Did anyone enjoyed playing with the bonk turret during Arms Race?

[frezeandvik 71]

About the new Health/Damage Bar indicators, umm.. I think it seems good idea, but will take a while before getting accustomed to.

 The questions in my opinion are just silly and less professional.. But the more frustrating thing is their answers

Only 11 hulls in the game but I see 12 OD symbols. Spoilers for the new hull?

NO - Obviously it seems it's the Supplies icons. No new hull

Getting accustomed to the new interface would simply getting used to it for a couple of days.

but also some mind-bogglingly bad decision making

It seems more like the "bad decision making" is done on purpose at this point lol. Literally, whenever players complain about problems that are obviously a problem, all the devs, or at least Opex-Rah, just smile weirdly or give a very very vague explanation on why they did such unwanted updates, much of the time, with no real answers and no real closure.

 

And if it was really bad-decision making simply because they lacked the knowledge of the true outcome of their decisions, they should've fixed such problems in a relatively quick manner of time once they found out players despised the change. A few months at the most. Not wait over a year like they did with the Vulcan Incendiary Band + Heat Immunity exploit, just to name a few of their bad decisions.

"Newbie" could be an alternative icone for Mammoth OD (symbolizing health recovery, speed increase and strong armor).

True, I actually did consider that. It's just I decided to play it safe cause the cyclone icon looks more similar to the Mammoth OD's icon we have today, but yeah, it could be for a different hull altogether.

I remember that maybe 2-3 vlog ago, they talked about a new hull, maybe thats 11th OD symbol is for it?

It most probably is.

Why would supplies be displayed as an overdrive symbol? I think it is a new symbol for dictator OD as it grants all supplies to nearby allies and the user. This means that there is one extra overdrive symbol - suggesting a new hull.

Why not? It is not the first time the Devs troll the players. And apparently they thought it is fun. 

On the implementation perspective, it is super easy to achieve that. Just swap the icons, period.

 

Yet, from the design of the icon, I agree that it does look more like an OD icon.

Not to mention that the mods straightly forbidden players from suggesting the removal of those "intentional bad decisions". Basically, the devs and the mods are just pulling an Apple (screw you, we want customers to adjust for us, not we adjust for the customers), without Apple's quality.

Ok I made this picture for what I think is easy to recognize from the icons.. The rest are quite vague

I'm very impatient for them to bring out the new interface, it looks very cool and pleasant, the new icons, the new animations, the new background ... everything! everything is great, in my point of view tanki is going well on this path and for the next updates that will come

[RIDDLER_8 5,553]

@elcatalagamer

Please do not be impatient. Developers shall release the new interface when it is ready.

the one next hornet is mammoth (so the icon where you wrote mammoth is ares) next to is crusade and supplies is for dictator 

the rest is a new OD

[Hugoslav 162]

I am so excited for the new interface! It looks very dope

[RIDDLER_8 5,553]

I am also so excited for the new interface but the problem is that it looks too much like the mobile version. That is fine for mobile players, but since I always play Tanki Online on my PC, it would be a pain for me to navigate through this complex interface.

[Tanker-Arthur 2,971]

I would've been excited for the new interface but the gameplay itself no longer fits my playstyle nowadays. Every damage-dealing thing seems to have gotten a buff and the introduction of numerous negative status effects causes us to usually die in battles much faster than in comparison to 3 years ago...unless we invest in something like Defender or Lifeguard and the 4th Module slot.

I prefer Tanki Online today than what is was in 2015, when I started playing this game. Tanki Online has made huge progress and is expected to do so for the foreseeable future.

The Developers said they changed the 500 Tankoins price to 1500 because the prizes were not in converse with the price.

I think it means that for 500 Tankoins, we can get a Skin Container, 100k Crystals, 300+ of each supplies, 100 Tankoins (we could get to 500 kind of fast and not allow Developers to get players to buy as much ; they could save Tankoins and get 100 from each, allowing them to buy the Battle Pass every less than 2 months), cool and new Augments, cool Animated Paints, and other stuff kind of easily, and with a pretty low price.

 

The Developers saw this and maybe decided to make the Price in accordance with all of these Prizes, to 1500 Tankoins.

They also said that "1500 Tankoins is not the fixed price", so they will maybe lower it too! They could lower it to 1250, 1000, or even 750 Tankoins if we're lucky.

It could also goes the opposite as well, further increasing the price.

Also, despite the increase of the reward, it is still a price increase if you compare the reward/price ratio

[Cleric 1,385]

Why no one is discussing this?

The Devs are planning to introduce trails of where the Magnum projectiles are gonna land in the new UI, this will make camping with magnum way easier.

Very good update. I have 0.4 hours with 256 experience with Magnum. So this "trails" are very good.

Camping was easier for mobile players. So why not easier for computer or laptop players also ?

@RIDDLER_8 You can make a dreary day become less so with quotes that only you would ever come out with, you are a and imo the devs SHOULD make a special riddler paint that only you can wear in battle. Hazel give @RIDDLER_8 his own unique paint.

[Cleric 1,385]

I feel that Firebird and Freeze are being buffed too much. Now they are everywhere. Have you seen half of the team using fire and freeze in a big map before? When paired with defender and booster, they are unkillable.

Edited August 1, 2021 by Warpriest

[RIDDLER_8 5,553]

Yeah, I do agree that Hazel should make a Riddler paint. Not only for me, but for all players who wants to be part of a Riddler team or clan.

All you need is a bunch of black question marks on a solid green texture, perhaps a few "8"  as well. Done!!!!
