They need to remove supplies, overdrives, drones etc. from MM battles, only them will I consider playing Tanki again.

Why not remove the tanks as well while you're at it. 

[Titan 745]

Overdrive etc. Are fine but now almost all F2P face this drug issue ... I ****ing hate it . It's getting more irritating in high levels. I know there is no use of only me protesting but I still have some hope ... pls save your game developer you people itself are digging your grave

[E_polypterus 2,374]

Would be good if overdrives and drones were removed.

[DieselPlatinum 5,121]

People who aren't satisfied yet with supplies being removed: "remove the game, it'll make the game so much better".

How can you be fine with OD but not supplies?  OD is way, way more potent than supplies are.  You can be fully charged up with supplies - then be instantly destroyed by someone activating their OD.  It's not even close...

MM battles are currently absolute trash, why would I enter a game when it lasts 5 minutes or so, and get fully f*cked over by a team of drugging P2W idiots? Forgive my language, but this is the state of MM nowadays.

Well, supplies were around long before MM was.   MM (and it's poor implementation - including battle length) is a separate problem versus supplies.

Do your missions in MM, then - if you want to play more (without supplies) go to Pro-Battles.  That's what I do.

Missions aren’t worth doing.

They aren't?

Wow.  You get free supplies or crystals.  And weekly you get containers that contain multitude of items including... supplies and crystals.

You don't need supplies and crystals?

No wonder you are getting wrecked and dislike MM.  If you don't do missions you are at a HUGE disadvantage.

go and play Fortnite

I play both Fortnite and Tanki, and I actually prefer Tanki. Sure, this game might seem redundant at times, and others consider it boring to just do the same thing for long periods of time, but at least Tanki is a chill environment, unlike Fortnite. Fortnite is just filled with people trying overly hard, making it not fun for people who just want to chill, and not be overly competitive.

It generally depends on your rank, at lowest ranks you can get into really heated battles, only at mid-ranks do guys want to chill.

No idea what your point is here...

I already have every M3 turret and hull. I don’t care about supplies and crystals that much.

I miss the times when people would play Tanki for fun. If you care so much about cosmetics and stuff like that, go and play Fortnite. At least that game isn’t P2W like Tanki. At least the devs know what they’re doing in that game.

Hold on... you have 14 mk7 turrets at Marshal, but are complaining about the game being P2W?

You have 8 drones in your garage.

Your original post makes even less sense now.

'I don't understand ergo I am right' As usual it's extremely funny how you don't realize players at legend are still buying. 

 

Are you that incapable of using abstract thought and proceed imagining a scene of a game, first gets called p2w for 10 years or about it, then MK rounding happens ... 0.98 kd your original post makes even less sense now.

Inb4 I get ban since ! mods ! pedantically moderate a forum which may peak 400 views on sunday! Yikes.

@wolverine848 said they didn’t understand, and you spent 3 paragraphs getting mad?

I responded to your post that had 2 screen-shots that meant ... nothing.  Absolutely nothing.

And you are seriously bringing up KD - as if it actually means something?  

[Sacrifice 2,278]

These polls aren't really the best way to know tbh. You would be bias to conclude anything from them since a majority of players are not even attending it. My opinion though, supplies play a huge part in the game. Excess use of supplies will not give you any advantage but smart use will definitely do. Additionally, supplies have been a part of the game ever since (Not sure abt the exact date). They have never really unbalanced the economy.

I have never found a statement with which I disagree more. PRO battles can nowadays be put into three categories - Silence Parkour, Polygon CP, and XP/BP. The only one of these which I would even remotely consider playing is Polygon CP, but there is no way I can make that work on my Shaft-only alt. On my main, it's fine, sure, but the boredom catches up to you.

Parkour is worse than that. You have Mammoth-Twins users just blasting everyone away in Space mode because they think it's fun, and then you get the hate speech in the chat from people who probably can't even make the jump from the long ramp.

And then we get to the bottom of the barrel - XP/BP. If there's one group of people which I hate more than anything, it's the people who measure you by the skill you have in 1v1s. I do not care for people who think that XP/BP is the most fun thing in the world, because it really isn't. Having a turret that can take up to 3 shots to kill a light hulls and will take about ten seconds to do so is not a fun experience. Once you also realize that this is also the turret that has been dominating eSports for many years now is why many people like me are begging for tournaments where it is anything but Railgun. Understand this - Railgun is the worst turret in the game without alterations. So, what do Railgun users do in MM? Load up on alterations like LCR or RD, that's right! If you can't play without those alterations in MM, then there are 13 other turrets that people could use if they just let go of that damn Railgun love.

Compared to a few years ago, Tanki totally isn’t chill anymore. MM battles are super competitive, believe it or not.

Oh ho ho! You think this is competitive? This is child's play compared to TX Ranked! Be glad that you didn't have to suffer that experience, where a bad connection would mean that you would lose massive amounts of points that you spent hours to get in the first place. Be glad that you can leave battles if you get a bad map/team without any consequences. Be glad that you can actually choose your mode in MM.

The only reason why MM battles are competitive is because people can't bring themselves to take upon a challenge and use something not brokenly OP. I assume you don't know who I am talking about, because you seem like one of those people running around with Hornet-Magnum, nuking everything and then complaining that Magnum is weak. So stop complaining - either take a risk or give up and stop complaining.

If you have every Mk7 turret and hull, then there is no excuse for not being able to perform half-decently in MM. If you are a bad player, admit it instead of giving excuses. Drones should also be helping you massively. 

And I'd rather not go to the game where there are 12 year olds screaming in their microphones about how they didn't even get a gun before they got RPG'd.

Drugs battles are one type of battle format, no-supplies battles is another format type. The issue shouldn't be with the format, because a lot of people enjoy drugs battles. The problem is Tanki insisting on herding as many as possible into what they see as the most lucrative format, by using rewards as bait. If you don't play MM and stay in no-supplies battles only, you miss out on loads of rewards.

 

Drugs may have been in this game for ages, but that doesn't make them a good feature. Personally, I've got no probs with them, but can see why people dislike them. I like a good no-supplies battle but map variety in PRO mode at most times of day sucks.

 

While drugs are an important source of revenue for Tanki, they may even be counter productive if they've turned off thousands of players from the game. Compared to a few years back, there are now tons of things to buy in this game. This game is quite likely to be losing out on sales of this new stuff because a ton of potential buyers quit the game because they hate this one feature in the battles they have to join for missions, challenges or to avoid the mults that ruin PRO battles.

 

If you are a potential buyer of aesthetic stuff, gold boxes or equipments, but dislike the whole idea of a simplistic power-up system, no point bothering with a game that offers limited variety for your preferred battle format. One simple MM option for no-drugs battles in a random map/mode would do...won't hold my breath tho.

I agree kinda, however why do you act smart for doing parkour ... Tanki online's dead.

About railgun it's not a valid justification. How annoying is it when you see hornet rail using OD and he shots 3 times 500000 damage, but when they don't have OD it's shi* 300 damage.

I also have rail + destabilizer and it's not fun. What about fixing internet issues? What about every other game working just fine without bad ping with tanks flying in your way.

How come magnum is still broken ... You pretend like players have faults for picking broken weapons.

People don't wanna play matchmaking yiiiikeess, it's a bad time for criticizing simp devs.

If you keep shouting that adjective at me it might become true. Not. Just because you assert something doesn't make it a fact.
