mmmm yes i can

I understand your frustration, but I highly doubt that would be a fair and effective use of your anger. If someone is using something they want to use, be it in Tanki or elsewhere, then it's their choice, not yours. It's best to worry about what is in your control than fret about the things that you cannot change.

The fact you used it at all means you are endorsing imo a LEGAL HACK, which was made that way by the DEVS on purpose to get players to use cash to acquire it.

Furthermore not using your overdrive doesn't negate the fact that the FLYING CHEAT is OP, and should not be in the game.

I will never stop with the negative criticism, not until the devs start treating the players with respect, instead of the disgraceful way they act with their underhanded strategy when bringing in any update that usually requires cash to obtain.

These are the facts, not calling you persey, but using a hull like that will always get you a negative response. They are OP and should never have been brought into the game.

Just the devs being the devs, cash driven to the extreme. 

If I'm a buyer, I will buy everything and will get 9999GS. What's the problem with the buyers, it's just the game (disgustingly) allowed them to have such a power. The blames must all be to the game developers, not the player. How the players get this tank? from no existent? a magic? Nope, it's the developers implemented this tank in the game. We usually criticize the current state of the game, we criticize Hopper, but have you seen us any day criticize Hopper players instead of criticizing the hull itself?

Players actions aren't a predictable. Saw a Viking with 100% OD in Juggernaut, I safely went to fight him as I know he wont use the OD on me but against our Juggernaut. Strangely after I jumped to fight him, he wasted the OD just against me, though our Juggernaut was something near him. happens a lot

I wonder how some players think and play!! 

Sometimes that happens to me, where a teammate approaches me so I use my Overdrive (It usually happens with Hunter). For me it's just a knee-jerk reaction because I assume that person would start shooting me, and I didn't realize that they were a teammate. It makes me facepalm as soon as I realize that that was a teammate (almost immediately).

Strange that he kept shooting you though.

Been placed on a lot of garbage teams in Siege tonight.  Many players refusing to go near cap-point.

Player on my team in viking gauss was 20m from cap-point, but instead of trying grab the spot from a couple reds, sat back and camped.  Of course the reds capped the point while I died.  Quickly left that battle.

I came to this conclusion about 6 months ago. Winning and losing in MM is not that important given the current battle parameters. As you said in a previous post, you can finish on the losing side and still chalk up a huge score by playing for you guessed it, K/D ratio. Now, I have to condition my pride to not test my skills against those with the defender drone. Right now, that is the biggest time/effort waster for me.

So I can convert now into a mult without remorse

The Twins in your team who continuously shooting you without stopping, ruining your aim or make you crushing the wall. Or a squint Thunder who many times shoots you instead of the opponent infront of you. Or the killer one, Viking OD that wont stop shooting you even if there is no enemy. Especially if it were with Magnum, terminated me literally with Viking OD. Before a minutes, I was in a battle and there was a Magnum teammate who spend its Viking OD in just one Wasp, there wasn't any near enemy, and after that terminated me with a huge punch of shoots with the remaining time of her OD. I was going away, and she shooting me, after that I returned and backed to let her a lesson.

Or before that a Twins, who is every time surprising me with new shoots, many times I asked him to stop shooting teammates, but he couldn't stop, I took Juggernaut, and he frightened me with his shoots I thought he's an enemy.. btw after that I alerted him, then I took a revenge as I control the Jugger.

Noobs are a different type of Mults

More cowards in battles everyday.  A smoky-viking trying to camp on sandbox-CP.  We lost 30-8 because when you only have 3 or 4 players on your team trying to cap multiple points on a small map you are sure to lose.

[thunderhunter123 741]

Everyone, it's okay to get angry and/or upset on things that are annoying. However, we should stay positive with each other no matter the situation.

We are all different, with different combinations in the game, different strategies, different interests, etc.

We should always be nice to one another and not feel negative to anyone. We are all here to play and have fun.

That Smoky/Viking might have had internet connection issues and could only move little by little in the camping area. He/she could have been doing a Daily Mission where he had to collect supply boxes. It could have been that he just wanted to camp in his area to try out his Smoky/Viking combination. He/she just wanted to do what they felt like during your 30-8 CP battle.

You shouldn't say those negative words to any tanker. They are all different people, with different goals during their play-time.

 

I know that this entire Forum Topic has negative things about tankers and about the game.

Always remember to think positively, and in other peoples' point of view.

We talk in general about certain players actions, and most of them didn't have any internet or PC issues, just a pure mindless playing from them.

Btw, you're right if we determined someone with Nickname and real picture, in this we're completely wrong and need to give him excuses. But we just talk in general about certain acts, no one is identified.

Btw, we play in the game and see some actions that we disgust by them. We didn't criticize or insult them in Chat, just talking here in general.

