A problem to Double Armor.

[r_SmoglessYeti7560 0]

Hi! I just noticed that Double Armor doesn't increase armor, but decreases damage. I need the developers of Tanki Online to make it double the armor but not decrease the damage. I'll try not to collect the Double Armor supply until the problem is fixed.

But... what is the difference with that exactly? :p doesn't it work the same way..?

So because of a completely pointless detail that you cant even prove is true, you arent going to pick up any da boxes?

Not until the problem has sovled, and it doesn't work the same way than it should be.

Well spotted! Though this isn't really a problem and doesn't change how long it takes to destroy a tank with double armor equipped. It's just a matter of how you look at it:

• You can say that the damage indicators show how much damage you deal to an opponent. If you enable double armor, opponents will inflict less damage.
• You can also say that it shows the amount of hit points that are being taken away from the tank with each shot. If you enable double armor, fewer hit points will be taken away with each shot.

In other words, the damage indicators show how much damage you deal AND at the same time how many hit points the opponent loses.
It's not called Double Hit Points for example, your tank will basically be given an extra armor, which means less damage will actually reach your tank.

Double armor halves the damage you take, is that not what it should do? Or should it completely double your tanks hp, mess up repair kits for heavy hulls and instantly kill you if you have less than half health when it runs out. Seems silly to not pick up boxes over something so pointless, but ive seen dumber reasons for sabotage.

So you define "armor" as your "tank's health", right? 

 

Think of it this way; Double Armor is an extra shield for your tank that can further protect you from damage.  As an example, knights typically wear a set of armor for protection.  In addition to that, knights may bring a shield to protect themselves from arrows, swords, etc.  However if a knight loses his shield in battle, they only have their suits of armor for protection

 

Similarly, Double Armor is a SECOND layer of protection that further supports your tank's Armor (hence Double Armor).  Once Double Armor wears off, you will only have your tank's main layer of armor for protection.

 

I hope I helped clarify things for you.

I take it you've ignored others' advice about Double Armor, and will continue demanding for Double (Health Points) Armor, no?

He wasn't first to spot it, he was only the first one to complain because of such issue.
