So, a smokey m1 at the other side of the map will do 27 damage, 33 damage, and then 350 damage on critical?

That's what it sounds like. Except mine on my WO4 will do 450 :D :wub:

It might - if it's lucky.

 

Or it could do 28...20...22...31...25...23...22...350.  That's averaging 65/shot.

 

With 1-in-5 chance it would avg ~ 90/shot.

Thunder with it's 50% "weak" damage will average over 250/shot.

 

So Smoky will no longer be pathetic at long range - more like - somewhat useful.

I guess what they said is missions for these 3old maps won't be available. But I could be wrong :)

ALL map-specific missions are gone... not just those.

How much will the critical damage be for M3 smoky?

 

First update in half a year that has not had 1 detrimental aspect. A step in the right direction.

Smoky buff is really good, returning of the maps is really good.

 

Removing of the map missions is good for people who refuse to buy pro pass cheap or not but it would be nice if people with pro passes could get them so that the lesser played maps will still be played on a little bit.

I predict a wave of drugging smoky campers coming after this update.....

You are often camped by enemies firing at you from a distance over 100m? Because this change improves Smoky at very long range but not much or none at shorter ranges.

Map missions needed to be removed and hopefully reworked at some future date. They did not work as well following the new battle creation system. Time will tell, but for now this is the RIGHT MOVE.

 

Pretty happy about the maps and look forward to playing on them. Also pretty happy about the slight Smoky buff.

Can you guys change the name of the PRO pass to something else, like the Battle Pass? Because being a professional has nothing to do with buying a PRO pass.

I agree, but for different reasons.

 

I'm new at Tanki and I can say that at the beginning it seems confusing the difference between Premium Account and the use of the word PRO.

 

I think it would be more self-explaining and appropriate if it was called PRO Battles Pass'.

 

Apart from that, there is one setting missing in the PRO Battle creation settings, one that would make me want to get a PRO Battle Pass or a Premium Account: A switch to select the maximum modification level of hulls, turrets and modules for the battle you want to play, for example 'M1 & Less' or 'M2 & Bellow', and so on, where the battle could be called something like 'Polygon CP M1-', or now 'Deck 9 CTF M2-'. Just a thought.

 

... and the opposite could work too, if you don't want mults or whatever, 'Canyon TDM M2+' anyone?

 

... wait, wait, how about 'Rio CTF M2', for M2s only? ;)

New (old) maps are pretty great! I'm not a big fan of Magadan, but the other two (Deck-9 and Canyon) are fantastic.

 

I guess we'll have to see how the Smoky buff plays out. At extreme ranges, it might turn out to be better than Thunder due to the complete lack of damage dropoff on crits. I guess it's still inconsistent enough that a Railgun or Shaft will be a superior choice at sniping distances. At least I hope that will be the case. I'm not interested in getting Smoky'd from across the map by a stray shot while using Shaft.
