My opinion on the matter is that I think the shrug only looks bad if you are just spamming on purpose.

This just proves my point.

A functioning and fair MM system in a F2P game probably also requires a large player base, which Tanki doesn't have.

No one but themselves to blame for player numbers falling. They have butchered TO with their P2W strategy, they copy & paste most turrets with their hated augments because they either can't be bothered to make every turret unique, are just don't have the forward thinking mentality that is needed to do so.

Well no one is laughing except you and the brainwashed buyers.

you mention I have unlimited supplies, when you can earn over 450+ of each supply every week by simply completing free missions

LOL your deluded, 450 of each supply earned in 1 week, double lol. I can burn through that WITH EASE in 1 day and I have cut my playing time down considerably for over a year now, so stop trying to con us that you replenish supplies by doing missions, absolute twoddle.

Wanting to front-load your damage so much that enemies can't properly fight you back shows that you want to stomp on people, not have a balanced game.

Take note @Taspen  I may not agree with congo all the time, but he just nailed it to the wall what you are all about.

You call it chance, I call it 1-in-a never gonna happen in a zillion container openings. You are either naive are just pro dev.

Brutus is actually really good. Allows you to save Supplies at such a cheap price.

Look who's talking!

Yellowghetto has given 1688 shrugs, which is 25.4% of your overall emojis you have given.

Abellia has given 71 shrugs, which is 20.1%.

As a third party I will offer my percentage which is 13.8%.

 

When you look at how many shrugs players recieve it usually correlates with the amount they gave. Your is 13.9% and Abellia's is 12.1%. The one that shrugs a lot might receive more shrugs, which is especially true for you. You have shrugged so many times that the moment I see something with shrug and I make the guess that might be Yellowghetto I would probably be right.

Brutus shouldn’t even be a drone.

Remember, the devs took an already existing feature (Double Damage and Double Armor) and reduced the effectiveness, making it Boosted Damage and Boosted Armor. And then for players to be able to reclaim their stolen supply effectiveness they were forced to spend crystals on maxing out Brutus.

One of the most blatant con jobs by the devs. What they should have done is given maxed Brutus to everyone for free after that update.

Current state of tanki: terrible. Tha game is now full of bots and fake respawns happen all the time, with bots respawning almost in the enemy base... Moreover, there are mods censuring your posts like never before. My opinion about the current state of tanki online: won't last much longer and all the bots currently in the game will be playing alone very soon...

Wrong, buyers will also remain, the people still clinging onto their P2W BS that kills the game in the first place. Bots and Buyers who refuse to leave the game because of how much they've spent and how aggravating they've made the game for every other person. Though the devs haven't helped by encouraging the behaviour even more given it lines their pockets. If people just stopped being so foolish as to spend lots of money on the game, then it would change for the better, even if that included taking the game down altogether. 

Tanki is celebrating it's 13th birthday, and what a great time it's been so far. Lag, unstable servers, inability to connect to the game to take advantage of the sales, a supposed solution put in place which clearly hasn't worked. Karma for ruining their own game is catching up with them at last. I'm sure that soon it'll all blow over and topple everything left. I just hope that in the ashes will allow a new, better version of Tanki to rise up. One with balance, an actual matchmaking system, no overpowered BS and most importantly no blatant P2W.

I'll start a new acc in every 4 to 6 weeks for my f2p gaming. Battles are quite balanced and fun most of the time. This is maybe my 25th acc. Only problem is figure out a nice nick name  for the acc.

That is the only way to go these days.

I've spent a lot of time upgrading my garage and most of it is useless now. For example defender drone 20/20 - TRASH.

Almost all turrets and hulls are 20/20 and they get TRASHED within seconds. Everyone else is using some kind of superpowered drone or hack.

Remember - DO NOT spend any money on this game. Do not support this rubbish.

I give a lot of shrugs because I disagree with a lot of people on the Forum, is there something wrong with that? It isn't the same as searching through old posts and just spamming shrugs just to get payback or something. Just like now I give a shrug to you. It isn't spamming.

Agree, and disagree. 

It took away the element the old Tanki had. Simply being Double Armor and Double Damage. 

But with the current situation of unbalanced Drones, and Drones a primary third wheel of garage upgrades and GS, you have no other choice but to accept it, and upgrade Drones.

There are many players at high ranks with low GS, Brutus is the way to go to make up for the lost.

I also diagree with a lot of players on forum, probably everyone does as well. However, it's hard to find someone similar to you. During your periods of activity on forum it's fairly easy to guess who is shrugging. Where else does that happen? It may happen during the heated discussion where players gaslight, flame eachother etc resulting in "shrug wars". Usually if someone disagree with someone they either reply or ignore, shrugging is mainly if something blatantly incorrect. Sometimes people post rhetorical question (it might be alright to shrug that).

 

So your unusual amount of shrugs makes it seem like you are indiscriminately spamming  shrugs as soon as you see someone's name without even reading content. Someone might retaliate for that. First time, when I saw you on forum shrugging multiple replies in the row, my impression was that you are probably some edgy kid. What you do seems deliberate and you are not alone, there is also [Redacted] (aka Fire_shrugger)  and [Redacted] (his reputation stats padding-> obvious discrepancy with more than 60% emotes that are shrugs and "saw it").

