Let's discuss increased HP for heavy and medium tanks

[as1231bo 1]

I forgot! Even bothers to regularly bow down their heads in the tanks. Each track is located in a tank overturned every minute. There are times when one half of the team. Does not lie in the towers, as if it would be towers, situated as the shot deer. Confusion even to the towers and weapons accessories of the court (ie, houses, buildings, bridges, walls) merge. The weapon should not be in the wall.

suck it up! for way too long tanki have favoured hornet/rail combo. BEST UPDATE EVERRRRRR!

I'm not complaining, I'm saying what is likely to happen.

[s4ul1u 5]

Epic! I'm using Viking most, so it's very cool for me. :)  And i'm planning to get Titan. :rolleyes: The other updates is cool too, especially update with Speed boost! NICE!!!

[s4ul1u 5]

well i was seriously waiting for such update.

I am already having m2 mammoth and m2 viking.So guys which gun should I get m2 thunder or m2 smokey?

Get both. I'm using them most, i already have thunder m3 and planning to get smoky m3.  ;) Epic turrets  :P

[wladixxx 5]

honestly I don't understand this update. In Kolhoz I'm having lower scores when I use Hornet than Viking with any turret I use (Isida, Hammer, Smoky, Rail).

[s4ul1u 5]

I HATE THE UPDATE IN WHICH NO MORE CRYSTAL BOXES AND THE GOLD FALLING IN TEAM AREA AND NOT THE MIDDLE... :( :( :P :o

but the not the drop zones are shown...but in big maps i could not see the dropzone coz it now is not faling in the middle but in team areas...i so the gold fallinh in the end(behind a shed) noise where no one can expect players hide the with the flags... no one got the gold becoz it drop when there was only 1 min left but i saw it and i was late coz i had mamoth...so the gold box must drop in the center

No no no, it's now more interesting, because you need to find the spot... and if you find it you have more chanses to get the gold  -_-

Dear Developers,

have increased the HP on medium and heavy wagons, ok .....this looks good.

I read that did  it because everyone now played only to HORNET, and no play with medium and heavy tanks ,

but have you wondered why?

....... Is very simple, by now everyone plays with Hornet and I stress Rail,

because you have totally eliminated all tournaments MEDIUM and HARD FORMAT , therefore, become good players with other cars does not help anyone, if not then you can put in place their own qualities in any tournament?

Hunter M2 And Dictator  M2 will come in use now :)

[donjayanth 13]

Titan m3 have less Hp than mammy m3  now :) :) :) 

[smurf55555 3]

COOOOOOOOOOL :D

[moth_warrior99 449]

it was better to increase the speed of Meduim and Heavy hulls because they need speed not HP

[fighter309 384]

Found less Vikings and more Hunters and Dictators now. Still seeing lots of Hornets and I cannot say much about the Heavy Hulls.

[M4D_GENiUS 266]

I am in love with my heavy hulls now, i feel much more buff and stronger.

[r_PHOENlX0 20]

I think it's pretty fair because Medium and Heavy Hulls are larger than Light Hulls so they are much easier to hit, it's not like 15 extra HP for Medium hulls will make them impossible to destroy, it will be a hardly noticeable difference.

As for Heavy Hulls this should make them more popular, but I think one of their problems with popularity is that M1 was unlocked too early, so they were just outclassed by Medium Hulls because there was almost no HP difference.

[Snow.HD 1,037]

Very Good update . I love it :) Now my titan is more OP

[Cor7y 13,862]

heavy hulls were good b4 except vs hammers this redresses the OP nature of it thank you, I hope we can see a heavy hull format soon so that rails are not the only tankers to get special treatments

 

by heavy hull format a particular example would be  for polygon map on cp mode specifically where hornets with rail go and make your team loose as they don't go to the control point

I was tired of seeing so many wasps and hornets anyway. I am kinda surprised at the Medium upgrades , but thinking about how imbalance the game was toward light hulls , this will help. 

 

Its all good to me. I use Titan :D and occasionally  Hunter :D  :D , when I feel the need for speed, though usually my fps/ping can't handle that. 

