Melee weapons

[hhgb 2,655]

No game is complete without these, just like no game is complete without shotguns! (whole reason the Hammer was added)

 

Other tank games have melee damage in the form of ramming, but we don't have melee damage in any form. I can't see how this will hurt gameplay.

 

EDIT: added poll

Well, we have close-range guns (Freeze, Isida, Firebird), which are kind of like melee weapons. Although it would be interesting to have something like a diamond saw blade to stick out from the side of your tank as you ram someone  :)

Lagful turret, but very funny  :wub:

Er, one problem is the case when you stand sharply...

Honestly I like the game without melee damage because in tanki you are already focused enough with enemies, flags etc. last thing you need is to be careful with driving too. Maybe it's just me because I'm a lousy driver. Note: tanki gameplay is very fast in comparison to other tank games which include melee damage. Also heavy hulls would gain a really big advantage over medium and light hulls thus ruining the balance of the game.

if a gold drops everyone will be ramming each other & small hulls wont have a chance of getting a gold box

@Dilsharox: Not really. o_o

Dictator standing under Goldbox zone? Everybody rams him and he sustains even MORE damage. B)

I didn't say ramming damage, I said turrets that inflict damage to other tanks via kinetic energy. I only used ramming as an example of melee damage in other games.

I don't understand what you mean by damage from kinetic energy?

lol dictator gets rammed by everyone and lags into a pile of ash

eventually he will get destroyed as players will start to shoot while ramming

Probably ramming damage will be about weight and speed.

So, Dictator will be the best for it.

 

 

However, there is lots of ways to do it.

I was playing it before Tanki.

 

There is some bombs on back, and they explode when an enemy crush it back, or when you hit an enemy with your back.

Red blade just works for a short time, and needs a long reload.

On front, there is like a "spike" gun. This gun is the main melee gun of this tank, it works with your "shoot" command when you are near from front.

The turret is just for pushing enemies to space.

 

 

 

I think some of them also can be in Tanki.

So what you're saying is that tanks have suicide bombs on them?? Lol
