Drones, Batteries and Modules Update

[Darklimit 0]

I am hoping it will compensate that unfair match making update.but its like adding one more drug for druger.

The module update is quite cool compared to other update recently came

2. We should have been able to switch modules out from the beginning, it's pretty damn late now because I'm sure everyone already faced this problem and had to pay more just to switch out one protection type.

Tanki taking our $$  :rolleyes:

Can drones be used in Parkour Battles? Just out of curiosity? If yes, I would've bought 100,000 batteries if I was playing  :lol:

game will be over 95% pay to win after tommorow. 

The addition of drones can't up the P2W by several thousand percent.

The addition of drones can't up the P2W by several thousand percent.

even only supplies do it, adding more supplies--->more pay2win

becouse 1 supply +100% dmg for example, if other don`t use, how percent is chance to other player to survive? Do you need hint?

Battery is expensive and what will happen with modules which we currently have?

Can I kill enemy drones with my railgun or other weapon? No? Than it is just MORE fun for drugger noobs, further ruining the game. Thank you.

[amsterdamn 242]

Other question: what will tanki do with old modules adding up in the following case:

 

(1) prodigi  50% against railgun

(2) picasso 27% against railgun

(3) clay up  47% against railgun

total: 124% against railgun? LOL

Players have invested in these modules....

 

(1) Africa   24% against hammer

The new minimum is 35% against hammer

Will I loose that after your re-balance?

Players have invested in these modules...

 

Thank you for your kind answer.

Hope we get battery in missions

PRO battles only for me after the sales and I complete week 10 of the chain. This update will drive a wedge further between buyers and the rest of the players. I don't have enough crystals to pay for these batteries which charge per minute and I have no idea what is going to happen with my protection modules in particular emerald. I hope it is automatically changed into a new module.

Will the prices of the modules remain the same?

When you see Viking4s complaining, you know it's pretty bad.

 

But you aren't forced to play. You aren't forced to agree. You aren't forced to read. You aren't forced to reply. You aren't forced to buy. You aren't forced to upgrade. You aren't forced to even try. You aren't force to win. You aren't forced to lose. You aren't forced to say thank you. You aren't forced to say good bye. You aren't forced to worry. You aren't forced to think. You aren't forced to say that you aren't forced...

And as we see from this posting, one is not forced to have a point in order to write something.

 

MY poitn was this: TO is giving players some return on their redundant protection investments instead of nothing.  You either think this is true or you do not. Now ... do you have anything real to contribute?

 

There is no reason to claim supplies will be zero sum.  I fully expect all weekly supply payouts to be the same as now with just batteries added. I fully DO NOT expect to see the other supplies reduced in the same number / value as batteries added.

 

If battery supply levels are proportional to the other supplies daily mission players will have no problem competing with buyers from a resources standpoint.

 

I see what you mean.  Well the alternative is TO could give players nothing at all for the redundant protection investments. So I do not see reason for complaints. But as you say you are in the middle of a thread I have not read in full.  So ... ciao.

I agree Willie. I refer to mission bonuses when I say that you will be getting fewer supplies. But I suppose it is the weekly bonus that is most relevant to us here.

I went to the test server to try out the drone but every account I make is a recruit so I cant try it. Does anybody know how to increase your rank on the test server and have more crystals to try out the drones?

Next time you go, don't select remember me. Open a new account, try several times until you get a high account. High account get 10 millions crystals.

 

Will I get crystals refund for my current modules and their upgrades?

V-logs said that batteries will be given in exchanges.

 

I only got two questions, what will be the price of buying one protection module and the cost of upgrading a module?

We do not know yet. In the test server there is 20 micro-upgrades. No cost is given.

 

Will we able to use/equip all drones in the battle?

You would be able to equip your tank with drone via the garage like turret and hulls. You will need to have batteries too, they are in the garage besides the GB. see here some pic from the test servers: Testing of Drones, separation of modules 

 

Battery is expensive and what will happen with modules which we currently have?

Some will be kept and redundancy  modules and upgrades will be transformed into batteries.

See here how the modules looked like in the test server: Testing of Drones, separation of modules

You aren't forced to think. You aren't forced to say that you aren't forced...

Complaining, what a big word. I stated an opinion and then I formulated a wish.

A lot of "aren't", just do what you want, within the limit of the game  and the rules ofc.

If they are the same as the test server showed they don't bring much. But it is better if you try yourself and make your own judgement. It was good to have access to the test server.

Really bad update! Please do NOT do this!!! All buyers will be overpowered!!! :o

[spra100 7]

lol nice

[BAMBIBX 178]

So in other words, to use drones costs 300 crystals per minute and for that you get different stuff... Like overdrive when you spend 150 crystals on health?  Or for the assault drone - 150 worth of drugs when you spawn?  In other words, you lose 150 crystals unless you die within 1 minute, but if you do, then you break even - assuming you wanted all those drugs immediately upon spawning.

 

I don't see these drones being all that useful.  They're too expensive for what they do.  Mostly, they just complicate and clutter the game.

 

I give them a big "meh"!

 

If you want to improve the game - get rid of MatchMaker.

 

MatchMaker SUCKS!

[DieselPlatinum 5,121]

I wonder if we can get them through mission chains.

[RIDDLER_8 5,552]

I will never ever waste crystals on batteries. I hope that players will be able to earn free batteries for drones in daily missions and mission chains. For me, 300 crystals for 1 battery is a huge waste in crystals. I will not buy them, but instead use the overdrive which is 100% free.

[Bydo 20,120]

out comes poor mom's credit cards .

 

we dislike MM and now drones . over cost .. now you guys understand why you need to up grade your modules today before they change over tonight.. less cost now then later..

[RIDDLER_8 5,552]

The matchmaking system is good but players do not need drones. I will never spend crystals on a drone that activates my supplies, because I use the overdrive instead which does exactly the same thing. The overdrive is free.

[rishabhhaunt 1,629]

Ummm...can't really understand how this will affect the game. Lets wait till release..

[thunderevenge 39]

I was one of the only tankers (apparently) to support Tanki for adding Matchmaking system... Now for drones... I'm not sure if this is a good idea, the gap between buyers and non-buyers will probably increase more. If an average tanker gets around 400 crystals every finished battle thanks to the new battlefund calculation, that means less than 2 batteries worth!  How are non- buyers gonna survive against buyers, who will probably be able to afford spending, lets say 5 or more batteries per battle?

[r_Issimo2 1,495]

You aren't forced to like the update.

They did say earlier that there will be ways to get batteries for free.

oh look another tanki announcement, Cue MAF brown nosing again  :rolleyes:

Hi

[Champion 60]

Lets see how much players are going to leave this time after this update.