When someone have some missions about killing a certain number of enemies, or collecting Sky Boxes, he should play in TDM, not in CTF in example. And even if he had 70K damage mission in CTF, I usually when I have these mission, my cares in flags is way more than in doing meaningless damage. Ok what happened to Wolverine? just lose that game because the meaningless playing by their teammates.   Btw, in general if someone have an internet issue that restrict him from playing, the blame goes to him not anyone other. But in general when I have internet lag, I couldn't take the flags in CTF because it will be dropped after certain time, but in CP your internet wont restrict you from staying in the point for some seconds, except if your PING was higher than 999+, so you don't have to play ever with this ping.

Btw. Again, it's just a criticize about how someone plays, with no a personal or even identify the Nickname (even game Nickname).

"just wanted to do what they felt like"

Are you for real?

Their actions affect ALL team member in a TEAM BATTLE.  This player was most likely protecting their KD at the expense of their team-mates.  They are just as bad as the vikings that grab supply drops away from dictators on their own team.

In other words - they are horrible team players.

Then again, they were killing the opponent tanks, right? Or, were they simply multing?  In case of the former, they were helping out your team by reducing the number of enemy tanks on the map, even if they were benefiting from it more than their team. 
If you really want to play MM battles in which you get to see satisfying teamwork then grouping up with your friends is a good option.  

When i do not group with friends i do not expect much teamwork in MM - this alone makes it a lot less frustrating when i play in similar battles to your 30-8 CP battle.

You read the post 38-8 - because players on our team ignored the mode and selfishly "did their own thing".  Unless you are killing players that are trying to cap, you are not helping.

You don't need a lot of co-operation to be successful.  Sure it's much better if the team co-operates.  But if players selfishly ignore the battle-mode they are a handi-cap to the team.  They should stick to DM and TDM.

Look - we are not talking about new players learning the game.  This is upper ranks where everyone knows how things work.  There is no excuse to be collecting supplies or "trying out a new combo" in a Team-based battle mode.

I had a mission to win in Top-3, and there is one left to finish it. I tried hardly to complete this mission, first battle I was in CTF mode. I captured one flag, Trying hardly to defend, less-cares about K/D, most of my cares was just about capturing-defending. My team was a weak in defense, in the last 2 minutes, I noticed that I'm in 4th place, I tried hardly to kill opponents, but I found my team is again weak in defense. I return to defend the flag with less kills, so the game finished 1-0 or 1-1 but I'm in 4th place, and haven't get the reward I want. My team was just a selfish and caring about kills, ok what I benefited here by their kills? First obviously no one captured a flag, and their kills weren't in a defense. So even in their kills it's just a mindless kills, a pure evidence that it's not a team-based kills, just searching for the highest kills they want.

Btw, tried many battles after that, one of them was in Siege. I tried hardly to kill the opponent in the point, and tried hardly with one Isida that helped me and we captured one point, then suddenly I see the red team take a hard progress, and I couldn't capture any other point, every time I go to the point I zapped by many players killing me. Then after that I realized, wait a second (talking with my mind) where are my team? I realized that just I'm and that Isida the ones who caring about the point, literally every other one in my team were playing with their sake. And the other team maybe have 5 players who are all going to the point, and for your information, my fake team wasn't kill the ones in the point, just a mindless kills with anyone they want to kill. So for sure I noticed the result reached to 3-1 points for them, and I realized no chance for me to win, I left after that. As I don't want to waste the 3 remaining minutes, while I know purely I will lose without any chance to change this fact. And for sure the red team deserve this win, as they played with truly team-play.

One or two or three defenders in CTF is a good thing, but what if all the team were defenders? and for sure many of them not a real defenders, just grinding on the kills even fighting a flipped one ignoring the one who stole their flag!!!

Oh wait, many times you send to me invite in a group but I mostly on another webpage and not realizing that I have invites from you, or sometimes when I'm about to click "Join the group" the time for the invitation vanish,

This is hardly an excuse. I always try my best to work towards the objective, even if I have bad fps/ping or I have a mission to use supplies or to destroy enemies.

Hiding in a corner is a bad way to test out a combination, unless the combination like Shaft/Mammoth or something. Ideally, new combinations should be tested in the Test Server or in the fray of battles where situations are a lot more dynamic.

This is true. Sometimes I get put in battles with crappy teammates who do stupid stuff like drive into me without even turning or shoot at me and it's frustrating. I say stuff in the chat, but *most* of the time it's really simple stuff (for example, "Really??" or "Dude, stop.".

But I don't take it personally, I just vent frustration and let it go. Off the top of my head, I couldn't tell you the username of a single person that I've said stuff like that to.

"This player was most likely protecting their KD..."

