Hello,

After being offline for several months i've decided to log into the server and i found out that most of my things were gone, for example crysis or striker was reset to level 1 when it was at level 7. I've also noticed, augments for hammer was missing basically all the good stuff was removed but how is that possible? Am i the only one?

Are you talking about regular game or Test Server?

If things are missing on your regular Tanki Account you can contact tech support via Application for return of lost things

i'm talking about my regular account, seems weird what could have caused this?

[krokorok 836]

No clue what is the cause, but you better contact tech support about it.

If you received the welcome back gift (judging by the premium on your ratings page), you were away for at least 10 months. Do you remember an approximate date of the last time you logged into the account before today?

My last purchase was in 2021 April and i believe that was the time when i played

Hello,

i have the Booster Drone at Lv. 5 and the Saboteur Drone at Lv.5 im unsure which is better at higher ranks. I play usually with heavy hulls and magnum. I would prefer Saboteur but im not sure if mines are effektive against high ranks.

Should i instead level up Booster? Double Damage is always good.

I know that Tanki is a cartoony game but the drones are a weird choice imo to show the boosted abilities. It looks kinda dumb how they float above the tanks. and they have carefully made designs but are too small for it to be noticed in the gameplay. They also give away your position when you take cover.

It would be much better if the drones' abilities were just called upgrades to the tanks, and if you make your tank faster its shown by it getting a bigger engine on the tank model, which makes a more fun change to the tank's appearance and is more easy to see in the gameplay. If you boost the armor it changes the tank's appearance in another way, and so on.

How can we play with Tanki now, using Crisis drone? It's impossible to play because we don't have enough drugs.

Even purchasing the battle pass and doing all the daily missions, the drugs are not enough, even playing as a camper, trieing to save drugs. Well now again, how to play? No repair kit, no armor, no damage and no crystals to buy more drugs.

Even paying daily tankoins, it wasn't enough. The game is not sustainable, are you harming the players who play the most? Anyone who enters for 15 minutes and leaves is fine, but for those who do all the daily missions and complete the pass a long time ago... What can we do, we no longer have the means to play... Just get int a battle, die, die, die? Boring.

And don't tell me that this drone is not supposed to be sustainable, in my case, I had a level 20 drone, you removed it and didn't pay me even half of what I spent on it, what was left was Crisis with some updates, if not... I would be forced to get a drone from level 0 again?...

Simply the way it is now, it is unsustainable. Even spending 5000 tankoins, I didn't get enought drugs all days.

For the love of god, if you are playing the objective and someone is healing you, USE YOUR DOUBLE ARMOR!

I have seen countless players with crisis refuse to activate armor even while getting frozen thinking their DD will help oneshot the enemy, but that won't work, at all!

Don't think that speed boost can save you either because it just takes a magnum to sneeze to instakill you, doesn't matter if you have protections, using mammoth or wasp, use your supplies with your brain!

@TheCongoSpider lol yeah, ignore my question buddy, you must be too embarrassed to answer it 

I was waiting until I updated the Crisis list and some of the current Booster list before I responded. I just happened to be busy at that same time and got around to doing it now. I just wanted to get out that unfinished Booster post out of the way at the start because over time this became inconvenient to do on a phone. 

 

It doesn't take long. It took quite longer back when Crisis was 60 but now that they're both 25 I can copy what I have for Booster for Crisis. Crisis may have additional stuff like RDS allowing for a surprise with an unboosted normal + boosted critical. Usually there won't be huge rebalances to multiple equipment so only few things change at a time.

Would this topic not be better suited in the 'let's discuss' (turrets and hulls )area of the forum?

Seems a little redundant.

Edited January 29 by Jeers4U

[Tekken 374]

as title says, this drone is one of the dumbest ideas that has been made in this game ever,  From perspective of new player this is absolutely no brainer, finally I have had opportunity to create new acc and play on it for refferals event and I have to say - its killing gameplay. 

First of all whole reason to put it in game is absolutely ridiculous... do they really think that players are SO DUMB that they cant grasp simple  3 supplies  at a time mechanics? This game has been here for almost two decades and this is first time they did such nonsense... if players in 2011 did not have problems to understand it I believe players do not have problem to understand it in 2025 too. 

 

 

Why is it killing game?  If design is not telling it alone  then let me explain it, 

 

This drone is only promoting camping,  why? Because most of the time as a camper you only need 1 supplie and thats double dmg, you dont really need to get close to the enemy (thus no need for speed boost) and if your enemy does not have range he cant kill you (thus no need for double armor) Everyone else? welcome in camping tanks online. If this drone mechanics is trailer how upcoming supplies change is going to be then I am afraid this is it for me... 

 

Every other combo is inferior because everyone can use only one type of supplie,  its sad to have XY turrets and XY hulls and yet cant use them because it will only end to be frustrating. As a agressive player you need at least damn speed boost to reach player that has long range turret, but if you use speed boost then you are about to get respawned by whoever shot you first. Without DA there is little chance to survive more than few seconds.  

