Patch Update #469 - Released 12th July 2017

[RIDDLER_8 5,553]

I am glad that the overdrive is back as a permanent feature in Tanki Online.

 

Will the overdrive have more features in the future?

 

For example, a magnet to magnetize gold boxes.

In my opinion, you should completely take activating supplies out of the game, and if not, at least make it so people cant buy them, but just get them when they have collected a drop box, and then collect the same box  while that supply is still activated, then you would get in the supply panel. Also, that health update is very good. As in isida, its annoying when I have almost killed someone and then they health. 

 

The game is becoming very complex since I started playing, and I worry about the beginners not understanding. add some of these features into the tutorial! Other than that, still having fun .

I do not agree with the Overdrive feature addition.
It basically defeats the purpose of not being able to just press 234 whenever you want. Also, one player can be winning a battle against a couple other players and then they can just press *shift* and win the battle. It kind of defeats the purpose of the idea of strategy and skill in tanki online.

Overdrive completely alters the dynamics of every battle in this game (non PRO). On a macro level it turns battles into just one pack after another rushing each other's spawn, and on a micro level going against another player and having no way to see if they have god mode ready to activate removes strategy from the encounter and replaces it with luck. I tried playing both previous rounds of OD with an open mind, but the battles just turned into a simple if you had god mode activated you live and if you dont have god mode activated you die. Its ridiculously overpowered and completely overshadows almost all other strategy in the encounter.

As I said in my previous reply (and I probably should have multi quoted), overdrive actually simplifies and dumbs down the game. In any reasonable sense, there is no beating someone who has double damage double armor and speed boost activated and a recent heal to full health, unless you are lucky enough to have it saved up at that moment too. So again the game comes down to if you have god mode on, you win. If you dont, you lose. Its one step closer to rock/paper/scissors.

G, you can change in settings.

[tankerkuldeep 739]

Don't like zero supply at all.

[Germanwarrior1 16]

Overdrive is a good way to level the playing field so that buyers don't have an unfair advantage over non-buyers, everyone can use Overdrive and that's a good thing.

Well, only my first battle in and Repair Kit is literally a 150 crystal waste of time and crystals. It heals 1000 HP and if you take any damage what so ever during that 3 seconds it stops healing and doesn't comeback, even if you are not taking damage. Defeats the purpose, no? Its worth like 50 crystals now.

 

Here is a better option for Repair Kit. It heals 1000 HP instantly, then it keeps healing at 400 - 500 Hp per second till it has healed either 4000 HP, or the tank has reached full health. It's kind of like back in 2013. It's still possible to kill the enemy if they aren't careful and activate it too late, but it also doesn't nerf it into the ground and make it a 'run and hide' supply which is useless right now.

How many repairs you have bought on full price, 150 crystals?

I am very happy that the overdrive feature has made a comeback to Tanki Online as a permanent feature. Thank god for that.

 

The overdrive has some amazing new visual effects when activating it and also when activating individual supplies as well. The sound effects of supplies upon activation is also a good feature to have but the sounds should be a bit louder and sharper because when there are lots of tanks firing at once, the sounds are not loud enough to be heard.

 

The re-spawn is now quicker and the new re-spawn location is now slower. That makes it easier to spot the drop zone of a dropping gold box when getting killed and re-spawning. Well done.

 

The gravity on moving and jumping tanks seem to be in low gravity. Is Tanki Online now in permanent low gravity?

 

The re-coming of the overdrive feature has created a bug which has been triggered. This bug is the critical error called "An error has occurred" and this bug now appears at every passing round and causes players to constantly lose their battle progress.

 

This bug is a huge concern and should be fixed as soon as possible. It causes loss of battle fund and progress for the players. Please find all critical errors related to the overdrive and fix them as quickly as you possibly can.

 

Thank you.

Sure, after the release of first animated paint in tanki, they decided to release the 'Overdrive' supply in order to satisfy non-buyers or normal players who couldn't afford the paint, mhm nice just believe me this game will die within few years, not so long.

That's so true.

lol, the notifications are annoying and useless. If I wanted to be bombarded by notifications, I would get on facebook instead of tanki. Stupid update.

 

Bring Madness back already. Best map you have and you got rid of it.

I also like the new function and cooldown of the repair kit. Now the repair kit can restore up to 1000 HP and then slowly restores the rest of the damage until you get hit by a shot. This is a good feature that prevents overpowering of the repair kit. I also has a benefit for annoying players who abuse others by continuously using the repair kit to stay alive and those poor players who tries to earn kills, get none. Another advantage of this type of repair kit is the ability to kill enemy tankers during a gold box hunt. Many players who are under the gold box, about to catch it will use a repair kit to stay alive and catch that gold box. Now with this new overdrive feature, the repair kit effect is stopped upon enemy fire, even when your enemy is about to catch that gold box. From now on, enemies who are under repair during gold box hunts will now successfully die. Another good thing that I just noticed, is that players can now earn much more kills in battle and also the battle fund grows faster, and at the end of each battle round, players will all manage to earn a bigger share in crystal funding.