You could be correct.

He/she may not have realized, and will come to realize later on, that no one is able to hold onto their K/D rate.

 

But they are not horrible players. They just have a little less skill than others, in the current time. They are just choosing to get away from the battle field, in some battles where tanks on the opposing side are much stronger than them. They just want to maybe watch other players, and get experience while on the sidelines.

 

In other words, every tanker is different, and should be respected no matter what they do. Our main purpose and goal is to play well ourselves. We should help others, if we can, in battle. It's okay if they cannot do that much in return, then and there. They will try to help later on, if they choose to, and are able to.

 

@wolverine848 I see that you are a Legend 10 rank. The tankers you think are bad, might have been Legend 1. They just ranked to Legend and were still getting used to battling with the other high Legend ranks.

Not every computer/laptop is able to handle lo FPS/Ping like your computer. Some tankers can choose to go slower with themselves because of slowness.

Not everyone likes or know about Test Servers. They might not be able to do it, or just choose to test their combinations in battle.

Basically, everyone chooses to do everything, and whenever they want to. We should not get upset if it affects us because everyone will progress eventually. We all have different speeds of progression.

1) At the ranks I'm seeing players like this in it is unacceptable behavior.  You don't get to watch other players and get experience on the sidelines in Team battles.  These players should be doing DM to "get more experience".

2) They should not be respected "no matter what they do"? That's outright ridiculous.  Are you saying it's ok if they just park their tank and observe the battle?  Taking up a slot that an active tank might fill?

With your perspective why even keep score?

Yeah, it's okay.

If they want, they can. We should ignore, and play our part.

In the next battle, we'll have other players with different actions.

It's not nice to have these thoughts about players.

You should always think positive about everyone, not get upset about their performances, and ignore them.

It's the best way for us all to improve. We all only get better with experience.

 

When I first played Tanki Online, I only wanted to battle and shoot with my turret. Later, I found out that I had a thing called a "Garage" that I could use to look at what was mine, and I could change into different combinations. After many years, I now can use my knowledge to get myself a Perfect Tank, perfect combination for myself, information I can use in battles and for enemies/allies, etc.

Everyone has different knowledge, and things that they like doing or are doing in their current time. We should let them do it because later, they could be doing the important things like Missions, and playing the game.

1) we are not talking about new players.  This is upper ranks.  Players have 20+ ranks to learn and experience to get to the level I'm playing in

2) You advocating players should be able to "do anything they want" is saying multing is ok.  That's wrong and against the rules.  How many players on a team is it ok for them to do this?  2? 3?  How you think that team is going to do in that battle if they have 1-3 players just "observing" or just "experiencing"?  Those players are affecting my ability to complete my missions.

The "later" is now.

If someone collides with my car, will I give him excuses like he was a sleepy or his car is an old car so it stopped them in the middle of the road?? or I just will call police to see who is wrong and make him to repair my car? Maybe I will forgive him (and mostly) but it's my full right to not forgive him and make him to bear the cost of repair.

You hardly give them an excuses, and most most of them didn't have neither internet or PC lags. Maybe their PCs is better than your and my PC and everyone in this discussion and you just give them an unreasonable excuses. I'm the one who have a hard ping lags and hard fps lags from my beginnings to a near future but that haven't restrict me from capturing flags or at least be a good teammate.

Testing Smoky in Legend?? you kidding me? FYI, true I have test some turrets before, like I have test Gauss to understand its mechanics, but I have test it in Parkour mode. But even if we gave that player excuses, Smoky is the most popular turret, no need of test. And I'm a pretty sure if we entered that player profile, we will see a high amount of hours in Smoky that directly means he wasn't test it.

Some times I see players take Repair Kits while they're in Full Health, or a Wasp who just put the bomb in the ground while there is no enemy and catch the new OD box!!! at least he should leave it for me I'm a teammate.

Those actions all deserve a criticize, you know what's the criticize? it's a normal thing to criticize something you don't like, in a limits of respecting and not to go personal.

We haven't went further and insulted him personally and intervene in his personal live!

That's all really different. Tanki is a fun game, where it's okay if you get bumped. You won't take damage, but just get pushed a little.

In today's battles, and I was getting shot at so many times, and was not able to steady myself. Common annoying things like this happens to everyone, but we shouldn't get angry for too long.

This compares better to how children are playing with toy cars, and one child accidentally breaks

They could have gotten Mk7 Smoky to finally test out for a couple battles, while they were using another combination before. Or they could have gotten an Augment for Smoky to test.

Even so, it's alright if they were not active that much. They just wanted to do something else for a battle or two.

They have collecting supplies mission, or use overdrive mission. Or they were just wanted to play around the team mates. We should learn to let go of small things making us mad.