Another extremely stupid thing about this drone, if you collect any supplie from ground - you have your 12s cooldown actiavted, you are welcome just press delete and try again, why would game discourage to collect them? If you collect them by accident you are screwed, if you want to use them for strategic purpose or for HP (engineer augment) you are also screwed because you will have 12s cooldown and end up dying,   if I have speed boost and I collect speed boost then  again, it reset my cooldown to 12s 

 In conclusion -  if you wanna have at least decent chance you will end up with long range weapons waiting for your opponent to make biggest mistake in TO - not camp and engage in battle  - sad truth about current gameplay. Maybe its devs way to prepare any new players who somehow endure this hard trial for higher ranks where you get punished by blasters and one shoting augments  that can kill you across whole map.  

If this is how this game is presented to new players then I already know why this game lack new players. There were ideas from many other players how to make early game for new players way better and comfortable, yet you TO devs decided to make it worst way possible. If your goal was to repel and discourage as many new players as possible (or old veterans that came back)   then you did great job.  

 

My advice is to delete this drone, if you wanna keep it, at least please REMOVE the damn cooldown after collecting supplies from ground. But I am afraid this is beyond help.  I am just waiting for new supplies change... to decide whether this TO journey has any meaning for me or not. Lastly I am just disapointed..  one small example - repair kit issue, its been half year since they introduced autosupplies and with them repair kit "bug"  have it been fixed? Of course not... simple and trivial issue with game ignored for months..

On the contrary, the current supplies mechanic itself is dumb. Everyone just spawns and does 2-3-4 in some order, every time. There's no strategy here, and one might think - what is even the point of having armour and damage boost if everyone uses both and they just cancel each other out.

I think the primary motivation for adding Oracle drone is to make the supplies mechanic more tactical, while simplifying the game for newbies is a nice side effect.

I think this might be a temporary thing that will change in the near future. This drone is supposed to encourage picking up supply boxes by making them more valuable, so it will probably be changed so that you get a second supply activated when you pick up a box. Not only that, but box supplies might even have increased power, similar to the current bonus from using drones.

To explode "newbie" brains just send them to the wiki to brush up on their knowledge of what does what in battle.

This game is not easy to grasp, yes at the fundamental level it is, but not when you delve into all the "NOT SO SIMPLE" mechanics of the game.

I could care less about the oracle drone, I used it a couple of times, found it tedious and never went back to that account. 

@Tekken8 is right about the cool down, It's mind numbingly boring. It's a paupers Crisis Drone and that's all it ever will be.

A maxed out Brutus will nearly always kill a oracle drone user first.

Idk man, I play quite a few different games and as far as mechanics go, Tanki is definitely on the simpler side. In terms of technical skill and tactics - sure, maybe there's quite a bit of depth there. But in terms of the game mechanics themselves it's pretty damn straightforward.

If you want an example of complex game mechanics, look at Minecraft. I'm serious.

I do agree with this, current mechanics is not much better, but if you restrict new players to use only 1 it will favour camping  because thats only combo which is suited for such game style. Other meele and short range combos are very uneffective with this design. You might perform decently with medium range turrets but again, if there are 2 players equally good, one with medium and other with long range turretthen all ods are against medium range user. 

I saw video from detective999 like year back where he suggested introduction to supplies mechanics for new players and imo it was way better and user friendly than this one. 

Imo this mechanics will only discourage players to play actively in battle. For some of them it might be deciding factor whether to stay in game or leave.  I am definitely not a fan of  long range  turrets and I think tey are boring, but I know that they are in fact best in game.  The more range you have the more options for most of the maps.  You can enter almost any map and find a way to perform well, if I get stadium with firebird I have two options either stay and be a  training target for whoever can shot me first or leave. 

This is disscusion for another topic but my honest opinion on long range turrets is that they should either have reduced dmg for short ranges (as a balance mechanism) or have new game mechanics introduced into them,  magnum for example have a good disadvantage for shor range - and thats prolonged reaload due to amplification time.  If its long range then it should have advantage only for that specific range not for all previous ones that tends to be at closer distance. Scorpion is most ridiculous one, it has 2 alternative modes that does not interfere with each other. You have arcade mode that work outside of Salvo mode.  Why does not it have same mechanics as gauss? It has two modes but they are interlocked by singular energy bar.

I hope so, but untill then, every potential new player will suffer under this unfinished piece  of work, I do agree it supposed to encourage picking supply boxes thats why I do find idea of 12s cooldown after collecting enything from ground as a complete crap...  not to mention old players still have option to use brutus at low ranks which is also not optimal.. should not all of them be treated equally? How about removing it from their garage with a some compensation for it.

Thats why I found a idea of "simplifying" supplies funny, its not rocket science, I play this game since 2011, back then I was teenager but I did not have any problem to understand mechanics of " drugs"  Thats the most basic thing in tanki, I think Tanki its well known for "drugs" design.

Technical skill and tactics yes.

As for the mechanics of the game, these have gotten way out of control and matter a great deal in battle. One horrible word-AUGMENTS. They have ruined the game, along with trashcans.

As  a big noob who too often goes speed, damage and then gets one shot because I chose not to do armor, I do think the supplies offer tactics. If I go armor early, I won't die right away, but I will be without it if I survive my first engagement when it runs out. Go damage and armor first, often I spend too long just driving to the fight  

[Tekken 374]

Casual battle at low ranks now

 

This is example how battles looks like at low ranks, only one guy from their team used firebird and thanks most likely because its somehow effective against bots, also my team was not doing good so he was not punished as much as I would with same combo.
