Let's Discuss Magnum!

I like a challenge - I bought Striker instead.  Unfortunately it sits in my garage until I can afford Striker Protection... :(

Forget about striker protection, i barely see it around anymore.

Invest your crystals somewhere else.

If you use a Striker you want Striker protection to minimize self-damage from close shots.  That is by far the single largest source of damage.  In my striker account it is the only protection I have. 35% striker protection for cheap instead of 25% against two more for a LOT more Cry.

I will never support that Bad Design Decision. It should just be deleted from the game. (I know this will not happen.)

It's there to exploit. Even though the EULA rules don't allow players to exploit bugs in the game, it's not our fault that the developers brought a parabolic shooting camper machine between all the native turrets.

It's like introducing the Zebra Mussels into the Great Lakes.  One of the worst Russian exports - EVER.

I do not blame players for using what Tanki provides. If a gaming company does not minimize an exploit it becomes a feature. I just meant I will not use the thing.  (I did in a new account to see how it works but that;s it.)

Remove all splash damage from Magnum. All of it. Maybe then will I consider Magnum players skilled when they hit something.

I can get down with this, most of my shots are direct hits anyways. A thousand damage per direct hit would make it similar to Shaft.

Magnum is like Rico. When u buy it newly it seems to be a waste. But after using about some 30-35 hours u will love those turrests. It matters on our use magnum needs perfection and takes much more time to master unlike other turrets

And we all know now that is utter nonsense. When Tanki introduced the turret they said it would be "very difficulty" to use. Well that is called: hype.  They lied.

 

Magnum is the easiet turret to use in the game., It has a different way to use the same keys for every other tank. That is "different" not "harder"  Basicalklly it ises the same system a million golf games have used and those games are not hard.

 

I have to AIM my shots. I have to risk taking damage to inflict damage.  Magnum doesn't

 

The PROOF Magnum is the easiest OP turret in the game is the fact that with every month more and ore tank in each battle are Magnums.  If it was so damn hard to play as Magnum owners say then you would not see so many medicore players using Magnums.

I have completed this whole weekend giveaway by using M3 Magnum. The Magnum turret is king on the battlefield when equipped with double damage. Magnum is the best turret for completing giveaways. From now on, I shall always use Magnum for completing weekend giveaways whenever they are available.

this is good proof, sadly <_<

[T-34-3m 360]

Magnum comes down to luck, memorization, and map placement. That's it. The enemy can try taking a flanking route through an area that's covered by me while I'm distracted with a turret with high impact force, but I can still kill them. I can defend myself. That turret, which should be a counter by all rights, is nothing. I am the counter to HIS entire strategy. That's not balanced, that's overpowered.

[RIDDLER_8 5,552]

The developers did not lie when they said that Magnum was hard to use. At first, I found Magnum hard to use because I did not know how to set its power level when holding the spacebar. Now that I know how to properly use Magnum, I can destroy a light and medium hull with double damage when enemies don't have double armor equipped. Magnum can immediately destroy a light and medium hull when re-spawning. That's amazing.

 

From now on, I will always complete 2000+ kills giveaways with Magnum, so that I can earn the top reward tier within the 48 hour time period of the giveaway.

 

By the way, there should be turret and hull giveaways for future giveaways.

Whats better magnum or railgun please tell me why

You undo your claim with your comments about how easy a time you had amassing 2000 kills. If the turret was hard to use, you would not have an easy time amassing those kills. 

 

SMH.

Guido gets it. The surest sign of OP in gaming is watching all the gamer flock to use the OP feature. Ladies and Gentleman: presenting Magnum Tanki Online's OPPOS.

T-34-3m gets it perfectly. The problem with Magnum is it is not just another enemy tank. It is a strategy-changer. The enemy team isn't worrying about getting the flag. They have to worry about killing the Magnum.

 

Magnum is a bad joke of game design.

Magnum. Statistically and performance wise Magnum is the new Vulcan.

[splitterpoint 10,986]

Exploit this thing while it lasts, I'm still pretty confident that they'll bring in a big nerf although it's taking longer than I expected.

[RIDDLER_8 5,552]

I have seen some annoying players that keeps on complaining about Magnum being overpowered. That is not true because Magnum can destroy light and medium hulls with 2 shots without double damage and 1 shot with double damage. Developers said that Magnum is supposed to be the most powerful turret of them all, but keep a reasonable damage output to avoid disrupting the game's balance.

 

Magnum is supposed to destroy a light and medium hull with 1 shot when using double damage. This advantage can really make sure that the player gets enough chance to make an epic kill with only 1 shot. When I completed the weekend giveaway 5, (2000+ kills) I only used Magnum with double damage to destroy light and medium hulls on impact. So now you see and understand why Magnum must be strong enough to do an epic kill with 1 shot.

 

So, Magnum must not become nerfed, nor buffed. It must remain as it is currently is.

 

What I suggest developers do, it to make some alterations which will alter the parameters of Magnum, but keep the same level of power between damage and reload output parameters. That's all.

 

Thanks for understanding.

It can destroy them without it if it hits dead center. They also have be unupgraded or the same modification level as them.

[RIDDLER_8 5,552]

I know.

Please decline this topic, then close it.

 

Discussion has run out.

[Amagi 1,728]

 

Back on topic. Seems that Magnum is the kind of gun that stops being annoying once you put protection against it.

 

Still hurts tho.

Riddler as I have said before you are so consistently bad at understanding game design principles I assume you are engaged in a form of very dry snark. 100% of your comments boil down to : Evry bit of gear I, Riddler, use should be made uber-powerful. If it is not snark it is really sad.

 

Since every single discussion topic on turrets and hulls has been open for months I do not think you are going to get your wish to shut down criticism of your latest OP crutch.

he can kinda get annoying sometimes tho. a true comedian would leave hints of sarcasm/comedy in their writing. if riddler was here to amuse us with his stupidity, then either he has a great disguise or hes totally serious.

 

in my opinion its the latter.

do you get angry with a 6 year child if he says things which don't make sense? Riddler seems to be only a few years older than that, don't be too harsh on him. One day he will grow up too.

does a 6 year old child attempt to make serious conversation discussing a controversial topic in something people are passionate about?

 

its like a 6 year old going up to trump asking him to ban guns, its cute but it wont sway him one bit.

Actually I complemented Riddler. I have said many times I assume he is performing disguised snark. That is a complement to his snark skills. OTOH as the "annoying poster" he alluded to ... well I ganerally shoot back when shot at. ;)
