update Viking HD and new augments

[Flexoo 6,980]

Personally, I find the jammer effect a bit annoying, especially because of the randomness with which it is applied. It just comes around as weird that a bomb or a Hunter's OD disables your OD when you are like on the opposite side of a map. On the other hand, I like the fact that OD can be disabled, it can be pretty powerful and game changing in battles that very much revolve around OP Overdrive usage these days. When it comes to immunities, I would probably never opted for jammer immunity over something like AP and EMP, and even HI, which just seem much more threatening unless you use something like Crusader and Driver Drone. I would rather not be able to use OD than being heavily crippled by EMP or AP for 5-10 seconds

Only for tanks in the blast radius though... right?

Apparently not:

EDIT: Also just tested it out in MM and it appears that all sources of the Jammer effect cause it to be inflicted on enemies across the whole map. Stupid as heck, I know.

That can't be true... can it?    

So a bomb going off 200m away will disable a Titan dome????? ????

I think it only disables the ability to use your OD for a few seconds.

So activation is prevented?  tender mercies.

But still - that means a Hunter that sees a Hopper does not even need to be close to stop it from using the jump.  Or... a wasp from dropping a bomb on a suicide run?  wasp dies and no bomb.  Oh my....

Yeah, it's honestly a pretty terrible status effect, compared to the others at least.

Next up on the list we need Thunder HD.

I'm pretty sure Thunder is coming next since it's a popular turret, even though I want to see Firebird or Isida.

[RIDDLER_8 5,552]

@Spy

I also suspect that the next HD skin will be Thunder HD.

Gauss with funny recoil: Cries in Corner

 

 

 

I honestly think this looks like a really dope design for a new turret though XD

Not sure how a topic about HD Viking got turned into the Jammer Status Effect and Hunter.

But, I'm not going to complain, I go off topic all the time.

 

Edit: Oh, never mind, looks like we're back on HD skins. Dope.

Edit Edit: Whoops, only read the title, forgot that the actual topic contains other stuff like Jammer.

I hope to see in next HD skin ricochet or firebird because thunder has already its HD skin (thunder ultra) so i m not curious to see how will it looks.

So what about Hornet who got debuffed for being active on all ennemie tank?

Hornet went from being the strongest hull to probably the weakest now.

Same, I also want to see Freeze and Isida since they only have XT skins, at least Firebird and Ricochet have another skin besides XT (DC for Firebird and LGC for Ricochet)

once upon a time

mammoth was unkilled when his od is out (only wasp bomb could stop it) and now it's nerfed to what you see today

titan had a healing OD but now it's dodged by many ODs

I think they're both quite balanced now - Mammoth's OD used to make it invincible which was OP as heck and Titan's dome was abused too much in Siege mode (which it still is but there are more counters now).

I used Viking HD in one battle yesterday and it looks awesome. I reminds me a lot of Hunter HD, which was released some time ago. Now, that all HD skins looks far superior to XT skins, I no longer equip or use XT skins because they are inferior to HD skins, which was just as bad as the original M3 skins which looked like garbage. I hope that developers finish off all HD skins as quickly as possible, this year, and then after it will be time for developers to turn all current XT skins into (HD XT skins), which in turn will replace the current old and outdated XT skins that we have now.

Juggernaut and Terminator are left behind. Those two pieces of equipment needs some love. That is, please make an HD skin, then later on an HD XT skin for those as well. Happy 12th birthday Tanki Online. Congratulations for reaching this milestone.

Bit harsh but OK.

[RIDDLER_8 5,552]

HD skins now looks the best. XT skins are inferior in how they look compared to HD skins. I would say that HD skins are at the same graphical levels as ultra skins.

HD skins are the same graphical levels as Ultras, however the old skins and XTs, as well as Legacy skins, will always be nostalgic.

[Thankxtu 286]

I dont think XT skins can ever be inferior to the new hd skins . I can see how much effort the old devs have put to make such cool designs . If u compare them to the new hd skins which looks like designs made overnight without much effort especially hunter hd which looks like crap. And also making the HD skins a default is not a good move , lots of players hve mixed opininons abt the hd skins which is why there should be an option in setting to choose the players choice of skin . HD or the old skins being the choice.

Isn't that a good thing though?

Because people love the M3 skins so they expect the HD skins to be an exact 3D replica of the M3 skins. Just copy and paste and convert the M3 to HD. They don't prefer a complete redesign.
