Shaft Recoil

[stevepqr406 16]

For the last couple of days my shaft has no recoil or at least very little - I now can't shoot/jump or flip back if I'm on my side, is this a new 'feature' or just a bug?

This is the result of the new Global update, more info can be found here.

Shaft recoil has been reduced in the recent rebalance. Check this for more details: http://en.tankiwiki.com/Global_update_of_game_balance_for_Tanki_Online

I have Shaft M3 and have also experienced issues over the last 2 days. My Viking M3 will not right itself if on it's side when I shoot down. Also jumps down are not so easy to complete on Madness usually ending up on my back when just a few days ago, most jumps were successful.

Thanks for the update pointers - still seems odd, the shaft recoil 'new' values are in green indicating an improvement, how can effectively taking away two key features be an improvement? Also on the update table for shaft both the min damage and max damage in arcade mode have increase yet they are in green for min and red for max?

The reduction in recoil is useful during sniping (your aim won't go haywire after shooting if you're using Wasp) and lessens the chance of flipping when using a light hull, so it can be considered positive in those respects. I'd rather have the old recoil back, but I can live with it.
