Booser drone = legalised cheating

Just tired of people assuming that exploits means hacks, which obviously they are two different things. The only thing that they have in common is that they are forms of cheating.

The Pay2Win motto is in every game. And we can deal with that. The real problem with tanki is that it's now becoming Exploit2Win.

It's the same thing.

 

You say we can handle P2W but you don't like drones.  And yet buyers are pretty much the only players that can get and upgrade the powerful drones like defender at a low rank.

 

The P2W is just taking a different form than it used to.

Never said that I didn't like drones. Just said that some are broken like camper, saboteur, defender, lifeguard, and blaster.

 

Another thing with drones is that there's so many of them and their appearance in battle is so small that we wouldn't be to figure out which drone the enemy is using.

This is most likely true. However this isn't true. Exploiters and no lifers can get such powerful drones at a low rank. They just need to save up, do challenges, and open 5 or more containers at a time.

Spoiler alert, not everyone have 10k batteries. Not everyone will spend 100$ a month to refill his batteries.

I feel like with good resource and time management you can save up enough crystals to use drones and supplies non-stop while having some left over for MUs and new purchases. Can't say for sure though.

Supplies?  Not a problem.

 

Drones?  Jury is still out.  I have a stash of batteries - but that is because I only use drones when it looks like I will really need them - difficult missions, etc.

Not really willing to deplete my supply vastly to test out a theory... let me know how it goes

btw.. all i have said in colour text is a lie

So this statement is a lie? Therefore the colour text isn't a lie, so the statement is true, meaning that the colour text is... a lie?

Hmmm

There is a typo in the title: "Booser drone". It should be spelled "Defender drone".
And yes, I need to brag more :X

do you think the devs would add a penalty of DA to nerf this drone so that players go and buy other OP drones so as to  boost the game economy? ( i mean the expenditure of crystal)

 

I'm sure defender will be nerfed to oblivion, but when?...
Honestly, I think the cooldown reduction was a mistake here, it's insane that you can activate nitro + DD + DA within few seconds, without any extra cost. Hyperion is a joke compared to this one.
I think that the nerf would remove the cooldown reduction ability and charge extra DA per usage. It's obvious nerfs/buffs lead to drone purchases (or purchases in general)

No lifers may get the special items during Challenges, but those are mostly cosmetic.  Unless they spend $$ and get the extra passes for upper Teir they will not be an issue because they rank up much faster.  Income-to-experience ratio is not much better than "non-lifers".

 

So it's buyers that stay at your rank while aquiring powerful items that are indeed an issue to some extent.

1) you're forgetting about all the crystals that they can rake up in the challenges.

 

2) I think this isn't an issue as long as they're not exploiting.

It's not cheating if it's legalized...

 

but i get the point.

I bought 3000 batteries on sale during Halloween sale. I had already around 1000. I was down to 2500 batteries and bought 1000 two days ago at 50%.

 

I did not buy a lot because I planned to buy Gauss module (I did today) and saving the rest to MU Gauss to a descent level of MU, probably 10 or 11/20

 

But I had a lot of crystals and I am lucky enough to have all the hulls and weapons. Still, I used a lot of crystals on batteries. And not everyone can do that.
