Is Tanki more fun now than it was a year or two ago?

[falcosenna1 8,320]

counter drugs with team coordination. it really works, trust me  :)

It really doesn't.

[GuidoFawkes 2,361]

you havent tried team cordination, like every single team mate is your friend, team cordination. 

[falcosenna1 8,320]

You haven't tried Legend-only battles, like every single opponent is overusing supplies. :lol:

Team coordination is useless when your team either gets impaled by double power Railgun M4s from all directions, or gets plowed under by a fully drugged Titan-Twins M4 supported by two Isida-Viking M4s.

Oh you poor poor thing.. In esports isidas can only be on light hulls.

Oh you poor, poor thing, we're talking about non-pro battles you dimwit! Stop changing the subject to fit your argument. I don't give a hoot about esports, because that kind of logic is useless when I'm actually trying to earn crystals in normal battles.

You get more crystals from esports. Your problem is that you play normal battles thatcome with problems and arent good for earning crystals.. because you dont give a hoot about esports, thats excatly the problem

[Amagi 1,728]

Are the majority of battles Esports? 

Do the majority of players play Esports?

Do balance changes have to be made based on format battles in Esports?

Let him live in his dreamland, where Russians are the best, teamwork exists, and drugs aren't used, 'cuz that's the only thing he cares about. Any more debate about it would be unproductive and off-topic.

 

Back on topic:

Was browsing 2012-2013 topics a while ago, and seems like the players from that era also think that Tanki was better 1-2 years ago..

 

It's a vicious cycle isn't it?

Best years, really.

[Auhsoj1 68]

Best years, really.

I agree. The battle button really spoiled all the fun (madness CTF, woot, woot). Since the battle button, the only ones I really like are overdrive, and the damage counters. As for the contests, I hardly ever participate, so I can't say.

[meir1 55]

What's wrong in updates? I like changes in game. For now, I am waiting for new overdrives...

health box, the whole thing with needing a pro pass to make a battle, easier to drug. . . and more

When shaft m0 could one shot hornet m3 <3

in your dreams. 

 

I could see a m3 hornet pushing dictator M2 when gold falls.

Now It's Pay To Win , few years ago I was enjoying tanki much more.

[matan12344321 1]

A few years ago it was much more fun

When the boxes crystals(1,2,5,10,50,200 and more) is dropped and when the models  that destroyed the colors and the Kits did not exist

It was also more fun because the Isida raised to herself Health

And every update gets a lot less fun

Each update only destroys the game

Because of the full updates players have retired

Please :(  :(  :(  return the game as it used to be

[GorgoBlesk 831]

Magnum is the thing, what made the game less fun because it kills my Titan Shaft when hiding and reloading. And the funniest thing-nobody uses Striker, which was designed to be an anti-Shaft gun. Exactly the same time (3 seconds) is needed to do full damage with Shaft and to lock the Striker. It is theoretically a Shaft killer but in reality, something got wrong... Maybe if devs removed the Magnum, more people will play Striker.

Heck 2016-early 2017 was more fun than now. Back then, we didn't need to waste 20+ supplies in one measly battle. Also we had old Madness... which I used to hate because there were no spawn points on the bottom floor.

Tanki is more fun now because the in-game clans update. I always have lots of fun playing with my clan.

Less fun, but still addictive. I always tell myself that I will take a break after mondays (when I open the mission containers) but somehow I keep playing.

[GorgoBlesk 831]

When shaft m0 could one shot hornet m3 <3

It still can... It needs only few MU. M1 Shaft with few MU can 1-shot M4 Wasp or Hornet! I so much like my M1 Shaft. Just wait for some time and BANG! 2000 damage!

Tanki is more fun to play now than in 2017, but it was much better in 2015 and earlier, so my vote is still a resounding NO.  The Paint Separation marks the beginning of the downfall for me even thought that particular update was fairly benign...it was the start of a long string of ill conceived updates.

 

The containers and recent ASL and RGB have made a big improvement.  With the containers everyone has choke drugs so, even though drug use is greater and absolutely necessary in non-pro daily mission battles, they are only a distraction from game play as you decide which drug to use next.  At least you don't have to worry much about your supply cache.  The only real drug now is the repair kit...it still gives one pause as to whether it is time to use one or not...conservation is still present...DD is automatic either before clicking a S or just after, DA if there is time before you die, and then the actual contemplation...should I pull the pin on a repair kit?

 

RGB is a great format although a real drug fest.  ASL is interesting and fun as long as you can choose attack or defend based on the battle list.  When MM enters the picture ASL will go to hell quickly since luck will be the controlling factor of  team choice.  At this point, both formats have freshened the game overall.

 

Something I am starting to see recently is that all the crystals people are getting from the containers and high weekly rewards means there are more and more fully MUed turrets and hulls at all ranks.  So again Tanki has found a way to homogenize the game.  If everyone can quickly acquire  a fully MUed tank, no one has an advantage...just like if everyone has tons of drugs, no one has an advantage.  

 

The gold box update was a shame.  It's still nice to catch a gold box, but it is just luck now and being in the right place at the right time.  The real fun of trying for golds has been gutted...just like all of Neo-Tanki...still fun, but not as much fun as it used to be.

 

Oh well, I intend to enjoy what has been left to us while I still can.  MatchMaking is looming on the horizon and that will remove the last vestiges of what made Tanki fun.  With no choice or control in almost anything, Tanki will become just a casual diversion, a time waster type of game instead of a game where players are devoted to the game.
