Dictator need to be redesigned! why?


Recommended Posts

First of all, I am not a great fan of the design of fatty Hull Dictator. Its potato like design makes me sick to ride on it. Even those I see of using it, I hate them anyway! Whatever, Its egg like design, may look better if it is stretched little bit which also guarantee more balance where it lacks now. Height is its main advantage which should not be compromised anyway. Also Tanki may think to minimize its "two big tooths" in the front for sake of better looking!.On map like Polygon you can always see some selfish players are using the Hull for sake of Gold Box only. Some small changes can make the Hull Dictator more accomplished and well used.

Valid

[hll]

Dictator is a unique hull that many players love specifically for the features you described. If you don't like it, there are good alternatives to it such as Titan and Viking, which don't have such an extraordinary shape and therefore will probably better suit your taste. But I doubt that Dictator's design will be changing.

Excuse me, what are you trying to say about potatoes? :angry:

Tomatoes are better. Potatoes don't taste great.

 

BTW, I feel that dictator looks visually appealing to most players, especially at m3. So I don't think it's design would really be changed.

Thanks for replies, anyway I love potatoes and eggs, Its my way to describe the shape of the Dictator. Both the items/instances are indispensable on our real life why not Dictator on tanki? if it is harsh I am very sorry to all. The known fact is the most beloved Hulls on Tanki is viking which can be used well on all map, vis-a-vis dictator is no where taking all the Hulls into consideration. If one take broad view and look at millions of Tanki players as well as all the Hulls they uses, easily can understand that Dictator is being used by very few players frequently, and it can be changed by changing few little things as I proposed.

Looking for more feed back on its balance!

I feel like stretching Dictator out would make it even easier to hit and even harder to drive. It's already about as long as a Mammoth and has difficulties maneuvering in tight spaces due to its bulk. Increasing the length would make it the longest hull in the game (very easy to aim at and hit at a distance) and make it very difficult to handle well in tunnels and other confined areas.

 

I haven't really encountered any balance issues when using it, so I don't think a change like this is warranted.

Honestly, I like the shape.

I find Mammoth to be annoying for part of the reasons you describe: Awkward hitboxes with a slower speed-to-armor ratio that rewards nothing but brute strength.

I prefer Titan or Dictator because they both have much more diverse gameplay than "Get on top of something. Camp. Die." rinse and repeat.

With Titan you have a much broader range of objectives you could fulfil, it makes a good tank for the attackers, but can be a more diverse defender.

Dictator can be a crack defender on the right maps with a nice balance of cover and open space, such as Farm or Esplanade.

 

Mammoth, however, is tough to deal with and even harder to play on the same team as.

It's nothing but selfish, having only armor and a limited usefulness outside of the occasional Vulcan or Shaft.

Simply put, Mammoth is way more selfish because it has less maneuverability and only works when camping.

Dictator is one of the most popular hulls, and its great. For some reason, I just suck really bad with viking and hate using it, Dictator I am good with.

So, dictator is good at catching golds. Don't try to use it for anything else. So don't try to use it to play battles? So you are saying to stay in battle and wait for golds to drop? You are encouraging mults? Wow.

That's not what I said.  I wrote that due to the fact that I don't use it ever, so I don't know what or how to use it.

Dictator needs only one change, and that is it's templates, or skin.
Like the devs did with hammer and vulcan. It would look way better imo.
I have lot's of ideas on how it could look like but I'm stuck with a chromebook... So no photoshopping spree for me ;_;

It's more like an M3 Lee.

Hunter = T-34

Viking = M1 Abrams

Wasp = Carro Armato L3/35 or T-24

Hornet = BT7

Titan = Matilda II

Mammoth = ??

 

Dictator = does look somewhat like an M3 Lee. Also reminds me of a fork-lift with the way those treads stick way out toward front.

I don't agree, Dictator is good the way it is, currently it's the Ultimate Gold Hunting Machine in Tanki Online, and should stay this way, because outside Gold Hunting, Dictator would have no use at all, it was rusting in my garage for years until Tanki gave it the HIGHEST power to push other Tanks and get the Gold, now my M3 Dictator can push all other M4 hulls wish is great for getting the gold (if it managed to survived long enough, with 2000 hp againts 4000 hp from M4 titans it rarely does if it got attacked during gold so you have to hide and hope for the best).

 

plus, it's current shape is really good for hunting gold, and it have such a weird ability to climb over other Tanks no other Hull have, in short words: Dictator is Magical, and i would love it to stay this way.

 

anyone who doesn't like Dictator should get Viking, as simple as that.

 

i have M4 viking, but honosly, i wish if i have M4 dictator because i only MU my viking for the Power not for the speed,Tanki changed paramtres so now i'm stuck with my light Viking.
