Preventing M3s at Extremely Low Ranks

[Truthteller 4,204]

The guy at the two star rank should not complain and a non-buyer can have a good combo if he buys smart.

[BLASTER872 1,892]

It's definitely possible. I am no buyer and have a nearly M4 Thunder. The trade-off is that I am extremely patient and saved for nearly a year to do it. I also had to trade off diversity of game play to attack every sized map, enemy force, and battle mode with the same weapon. Because of the rank limitations on kits and equipment now, though, what I have done is impossible.

 

For M1/M2 transitions, it would make sense to do it on equipment which unlocks very low on M1 and very high on M2. Smoky, Wasp, and Titan come to mind immediately.

 

In fact, heavy hulls are a great platform to target a strategy like this, because I find them to be under-valued versus lighter eqpt.

Duh MUing M3s are possible... that's the point.

 

However, it would not be realistic to get an M1 kit at Sergeant and get it 50/50 MU (both M1s) without buying or collecting that monthly inactive reward

 

Over

 

And Over

 

And Over again

 

Right. Try doing 50/50 MU on everything before Third lt.

 

Buyers will have the bigger advantage, I agree with Maf here.

 

Just place a limit on how much you can MU something based on your rank.

Perfect!

Oh, and for everyone saying "buyers have everything", well guess what?

 

For a buyer to accomplish that, they'd have to pour in a few hundred dollars. I haven't even given ten.

But why do you need everything fully MUed? I just need Smoky MUed, then I'll get Fortress kit. Then, I'll get some other random M3 kit like Guardian or something, and after that I'll get Raiden. E-Z-P-Z.

[Amagi 1,728]

Remember when the devs promised balance? They threw that out the window when they opened Tanki X. Right now it's either this or get out.

Not for a f2p player. Infact, MUing for an f2p player is useless most the time. But, a buyer with MUed M2s or even MUed good M1s will umm destory you

Possibly. Which is why I make sure there aren't any abnormally high scores before I join a battle. Even so, if it's demolishing me, I just quit.

I know for a fact @GeeVuh doesn't buy into the game. If his opponents are unhappy about it, so what? It's their problem.

 

They clearly haven't planned their account as well as he had, and if they had they'd be in a similar position to him.

 

 

Life isn't fair. People just have to accept that.

While it is true that it's players' own fault if they don't manage their accounts well and a smart player like @GeeVuh can micro upgrade his turret to a certain level, but a player that buys many crystals can fully micro upgrade a complete combo, or two, or even three (perhaps a kit combo they purchased well before the required rank). That is where the big gap forms. Of course players should get something in return for the money they spend, because why else would they even spend money? But I do understand where players are coming from when they complain about micro upgrades giving a huge advantage. 

[Tofu 6,773]

there's many ways to explain to people how to solve the problem,"deal with it" is not one of them.

imagine each time you complain about lag a mod will reply "deal with it" since lag cannot be fixed easily.

This is why I don't complain about lag to the mods

yeah tanki have alot of lag issues now. I am experimented this with my friend alot of time.

It honestly doesn't matter when you have more than 1 combo MUed, you can only use one, and only one, combo in a game.

I'm seeing a lot of M4 combos at General, mainly smoky and viking. Since less people are online these days I guess we are left with mostly the "hardcore" players.

Oh yes, but it's nothing compared to a full M3 combo against WO1s.

[wolverine848 13,097]

Do we have to go over this again? Most supplies-off battles are xp/bp, a majority of the rest have no time limit, and the 1 or 2 good ones are in boring maps. Even so, should we be forced to play certain battles?

I can't believe the number of no-time-limit battles I'm seeing now. And many with supplies enabled.

 

Quickly jump into a battle when a spot opens up - then looking for clock to see how much time I have. Unlimited... yikes!

Giving too damn op equipment at low ranks = most attractive way to extract money from rich

 

Result- any idea or suggestion regarding to reduce the OPness will be discarded brutally..

What I don't understand is why if drugs give much more advantage than Fully MU"ing your combo, why they are so cheap.

Maybe because mues are permanent drugs are not.

Not really. When you get your M3 your M2 MU's disappear.

[asifmak 467]

And

Drugs + ordinary tank = powerful

Drugs + full mued tank = grim reaper stand out in crowd

Buyers don't prefer to buy only drugs because on lesser mued/ no mued tanks they do not shine in battle like they want cuz any ordinary player can do same.

But after fully muing their tank + drugging they devastates the battlefield and the feeling for the same is epic that drives them to spend that much amount of crys

Yup but you can say if u fully mued ur m2 at wo2 or another close rank u r free until u buy m3 of the same in higher rank.

Pretty close to permanent isn't it because rank gap is high

It honestly doesn't matter when you have more than 1 combo MUed, you can only use one, and only one, combo in a game.

It does though, it allows you to change your turret if the opponent has a module against it and vice versa. It also allows you to change your hull to a faster or stronger one if more attacking or defending respectively is needed.

Oh yes but for that much money you could buy enough drugs to last that long...

lol.

[tuffguy 7]

Im a noob buyer. Just deal with it.

I fully mued my combo. Just deal with it

I drug like hell. Just deal with it

My team win almost every battle. Just deal with it.

I have maybe good K/D ratio. Just deal with it.

[r_I_already_won0 2,339]

Im a noob buyer. Just deal with it. Thanks for funding the game I play. ;)

I fully mued my combo. Just deal with it Must have cost a lot, you deserve it. :)

I drug like hell. Just deal with it Why?

My team win almost every battle. Just deal with it. And you take most of their fund so it doesn't matter anyway....

I have maybe good K/D ratio. Just deal with it. *cough* doesn't matter *cough*

That's fine with me- but don't go spreading your insufferable arrogance all over the forum, thanks. If you want to brag and be selfish, by all means, you have plenty of opportunity to do it in real life where you don't have a "virtual" advantage over others. 

 

Also, I know some good counseling agencies to build up self-esteem- a good way to feel better about yourself without belittling others....I can give you the addresses if you want.
