declined Remove Overdrives from event modes!!

[Babi 643]

They have made the Event modes super not fun! Even in 2020 they were fun! Hopper overdrives ruin all the fun! Please, listen to us for once, and remove overdrives from event modes! Hopper is way too OP in taking golds. Listen to us for once and don't add unnecessary things we did not ask for! Hunters and Hoppers, paralyzing you and jumping for golds, how is that supposed to be fun? Go see for yourself. Hop into an event mode and you will see 15 hoppers spamming ''go gold'' in the chat because their overdrive is full. This needs to stop!

[Iron_Man 2,376]

Declined

Overdrives are a part of the game. They are introduced to intensify the game, and increase the strategies. Hence their removal in ALL the event modes is not accepted. They maybe removed in certain event modes, like XP/BP and other ones only if the developers wished so.

I have an other solution: remove hulls from event modes, no hulls no overdrives.

I have an other idea: remove your post

Because TS have a real idea to discuss about for a real matter, but your post is just silly

[Tyre 12]

How about removing hoppers from dm event modes? (the ones with increased gold rates AND non-meteor golds), more than 90% of the golds are taken by hoppers only cuz of their overdrives. The players who use other hulls barely manage to catch any golds, either kill every hopper around which is unlikely cuz they are everywhere or no hopper around should have their overdrive(i.e., first few seconds or a minute at most of the match). Quite unfair in my opinion

[Maf 32,328]

I've said this in other topics and I'll say it again. By adding Hopper and giving it the overdrive that it has, developers have sent a clear message that they want it to become THE hull for catching gold boxes. If you want to catch golds — you must buy and use Hopper.

I understand why you think it's unfair, and I agree that it was better back when all hulls had more-or-less equal chances at catching golds, but changing it to what we have now was not in any way my decision.

That being said, I think gold events are actually more exciting and skill-dependent when everyone is using Hopper, because previously you just had to stand under the gold and make sure you don't get killed or pushed away, whereas now you have to find the spot, time the jump right, get a good trajectory, watch your surroundings and control your tank mid-air. I would love a special gold event mode where everyone is just given fully upgraded Lightweight Hopper, Plasma Torch Rico, Crisis, and overdrive charging speed is increased. With the crazy manoeuvrability you get and lack of stun immunity, such a mode would require some serious luck and skill to be good at catching the golds.

But if you, for whatever reason, refuse to use Hopper during these events, I guess the only thing I can recommend is to camp in underground areas where golds spawn directly, or wait for an event with meteorites.

Can we know the reason for players to use other hulls in GoldBox Events? If this is the reason, then why don't you make everyone equipped with a particular combo with equal GS??? Unbalance between buyers and non-buyers is making many people quit. When will the devs understand???!

If things go on like this, Tanki online will be known for hopping tanks a.k.a helicopter, it won't be a tank game anymore.

[Skeptic 20]

@Maf U say meant to be THE hull to catch gold boxes. we dont say we hv a problem with it in normal modes but only in event modes. And the way you said The hull its not like before hopper was realesed we were not able to take golds using any hull, we ofc could still take them

Actually, this is not the case. Hunter with stun imm or wasp, viking, mammoth can still catch golds with the help of their OD.

If i can add something, you say hopper is supposed to be hull for catching golds right? wasp and dictator was main hull for gold hunting then and yet it wasnt op it had drawbacks, but hopper except hp doesnt have any drawbacks, then why they dont remove other 2 things stun and fire from its overdrive? 

Simple. Golds are extra gifts in the game, so an OD won't be effective if it can only catch gifts that drops rarely, normally, because the jump is pretty much useless in normal battles.

Man, I used Hornet and still managed to caught 7 golds on this event. Not enouf to get that mission done but still.

That's another topic to discuss on. RN we are talking about Hoppers snatching gold boxes left and right (provided not a good solution for this).

Gold Box is just a bonus on the battlefield, you are not obliged to catch it. Unless dev decided to make it mandatory then that's when your argument is valid.

That's true. But that's kind of an alternative option if you want to have an extra challenge. I have a lot of respect for people who still try and catch golds with other hulls besides Hopper, especially when they succeed.

Just earlier today saw a wasp place a perfectly timed bomb that took out like 5 hoppers (myself included) a millisecond before one of them took the gold, and the wasp just got it. That was glorious.

Ohh really??? respect?! Why not give them what they want??! 2 different modes for "Helicopter"  and "Non Helicopter"

(myself included)  sounds crazy and.....
 

"that was Glorious"  that's just a mere refection of the glory of old tanki which was ruined by the super special helicopter  that uses its overdrive to catch golds, :lmao:

[Akshat.Pr 67]

We can see that now gold catching is just merely an overdrive based thing now.
Helicopters roaming here and there flying and catching gold boxes in air, which causes tanks to use helicopter.
This has made us particularly understand 1 thing, that like earlier times, those glorious days in which the competition between wasp, hornet and dictator was there, is over and only helicopters rule gold catching. In such conditions, I request the devs to at least remove overdrives in some event gold box modes, which they feel will be suitable for tankers to show their creative skills. After all.... It's tanki online not HELICOPTER ONLINE, this is surely one of the greatest steps to bring back old players and ecourage new players, as tanks don't float sideways, no physics in that. Hope you guys react as the tankers want. 

[adi133 2]

Its not remove overdrives in events its remove HOPPERS in events it became so easy to catch golds i think it doesn't have skills in 2020 wasp dictator hunter was used now hopper is used   to fly and catch  i can say that flying tank game we want to catch golds with skills not flying and catching if you want make 2 modes one hopper mode and another without hopper it become like hopper railgun mode not april fool mode so many player quitting because of this updates i hope you understand please remove hopper from the game or from event and i dont know what you will do i should see that hopper should be removed or from event . 

Thanks

 

[NikmanGT 4,439]

Its not that, i caught over 40 golds in the event rn and without the hopper, its not like we cant catch golds but its just that the skill u all talking about in using the hopper is not fair because it declines all the other  skill in taking the golds by other hulls. People only use hopper just for its OD, the devs introduced that skyscrapers DM event with SPECIFICALLY hoppers and  i loved it because whether u like it or not it gives people fair chance in catching them. For once, only hopper's od should be removed during event and we can have separate hopper events .

Why do you even bother typing and posting this?  It's a non-answer and pretty silly.

Of course things only happen if "developers wished so".  Thanks Captain Obvious.

Than sweaty players will use dictator.

[FrozenRailgun 1,771]

OMG... stop making those stupid suggestions. No, Alternativa won't do it. Why should a bonus thing like a gold box have to be changed?

[Akshat.Pr 67]

Btw, hopper is skilled hull, isn't it? If used with keyboard controlds, but mykey of concern is gold catching, so no offence for hopper players

This mean you can catch gold with or without Hopper.

Sadly this wont happen because players have zero voice in this game, forum is flooded with complaints yet nothing is happening literally.

Agree to some extent, but I think the devs don't do discrimination . I hope for the best, prepare for the worst and accept the reality. Btw, thank you for your suggestion :D
