Ideas for Drones!

new drone idea: nagivator

 

its passive is something that im pretty sure no-one has suggested to go on a drone, you get a mini-map showing thing such as objectives and teamates. give is a battery and you essencaly get a wall hack for 5 sec. all enemy tanks glow with a red color and show up on the mini map. even enemys with the ghost drone equppied and active. 

 

that one was short heres another

 

dupe

 

give this drone a battery and it flys forward projecting a holgram of your tank untill it hits a wall or drives of something. this is a fun tool for combat and trolling alike. in combat a tank charging toward the enemy team is quite distracting. enpeicaly if you have a close range turrent such as hammer, or freeze. if the holo-tank is shot it is not destroied but rather it berifly flickers. for trolling i could be used to make it look like tbere are two tanks.

In my opinion, this will have a negetive effect on use of drones,because players do not want their battries to run out in a short time and their desire to rebuy the battries will be reduced . I see few players in battles that use from drones and one of reasons is this problem.

I actually like the navigator, that's a neat idea, but I think hornet's planned overdrive is that exactly, but I still like that drone idea

this thing does ONE POINT OF DAMAGE and if that is still too op give it 20 shots then you have to give it a battery to give it more shots. 

and the obrital strike is stupid expensive, as it costs 10 batteries to use it ONCE. but if it needs a nerf incease the cost not the damage but keep it in the double digits. 

 

p.s battries are the most expensive supply. and to mess up all the pay-to-players it is only avaible through containers and cannot be purchased it the garrage. 

acually you could just remove the whole doing damage bit and make it accesable as a modifacticon. because the obrital strike is plenty cool enough...

i think drones are one of my favorite things to talk adout.

 

since the kind Aigaion said that the devs dont like drones that do damage i thought up a little something

 

its name is supporter

 

what it does is provide an AOE that does many things such as healing freinds to helpng them realod (50% increase realod speed while in area). for one battery you place down a small turrent that shoots bullet that do 100 DPS (damage per second) with any enemys in area of vision and it also has to have a clear shot (line of sight must meet tank). and before you ask, only one at a time. using a battery with a turrent down will destroy the old one and replace it with the new one. the turrent has 1500 health on M0 with no micro upgrades (but micro upgrades will increase dps and hp).

 

and an idea to make some of these items availabe in game a comunity container which holds communty diesinged stuff.

 

wait mabye this blelongs in a diffrent section of the tanki forum...

I don't really want to be nit-picky and criticy again, but the turret placer, I like, I do, but its one of those things where I like the idea but don't really want to see it in-game, (devs prob don't either) might be a bit to OP. But the community idea has potential, like a thingy that boosts XP earned or something, roughly

tanks for the feedback. what do you think about the AOE healing affect? would make this drone a lovely combo with the isalda turrent. if the healing sound a tad bit to OP then change it to a supply booster that increases the duration of supplies. or a thing that speeds up your realod. the whole concept of this drone to be a support item.

idea for drone: requester 

 

when you give this drone a battery it will give a random supply drop to your location.

25% double damage, double armor, speed boost

10% necular crate

10% repair crate

5% speical drop

 

these are the three diffrent kinds of speical drops

1/3 gold box

1/3 cotainer

1/3 troll metor

 

the troll metor is just like the gold box metor execpt there is no gold box inside.

ment to deter those who wish to spam this.

I like the idea but seems too weak compared to the more orthodox drones and drone ideas, for example, I made a short list of ideas for the 3rd generation of drones on page 2, those are more normal, but maybe with some tweaking your idea could be more feasible

thanks for the feed back. i though about removing the speical drops and replace them with a crate that gives you the jugger naut tank for 1 minuite.

two drone ideas Regulator and heatwave

 

Regualtor's passive ability is that it will give you a tempature scale on the side of your screen that will tell you if you tank is too hot or too cold. give it a battery and it sets resets your tempature of your tank to a safe area. useful to use right after a skirmish with a firebird of freeze. to get rid of the after effects with a repair crate to heal the damage.

 

heat wave is a offensive type drone that shoots a lazer that causes tanks to over heat. the beam its self does no damage but the heating it causes will. it will also target freindly tanks that are frozen and de-ice them. its range is 5 meters. not very effective due the popularity of the fire resistance module but it could get you if you are the kind of person that doesn't unrev their vulcan. you cant fire this lazer beam forever as a enegry bar apperes on the side of your screen this bar show how long this drone can shoot. after the drone has emptied this bar you must give it a battery to refil it.

this is an idea for an alteration for a drone i have all ready though up (the drone is A.C.E.S)

 

the modification is mortar barrage.

 

what this item does is it decrease the cost from 10 to 5. instead of firing a orbital strike you get to call a mortar strike 3 times. the mortar strikes do damage equal to an m3 mangum at maxium damage and the blast radius is the same too. there is also no warning if your are in the blast radius.

new drone idea: randomizer (or a differnent name)

 

you know how the smoky has a random chance to fire H.E.A.T round. well this drone give EVERY turrent that capabilty (sort of) as you have a 25% that the next shot you shoot will deal 2x the damage. these "crits" are quite effective for taking the enemy off gaurd. but if you give the drone the battery you get a 100% chance to get critical shots for the next minute. 

