Tanki has nothing to o with armored combat any more.  Nothing.  It is a hollow shell of its past glory.

 

As an American player, I am shocked that Russians, with their long and storied pride for armor, have continued to support and play this game as it has been turned into a cartoon of what it was.  Change is normal, but evolution of the tech, of the maps, of the equipment should always live inside the paradigms of what made the game great.  FLYING TANKS and and Sci-Fi bug zapping turrets are just but acceptable game play options.

Tanki lacks the grit and grime feel of what made it great before.  I hope Tanki wakes up and realizes that if they don't do something soon, the game is going to drift into sci-fi gaming, not armored combat, and then they'll be a cheap version of simulators that don't use micro economies, but full on paid software, and they won't compete.  Sure, they'll string lots of folks along for years, but it might be too late already.  You've tried to top something that didn't need it, and there are few, if anymore magic rabbits to pull from the hat.

It's just a damn shame what happened and what was done to this game.

Isida, Hammer, Vulcan, Freeze, Firebird.

I just checked my profile and remembered when we had gifts in the game. I loved the concept and hope for it to return with the new UI. 

I remember my friend trolled me and deleted my Hornet Railgun keychain. One of my reasons for quitting XP/BP.

With the exception of Isida, all those are one, technically possible, and two, with the exception of freeze, actually DO EXIST in some form or another, be it ammo or actually weapons platform.

 

There is not a TANK electrical weapon anywhere, and CERTAINLY no light, medium, r heavy hulls on the PLANET of offensive weapons systems, and even then, hover craft are transport, not even defensive.  Its just stupid, flat out stupid.  Ridiculously stupid.  No other word for it but stupid.  The idea is, the decision to let it in the game is, and the notion that it somehow ADDS to game play is.

Maybe you should play World of Tanks.

Can only get legendary reward with fracking paint (radar, prestigo, gold alloy, vertigo, eruption, surf). TT

And what's wrong with that?

Well I'd understand it if the paint was ugly like MT Fuji or symbiote. But can't really complain if the paint is good.

@Moisthero Im not taking about shaft Im talking about small or medium hulls with firebirds. Usually when they are chasing you, you stun them and have time to escape. Now with these 2 seconds I can't. Or when Im low in health and I need to escape from some smoky shooting me I stun them and have time to run now I don't. If u had used it before the update and used it after update you would agree that stun rounds for railgun are now useless.

Its role in the battle has changed. It is now another damage-dealing option for Railgun, which unfortunately does not mesh well with low-mid rank gameplay as that damage output is unlocked with Booster. 

 

Even with all that, I'm finding it hard to sympathise with you. 5 seconds of stun on anything is obnoxious. Would you like it if someone targeted you and kept you from playing the game for extended periods of time?

[flyingfire 10]

@TheCongoSpider Yeah 5 seconds of stun is to much but 2 seconds is way to low. 3 seconds should be good enough for me to reload.

Do remember that Railgun has a fixed 50% chance for a critical hit. In the higher modifications, you would have a constant 50% chance to keep someone stunned and unable to fight you back.

Paint doesn't help u in battle.  and you can only "wear" one.

So getting multiple paints as Legendary reward is indeed a waste.

Still would rather get that than an augment that I will never use for reasons whether its a garbage augment like uranium for striker or an OP/broken augment like any of those status augments. At least if the paint is good, then I'll definitely wear it.

You are so right, I don't complain ... 2% of the time.

Filled out an application last night and had an interview today. If I had to tell between that and tanki which one felt more like a chore, I would no doubt say that tanki feels more like a chore. Just goes to show how bad this game has gotten over the years.

Look at you, all grown-up now with your priority right.

I'm much less interested in tanki at the moment

It might just be winter blues (I hate November), but the 15 minute battles and increased OD charging times aren't helping

[PirateSpider 1,489]

Ah, I'm already enjoying the first day of not doing missions.

Was a fun 10 year trip but I am thinking of going, all battles are annoying people constantly spamming repairs and the stupid overdrive mechanic and the poorly balanced stuff and how I never get anything good from containers making me want to leave tanki. I might not quit if tanki does a update where it removes overdrive, drones and that supply boost system where you can literally spam anything and be noob-like and 75% of all gamemodes I play my team is a bunch of idiots except for 2 or 3 people, pretty much I am going to take a break from tanki but as another chance I may entirely quit.

[DarkPredator 212]

@Torontoman have patience?

What you’ve stated just now it’s just your opinion! If it was a fact developers wouldn’t have done such a thing. If they did then they are taking a risk to achieve a greater bounty.

it either they take risks or lose a chance. I kind of do agree with what you have stated but look at the statistics how many player like and dislike overdrives and easy supplies. So just be patient and wait for the better! Your not the only one , tanki won’t remove an update because a few have asked to! Just try to have as much fun as possible?

hope this satisfies you!

[Shadow_Error_X 50]

Personally, I think overdrive is a fun mechanic; it keeps things unique and interesting as well as offers different strategies and styles.

As for teammates - if I find some who are in need of help, I don't consider them as ignorant, everyone who's played a match has needed a little help at some point in time - sometimes it feels a lot worse than it actually is, and has do with needing a change up of turret/hull combos.

I've found that being flexible for the needs of the battle's situation tends to balance out things, and altogether makes the matches quite pleasant.

Did you play for 10 years since you are still at first lieutenant with this account?
