Changes in the parameters of turrets and hulls

I completely agree. For a weapon that visually shoots like a straight line, it sure is able to bend in a huge unrealistic radius and hit tanks that are like 10-20 degrees off center. I could make an hour long video of the number of times I've been killed by rail when the line doesn't even hit my tank or is even 10 feet away. Heck, I've turned corners and my hull has passed the wall, and I still get killed. It's ridiculous.

Its called lag. Your ping might have been high.

No, it isn't lag. It's completely unrealistic when you see someone charging their rail and you are nowhere near the line of sight and still get popped.

then their ping is probably better than yours

What if this update make your a better player. If you always have the same technique and don't learn another way won't you loose your edge. All the updates I have been through forced me to stretch and make my equipment work another way. Relearn and couple your past experience will make you a mighty player one day!  :)

The only problem with your theory is that you have to be in battle long enough to try a new technique. Getting destroyed constantly kind of negates any attempt on a new technique, now doesn't it!

What is equally more frustrating is settling on one or two favorite turrets - learning the pros and cons - learning how to use them effectively - then suddenly Tanki decides to ruin them.

 

I was planning on buying M3 Isida once I rank but there's no way I'll be doing that now.

 

Why would I want to buy anything now when there's the risk of it being screwed up by another update?

Yes, you are right. I am now just like a new user of Isida; in fact I have been using it since I bought the M1. :(  I don't know what to do. Switch to (i.e. buy) other turret? Or "learn" how to use Isida together with the new players?

I've been using Isida since I started and now it becomes really useless due to the cone being modified.

I have the same feeling. 3 months ago I decided to go for the route of using Isida after I have used the M1; I am now using M2. It has been quite good until the new update; Isida is definitely ruined. I even have difficulty to heal, not mention to attack. If the turret can not effectively do its job, it is not wise to use it. I still have a long way to the M3 but should I change to other turret? It is hard for me to change at this stage. Even I use other turret(s), I might face the same situation in the (short?) future update.

I can see that you are close to the M3. I am sorry for that, and for all Isida users. :(

Yes, I have been waiting for that star for about a month now (I took a two month break from Tanki due to other game ruining changes a few months ago)  - I was looking forward to the upgrade but now I doubt I will consider it. Put so much effort into playing just to unlock something and now....?

I agree with what you mentioned. I don't need a longer attack range; I prefer they give the cone angle back. I also have the same experience of you have when I play Polygon CP. I was acting like a fool running back and forth along the edge on the upper portion trying to heal my teammates' tanks but I didn't succeed :( .

I know right  -_- 

increasing the range of ISIDA was the best part in this whole rebalance that i liked but i don't think there was any need of decreasing the Vertical Cone Angle. I means its just that if they do any good to a thing then in some other way they try to make it worse too :/  :angry: 

can't  ISIDA just stay like this with bigger range and with same Vertical Cone Angle like it used to have  ?  -_- 

I mean whats the problem its not that they increased its damage or self healing that is making it Overpowered so u reduced the angle thing to have it balanced  <_< , they just simply made it A Good For Nothing Turret once again  :angry:

I think what they wanted to do with this update was to reduce the (overall) power of the two newest turrets, Hammer and Vulcan, as they mentioned that people are now getting use of these turrets so that they don't need to be that powerful. However, they didn't want to reduce too much such that the users would be pissed of. Therefore they reduced some advantages of Hammer and Vulcan and increased the damage/shoot rate/etc of other turrets. For example, the damage powers of Isida, Firebird, Freeze, Thunder and Shaft (arcade mode) were upgraded. They were then afraid that this looked like nerfing Hammer and Vulcan but boosting the other turrets so that they nerfed some parameters of these turrets at the same time (e.g. lengthen the reload time of Thunder, reduced the range of Firebird, reduced the cone angle of Isida, etc.). At the end, they messed up everything. Fortunately, a sale is just a week away and we will be pissed off by the newly updated turrets we have then we will throw in our crystals for some new turrets. Good timing !

Yeah, it's fairly useless now unless you are directly level with another player. This gives it a major disadvantage from healing other team mates now.

I am even not able to heal/attack tanks above or below when I am on a slope; it has to be on the same level. I hopelessly hope that they will at least give back the cone angle for healing. I am not asking for the attack angle back. When an Isida cannot heal tanks effectively it is nothing.

When a freeze attacks me now, I can most likely get rid of him, if I learn how. This weapon looks now overpoweed at first sight, but if you get used to it Freeze itself is soo doomed..

I realized that on test server , imagine a flag runner with Zeus paint now!