 

(p.s. when are the speical overdrives coming out? and are they for all modifications)

1: Shield Drone (drone favourite mode any) (best strategy Defence )

(when activated shield drone there will be a 180 degree force shield in front of our turret which will rotate with the turret and will be activated for few seconds)

* EFFECTS the shield will ignore when shooting at it except from ricochet (it will reflect when hit the shield

as well as magnum if it would be able to shoot above the shield (that means behind the shield) it will cause damage to the tank.

Reloading time : 3mins Duration: 10 sec (while upgrading the reloading time reduces and and active duration increases

 

2:EMP (electromagnetic pulse) drone (Drone favourite mode Deathmatch) (best strategy attack)

when the EMP is activated , for a few range , all tankers within the range will deactivate there supplies

except for teammates

*EFFECTS (not only tanks around you who are activated supplies at the moment will only deactivate, the tankers who doesnt use supplies will all reduce -5 sec for recharge time (doesnt change while upgrading)

Reloading time: 2mins Duration: none

 

3: Suicide drone ( Drone favourite mode Deathmatch , team deathmatch , assault ) (Best stratergy none)

the only thing the drone does is when u get destroyed the tanks around you will get a a small splash damage tank

might have a chance of getting an extra kill

 

Completed

1 - Defender drone. Also Titan's overdrive.

2 - Blaster drone.

 

EMP will be Hunter's Overdrive

 

 

 

 

1. Mines drones - Mines will not disappear and deal 4000 HP of damage for 1 minute. 4000 HP damage is enough to destroy an M4 Mammoth. This drone will also make mines invisible for 1 minute.

 

 

3. Invincibility drone - This drone will make your tank indestructible for 1 minute (similar to God Mode).

Completed - Miner drone

 

Invincibility will be possible with Mammoth's Overdrive

 

Idea for new drone. Name: Camper.

 

After getting _ amount of kills without dying gain infinite double armor, double damage and speed boost until dying.

Completed - Camper drone

 

Bruiser Drone

 

When activated, this drone will damage any enemy your tank touches. It will deal 1000 (0 MU) - 2000 (20 MU) damage in a 20 second period before wearing out and becoming useless. It can damage more than one tank at once as long as you're still touching the enemy tanks.

 

Healer Drone

 

When activated, this drone will heal any ally your tank touches. It will heal 400 (0 MU) - 800 (20 MU) health points in a 20 second period before wearing out and becoming useless It can heal more than one tank at once as long as you're still touching your allies. Won't heal any ally with a full health bar.

Mechanic already has a very similar effect

 

 

 

-----------------------------------------------

Active

Vision tanks -(see tanks through walls)

-OR "radar" allowing to see enemies and allied tanks

-Only for close enemies, so you can only see tanks through close walls

 

 

Show reload bars for some seconds (show enemies or/and  allies reloading bars) 

 

See enemies life percent or another way to calculate its health

 

 

 

Passive

 

Pickup time increaser (increase time of pickups)

 

Free double-armour OR mines supplies when your are near your team flag or cp

 

Free double-damage OR nitros supplies when your are near the enemy flag or cp

Completed

 

See though walls, radar and visible enemy health - Hornet's Overdrive

 

Pickup time increaser - implemented as Engineer drone

 

Free supplies when near enemy base - implemented as Sprinter drone.

 

NEW IDEA!

 

Name : Overdrive Drone

Function : Charge the overdrive 20% faster than before.

Activate Limit : Until the battle finished

Cost : 7500 crystals

Completed - Driver drone.

 

Spike Drone- when enemy tank lands on you, it gets killed instantly

 

Spike drone's ability will be implemented as Mammoth's Overdrive

 

 

 

---

A s s a u l t

 

Spy (active drone)

Shows enemies health bars for 5 seconds.

Breaker (passive drone)

Ignores 10% turret protection modules.

Will be implemented as Hornet's Overdrive

 

What about a drone which makes you IMMUNE to mines? Mines are annoying as crap and if there was such a drone, I would buy it for sure.

Will be implemented as Mammoth's Overdrive

 


 

Will archive this topic soon, since it's unlikely that devs will be adding any more drones.

Lifeguard drone

 

So we all know what does that drone do and how are players using to take golds which is wrong.Tanki shouldn't force players to buy a specific drone to get meteorite golds.For like 2-3 weeks only players with lifeguard drone can get the gold in MM battles which is unfair.

My Suggestion is tanki should remove it ability to save a tank from mass damage and instead of that Lifeguard drone can increase the recharge time of Repair kit.

OR

Simply , Tanki can change it's name to " For Golds " instead of Lifeguard.Really not fair.
