HTML5 Feature

Why does the new HTML5 version allow you to see when your turret is "locked on" to another tank? Doesn't it make long range turrets such as railgun too overpowered and easy to use?

It doesn't have that much range (it's linked to the radar), but I don't like it.

 

I think just knowing when your turret is going to make a hit or having to guess where people are hiding in bushes (or when you can't see them because an archway or something is blocking your view unless you change the camera) is part of the skill.

 

But I think it would be necessary on the mobile version (smaller screen), so it's been put in to the HTML version.

For mobile I understand, but the majority of people who play it still access it via online. I hope they remove it.

Pretty sure it was added for the mobile player base, but I don't really think it makes any specific turrets 'OP' since it works the same for all turrets. For me, someone who has played a long time without it I don't even notice it. But I would imagine its extremely useful to beginners who aren't fully used to the aiming/movement physics of this game.
