yes you're probably right

 

no, i was repling to 3rdonion, he said my friend earned all the exp when smoky was OP, i told him he did so after smoky got nerfed, because the smoky nerf came before the update when they stopped counting crystals from missions into total crystals earned

 

the only thing i was pointing out was that smoky is good enough for anything and anywhere, that's why these guys never had to use anything else.

thanks to darkness we have yet another living proof

I am pretty sure crystals earned from missions are still counted as crystals earned.  Like 99% certain.

 

Yes, OI agree with the point that Smoky is useful in just about all modes and on all maps. If you have to go along range the slow-fire alteration gives it some capability.

 

I used that alteration last night fr the first time in ages. I couldn't get into the flow do didn't use it long.  But I did get a long range 1200+ kill shot.  later I took one shot at a target 80% of the way across Deathtrack. That one shot was a 1500 pt crit ... but not a kill.  Still must have been a surprise to the recipient.  :o

 

Went to the stock Smoky for awhile too.  The crits were nice to see again after so long.  But the loss of +impact was noticeable. I t was not long until I was back to my bread-and-butter. Assault Ammo > Crit Hits.

99% is not enough  ;) No, crystals from missions are not counted in the profile anymore. Obviously they changed it when they changed the efficiency rating. You can check the Share your rating topic for this.

Wow I figured the only way my Cry earnings were explained was that they contained mission payouts too. Well that's why you say 99% to give you wiggle room. :)

I agree with most, but Hammer has to be replaced with Rico and Smoky definitely should be at the very bottom.

Also Shaft is slightly overpowered so i guess its better in the forth place or something.

First 4 are great. :)  100% agree.  I might personally move Hammer a bit lower but they're all there that should be.

 

The last 5, not sure.   Shaft seems stronger than Freeze in the hands of a skilled user.  Striker is probably weaker than even Vulcan because of the useless lock-on and alternating shots.

actually this is the only high ranked account that is mine but.. I play on other people's accounts :ph34r: i said i have other accounts because i didn't want to get banned but whatever. seriously tho, magnum is like a noober version of shaft, i use it because it's more challenging, shaft is too easy.

:mellow: you're probably sick of all my screenshots by now, aren't you? i won't bother then. this ranking is based on what i see me and my friends achieve with these turrets.

Magnum, the weakest turret in TO. Riddler is this you?  :lol:

 

I had a TDM mission to do just moments ago. There was a desert game open at a reasonable rank and that wasn't lopsided.  Now TDM is often the home of long range weapons because there are no strategic locations to capture. You can just sit at one end of the map.  As the screen was loading I wondered to myself how many magnums would be in that game.

 

There were four on my team. Four. I spent most of that game just defending the magnums against the occasional enemy that tried to kill one. Boy was that "fun".

 

I think I have had one game in the last 20 to 30 without a Magnum in it. Those rare games are fun. But most games have at least three magnums.  

 

But noooooo. All those players are using it because it is weak. That is why you see at least three vulcans and strikers in every game.

 

LOL

Helllo, Today i will post a special edit version of railgun and its altretion , my post will make the game better , fun , balanced, more fun.more fair, re the old days , 

 

 

as every one know that railgun has been greatly nerffed in 2016/10 re-balance and everone know the disliker was more than the likers but for no reason tanki applyed the balance of rail any way im sure some one will tell me " easy want the old rail ? buy the altretion its only 100k" hmmm not bad if its true but its not true , why ? easy the altretion doesnt cost 100k it cost 200k and need a quite high rank to get it , why 200k ? think in it rail m2 96k+altertion100k = 200k + the quite high rank to re the old rail which was for free . so this is waht tanki want to show us ? this is how tanki want show us they are great ? ok dont put the blame all on tanki , why ? the devs are not enough to make a balancess its need a 2009-2017 players like me to help them so i decided to help tanki and i wish they lestin to me ( im sure they will devs are great people and will take my adive ) , any way lets contune , so my adive is to re the old railgun , but wait waht about the altretion if we re the old railgun waht does the altreiton do then ? easy i didnt leave anything with out plan for it here is the edited alltretion by me https://drive.google.com/file/d/1pdxJp6ottFivvngx1BWk5aj6VCuqyjnj/view its greatly improve the reload time , dmg dcrease but reload worth it :) well in total its going to be like replace the railgun with the altretion , dont forget the old rail was for free you dont need to pay 200k to get the old rail this not fair .

 

 

thanks so much for everyone respect my hard working and reseacrh to make the game better and fun and fair .

has anyone seen M1 magnum on a M1 hull finish 1st in a general deathmatch battle?? come on, anyone?? 

No, because M1s aren't meant to play in battles with Generals.

 

Also, Magnum functions better in team battles where it has layers of tanks to hide behind.

Ah... that explains it.  You don't really know what it's like playing the high accounts. "Borrowing" your friends account occasionally does not give an informed experience.

 

Sure smoky can finish near the top when m2 is unlocked - it is one of the most powerful m2s.

But then, slowly through rank-up it loses it's luster.  Once in the m3+ ranks it becomes average. Not terrible, sure, but no longer OP at all.

You'll see.

 

This is what m1 smoky on a m1 viking does to generals...

25HxH_GlylU.jpg

"generals"?  You mean general - singular.

Half the players were in battle much shorter time - look at counts of k+d.

And we all know ESP4 was drugging constantly during the battle.  We Know.

ESP4 is a buyer - has lots of supplies and equipment is maxed available for the rank.

 

What we don't know is if this "m1" is really an m1 10/10 = m2... and we all know m2 smky unlocks late and is one of best m2s available.

We also don't know (from just a final screen-shot) how long 9110 was in battle. Maybe half the time as ESP4 with similar score.

We also don't know how much - if any - the other players were drugging.

 

Have no idea what you are trying to prove by posting these screen-shots... they don't tell the story you think they are telling.

 

FYI - please add a hard break after the screen-shot so a spoiler can be added. As it is the end-spoiler can't be added when responding.

by "generals" i just meant golden stars. and in these battles druging doesn't give you an advantage because everyone drugs. this battle is way after the triple mission rewards, there's the overdrive star as you can see. 

 

I'm pretty sure it's not 10/10 but i can't prove that so you can assume it if you want to. but even at m1 10/10 the m2 alteration doesn't unlock. 

 

and does it matter if it is m2? in these battles everyone else is m2+, m3 or m3+. If this is what you can do with a m1 then imagine what happens if you get palladin at lieutenant general; get the alteration and join such a battle... and imagine what you can do by the time you MU it to m4 when you're general...

But again, what you "can do" is not relevant.  

 

If I posted my best battle, it is not representative of all Freeze-hornets.

 

You've supported the claim that your friend is skilled.  But you haven't supported any claim that Smoky M2 can destroy Generals with ease.  

 

If I asked you to post his worst battle with Smoky M2, you wouldn't think that was fair.  Why should it apply the other way around?

I'm just explaining why i put smoky somewhere at the top of my list. because it is indeed very powerful, it's just that a lot of people can't use it.

I think that this statement applies to almost every turret in the game.    I would judge a turret by its average performance rather than the extreme outlier/professional.

 

Perhaps in your ranks Smoky is still near the top- but definitely not at Legend where there are very few light hulls.

isn't it better to see someone use it to it's full potential? 

 

I have used smoky on legend accounts too  :ph34r: not a lot, but i have seen my legend friends use it a lot.
