I don't know why people are complaining, you haven't even tried it out yet. These ODs make for strategic gameplay.

 

I know people aren't really much for strategy in MM battles because everyone's chasing stars. A possible improvement I can suggest is at least add a 30 second or 1 min warmup time to develop. strategy in a team. 

 

Also, you need to fix the Vulcan incendiary band. Otherwise, with titan's OD, Vulcan will literally be a long range indestructible flamethrower. You could do this by making the incendiary band heat up extremely quickly and increase the self damage by a lot so that the incendiary band is only sustainable if you have a dome.

"An online game like Tanki Online can only remain relevant if it constantly offers new challenges to its players."

 

Really?!? Really?!?

This game would be much more "relevant" if it stayed like it once was. It actually was fun to play. This idea that you need to be introducing new stuff constantly to keep players interested is total nonsense.

The MM is/was supposed to be a good update to tanki online. That was an important update, for example. The thing that I agree with you is that Tanki should offer what He thinks He wants to add to the players, then players decide if it's ok or bad OR/AND players say to Tanki what they want. It's good to add new things to the game. We need updates like this: adding a new hull, which has been confirmed: Ares/Mars.

Try it out first :-)

 

But don't worry, we'll be keeping a close eye on things. Balance issues usually reveal themselves only after a few days of actual game play, and the data comes from analytics, which needs time.

Oh yeah? Ok: How much time does it take for TechSupport to reply to me? Less then a day, but with automatic messages. Btw, there was time when I wanted to get one of my accounts back (OnePunchTank), I sent the message to you so I can get it back, you said you are going to reply in 24 hours and nothing happened. Why? And can I get my account back please?

I'm happy that I left this game, viking's OD seems OP tho. Perhaps I will enter the game to try them, I don't know.

Viking's OD is only OP until you see what the other hulls have got.

And then you realise Viking has probably the weakest OD of the lot.

I barely play Groupi/Hacki Online and you want me to adapt and change my style, my strategies and my planning?

 

I'll adapt to playing during Premium and 2X, and play PRO battles to consume my accounts one by one.

You do whatever you want. It is your choice to listen or not, to take on board (or not) comments and tips from others who are happy with the game.

The game mechanics set the rules, your garage provides choice of tools, and then you play with (or against) your brothers in arms and developers wining strategy.

No Drones

Ow...you don't remember crystal drops?

It was long, long time ago, not a ferry tale, but parachutes with crystal boxes on them instead of supplies, coming down in battle.....

 

 

:D

I believe you are so very very wrong about that.  In strategy you need to know what your team is up to and at least have an idea of what the opposition may be up to.  These ODs are introducing an almost impossible to define variable that will destroy any posibility for strategy because you will never know who on the opposing team is ready to pop an OD.   You must see how strategy has gone down the tubes alrady with the short battles, current OD, no interteam communication other than name calling...MM ruined strategy...ODs will trash whatever is left.   You will see how it will become even more everyone for themselves in the next couple of weeks.

What's the point in 7 minutes battles? You can use is maybe 2/3 times before the round ends... and in short battles nobody thinks about strategy. Bring back 15/30/60 minutes battles and it would be fun!

This isn't going to end well.

 

Hornet and Hunter both have the ability to turn off all your supplies - thanks Tanki, no point in me buying supplies from now on if it's going to be a waste of my money.

 

And in battles like CTF we used to use our overdrive next to the flag-carrier to give them health.  Looks like that's not going to be possible now.

 

This, I think, is going to be a worse cluster*uck than MM was.

How so?

 

Hornet OD let's you bypass targets DA (and module - which is not a supply) but does not affect anything else.  Target still has DD, SB, RK (and DA versus everyone else except the Hornet)

 

 

On a side note - does Hunter OD remove Mammoth invulnerability if already activated?  Video shows it deactivating Titan dome...

I find the titan dome is to big and distracting from gameplay. Also the wasp explosion animation is very bright and distracting.

They give you 6 Weekly containers and premium. Still you are annoying them? You should be thankful instead of being showing your poor attitude.

However, If you don't like this game you can leave. No one invited you to this game nor the game will be effected if you don't play

Thank you.

If they gave everyone 5000000 crystals does that mean that's a reason to play the game? They only did that so people would play more. That's such a stupid thing to say lmao, do you even think about what you're saying?

"These ODs make for strategic gameplay".  I guess you have missed the part where strategy went out of the door with the implementation of MisMatchmaking!

1. You have no idea on what map you will be dumped so 90% of the time you have the wrong combo. 

2. Add the fact that it takes over 2 min to get in the garage to change

3. Add the fact that they took away the English servers and dumped everyone in the same battles where are dominated by either Russians or non-english speaking players so you cannot communicate with your team. 

4. Add on top of that the shortening of the battles where you get dumped in battle that is just about to end

 

and there goes your "strategic gameplay".  Tanki is becoming a mindless game if not for the Pro battles.  Once they take those away, they are going to be left with a few new players, mostly kids, who will soon find out there are better games to spend their parents money. 

 

And Cedric keeps repeating the same line about "making the game more enjoyable"!  Judging by the comments in the forum, he is either delusional or he just tows the company line so he can keep collecting a paycheck.
