May Holidays, Sales and Goodies Coming!

why you cant do nothing for non pro battles?sad to see that u quit from old players.....this is from bad update to worse you can easily see that pro battles are full and non pro are mess.......but yea keep forcing kids to play them and to waste moms $$$$

sad sad days for tanki i even miss days when it was seample and crystals were dropin from sky those was last good days for tanki .....game will probably never die but we all know that you guys lossin players.....

24.99 USD for the bundle, what a greedy Corporation you are.

 

The only good bundle I ever see in Tanki is the first one with 7 days premium, 5 gold, and 100k Crystal.. and only for 19.99USD.

 

now 24.99 and with less stuff in the bundle.

 

I think you don't realize that people around the world are not the same level of sustenance. so if Saudi Arabia or Kuwait or UK can pay this easily, it's normal ( they are rich ) but here in Morocco or some other relatively poor countries. we can't.

 

But we want play and enjoy like others. and we can pay too. but if prices in Tanki are half what it is now.

 

I hope you find some solution for this like targeting geographic locations.

I couldn't activate the zero supply in the map lost temple. I tried leaving and reentering the game twice, restarting my computer twice but it still didn't work. everyone else in that battle could do it and i could do it in every other map as well. please fix this... I got my friend and me killed a few times trying to activate it while around her  to save her by spamming on the shift button after arranging to meet...

You must wait until the indicator at the bottom of your screen (shown below)  grows up to 100% then press the Shift key.  It goes up everytime you make a kill/cap a flag etc.

The is a glitch in the Zero Supply. When "One" gold dropped 3 tankers took it all at once. What is going on? Is it because the guy who took the gold applied the zero supply and so the gold he got also somehow glitched and other ppl got it or was it a hack?

What do you mean '3 tankers took it'? Were there 3 notifications? Do you have a screenshot?

The main complaints about Zero-supply seem to be about spawnkilling and drugger dominance....but what's new??. The game's had these two issues for years.

 

Drugger dominance is inevitably more likely in the early stages of this Zero-S concept. I'd assume that once most people get smarter about using the feature this might not be such a problem..Besides, people are getting free boosts here, where in normal non-PRO mode they might have very limited drugs to use.

 

Zero-supply builds up for each player as they score right?

 

So for teams that are struggling the learning curve won't matter. They just won't be building up enough score to move the meter fast enough.

And opposite is true for the team not struggling - they will move the meter much faster and thus become more omnipotent.

The idea to have the auto-finish kick in is somewhat helpful - in that it shortens the misery.

 

The overlying problem is that Zero-supply helps the rich get richer.

 

Another possible solution is to even it out entirely. Make the meter time-dependent. it keeps moving based on time - so even if you can't kill those already powered up enemies, you are still building up toward your "enhancement".

I know! as i said i could do it on every other map!!! it was 100% but nothing happened when i pressed shift on lost temple!

It already does this. Earning experience makes it increase faster though.

This is where the imbalance is happening though.  The more powerful gain it faster and it increases the imbalance even further.

I agree, but I don't think making it a time-based only option is the right solution. I think it would cause (some) players to wait around in their base until they can enable it.

I feel like the zero supply update is a bad idea because it makes supplies even more powerful and influential. I used it to catch a gold box earlier which I wouldn't have got otherwise.

I think its better than buying drugs

I know, It just makes it better for drugging buyers!

Zero supply bar should stay after the event. That would be so much fun.

[LittleWillie 3,199]

Zero Supply is yet another example of how "More" Is Not Always "Better".

 

I have considerable complaints about some turrets and hulls etc. But none of that matters compared to two major recent changes: Cutting missions from Pro Battles and expanding the ranks allowed to compete. We should be happy Zero Supply  was tried because this has acted as an accelerant. The bad effects of those two changes are magnified under the power of Zero Supply.

 

It is very hard now to find a battle that (A) matches against reasonable ranked opponents and ( B ) is not a blowout for one team.

 

The effect of Zero Supply is to increase the odds any given match will result in a blowout. (Yes, Tanki has had this problem before Zero Supply. 0S makes a bad situation worse. That is not good no matter how hard it is spun.)

 

It is good to be on the winning side in a blowout but in practice the winning team outnumbers the losing team so you cannot join the winning side. You have to join the losing side or jump servers. With 0S joining the losing side means being spawn camped and slaughtered. ... such joy.

 

Last night on three different accounts I jumped to every EN server, the DE and PL servers, and about 10 RU servers ... and failed to find a single decent game to join. Not a single game. This afternoon with even more players online those same three accounts came up with no good games to join. None.

 

So that is what I mean about all other issues fading into irrelevance. If I can't find a matchup that is fun nothing else matters.

the zero supply is a nice feature..., but wasnt the problem that people were using supplies non stop?

 

i totally agree  LittleWillie i couldnt find a battle that i wanted to join unless i was joining with a bunch of legends who would be using zero supplys....

 

 

Can i use zero supplys while constantly respawning?

Well part of it was this but since players were also complaining about them not having many drugs to use in NON-pro battles, this is like a ''free'' drugs for players who have less drugs or just want to save their drugs even tho it is just a mode that will only stay in 9 days, maybe it will be re-introduced in the near future depending on the feedback players give or maybe we will get a new version of it, well whatever the case will be, let's wait. :)

The zero supply has a timer so you can use it whenever you want as long as the bar is fully loaded, if you want to use it more faster than you have to capture flags, get experience quickly, etc. The more experience you get in short time, the quicker the bar will fill and the quicker you will be able to use this feature.

[realbigred 101]

Wouldn't it have been better if the zero supply feature actually did that i.e. cancelled out the use of suppliers for a fixed period (40secs like supplies) which would rob the druggers of their advantages and would force them to rely of skills until the effect timed out.  

 

naming a function that gives you and your mates all supplies, "Zero ?Supply" seems a bit of a misnomer

Same exact thoughts crossed my mind.

Problem is - if you keep dying from those ahead of you, then you "build" up 0S much, much slower. Others might snag it 3 or more times while you are lucky to get it once.

The drugs is unbalanced but I do like the concept of sharing the power with other teammates.They should do something else in the future involving that.

@Cedric Debono If developers want to give more priority to non-PRO battles, then increase the cool-down timer of supplies to make the game balanced.
