Make Ares Run on Renewable Energy

[sensei_tanker 3,098]

As we are battling climate change, it is morally wrong for the developers to create a new hull that runs on charcoal and emits dangerous greenhouse gases. Look in the V-log #251 to see what is up with the new hull. The smokescreen generated from the released greenhouse gases is being emitted in such high concentration that Ares might be the most overpowered hull because you can't see it, it's just a cloud of black. Also, the unreasonable amount of smoke coming out of Ares makes the hull even uglier. For both balance and environmental reasons, we need to make Ares Run on Renewable Energy sources.

Petrol is getting cheaper these days, we need to run it on petrol.

Ssshhhhhhhh. Don't give these incompetent devs any more ideas. They'll just make it another P2W feature.

[Amagi 1,728]

Good Idea. It should be an exclusive augment for 9999 tankcoins.

Fantastic ideas. The developers should add a fuel mechanic to the game, where there are two types of energy sources, renewable like wind and solar energy and nonrenewable like coal. After every 10000 meters a tank drives, players who use nonrenewable energy (gasoline) will need to refuel their tank mid battle. Every tank of gasoline will cost 100 tankcoins in the shop, plus a 50% carbon-tax payed in crystals, which is equivalent to about 25 000 crystals. Meanwhile, those who use renewable energy sources will never have to refuel in battle. However, this only exists as an augment for each hull and must be pulled from a container at Legendary Rarity.

Not fair for attackers.

Because we need to be aware of climate change. global temps are rising at a rate higher than ever. and if the temp rises even by 1 degree Celsius, goodbye many common species like elephants. its now or never people. we need to win this war.

 

PS: not writing a lot cause this is a topic that makes me emotional. ill end up writing essays on how to prevent climate change and what the consequences are.

On the topic of Ares, I wonder which turrets would do well with it. Melee and close-range turrets won't work, since it's a heavy hull and tilts while turning. Magnum would be harder to use, even with RGC, unless you stop turning/moving as the tilting will affect distant shots. And then there are turrets that don't have huge auto-aim and require many hits to kill, or those that lock on while moving.

In the v-log it was a joke. But I think we need to actually make Ares run on renewable energy sources. Climate change isn't a joke!

Ok, the world will not last another 200 years. What’s the point of protecting a world which won’t last?

It wont last for 200 years cause there are more people like you then people like @sensei_tanker.

Evidence suggests that even if we stop carbon emissions today, CO2 concentrations will continue to increase for the next 100 years. This is still enough to cause the same level of destruction as if man continued to live like today.

Moreover, mankind won’t last more than 200 years anyway, because AI will take over. I would read Fredric Brown’s ‘Answer’. It includes a really nice example of AI improving and making itself God. 

Hence, my personal opinion sees that there really isn’t much point. I’m sure you beg to differ, but I’m quite happy to discuss this outside the section focused on the game itself.

Bro, stop carbon emissions and plant trees. its not too late but if the temps go 1 Degree C up then we may be at the point of no return. covid-19 lockdown and the ozone is already recovering.

I think the only way this can be implemented, is if its a feature to use 'solar panels' which only charge in day themed battles, and it gives you a free-double armor or/and less of a cooldown every once in a while. Maybe this can be a drone.

are you really gonna let the "scientists" fool you again. They've been saying the same **** for over a century "Scientific evidence shows that the earth will burn up into a molten ball of flames in 100 years if you don't halt the energy industry and kill millions of lives and destroy the world economy in the next 25 years. If you don't all your children are going to suffer through the apocalypse that will inevitably ensue from global warming." we wait 25 years and nothing has changed so they just say the same thing again. We are really just coming out of a small ice age when things are put into perspective

there is a good article about it at Wattsupwiththat. just search up "apple and google pour billions down a green drain"

Even if global warming is real, there is no way for scientists to prove it is due to human actions. In science there is something called a 'controlled experiment' which observational data does not have the same value. So if the current data would be considered insufficient to allow a medicine to be approved, why should trillions of dollars or people's jobs be reduced for it?

I don't want to get into political motives for declaring 'the world is coming to an end!' and they may even be right. However, there are other factors like sunspots (the ever-changing surface temperature of the sun) space dust, or even earth's rotation that might be doing it. Everything is unproven. 

I don't think tankers should be worried about Tanki overheating from Ares since devs can always add a 'cooling effect' like that of a freeze to your tank. Coming soon for 1,000k crystals.

there should be an angry imogi ya know or a murder imogi. you dunno anything about climate change, your article proves it. i have read several encyclopedias on climate change and can easily crush your article. im not gonna do this though cause im not in the mood to type a text wall.

yea 90% of the people aren't many such people. this is the thing. people dont care about the earth. they only want to take, not give.

"According to the Intergovernmental Panel on Climate Change of the United Nations, nature puts 25 times as much carbon dioxide into the atmosphere every day as all of the world’s industries."

And did you see that graph of earth temperatures from the past 10,000 years? "scientists" only like to show you the past 100 years with the upwards spike, but look at the big picture. if anything, we are going to experience a global ice age in the next 1000 years

The source the website provides for that claim is from section 7 of the IPCC's Fourth Assessment. I couldn't find any evidence of "nature [putting] 25 times as much carbon dioxide into the atmosphere every day as all of the world’s industries" on that page. Perhaps I could be missing something.

I assume the graph you speak of is this:

Spoiler

Ironically, this graph actually fails to show the "big picture" you speak of. Data requires context; the website you linked does not provide any. This post provides some background on the graph. Here is a summary:

• The graph only includes data up to 1854, leaving out the temperature spike of the past 150 years.
• The graph is based on data collected on the summit of an ice sheet in Greenland; it's still a question whether this data can be used to approximate global temperature changes.
• If the graph was updated with more recent data, it would look like this:
