people including him will be leaving the game because of how boring it is when everyone drugs. I don't think many people will try Tanki X seeing as how many supplies ruin the game, I'm not even sure myself if I should try out Tanki X cause of supplies. It looks like in the end Tanki falls apart cause of supplies, R.I.P Tanki Online that has been destroyed because of supplies.

What destroyed the game is repair suppy, nothing more..

 

I am pretty fine with druggers constantly spamming DP and DA, even if the game gives us less free supply. Every annoying drug case starts with repair..

Yes you are right about the repair, I honestly hate the repair supply, but everyone has different views about supplies. However, what we all players have in common about supplies is we hate them. Even some druggers hate it when you use supplies against them, so Tanki really needs to address this problem. I doubt any devs even bother reading this, they start adding new things such as gold box to the shop cause less people are buying now, but they would get more people, and more people equals more money, if they just removed supplies. Boxes that fall should stay its only the supplies that should be removed. And yeah repair is the most annoying. I just give up and leave when I see a drugger, cause m2 twins on hard-core supplies VS m1 twins with 0 supplies equals buy Tanki or bye Tanki. If I had to choose I'd go with bye Tanki and find another game to play.
