I only bought it just for getting M2 Wasp. Didn't really need M2 Railgun even though before I had M0.

[Thekillerpenguin 1,731]

I can maybe understand why you'd be able to get M2 Railgun 2 ranks early, but the M2 Wasp part really makes no sense if you ask me. You're getting M2 Wasp, what, 7 ranks earlier than you should be able to.

 

Early M2 Railgun isn't a huge deal in my eyes (it's not a guaranteed one hit kill on M1 Hornets, RIP M1 Wasps though), but early M2 Wasp is a huge advantage. It's every bit as tough as M2 Hornet, yet it's the fastest thing on the battlefield (only M3 Wasp or M4 Hornet beats it). I thankfully haven't fought anybody who has bought the kit yet.

 

I suggest they patch the unlock rank of the kit to Colonel so you don't get a huge advantage. This is the same issue that the Legend kit had a few days back, only worse.

 

Well, at the very least most players who would get M2 Wasp at 3rd Lieutenant won't have a lot of experience with it, so it shouldn't be as hard as fighting a battle-hardened pro.

I don't understand this "XP/BP" fad among Tankers. This combo is very destructive at the right hands, but the inexperienced (75% of Rail users) can't even aim in this thing during normal battles, making them utterly useless (especially in CP, why even bother joining!) What's worse that Tanki is treating it like the "King Combo" of all. -_-

 

The sheer power of this thing allows the GUARANTEED on-shot of Hornet M1s and Wasp M1s of the already struggling 3rd and 2nd Lts. That isn't nice, at all.

yes diversity helps keep things alive but there are way more things about XP/BP the king combo of the entire tanki universe.

 

I have been playing tanki for nearly 4 years on and off for now and I have played with nearly every possible combo you can imagine and to add to that, I'm still here playing this game after such a long time because of the love for the XP combo and I'm pretty that this is the same with most of my old friends here in tanki. I wont go into details telling you the specialties of XP/BP combo. But simply putting it I believe that XP has managed to get such a huge popularity due to the reason of never ending learning curve it has.

 

2 days back I had this rare chance of playing against hormony from Eguards of star series and I must admit that I fell in live with XP even more after seeing some of the extremely hard shots she made and I'm pretty sure this is exactly how XP/BP has made such a huge community of fans.

 

About your point suggesting that around 75% of the rail waspers dont know how to aim with it. Even I can say such things as "nearly 80% of the noobtubers are mults with no skills in most cases". There is NO point in expressing such points which hold no value or meaning at all.

 

So yeah this is why I believe there's nothing wrong with tanki promoting such a combo at low ranks....

Actually, the problem here is NOT about xp/bp battles. If the developers want xp battles in low ranks, they can give out hornet m2 at third lieu., and the kit buyer can start xp/bp. I don't mind that, but the core problem is m2 wasp. It is extremely quick with an above adequate amount of armour. This particular hull, unless operated by a mentally handicapped player, will be OP at such low ranks. Also, there is less momentum for me to rank to colonel just to obtain that legendary m2 wasp, provided that it is available 7 ranks earlier. Another point to note is that xp/bp is not that common at third lieu., and whether the kit buyer has the chance to train up their bp skills is a problem itself. Therefore, this kit should be changed, if not removed, as soon as possible to maintain game balance.

[lukey0 27,543]

It should be unlocked latter.

[LeIouch_Vi_Britannia 6,163]

Kits aren't meant to be overpowered, they are supposed to give tankers a chance to get equipment at lower ranks since it takes ages to rank up. As said above, it was probably for lower rankers to play XP/BP. 

Oh...

So please tell them to give a titan M2/hammer M3 cause I love to get it  :rolleyes:

no sense,really...

[kayitsiz 621]

I think we started to exaggerate it. C'Mon! Too bad, but not as bad as OP M2 heavy,medium kits.

Maybe we should be happy. They didn't put progidi, taiga, inferno, urban, spark or something else

Not that bad, but still not good. So why not fix this?

Why do you believe XP/BP is everything? Why do you think it can make up for everything? Even balance of equipment?

[kayitsiz 621]

If really someone wants to add OP kits(even a bit), ıt should be something heavy. If someone doesn't want to face it, they can escape.

But this kit.. Already railguns are very effective at this rank. Nearly no shafter, and rare examples are M1. Everyone is still using M1 hulls, maybe M2 hornet. M1 thunder, M1 other guns.

 

It it was Mammoth M2-Ricochet M2, I would just run away and escape. But railgun...

 

Can anyone think others except XP/BP? Who would prefer other guns while there are already this kit and lots of XP/BP supporter players!?

 

If there should be some OP, It should conflict general gameplay to change something.

Heavy tanks, or maybe Freeze. Twins is underused, and Shaft a bit. How many players are using Hunter, Titan?

[I.WalkAlone 548]

^Hunters are pretty common at my rank. Titan is definitely the rarest hull in the game.

[LeIouch_Vi_Britannia 6,163]

at upper ranks they are rarer ._. Viking...

and Titanis a rare but actually usefull hull...

wanted to buy the mosquito but am waiting for a sale to buy M2 Titan ;)

[kayitsiz 621]

^Hunters are pretty common at my rank. Titan is definitely the rarest hull in the game.

So what about Tiatn-Twins M2 or Titan-Shaft M2 or even some early M3 with Titan M2 instead of overused Railgun and a bit common Wasp?

 

EDİT: Early M3 wasn't a good idea.  :unsure:

there should be kits like this 1 for each modification will be enough

IMO, the whole XP/BP concept is ridiculous and waste of potential. They're just stretching the silly idea down to the new people. Just my thoughts. But with this "kit," it just reminds me of a WO5 with M2 Viking and Thunder/Emerald pounding the competition with equipment he shouldn't even have.

[Yisroel.Rabin 16,224]

Couldn't agree more.

Seriously.

It was said that weapons would appear in kits, a bit out of range. But M2 Wasp for such a low rank?

[Dragon-Judgement 1,529]

EDİT: Early M3 wasn't a good idea.  :unsure:

Personally, I dislike the idea of me having to wait until I reach Generalissimo to have M3 Mammoth. I have to waste time and crystals to MU my M2 Mammoth to stand with (or at least fit in) others with MU on Viking or Dictator... too much of a wait for me.

If I were to buy a kit, it would've been the "Heavy M3" Kit with M3 Mammoth and Twins, just for the hull. I couldn't care less for the paint(s) or gun it came with.

M3 Heavy was my dream. I wanted every part of this kit. But these kits were OP.

I just wanted the Hull because Mammoth is all I use. I don't like Twins; no skill.
