Changes to Striker and a cool new format

[Mr.Ace 1,116]

Striker Hornet format? Seriously? Devs sure don't know what their 'customers' want but how can they earn 'money'. I can clearly see the strategy behind this, Striker wasn't much popular, It had a total dis-advantage in a battle and it was abandoned in esport, None used it in Medium/Hard whilst having it, the only specific reason for introducing The XC format is to increase the popularity of the turret and so that people who don't have Striker / Don't want to buy it, have the urge to buy the "Flop & Crap" Turret, Striker just to try out the new format. For gods sake, think about making updates WHAT THE PLAYERS WANT and Not those which can increase your BANK BALANCE. Players have been wanting W/H/F for ages and the answer was no, WHF is much popular, and i see no Specific reason for XC rather than a business strategy. These Updates that aim to make BANK BALANCE often Disappoint the player and are ruining TO. I wont tell you to make all "What players want" and earn less, balance it out,Some business strategies and others what players want. 'All we want is money' is the scheme devs are following and it has resulted in a great drop of players. Balance out the Demands of players and your income. If the "All we want is money" scheme continues, trust me, TO is going to a decline soon, and then they will realize their mistake but at that time, it will be too late.
 

P.s i want Hazel or someother Developer to answer this, Cedric can just answer it with ambiguous & uncertain reply as he is only the messenger and this is not his Duty/Work/Job, It is the Devs with whom I'm questioning, and i want the devs to answer, but they certainly Wont, as they cant counter this.

F/W/H is used for crystal farming and nothing else. If you want to crystal farm, you can do this with friends but brain dead powerleveling should not be an official format.

[Mr.Ace 1,116]

1. Im an esport player, i have myself no interest in F/H/W

2. The 'People' want it, the majority does.

3. It was just an example, there are several other things that i can list out, but since it is regarding Formats, it was one of the most suitable examples, idk if it has mass power level or what ever, Just an example.

4. I am trying to prove a point, which you cant deny, you just pick up 1 part of it (The least important example) and counter it. UNDERSTAND what Im trying to say.

Format battles are for skilled games, FWH requires no skill. Thats like replacing railgun and hornet with shaft and mammoth.

The Devs didnt make XC for "Format battles are for skilled games" They made it to make money ! re-read what i said ^_^

Please explain how adding a hornet and striker format makes them so much more money than F/W/H.

Yep, surely they have made it for money, it's their work and XC is quite fun to play. I got my striker m3 for 60 000 at sale and I'm satisfied. I'm sure you want to try that format too but also u don't want to pay full price for striker and that's why you are complaining :D.

• Increased grace period for recovering focus on a lost target when attempting to lock-on

• Angular velocity of rockets increased

• Reload speed increased

That sounds OP, I think reload speed is fast enough now. But I definitively agree for the first one, it is way to easy to escape a striker when he is trying to lock on.

 

Dude...

 

 

 

 

A Shaft or Railgun can counter in long and mid ranges against an opponet that is using Striker.

[thekamikasemonkeys 3]

Ok, anyone who things how so OP Striker is stop complaining. There are a lot of examples to counter someone that is using Striker, for example: You can counter a opponet that is using Striker by using Railgun or Shaft at mid-long ranges. To insta-kill someone with Striker: Go Shaft, use the damage drug and fully charge your Shaft and strike him off with fully charged Shaft shots.

EDIT: If you want to kill more of those who are using Striker more? Then upgrade your Shaft/railgun or buy M1, M2, M3, etc. of Shaft/Railgun.

i've lost intrest in Tanki as my main game in the last rebalance in Oct 2016 for multiple reasons, i was a buyer, but i saw that dev's have NO respect for our investments in this game (wheather its our time or our money) when they switch parametres when they want, and whenever they want, so i quit playing seriously,

 

striker format is a joke, nobody asked for it, and nobody want it, end of story.

 

if players want w/h/f mode give them the damn format, players are your most valuable assests, but make it WITHOUT funds just like parkour, and don't count the k/d on that format at all, so everybody wins.

 

that fomat wont be used for crystal farming at all (Tanki Dev's win) and players who truly love the format (not the crystal diggers) can play it (players win).

 

one last thing, don't be noob dev's , stop giving excuses, and :

The Shaft Auto-Aim angles need buffing, either the arcade mode, the sniper mode, or both. It is crucial.

 

Now you have situations where Thunders and others can just fire at the Shaft and Shaft won't be able to return fire at all. You can have people mockingly firing at a Shaft from a open space knowing they can't return fire. And then the Shaft is forced to move/ change spots.

 

It is too ineffective on a field for controlling areas. People should be concerned that "there's a sniper there". Not anymore. It's too weak. It has nothing to do with effectiveness over distance.

Well, would you look at that. Another one of those players who think that they can boss the *noob* devs around. Oh, how I love you guys...

I really don't see how defending a friend is *bos(s)ing me around*. It's a stupid argument against a perfectly backed up argument. And yes, I do call the TO devs a friend, though I don't know them personally. And stating facts isn't "trolling" as you so wrongly put it. It's just... stating facts.

OK,  format Hornet/Striker is officially dead. I wrote a few days ago, that this format will be shorter duration then D/R format.And to my regret, I was right. You can not find 1-2 battle in all servers, in top time, when  the most players in game.

OK, you find only one battle, on Island map. Best map for using Striker, most likely will be more self-destruckt than kills.  :lol:

I watched profile of my friends, and almost all have Striker, but most of them play only XP/BP format, in CP Polygon map. Most of the players who would actually be playing Hornet/Striker is XP playeri, but seem that fun of playing with Railgun, none turret can defeat

I love Striker either, but almost everybody of the game are complaining how OP is the weapon which is not to me either.

And what about the thousands of players ( - ) who have already bought "Striker"? Why they don't play XC format battles?

[G.R.O.V.E 453]

why is admin damn_slow 1st seargant???

[Tani_S 736]

And what about the thousands of players ( - ) who have already bought "Striker"? Why they don't play XC format battles?

because not all players that bought Striker

• watch the Vlog
• are online to the same time
• bought pro/premium pass
• bought Striker on M2 / M3 level
• know that XC format is the new striker format
• bought Hornet on M2 / M3 level
