Who's Ready For Those Hulls?

[felixbond 20]

So a few years ago. Tanki had an article discussing future plans, which included a version of Tanki in Unity, (sound familiar?) and new turrets and hulls.

 

The turrets discussed included a shotgun (DONT DO IT) a machine gun (if my memory serves me, could be wrong) and a homing rocket launcher (how lackluster that was).

 

But there were also new hulls discussed. What about a hovercraft? Super fast, highly unstable (poor xp/bp players, one more way to make your life miserable). And also a camper (as if we didnt have enough already), which picked a spot, dug its heels in, and stood there.

 

So which do you want most? Whats the best addition so far? (if you dont say hammer somethings wrong with you. I hate it because its the best, kills me every time. How bout dat range too?)

At the moment there are no plans to add more hulls. It simply isn't necessary. With turreta it's easy to come up with brand new, completely original concepts. New weapons have different gameplay mechanics and therefore compliment the game, adding variety.

 

This isn't the case with hulls. The only main difference between hulls is the armour and speed coefficient, with some smaller variations in size, manoeuvrability, stability, etc. They all have identical controls and nothing particularly special about them. Light, meadium and heavy hulls, with a couple variations for each category is plenty of choice for any player's preference. Adding a new hull that is faster or more armoured would be ridiculous, while a new hull "in between" the others would be too similar to the ones closest to it.

 

So yeah, unless they add some special abilities or something that would make each hull unique, I don't think any more should be added.

 

P.S.

Your last sentence confused me. Is this a topic about hulls or turrets??

[felixbond 20]

Well, first, the hulls being so bland is why new ones are needed. Thats why I liked the article so much: a special hull is needed. We need some variation other than what you mentioned. And Im pretty sure a hovercraft and a hull that can heighten its own armor at the expense of mobility is a cool new feature. And my last sentence, in the parenthesis was about the hammer. If youre reffering to my last sentence not in parethesis im reffering to which addition so far out of the list do you think is the best.

P.S. Stop trying to confuse me with big words like coefficient. Just because i sound dumb doesnt mean i am dumb.

XD

 

P.s. You're cracking me up while barking up the wrong tree.

This post has gone very off topic. How about actually answering the questions and having a civilized discussion not involving ones anothers intellectual abilities, whether they are lacking or not. Two can play at the big word game. And i made it sound like i have no idea of the separation of grammar and mathematics in that comment. Fixed now

It would be cool, yes, but it wouldn't fit in with the rest of the hulls at all. Before special hulls like these can be added, the rest of the ones already in the game need to be either replaced or changed so that each one is also equally unique. Otherwise it will be just weird - 7 common hulls on tracks and then a bunch of weird, wacky vehicles which don't even look like tanks anymore.

None of the words I used are particularly complicated. The word "Coefficient" is common knowledge for most people, who at least finished school. Just because I said a long word doesn't mean I'm trying to confuse you or make you look dumb  :)

Or at least add some minor XT equipment at the M2 level.