 

EDIT:If you want to set the bar for giving shrugs so low, make sure you will not complain about shrugs received. If that happens people might have to review your previous posts and who knows if someone applies your rules for shrugging, brace yourself for special reviewed feedback on your old posts, don't come crying about receiving shrugs.

Status Durations halved does nothing. It only ruins the long range Turrets with slow reload.

With tank HP doubled, the only viable way to destroy enemies, are by using short or melee range Turrets which is incredibly unbalanced. 

I do not see on the post where you would want OD charges nerfed. Only buffing damage to compensate for the doubled health. 

Tanks with doubled health will make Tanks nearly impossible to destroy without Status Augments. No nerf to Modules? Immunity's still exist? Long range Turrets become cringe?

Healing halved is an interesting suggestion. With another Mad Tanks event, I can see ASL being ruined, TDM battles becoming bland, SGE being impossible to win without Status Augments (It already sorta is, but the current Tank HP makes it possible to destroy tanks quick enough to prevent team dominance) , TJR being ruined by Vikings (not that it already isn't), CP being bland, and CTF being Medium Hulls only (not that it already isn't).

 

The only logical nerf you suggested are the speed bonuses being halved. Trickster Drones are running rampant with Paladin ODs. I'd rather see Trickster Drone or Paladin OD's polarization effect, or Viking OD duration nerfed than seeing all Tanks with double HP.

I find it funny when people complain about the new augments in the game. However, I quite enjoy them. They create a fascinating and new dynamic to the game that otherwise would have become bland and pointless. These new augments allow for players to stay engaged during events each week to earn containers and test their luck. Play styles can completely change for every turret just by equipping a new alteration. I am very satisfied with the game at the moment. The only thing I would recommend is more options other than the free tiers of the battle pass for people to earn some nice and fun augments. Thanks for the poll

I agree, I already adapted to the new age of Tanki, and it provides a lot more ways to play the game than it did before.

It's a shame a group of people don't.

[King.David 371]

Ladies ladies............Why is there bickering over an irrelevant 'shrug' emoji? The game has more pressing matters

[yellowghetto 3,206]

Firstly, Tanki has added venues for everyone to complete missions and tasks to either gain an augment through the free section of the battle pass, or through chance by opening Ultra containers through special missions. With the addition of defensive augments for hulls, which can often be obtained through the free section of the battle pass twice a month, players can change how they defend themselves in battles. If Tanki were going to allow everyone to simply aquire these new augments free of charge, they would have to charge players to even play the game. I think adding new augments that earn them money, while also giving f2p players options to obtain free defensive augments is a perfect balance between f2p and p2w playsers. 

 

Hey Krokorok, Tanki gives many chances for players to secure free ultra and normal containers every week. Both buyers and non-buyers have the same odds of acquiring new items

Okay, okay. Agree and disagree on this.

Augments were created to give more diversity to the game. While some Augments are clearly stronger than others, it doesn't ruin the element or uniqueness of a Turret if they add Status Augments. No Turret except Firebird or Freeze applied a "Status Effect" in the earlier years of the project. Lots of Forum players complain about Status Augments, but then immediately turn to a point of Turrets becoming too similar to each other when someone likes to bring it up.

As an owner of two free to play accounts, and playing every day, I have no problem of collecting Status Augments, and acquiring high GS. The standard Containers added Legendary Augments seemed to have given free-to-play players a decent chance of collecting them before reaching the high ranks. If someone doesn't try to finish Challenges, or do missions for Containers, why should they randomly get buffs to their accounts? You might as well play PRO-Battles, to which the Devs are currently working on.

 

Lastly, about your comment on perfect balance between f2p, and p2w. I have to agree with the people above. There is obviously no balance between someone who has the money to spend on Tanki for 200 Ultra Containers verses the average player who just plays and do missions every day.

On 5/26/2022 at 9:23 AM, Taspen said:

There are lots of rules for the press account that everyone has to follow. Also, every augment gets nerfed, so idk what you're saying there. There are drones such as Brutus (which I use because it is actually really good) that are perfectly fine for f2p players to use

 

On 5/26/2022 at 8:21 AM, LambSauce said:

Not like you would know, as someone with a press account with fully upgraded equipment, virtually unlimited supplies and all the best augments. But yeah, keep talking about how you find it “funny” when people complain.

Yeah, in case you didn't know he is correct. Press accounts are for Content, and are not readily available to all the YouTubers at all times.

There are additional rules for press accounts such as, not supposed to catch Gold Boxes, or finishing matches to take away the normal player's fund.

In a way besides content, it is a way for the YTbers to test out new Augments.  

 

Edit: My apologies, got distracted and didn't see your full discussion, but I am pretty sure press accounts are still monitored in some way shape or form. I don't think a YouTuber would want to risk breaking the rules anyways because it could get them cancelled from the YouTubers TO program.

I am only giving shrugs to the one FaMoUs "group" of friends on forum, they know well who they are. They are constantly giving them likes and agrees, but shrug to everyone else. 

+ I am giving shrugs to forum mods when they are praising  devs on every post they make and also when they are deleting and censoring comments of the few people on forum which are spitting reality of tanki online.

Eventhough that I don't want to agree with you in any case but you get me here, many moderators just close and stop discussions when it reach a point they don't want it to continue and saying if you have any overdue - send it PM.
