Patch Update #469 - Released 12th July 2017

[r_XTRO2 1]

Drugs will become extinct in 2018, and overdrives will rule the game. :ph34r:

... and then we need to buy overdrives, like $$$ for 1 week etc. You guys understand ?

[r_XTRO2 1]

This update makes the battle outcomes totally randomized. It doesn't matter of skills or tactics. The only way to be sure to win is to pay and buy. There is no fun for non-buyers but very fun for buyers.

Errr...

 

This update has made it much more friendly towards "free" players. I mean, everyone is now guaranteed to have the supplies effect thanks to Overdrive, and Repairs got nerfed hard.

 

So I don't know what game you're playing.

[r_XTRO2 1]

Don't worry, they will take away drugs later and you will buy overdrives. Get your money ready.

For this moment probably yes but they will make us to buy overdrives later and most likely remove the individual drugs. Free players will be toasted badly then.

Why not look on the bright side and enjoy having these free Overdrives while you can and stop complaining about stuff that hasn't actually happened yet?

Oh... I didn't realised you're a a troll and replied your post. How stupid I am.

I'm not a troll.

 

I'm merely pointing out the massive flaws in your complaints.

 

Speak to me in PM if you have anything more to say.

[r_XTRO2 1]

And that's the reason your game is FINISHED 

You do what you want , not what players want , and for that reason , we will all leave this !

Actually... they do what buyers want. They don't care the non-buyers leave as long as there are enough buyers to spend enough money. They are going on the route of optimizing it. That is their goal. It doesn't matter you or I or tens of thousands of non-buyers leave the game.

Y'know, battle outcomes have always been randomized, especially in higher ranks. There's always been lopsided team battles with all the saboteurs, AFKs, clueless folks, folks with weaker equipment, human errors, etc.

 

With that said, I'd be interested how the game would work if they removed the ability to give nearby teammates Overdrive boosts; it seems many people don't want to be terrorized by Wolf Packs, suggesting that Unbalanced Battles are still an issue.

Who says it will just be non-buyers that walk away?

 

I was stuck on 3rd Lt and kept getting absolutely hammered after this update.

Money doesn't enable me to do anything to address that, seeing as now everybody has drugs - or Overdrive, as they're now called.

And what's in the shop is no better than what I've already bought, until I go up another ten ranks.  Assuming I lived that long.

 

As far as I can see, the only people this is going to benefit is those who already have M3, who are now untouchable.

For everyone else, you'll never reach M3.

I will say that I like the animation but that's about it. Zero supplies are not necessary in this game. The timing is terrible. It looks as if buyers will have to come out of pocket even more. I don't like the update. You developers love listening to noob players who thinks every update is so cool. Experienced players know this update is terrible. The timing on these supplies need to return to the original time. I've played with these changes and it's terrible. If you want to keep this update then change the times for these supplies. The repair sucks really bad. It doesn't do what it's supposed to do. In fact, it doesn't seem to repair effectively like in times past. The double armor takes forever. By the time it gets ready, you're blown to bits. What did you guys do??? You messed it up...AGAIN!

Maf what economical this now helps us druggers not to  buy any more drugs. cause we now  get free ones ,every time you use the overdrive system . 

 

for the way you do use this system is like I said before. use one drug at a time and use pick ups as often as u can.. so you end up spending less drugs .. why buy even in battles ( TDM or others ) talk to each other and plan on who is using the system so it floats to each other and you seldom have to touch your drugs,,..

 

who is winning again is the druggers who wont have to buy now and the company looses on this system ..haha it back fired Dev's

[BlackWasp777 4,498]

IMHO this system leaves a certain advantage for buying druggers over free players (that is what they pay for) but the advantage became less with that update.

To me the balance between buying druggers and free players seems better now.

But of course the people used to drugs will not like it.

 

btw.. I like to have back my agile Wasp M3 from 2016... many many pleeeease with cream and cherry :) (but I know it is futile :p)

[Solvencher 351]

Bad Update!

I dont need anymore a healbox... i will lose everytime..

The new supply system leads to a different gameplay and different tactics.

You will learn it soon :)

I drug and still the gap to me seems the same against most free players, i've still seen many who do not drug and team failing to win as a result, in the end, the update is promoting team play too

Hated it the first five minutes.

Played for an hour.

Know exactly how to use it, used it with amazing outcomes thanks to no-one knowing how to use it yet.

It is simple to get used to, and requires a tad more skill than drugging old repair kits. People are just lazy to change.

I feel as if Overdrive was a bit unneccessary.  Sure, everyone gets an Overdrive, but only the most objective-minded folks will reap the most out of Overdrive.  

While the supplies nerf is a step towards encouraging good gameplay independent of drugs, the "gift" of Overdrive has ultimately negated such a possibility.

You destroyed the repair kit mechanics this really sucks, repair kit now restores only 1000hp when ur being attacked

And it doesn't continue restoring health after destroying the attacker!!!! really tanki really !!!!!!!!!!!!!.

[Hatty1994 819]

These stupid lame updates are the sole reason why players play Wasp/Fire to get rid of drug system. Right now, Wasp/Fire are the only source of completing daily missions along with capping flags/points in empty server with your friend & hiding behind fat tank with isida in battle mode-selected missions. 

 

WHOEVER THOUGHT OF THIS UPDATE MUST BE GARLANDED WITH TORN SHOES IN PUBLIC. SHAME ON YOU, DEVELOPERS !! 

[N3tralRE 282]

But hey, it's up to them to accept change and move on at their own pace (whether it be leaving or staying in Tanki).  They can't always change according to someone else's expectations.

Well now I've played for a couple of hours with the new update.  Congratulations the game is now well and truly ruined.

My supplies are now worthless, every game a just a brawl, tactics are out the window.

 

I suppose in time new tactics will evolve, but this will involve spending more and more money in order to stay ahead of the mob. 'Who spends wins' will be the creed. I left Goodgame Empire because Goodgame got too greedy and every new update involved spending a small fortune in order to stay viable.

 

Tanki is going the same way, as a beginner it won't be so bad but as you rank up and get sucked into the money machine you will find that if you don't spend money you will just spawn and die, spawn and die ad infinitum.

 

Reverse the update while you can Tanki, because if you don't I won't be staying and I suspect a lot of others will leave as well.

No one forces you to complete missions. If you don't like standard battles - don't join them and don't complete missions. Or just complete a quick and easy one and go back to custom games (PRO).

Daily missions are a great way to earn crystals and drugs (if required), you wont understand us because you buy crystals and get paid in crystals anyway... Pro battles are not good enough for earning lots of crystals and I rarely find pro-battles with a lot of players within them. Also, easy mission rewards are really bad (750- 350 crys, 9DD, 5 speed, 2 RK). Hence, non-buyers have to rely on missions for earning more crystals

Dude, check @Maf's profile. He left playing this game, may be afraid of Legend M4s & now preaching sermons here like he is a Tanki expert for some free crystals package being Moderator. In reality, these Moderators noobs will always support these developers otherwise how could they earn free crystals  :angry:
