Your GS?

[ghost-guns 1,486]

GS is even worse than matchmaking.

My GS is in the upper 8000s and it took this thread to inform me why I can’t break 9000.

 

I hadn’t equipped a drone.

 

Suddenly GS makes a LOT of sense. Designers are exploiting basic human competitive nature (to want to get the highest game score) - in order to sell more drones. Making GS a visible indicator in battle underscores the psychological approach / manipulation at play here.

nowadays everytime after some guy becomes a mod he gets crystals to buy garage kits <_<  they must really have increased mod's salary from what it was a couple years ago

This kit was purchased just before I became one...;p

Full tank, full modules, full drone, and " PRO" paint. (Alligator, Phoenix, MoP17, Traceur, and an animated paint I own).

Paints in garage are ordered by the points, and sadly it puts paints like blaze or sky almsot at the end. Not like a care about those points, but it's damn annoying to scroll tens of paints to find it.

Have you seen a higher rating? Maybe paints like Champion/silver and bronze, same for spectrum modules have higher points. In my opinion it's useless, I don't really care about this, and now I'm unable to view enemie's MU level, which is IMO even more annoying. Now I'll be forced to deduce points for paint (I need to remember the paint point "tiers"), same for modules, drone (which you couldn't see if it's full or not before, but now it's important information to find out tank's MUs), and all this just to see if the guy has M4 (or MUed tank) or not.

Thank you, GS is completely useless and the only one who have extremely good ones are buyers, No lifers or helpers. The old system was much better being it actually game you information on enemies, while GS tells you nothing besides he's got a cool paint a barely worth it drone and maybe MUes

Modules, drugs and drones have too big effect on GS. I think it should be like this:

 

Turret- 4000

Hull- 4000

Modules- 1500

Drone- 200

Skins- 200

Paints- 99

 

Looks nice, right? xD

I miss MU system so much. I remember pressing V the whole time seeing everyone's MU.

GS is completely and utterly useless.  So many things need devs attention and they spend time on ridiculous stuff like this.

 

Quote from the V-log:

"What GS is and why is was needed:

 

The GS index is a total score of how many upgrades your currently used tank has.  It shows the modification and upgrades of turrets, hulls, and drone if its equipped, protection levels. and in the least if there's a skin and how rare the paint is and even the number of supplies that the player has.  This is a short concise and easy to understand indicator.

 

We have decided the  tank information displayed in battles like it was before is excessive. Tanki Online is too dynamic of a game to stop and study detailed parameters of tanks during a battle at the same time the numerical index gives an instant understanding.  This tank is cooler than mine, I need to be careful or this tank is so weak it's practically done."

 

OMG, I am sick to death of the idiotic smarmy condescending spins that Tanki puts on every foolish tweak they do to make the game less and less.  Why not spend some of this programming time in something that actually improves the game?  Like more map suited for the toxic MM, fix the forums "My Content" section, HTML, all the known bugs and glitches with turrets, and many more.

 

The GS rating is so completely useless it is actually kinda funny.  Just a player rank tells you so much more than GS.  GS was absolutely futile busy work for some programmer.

 

The only good thing about GS is that it seems to have no effect on game-play.

I was thinking similar thoughts. I have read zero complaints about the previous, more informative display. This is a ploy to sell drones, plain and simple.

Bought a done

now my GS is 8975

[Potdindy 866]

GS is certainly not very helpful...when I look at an enemy tank i want to know what I am going up against. If I'm using hammer, can i 3 shot that viking or not...for example

[DieselPlatinum 5,121]

Paints and skins really shouldn't affect GS score since all they are is cosmetics.

 

If someone with the same MUed turret and hull maybe less, but has just slightly more GS because of the paint and skin they are wearing. I don't care, I'm gonna show them who's the big dog around there. :rolleyes:

[CabbageRoll 3,018]

yeah basically idc now because i have 10/10 anyway so either people are same or weaker and because of bad paint and no drone they think i am weak so i actually love this misleading system

Probably. But for me, GS is BS. I don't give a :bip: about it.

[GuidoFawkes 2,361]

I think they should only add in the GS from your batteries if you have a drone equipped; like what the hell... everytime i get batteries from containers my GS increases... even though i don't get any more powerful because i don't have a drone to use the batteries

[a7x_Pedro48 13,999]

Anyways, Rico M4 - Viking M4 XT - 50% 50% 48% module - Assault Drone (2/20) - Spectrum paint > 8990.

Little test today. Same equipment (Synth Pop instead of Spectrum, but it's the same) and 8952. Because I have 262 batteries :D
