Patch Update #469 - Released 12th July 2017

[LittleWillie 3,199]

Actually a railgun m4 average shot is more powerful than a railgun m0 + double damage

 

The power of drugs are not as overpowered as you suggest, drugs are for a limited period of time, they are easily accessible to non buyers and buyers so it cancels out anyway its not like the other player can not drug back

 

The tragedy of the average American's inability to understand simple math is on display here.

 

A tank with DD/DA u[ is four times as powerful as the same tank w/o them active/ That is OVER POWERED. It means the best driving, the best aiming, the most shrewdly timed shots ... all mean nothing when faced with 4x power and plus speed and repairs. The game is about thinking about how to use supplies, not about how to fight your tank. That means OVER POWERED.

 

I am going to stop now. You can try to teach a rock math, but it just annoys you and the rock.

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.

 

Nonsense. The players with more drugs will still do better. That means they will activate Overdrive sooner whichg means they wil maintain their lead. They may well get 4-5 Overdrive uses / match to your 2 or 3.  

 

The guy with the ost still has the most and now he gets even more added to his most.  

 

The devs are trying to create a game where you must have all three drugs up and active all the time or you cannot possibly succeed in battle. They think this will force players to buy Supplies from the Shop. That is the one thing consistent with Tanki. They constantly think they can force and browbeat their customers into giving them more money.

 

Maybe that works with Russians. It does not work not people who grew up in Western economies ... where the customer is respected. 

 

The fact is: Tanki offers me nothing worth paying a single dollar. The game never changes from Recruit to Legend except for the fact drugging gets more and more prevalent the higher you go in rank.  And that is a reason to NOT rank up. (Seriously. Tanki would be pretty much the exact same game if there were no player ranks and no different m-levels for equipment.) So there's no incentive to buy anything ever.

 

Tanki you want better income? Give us an actual GAME.

Are you implying that magnum takes skill to use?

Yes it does. You cant see behind you and half the time you're retreating. If you think magnum is a noob gun come suck mine.

 

You don't need to use skill to use Magnum. You need a sharp brain for quick calculation about location of your enemy. Adjust your magnum angle & shoot with accurate force percentage. You will be invincible if you do that. You need your guessing ability to test with this equipment "MAGNUM". 

Lies. If I were invincible with Maggie, my KDR would surely have gone up from .83, right?

 

@bozo88 How many gallons of saliva you acquired before writing all these comments ?? My foot salutes your tongue's unique power. This must be one of multiple accounts of   :ph34r:

I am proud to be promoted from undercover game dev to sockpuppet of Nelson. Good lord jesus.

Try to remember I'm a dev in disguise who had my cover blown 6 months ago. (insert choice words about your intelligence)

Aww foolish kid hiding in alternate accounts  :rolleyes:

[LittleWillie 3,199]

Yes - change it up.  If only to reduce the monotony.

 

And pump up a medium hull - the boost in armor more than makes up the difference of speed on many maps.

Not if you have a need for speed. :) 

 

If you enter garage before your tank becomes potent (opacity becomes full and you can start firing) you will not have to self destruct. You can even use it to spam the respawn if you don't like where you respawned.

Eh wot? i have to try this.

[Hatty1994 819]

Looks like Tanki will reverse supplies update as

says .. Let's see. They need tons of money after all.

I thought it said "revised stats" for supplies. 

[Hatty1994 819]

Yes "revised stats" means probably they gonna change something in supplies area.

that will take time untill enemy came and got killed  :P  :D

I hope they add to the profiles how many ODs used.

[ganesha-1 75]

Just two words tanki ... YOU ROCK

[Hatty1994 819]

Naah bro, if you have a strong back-up like isida behind a magnum, he will kill everyone easily  B)

[leonny-boy 12]

overdrive, u kidding me?

Guys, After the Summer holidays and if i lose my 4th week mission then the Quit is going to be here. I had enough of these terrible updates, They just making moneys! They do not care about other people. Well is it over "Tanki Online" now GTanks is Even better than this! and i want all you write this "Tanki Gonna Die!" I AM SO ANNOYED! ~Tricked

[AmonNAmarth 63]

and do you have any idea of what could be changed ?? 

