Speedster Drone


Recommended Posts

There exist drones which increase effect of double damage and double armor but there is no drone to increase effect of speed boost supply.

I suggest the Speedster Drone which will double tank speed.

It is activated when you press 5, pick up drop or use Dictatir overdrive.

Will be useful for pulling flags with Dictator.

As far as I know, this is impossible to implement due to limitations of the game engine. The Speed Boost only gives 40% more speed, because a Wasp with 40% extra speed is pretty much as fast as a tank can go before the game starts lagging. So while it would work on slower hulls, you can't have a drone that affects some hulls better than others.

At any point in time, was the Trickster Drone known as the Speedster Drone? I had been calling that specific drone the Speedster Drone for quite a long while until sorta recently where I saw it was "Trickster". I don't want to believe I was seeing things that wasn't there. 

It was an easy name to remember because the drone design reminded me of Captain Falcon's F-zero.

The news post for the update that introduced Trickster suggests that it was called "Trickster" from the very start.

Completed

Will be part of the functionality of the upcoming Crisis drone.

So then the Crisis Drone is not a late April Fool's joke and it really exists?

Well, I guess so. it was announced in the V-log and sounds fairly reasonable. Other than the part that it's probably going to be one of the most OP drones, and you can only find it in containers (probably in Legendary tier).

Well, the idea of a drone that boosts your speed is done. If a speed-only drone will also be added, then it's just an added bonus.

(also I just like marking ideas completed)

Well, than i have a lot of fun for you with my ideas. Quickly write to the developers to complete them, and you can mark them complete. Good deal, isn't it?

I absolute hate the decisions of the developers now. Locking drones and other content behind tankoin only containers is not only just plain unfair, but an even dumber way to make money. Not in the conventional sense. People tend to spend more money on things they can earn over time, or at least just a little challenging. The amount of tankoins a normal player receive is just ridiculous.
