True, after all that was the whole intention behind this idea - to make High polygon,  HD skins for all hulls and turrets in the game.  I hope XT skins would get this face-lift too. I think new players would find the game interesting again.

I think it is safe to say that XT-skins will be affected by this update. I also expect them to slightly update the LC-series, because having a low-resolution skin among the others is odd and does not fit in the renewed game's graphics. 

I am curious what will happen with the Prime-skins, as they are basically a 2D-ish version of the Ultra-skins. Speculating, I think they will get removed and players with PR-skins will receive the corresponding UT-skin

I think that might happen too, but I'll be sad because I think some of the Prime skins are better than the Ultra skins, even though the Prime skins have lower resolution and were made for the lower polygon models

I'd rather have a higher res / poly Hunter Prime skin instead of Hunter Ultra

All of the XT skins and Legacy skins will have to be redone for the new / higher poly models too

Paint shrinking will become default too, urgh, but I hope they start making new paints if they are not going to remaster any of the old ones

In my opinion, Prime-skins serve an awkward spot in the game; they are not better than other skins, I do not find them appealing and UT-skins are a direct upgrade of them. I have no intention on getting a Prime skin, for me they are just... there... 

A higher res / poly Hunter Prime skin is basically an ultra skin, apart from differences in colour-contrasts and small details - so I do not get what you mean by that. 

A solution to the shrinking paints could be to make the paints themselves bigger, so that they appear bigger on polygons - I do not know if this would work and how, but honestly I am not too bothered by this issue

This new high-res Hornet skin is alright, but it looks like a second Ultra skin.

Looks like second Ultra skin?? I don't understand, what do you mean? hornet ultra looks completely different compared to the new default skin.

XT skins are standard skins with only some modifications, see XT hornet and hornet m3.

Remember when one day test server was a vibrant and very active. Playing in it just with a tank-hull-paint with MU's, without any complications. with many players.

Nowadays, test is such a mess of a random. In every couple of hours, a server opened and others closed, and you need to start from first over. With addition of taking a drone and a separate 3 protections module, and Augments. with a lack of players.

Missing the gold days with test server 2014-2017 and before. The server was most of the time closed, and when just a day it opened, punch of players join it with a hot happiness, I remember when I rushed telling my friends Ooh guys test server is opened wooh(now it's opened 24/7). And the battle list was vibrant with a maps maybe more than the maps in battle list nowadays in real server.

I don't criticize, I just want to tell test server is in a mess, don't know why it's opened, the only thing is to filling parkour maps with mines, with auto-clicker.

And even if I want to test a certain Augment, most times I didn't have tankoins in test server to buy. Though I know test server is for developers to test not me, but it's a valid point.

Tanki is everyday running away from the concept of a tanks game. I think the supplies is the only accepted addition on the tanks game.

That looks very cool!!

But honestly...

 

The old Isida shot effect kinda fits Tesla way better. Idk, its just my observation.

I'm biased cause I wanted an electric turret to be added since 5 years ago.....

So Tesla OP = Good


 

Spoiler

But it is nicer if it was balanced. I suggest instead of Mk8 doing 800 per shot it would do something more like between 200-400 per shot.

Tesla and Isida

 

 

Interestingly, 

In a 1v1 situation, Tesla wins (because it has superior damage and range. Oh, and infinite ammo too).
But in a close-ranged 8v8 situation of 8 Teslas vs 8 Isidas, Isida army wins. (because Tesla loses damage if it fires multiple enemies at once. Isida's damage stays the same. Oh, and the healing ability allows Isida army to heal each other).

I would love to see the old Isida effect to be used for soemthing again.

[B.A.B.I 643]

I tried Tesla out, and the design is the best thing about it. It looks so badass. Reminds me of a stag beetle.

New Railgun on Test Server!!

Test server is OPEN!

Item being tested - New Hull Paladin!

It possesses a support type Overdrive.

Noo... a floating hull...

@At_Shin could you describe the Overdrive? I'm curious

the overdrive continuously heals your tank and nearby ally tanks. Also, it applies a new status effect (name unknown) which removes some negative status effects such as Stun from your tank and nearby enemy tanks for a long duration of time. 

Also, the overdrive continuously applies jammer and AP status effects to nearby enemies.

Hmm... a stationary ares and hunter eh

[Incorp 2,084]

no, it is not stationary. It is mobile. The overdrive moves along with your tank. You can heal up while moving and remove negative status effects from your tank and your allied tanks while applying jammer and AP to nearby enemy tanks.

Waw ok I like, but the shape is like crusader a bit. 

[Incorp 2,084]

6 minutes ago, At_Shin said:

true. However, I think that it looks like a crusader from the front but looks like hopper from the back.

Also, it seems that the overdrive helps reduce incoming critical damage. My juggernaut did 138 critical damage to a Paladin with it's OD activated.

I wish I got a pcs to test it out...  make mobile test server for browser soon @Opex-Rah

I made a showcase video of the new hull!
