Changes to Striker and a cool new format

[M4NG0 9]

Introduced striker hornet when everyone needed F/W/H lmao

We all know they aren't going to do that. We would love it, but Tanki hates it's real players.

Interesting changes

 

Clarification: reload speed more means more energy reloaded per second i.e. lesser reload time

[bigscott 71]

ok seen this but dont know what is meant by it F/W/H.  ??

Says reload speed not reload time, doesnt that mean it reloads faster? 

Exactly

[nahidb 48]

as long as the direction of the laser beam of the striker remains visible to the enemy its nearly useless ! , the enemy will still be able to dodge it in most of the situations , the striker definitely needs some more advantages . 

[wladixxx 5]

every gun should have it's format battle. If F/W/H would produce too many crystals then some constraints could be added for this format battle. but this would be fun for sure

• 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.

 

Reload speed increased means reload will be slower.

Reload speed increased means reload will be slower.

I don't think so.  If speed of something happening is increased it happens faster.  See Sagittarii further up.

 

Of course we are used to seeing "reload time" so the wording is a bit... ambiguous

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

 

does that mean the loading green focus or circle will still exist  for more time , and after the lost target reappears (for ex after 1 sec) it will still continue ?

(sorry english is not my 1st lang , that's why i'm confused )

[HAPPSHOT 2,029]

Awesome. Though its not a catchy update

If you will do this changes, you should decrease the self damage, otherwise striker will not be any good -_-

[destroyer-666 2]

Uh, why increase the time needed to re-lock onto an enemy if it's already awkward to even try that? And, I saw the update #431 list, why add more recoil to the Shaft? Could you give more specific information onto that? Like how much it used to recoil and how much this increase will be? Or even just where I can get the info, I want to know what are they doing to my turret bae.

I hope they change the hideous sound effects.

Any M3 Shaft users: Can you flip yourself when on the side again? Thanks. :)

Reduce loacking time and striker will not suck+ introduce heat seaking rockets which would flolow target bihind the buildings

[Slyl_tanker 7]

And has awful aim mate. Can't hit a mammoth sometimes.

 

Though I have yet to try the new striker out, definitely will sometime

Lol,if can't even hit a mammoth with striker it's your fault.You need to practise more :D
