Yes, of course, the Riddler paint needs black question marks.

shaft campers are going to get wrecked, mobile shafts will be fine

But they will be replaced by Magnum campers, which in my opinion is far worse. At least shaft needs line of sight, magnum does not. And now the game assists them the camp.

Yeah, I'm waiting for the all mighty Riddler to speak.

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.

I agree that devs need to make an animated paint of riddler and put it on a challenge, as a non buyer player, would you buy 1500 tankoins to get it if it would be in the next challenge?

I have a better one. Make him a skin and make it UC only.

I really hope that can happen.

Also, I feel that the buffs for Firebird and Freeze are way too much. These guys pair them with either Defender or Booster and Hornet. The former are unkillable while the latter can melt you within a second, literally (I'm even using Crisis in max. defense mode). In any mode that involve rushing to objectives (CP, Seige, CTF, and sometimes JUG), thses guys are OPAF. They didn't even use any P2W stuff at all.

 

In my opinion, they are equally dangerous and OP as Tesla now.

I think they buffed them on purpose, instead of nerfing tesla, they chose to buff other melee turrets.

The classic "nothing is OP if everything is OP".

I literally saw a few of them in Highway, a map which is supposed to be nightmare for close range turrets. And their performance are not that bad.

Let's see what the Devs are up to this time.

Yea i played a few battle using crusader and firebird with incendiary mix and many times i one-thicked ennemies (to not say one shot), it is a pleasure to play with firebird now after all of its nerf.

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.

They did NOT need to increase the prize pool.  It just makes it harder for F2P players to finish ANY Challenges when it costs so much.

You don't actually believe that do you?

And what does this mean?  You can't spend 500 TK.  It's 1500 (or 1000 if you completed a previous challenge)

How about 500

Developers changed it because it was 500. So they might not go back to this price.

We could get very lucky and the price becomes 600 Tankoins!

Yeah, true. It's that I feel they always wanted to change the Price of 500 because we got so much from the Challenge.

Before, we could spend 500 Tankoins. But since we get all these rewards from every Challenge, Developers saw that a lot of players are able to get the Battle Pass pretty quick.

They want some players to buy some Tankoins and Passes. So they increased the Price to 1500, but also added in 400 extra Tankoins to the Gold Tier and 500 more when we have all skins!

So we will basically use up 500 Tankoins every Challenge.

Now we just need to balance the 4000 Stars to maybe a little less. I always end with 3300+ only.

They already did this starting from this one challenge.

Are you kidding?  I had to do 4 Challenges (2 months) just to save up for Gold Tier one time.

Well most players don't have all the skins, so most players are not collecting that 500 TK.

It takes SIX MONTHS to save up 1500 TK in order to complete the Gold Tier to get back the 1000 TK.

 

It's like you don't read the posts you are responding to.

[RIDDLER_8 5,553]

I am glad that challenges have 3000 stars so that its easier to complete them now. Also, I am also thrilled with excitement that Tesla is only around the corner now. We will get it for crystals very soon indeed.

True, they did indicate that Tesla will become available for crystals soon. I am quite excited about it too.
On another note, the new interface looks promising.

The part where they said about tesla becoming available for crystals soon. 
 

It has been since 18th june that they said Tesla is going to come soon.

Just now, At_Shin said:

can you show me where the devs said that? i believe that 29th July was the first time they mentioned about tesla in garage for crystals.

Unfortunately, the devs also said they may someday make turrets/hulls unlockable in Containers only.

 

In which case, I predict Tesla will probably remain a Legendary turret of some sort... :(

Spoiler

My predictions of turret rarities:

 

Uncommon:

• Firebird
• Twins
• Railgun

Rare:

• Freeze
• Ricochet
• Thunder
• Shaft

Epic:

• Isida
• Hammer
• Vulcan
• Magnum

Legendary (Good luck getting these):

• Tesla
• Striker
• Gauss

 

But lets hope stuff like this doesn't happen

Hey, don't worry. Haha. Tesla is going to become available for crystals soon. The Tesla XT announcement indicated this much.

It is not the first time the Devs lie. The refresh button in the shop was announced in the vlog saying "it is here" (note the present tense). Yet we didn't see it until a few weeks later.

The Devs once said the vampire isida will never return, but here it comes, in a much worse, P2W fashion.

 

The fact that the Devs didn't announce a concrete date is already a big hint that things are still subject to change. 1 week is "soon", 1 month is also "soon". And who make the decision? The devs from "one of the best studio in Russia".

In that case, I should properly start buying all the turrets despite I don't use most of them that much. Just in case the Devs have drunk too much Vodka and start doing stupid stuff

Under each v-log, there are lot of people that ask the same question, and each times they said "very soon be ready for it!" or somethings like this, each v-log since 18th june so it doesn't mean anything to me.

Edit: just went under the first v-log after tesla came out and look what i easily found:

Picture https://imgur.com/gallery/qz8sZM0

By the time passes, they said very soon and so on to keep the hype of the players, just dont trust them. I already saw them saying this atleast 30 times since 18th june, each weeks

Edit 2 from another old v-log:  Soon, very soon :D https://imgur.com/gallery/53X6wQg

Do you trust me now :D i already saw this atleast 50 times from them

and don't forget the crys box they said never and then it's for lower ranks only

[RIDDLER_8 5,553]

Tesla should be out this month for crystals. We are now in early August.
