1.) Not sure about how I feel about short ranged turrets still retaining effects, but I s'pose it's all in the eye of the beholder. It might get old pretty fast.

 

Also, not sure how long you've been around, but there once upon a time was a map known as Carousel, a racing map, similar to the one as you were describing. 

 

2.) What would making a plague gun do to change Freeze's purpose? It seems like all you're doing here is cosmetic. Also, the rusting weapon just sounds like an exaggerated Firebird effect...

 

3.) Unless the water's highly corrosive, I don't see how driving in it for even a few days is supposed to cause your war machine to start rusting... I would take quickly to the concept of driving through water bodies or fording rivers in a tank game, though. That'd be pretty neat.

 

4.) this is a nightmare just waiting to happen. I can see it now:

 

[soandso1 has gone into boss mode]

[soandso2 has gone into boss mode]

[soandso3 has gone into boss mode]

[soandso4 has gone into boss mode]

and so on...

 

The idea for rewarding killing one lone tank supplying the map with a gold box... eesh. People would be power leveling like nobody's business.

 

I'd suggest reworking the boss idea a bit. As much as I'd like to see it implemented into the game, this particular version's going to have to be redesigned completely if it's going to see any airtime.

 

5.) I don't have any quarrels with that. I could use one of those; Chrome is my main tab.

 

6.) Well, you have to remember, this isn't actual war. It's an MMO, made for interaction with other people across the globe. I'm assuming if you're actually talking to another person in the game, you're going to want to make a bond with them instead of simply teaming up for the sake of domination (although, sadly, this is a recurrent event).

 

7.) Err... what exactly is the purpose of this? I suppose I understand the effect you want environmental objects to have, but... it feels like this would be out of place and totally inconvenient to the average gamer. And besides, where would the kills go? What happens when you have to deal with multing teammates at the safe zones? I feel that there's just a few too many cracks in the seams here.

 

8.) You understand how drops work, right? One falls every 1:45 onto its designated zone. Basically, it's impossible to have just one box on the map. And flying tanks...? Dude, that's just broken in so many ways. (Though I do think that it would be really neat. Can you imagine this on a Mammoth? Somebody say Wing Fortress Zone...)

 

9.) I actually think this would be kinda cool. Of course, the generated tunnels might not be an option, but I still like the idea of environmental interaction.

 

10.) If you could choose when to rank, then what's the point of having a rank system at all? And don't fret; it's supposed to take an eternity to rank up. This is one of the game's durability tests, keeping you baited until Generalissimo. And then there's the whole endgame, but that's a long story.

 

11.) Y'know, stuff like that annoys me when that happens. You mistype one character without noticing... But still, this is where careful typing and paying full attention come in handy. The reason it's so expensive is so not everyone is constantly changing their name. The process is lengthy, and nobody will know who anyone is after a week.

 

12.) Uh... Gens will be fighting other Gens.... not WOs...

 

13.) Hm... not quite sure what to argue here. However, there are more efficient ways at making crystals. *cough* *cough* Polygon CP *cough*

 

14.) Buddy, to be honest, this just sounds like an OP version of Twins that you have to reload. I'm not sure how general audiences will feel about this weapon...

 

15.) Well, that's why you prepare it all before you start playing, bud. Have an icon set up on the corner of your screen, and when a gold comes, tap it real quick before engaging. That's what I did when I was into making YT vids.

I know my input is more like a drop in an ocean, but I'm hoping anything helps.

Most of your ideas have already been suggested in this topic before. Use the search option before posting. As for the original ideas you came up with - the post above clearly explains why most of them won't be possible/beneficial to add.

I have a suggestion of my own. Here it is i think its weird how the barrel on a turret cant go up and down on this game i have another account with a higher rank and every time someone would shoot me from down below it would really annoy me seeing it pointing strait ahead looking off into the distance but hitting me at the same time it never made since. You would think one of the most important things in a tank game is this but apparently not in this game :huh: Here's how it would work If you F would make the cannon go up and V would make the cannon go down and for the alternative controls J would make it go up and N would make it go down this could easily be put in. Tanki has already screwed up plenty of times i think this would be a could addition and it would help people realize tanki does not just screw things up but makes them better. ;)

The ranking system was designed so that it's not to easy to get right to the top in a few months. 

I like the following ideas: 5, 9, 3 (albeit if water doesn't rust you or damage you), 13, 14, 15

That is all.