[magnaboy2 656]

They are not popular because you eliminated any formats/tournaments where you can use them  -_- 
Atleast give them their own tournament or such thing  :lol:
But I like my Dic m3 even more now  :wub:  only 2 MU's left for full health  B)

Heavy and medium hulls needed some attention, the game was becoming too much of a Hornet freak show.

 

Being a Titan and Hunter user already, it helped my garage.

I agree 1,000,000%. The game needs to be more than Hornet and railgun  tournaments. There are BETTER players, who don't use that combo and never will, unless in Parkour.

That is true. :/

I am sure developers will again do something regarding this and I hope it will be successful xD 

[racer22_online 206]

I've been experimenting with various combinations of tank by starting off some new accounts - this gives me a feel for what it's like when under attack from my main Ricochet weapon!  Hence, I know that being a heavy tank is bad news at present.  More annon...

First up - by starting new tanks - I can see the extra battle crystals at the lower levels are very good news - thanks.

By the way - I note many skilled tankers seem to be doing the same as me by starting off new accounts!  I.e. these tankers stand out by scoring 4 times higher than anyone else!

The good news from this is that I get some good battles even down at Corporal level.  However, it does worry me what effect this has on noobs?  Maybe we could make it clear to all noobs that they up against a senior tanker (who is starting a new tank) and allow tankers to switch on a 'jolly roger' sign (or something) on top of the tank so they know what is hitting them and not to worry about it too much!

It might also be useful to allow all tanks owned by one person to be linked in some way - maybe by email address?  This will help Tanki count the number of unique active tankers they have.

I now own 6 tanks.

One other thing I note at the lower levels - they are using many more maps - I find at my main tank level (around Captain) I never get to play some maps anymore, which is a shame - hence, my previous post on making 'random' maps available at all the levels.

 

Regarding why heavy tanks are not popular:

Simple: they are 'sitting ducks'!

They simply cannot move out of the way while they reload - hence, most Wasps and Hornets with a bit of skill can kill them say 75% of the time.

This update simply means it takes one more shot to kill them - which is a good try by Tanki - but this just hurts the Wasps and Hornets a small amount - this change will not make heavy tanks more popular - it just takes a few more seconds to kill them.

What I think will make a difference is if all tanks can 'swap' guns quickly at just a key press (no need to go to the garage and lose a life (and time) in the process).  However, give us 2 months notice of this change - so buying decisions can be adjusted - but swapping guns should level the playing field a fair bit - (and we will need more crystals from battles to keep 2 guns fed!)

Right now a Mammoth with Shaft cannot defend themselves very well against the 'shorties' (Wasp, Hornet with (Hammer, Thunder, Smokey, Vulcan, Izzy, Freeze, Flame, Twins and Ricochet)) unless they can keep the enemy at a long distance (not possible on most maps), (or have a nice Izzy with them).  I've not seen that many friendly Izzy's when I want them, plus that 'ties up' a tank!)

Hence, the big tanks need this better way to defend themselves.

If they swapped instantly to a Hammer or Thunder or Twins then they have a better chance of surviving.  I know Tanki have talked about having fast gun swapping - maybe on the G key (Gun) or H key (less likely to hit the F key!)  In the garage you would set up the combination you take to battle.

It would also be nice to swap paint in the same way on the P key!  (If you see a railgun - swap in Tundra or Prodigi - see a Ricochet - swap in Lizard etc.)

(This also helps make more use of all those expensive paints!)

Although I would really prefer to remove the 'link' between paint and protection - i.e. allow any paint to be chosen up to your rank and simply buy 'protection' via an MU process.  Then we can buy a bit of everything! AND use holiday paint and still have protection!

 

In summary - online fast swapping guns like this, makes for fast paced tactical decision making - exactly what I like about Tanki and all hulls could better defend themselves with a bit of skill.

Tanki is like a complex and much more interesting form of Tetris - and even more addictive.

 

(In retrospect we will all probably use Freeze as our second gun!  Tanki will have to test this!)
