Patch Update #469 - Released 12th July 2017

Topic merged

Yep, lost in the crowd.  :(

[D.a.n.t.e 475]

My idea is a good compromise: 

 

Life Boost

 

2000 HP (no extra healing)

100 crystals

(maybe smaller cooldowns like for the other supplies)

 

And double the amount of the Repair Kits we have in our Garages.

 

You can't have it all people, the old Repair Kit was OP, and this one is UP and causes imbalance.

 

To balance Overdrives, cooldowns could also prevent you from picking up or receiving supplies from shared Overdrives, for example: 

 

You use a Double Armor, it lasts 40 seconds, then a cooldown of 20 seconds could also prevent you from picking up or getting Double Armor from Overdrives, even if you activate an Overdrive. Repair Kits ans Mines, 20 seconds after pick up, use or received.

As unpopular as the update was, these suggested tweaks are definitely a good step forward (out of 100) towards winning over the ANGRy players.

Way to go with the repair kit.

Agreed. The change to teh RK is a good change. Now you have to think a tiny tiny amount. Oh God-Damn No! Not think! Please don't make me think!

 

Too bleepng bad for the bad players. If you cannot adjust to this change you are a bad player. There are no exceptions.

I find the fact that you can activate all three supplies at once far far worse than repair kit. It's not that hard to use, for crying out loud. So many people are complaining that they no longer can mindlessly charge in and become invincible with the 1 key. 

 

Before, because the smart cooldowns were quite long, if you wanted to drug you had to choose between double damage and double armor. You could choose when and then activate repair kit immediately after if needed, but you could not have both DD and DA at the same time (well you could, but only for 15 seconds when your cooldown expired). Now however, that is not that case. You can have both enabled, so there really is no reason for you not to enable one of them the first chance you get. I see so many players engaging double armor or damage immediately once they see an enemy, since they know they also can get another supply in after that. All this drugging, combined with Overdrive and the fact that there is no cooldown on Overdrive, means playing without drugs is very hard. You have to drug to stay competitive. Very annoying.

To be fair, many "invincible" players have flocked to this new Overdrive superdrug since the devs cracked down on Repair Kit abuse (all this suppky talk eerily reminds me of real life substance abuse).

 

As much as Overdrive's side effects include erratic, destructive behavior, I think Tanki's devs installed Overdrive to avoid a potentially worse (?) epidemic of Supply withdrawal sweeping across tankers.

 

Regardless, the current epidemic of RK withdrawal reveals the grim state of hooked tankers.

Knew it would upset people. Not really saying it's good but I'm not a buyer. Edited July 21, 2017 by Amon166

I agree with this, but they shouldn't return the Smart Cooldown, at least not for now.

 

The solution could be adding 5 seconds cooldowns between supplies, that way people don't mindlessly press 2 or more buttons at once. This on top of the cooldowns for the same supplies.

Either change the update or SHUT DOWN the game --- Enough is enough  :angry:

[hatealien 138]

I liked this update, it seemed to give a better balance to the game, especially with the changes to repair kits. It's so anti.climatic when you are on a duel with another tank and you both activate repair kit, basically wasting the time you spent attacking the foe before activating it

This Overdrive #1 (all supplies or AS or or OD1) would be only for one Hull in the near future, therefore what you see now with every hull able to use OD1 (= a fest of Supplies) will not happen later as 6 additional more overdrive will be added to the game (one for each remaining hulls). Even even one OD will be able to counteract the OD1. So it seems unbalanced and OP now, but this would be diluted in the future. Aslo the shield OD would reduce the OPness of the OD1.

Yo Liar! (aka I.Q_O)

 

I only use bought supplies for the following purposes:

1- when the opposing tank uses it first

2- and/or when the other team puts more mults onto my team than is on theirs (almost never any on theirs, or only 1)

3- and/or when I have been hacked

4- and/or when I am trying to get my D/L back to what it was before the massive multing started happening...

...otherwise, I never use bought supplies even when my team is losing and/or I'm individually not doing well.

[i haven't brought my K/D back up to 3.5 so I'm going to continue to drug for reason #4]

Lies damn lies. Find some more feeble minds (i.e. dumber than a bull's tail) to convince of your greatness.

[mattb1853 50]

Hey for starters this makes drug life a lot harder for u guys who spend 10, 20, 30 k on drugs i hope it serves you right. Tanki knows drugging has been an absolute, no no giving to us that have to live ur endless and non skilled drugging. The heal used to make u invincible when drugging but that has changed. Get a life Mr. I play seven years

[Defense 25]

Listen to your buyers at your peril. The F2Ps outnumber them 10-1.

Who cares about F2Ps? They don't pay Tanki employees, and people don't just work for free... Buyers are what Tanki needs to sell their product to. If tanki doesn't believe me, then we will see how many players will purchase the Weekend Bundle. It will be doubtless less than usual.

Watch the damn Vlog. They made and market their game for F2P, not P2W. If they run out of money, (which they won't BTW because everyone want to buy GB and kits) they can turn to crime for all I care.

Wasting repair kits at an insane rate. This update in plainly bad.