[Hatty1994 819]

and do you have any idea of what could be changed ?? 

After so many outrage, probably they gonna increase to 2000 HP instead of current 1000 HP & may be some change in cool-down timer. But if they do nothing, only show us a documentary video about this stupid patch update, then its worthless to give a view to this YouTube link. You will get to know about weekend giveaway here in this forum  :rolleyes:

I think they may do an emergency patch, but I think (from a business and science perspective) they will wait until after the weekend to gather more data on usage etc. Jumping in to fix something blind will just break more stuff.

I've been thinking about that.

[Haters_MakeMe_Famous 0]

You should do a poll vote. Which erver side win's we'll go with that. Because the players will play this game not the Dev's. Fire and freeze are super OP now. I mean if you're at their base and you got the flag you're obv gonna get hit. It take ages to heal fully. This is the worst update. You dont give give a dam about old players. Which is a shame. All you see infront of your eyes is MONEY. And you know it's the truth. I dont understand what you're playing at, are you trying to attract more players or removing more players? Help me out.

 

 

YOU CANT HAVE A COMPANY WITH NO PLAYERS.

 

WITHOUT US YOU'RE NOTHING! 

[Skills.n.Girls 767]

Overdrive + Previous supply system + druggers = ~

Overdrive + New supply system + druggers = -

 

 

Idk, playing with colors :ph34r:

Yeah, we all know this is a bad update and everyone is going upset.

Let's just wait a bit and see whether they decide to improve it as it is not the first time they 'buffed' something too much.

 

Like Freeze - once they made it too OP and suddenly they nerfed it back and made some balance.

[Maf 32,300]

Except it didn't work. Peeps with Premium get twice the crystals and 1.5 the exp, making it a load faster. Also, they are bringing M2.10s to m1.5 and m2.1 battles, slapping on the drugs, and stealing flags, massacring, etc etc. They will make their missions in a fraction of the time normal players will.

They paid for it and they deserve it. Premium is something that's there to give players ability to save time in exchange for money. They buy premium and spend less time "grinding". It doesn't affect you, so everything is fair.

Nope, i do have many alts, but that is not one of them. As for aspriring to become a mod? That is not my plan, I simply am trying to get people to see that it's only slightly harder to play. I'm just one of the many tankers that would happily give some advice to tankers based on experience. This update ofc has positives and negatives, but end result, it's still a drug-2-win (pay-2-win) situation as overdrives charge with getting kills etc, non-druggers will hardly fill their overdrive bars up while druggers can get it done much quicker. See why I find it annoying that many arrogant buyers think this update helps many free to play players only! Yes maybe it's not possible for that one lone drugger to make a difference, but in TEAM games, it is meant to be TEAMWORK that prevails, not lone wolves, those lone wolves should stick to DM battles if they arent willing to play as a team. Finding a good team isnt that easy, but if u want to act as a lone wolf in a team battle, TDM would be the better mode since u can control your deaths and gain kills for your team, althought there may be those few annoying weak tanks in your teams giving the enemy free easy kills.

 

As for the numbers online? There seems to be not much of a deviation, a few more days should show how much of an impact this udpate has had.

 

One revised thought I agree with may people is that the instant heal should maybe be buffed while the overtime heal nerfed, along with a repricing of the repair supply. I.e, 2K Hp instant heal, 2K over the 2 second overtime. And maybe a reduced cost of 100 crystals per repair? Not the best idea, but people are always reccomending items.

 

Either way, i'll be able to adapt to any update, but the fact still lies that many are unwillling or just heavilly inept to change and drug wisely with this new repair mechanics.

I have the same opinion on "power-leveling".

And yet some people (players? really?) complained about that.

 

Now we can't do missions in Pro-Battles.

Go figure...

[Hatty1994 819]

The numbers of online players will decrease once the matchmaking system will come to the game because there will be no more Wasp/Fire battles & it will be extremely hard to complete super missions in this drug world. The numbers will fall, many like me are waiting & watching what's coming ...

wasp fire battles? use pro battles to create a private battle for those, as for super missions, many still slowly complete them. The matchmaking system is still yet to come, but this thread is to talk about this update mainly.
