declined Switching between Hulls and Turrets modifiers

[JerryStreish_GTO 1]

If there was an ability to switch between (for example) Wasp's modifiers, it would be much easier for parkourists. Wasp M1 is way easier to get launched by force of your or your friend's turret. People who already bought (for example) Wasp M4, it's quite difficult to lift it with M5 Thunder etc.

Declined.

 

This system would be unfair to those users that purposefully kept a specific piece of equipment (such as Wasp Mk1) all the way till Legend rank. For example, I have two Legend accounts, one with Wasp Mk1 (this one), and the other has Wasp Mk7 fully Micro-Upgraded. If I had the opportunity to switch between the two, I wouldn't have had to create a whole other account, spend two years leveling it up, just for the same perk. Also, the system would allow players to virtually change their mind on purchasing items, which is not the intent of Developers (once you purchase something, it is final).

A more important reason for why this won't happen is the announcement of hull alterations, made in the most recent V-log. One of the things they mentioned is the ability to make your hull more "parkour-y" using alterations, which will most likely consist of an alteration that reduces your weight down to the Mk1 value.

I think that was a joke.

Unlikely. Many people have been asking devs for years to add a way to downgrade equipment for the sole purpose of parkour.

As long as there's an alteration for Viking that allows it to gain more weight at the expense of losing speed, then I'm cool with it.

I'm not sure if they will work the same way as turret alterations. Seems like the ones mentioned in the V-log will provide additional protective benefits without any disadvantages.

Sound interesting, but i still belive it is a joke. Many players want to see battle chat and battle list for mobile, but no news about it. I would be happier of developers work on this instead of hull alterations.

That would be just stupid.  A vulcan that could immune to overheat?   LMAO.

Why should Tanki care about previous purchases if the new system is more fair? If it really is the right thing to be able to use a lower modification than the one owned, Tanki should disregard previous events and maybe just give players who lost out a compensation prize. Also, the sale is still final. Just like you can purchase a certain turret and not always equip it, you should be able to purchase a certain modification and not always equip it. I don't understand your argument.
