if fire is too strong for you just use fire protection module.

You should know better than to take advice from YouTube videos, for all we know, the YouTube couldve just edited the video to make it seem like firebird isn't so bad.

[CabbageRoll 3,018]

no bruh they should buff it even more to like 1000 DPS & infinite fuel

[fordmustang12345 3,910]

I understand that this is a futuristic game, however, giving like 70-year-old useless tech GOD like capabilities is not "futuristic"

this game isn't even Futuristic, it's basically an Arcade game, nothing real matters

Lets worry about the Duplet alt first...

And now it's a rare occurring alteration. So sad.

 

Out of the possible 100 Hammers I've seen this past two weeks, only one of them had Slugger. The heavy majority were using Duplet (obviously). 

[Hancho 3,902]

Everybody is complaining about duplet alteration for Hammer lol - Buy hammer protection and you will be good. Firebird has been annoying since the update made it so OP, the burning part especially.

I haven't seen a stock hammer for days. Literally.

Standard hammer is weak TBH. Probably because of damage not being high enough. Even slugger is weak because of the slow rotation speed.

I've seen some around. Yesterday, I saw an M3 Titan + Hammer who was using the stock version. He wasn't able to get the 90 score to get any stars though. I guess stock Hammer is obsolete at this point.

I got 38% protection against it now but it's still annoying as an Isida + Titan to constantly be getting stung in the back twice in at least 0.3 seconds every 4.2 seconds and they just back out of my range then repeat the situation. I can't keep a clear head trying to support my teammates or be aware of my surroundings when I know there's a Hammer going to sting me twice in the next 4 seconds. 

 

Think about the poor unsuspecting light hulls being flipped mercilessly all because they were spared for having Hammer protection. They have to rework that alteration and I'm getting sick of waiting for them to put out another balance change for the Alterations and Firebird itself. Still waiting for them to either nerf Firebird and nerf or delete Compact Tanks.

 

I suffer greatly in Polygon CPs because I'm usually the only player on my team who doesn't have Firebird protection. I own 4 protection modules but the only one I have of a prominent turret would be Ricochet. Although I do notice the damage reduction, it doesn't help when it feels like the enemy Ricochet has infinite ammo.

When you've played with it long enough, you'll forget how bad the rotation speed decrease really is. I remember when I first bought it and I was pressing my z and x button so hard hoping it would make the turret turn faster. These days, I don't feel the need to do it. Slugger feels like the alteration that is the most evenly matched when put together with stock Hammer.

I think they need to add another benefit to the alteration like maybe the ability to penetrate through tanks, but damage on the next tank in line receives is only 10 to 25% of what the previous tank received.

Ehhhh, I think that would be a bit too privileged. 

 

Remember, this was really meant for low-rank play. It is the cheapest alteration which means (It shouldn't be like this but it is) it would have the least interesting effect changes. 

 

Personally, I think it's balanced. People could argue that it could be worse to use this alteration in the low rank because of how slow it would turn compared to the M3/M4 version but that's just it; we aren't supposed to compare it with significantly better modifications.

 

Also, the purpose of it was to alter it to better hit ranged targets where a number of pellets from stock Hammer would generally not be able to hit. Any other effect added to that and you'd have to change the description and possibly the name. 

 

A penetrating bullet effect would be an alteration in itself but Hammer already has enough. It supposed to be evenly matched with its stock turret but Tanki seems to be doing a bad job with that task. 

[Aigaion 636]

ok now your just triggering me xD shotguns aren't for AP roles, that's not what the role of a shotgun is for.

[ThirdOnion 4,898]

Tanki development plan:

Step 1: Make turret super OP

Step 2: Players buy crystals to buy turret and / or protection modules

Step 3: Nerf turret into the ground and repeat process with a different turret

Step 4: ?????????

Step 5: Profit

Smoky - Incendiary rounds everywhere

Vulcan - Incendiary band everywhere

Rail - 'Scout' accelator everywhere

Hammer - Duplet everywhere

 

There is a bias in these alterations xD

[GetRektSkrub_II 29]

Games are dominated by buyers more than ever and its on the same few boring maps over and over again. Ridiculous drones than plant mines in multiples of five and drones that allow a tank to repair EVEN IF they have just used a repair kit (this may also be followed by overdrive - meaning a tank can repair 3 times in quick succession). Duplet is too strong and generally the game is a complete snore fest dominated by brain dead buyers.

 I am a non buyer and I have fun playing the game and I can get in the top 3 places on the winning side when I try :P . Though I do think Drones should be taken out of the game because those things are op and only buyers can really use them. That or make the batteries last longer. Right now the amount of time they last is a joke. Also yeah I think there needs to be more maps in match making because right now the battles are getting boring and redundant. Also I miss the old maps, sure we can play them using the battle pass but you can't really get enough people to play especially at my ranks where everyone is focused on completing missions and getting crystals.  

 

Noise CTF is one of my most favorite battles and I haven't played a good game in it in quite a while now -_-

 

And regarding the issue with the hammer alt duplet  :mellow:

I posted this on the lets discuss hammer page but I think it fits in here as well

 

"Also you guys make hammer seem insanely powerful compared to all the other turrets but I think otherwise.

 

Look at vulcan with its incendiary band if you have ever seen one in a tdm or capture the flag that thing is a monster paired with a isida, I went against one and it mopped the floor of my entire team.

 

Also firebird with, i forgot the alt's name, the alt that allow it to have hotter flames is op as well it can quickly destroy tanks without fire protection, even tanks with fire protection barely stand a chance.

 

And smoky with its cyro rounds is just over powered it freezes its opponents as much as a freeze would in 5 seconds in just 2 if a hammer went againts that thing at mid range it would get rekt, I can say from experience, and Im a really good hammer player with an m2 hammer(on my other account GetRektSkrub_ii) and I can hold my own against m3s easily. That being said rico, isida and the other turrets still have yet to recieve an op alteration but when the time comes everything should be balanced.

 

Oh and I forgot to mention magnum with the alteration that drops mines is also really overpowered just think about it.

 

Hammer just seems op because at the moment more people have easier access to it and it was pretty op to begin with. but the other 4 turrets seem just as powerful if you put the time in to master them.

 

Vulcan got nerfed and it sucked junk at the m2 level so no one bothered to get it, it still sucks junk without the alt. 

 

firebird...a lot of people have it but a lot of people also have protection against it and its still use a lot so...

 

smokey can only be acquired at the colonel rank and its hard to aim with it for some people so theres that."

I think hammer is annoying because it can destroy M4 viking in 1 second with duplet (although firebird and freeze are also insanely powerful). To stop being killed so easily by hammer I bought 1000+ double armor in the 50% sale... first time I've ever done that. I didn't have enough crystals for the hammer protection module and I bet tanki will make duplet weaker soon and then something else will become more powerful. From now on I will always look to buy supplies in the sales. Drones are probably out of reach for me because the best are expensive to buy and MU. I have 1736 batteries gathering dust in my garage.

If you play DM get the Trooper drone - it's cheap and the short boost helps you survive long enough to get into decent position.

 

The miner drone is relatively cheap and good for CTF - nothing like watching enemy destroy itself after it kills you - thinking there can't be a mine there

Science, obviously not, but just common sense, and fact, as I stated, I know that this is an un-scientifically based game, but, there are just limits.
