It was there since the beginning....

It was even shown in multiple V-Logs...

And used by multiple buyers as well...

Well I didn't pay attention to the buyers with this turret, nor do I encounter them often in MM since I'm A casual player.

As soon I saw one of them, I abandoned the objective and chase him until the end of the match. Maybe that's why

I can't see how others can read it differently. Or "buff" means something else in your country?

This is the statement you commented on, so quite rightly I replied READ IT AGAIN, this time properly.

The statement you are berating me for was a wind up, if you can't interpret wind up from factual then maybe your brain needs a buff.

Basically you gave a reply to the wrong post.

You first said Tesla needs a buff.

Well I think tesla needs a buff.

Then, you further elaborated you believe Tesla is weak against one thing, without specifying what "thing" are you talking about despite multiple users asking it, and you expressed that you will keep an eye on whether that "thing" will be nerfed or Tesla will be buffed against it.

There is one thing that tesla is useless against, I will definitely be keeping a close watch on that, just in case the devs nerf it or give tesla a buff against it. 

To summarized,

You believe Tesla needs a buff. One of the reasons (if not entirely that reason) of that is because you think it is weak against one "thing" and you will keep an eye on future changes on that "thing" and Tesla (hopping the former will be nerfed and latter will be buffed against it).

 

I'm not going to discuss this any further as I have no idea what are you trying to achieve by arguing on things that you have written in black and white. This is stupid and waste of my time. Let the communities to jump in if they even bother.

Forumers, you are expected to be civil and respectful to others in here. You may reply to others or contradict them but courtesy is something which is basically expected.

OMG. I never knew anyone could get mixed up so much about 2 very simple posts. One was a OBVIOUS wind up and the other was a factual statement. The reason I have not revealed what I found out is so others can do what I and my friend did, it was fun and it kept the both of us away from MM and it's toxic gameplay.  

Of course you are right, no point arguing (not that I was by the way. I was only pointing out your mix up.) 

TO CLARIFY, tesla like so many of the devs OP updates is going to be very, very OP. 

I in no way endorse any buffs to tesla, It and many other OP updates should either be removed, or at the very least re-worked in order to restore balance to a vey un-balanced and biased game that only favours buyers.

There you go @Warpriest we all good now.

Technically, the rest of the people who don't own it have to spend considerable amount of crystals to revert what is done by the Devs

I saw 12 players with Tesla turret in one battle (event mode) 

And imagine.. When next sales will come how many players will drive with it 

Developers need to decrease it's normal damage for sure 50% protection doesn't make any big difference Tesla is still destroying everyone

As other have pointed out, this might be the Dev's strategy of increasing income.

1. Release an OP equipment to buyers to build up the hype and get some cash

2. Release to the public, now everyone will rush to upgrade it and buy the protection module. Even more income.

3. Nerf it to the ground due to "balancing changes" and possibly buff another equipment. Now, everyone will get the buffed equipment and abandoned the "new equipment"

4. Repeat for every update.

I wont create another account. I will only use my RIDDLER_8 account for playing Tanki Online. This is the account where I will buy Tesla when there is a discount on turrets.

[fghjkl54 1,517]

fire has been harshly nerfed it takes more time to kill with it and heating rate is low too i hope i had compect fuel tanks

[RIDDLER_8 5,552]

What? I want and expect Firebird to remain strong enough to defeat Tesla players as well as other turrets.

[RIDDLER_8 5,552]

Everyone is enjoying Tesla for crystals for the first time today.

The available-for-crystals augments don't seem overly impressive. Maybe the Dilatory is useful in some formats like CTF and CP. But the one that comes in the Ultra container seems to be the only worthwhile augment for Tesla.

Still, it could be too early to tell as the devs might tweak the speed of the augments.

On the other hand, I am happy that we got new crystal augments. It's been awhile.

There is a new bug since Tesla was released earlier today. When using Ares's overdrive, its plasma ball explodes on contact and causes self damage or self destruction. The same bug exists when firing Striker's rockets. Self destruction keeps on occurring. Please fix it.

This was intentional because there are more Teslas now so they gave us an interesting and cool way to fight back with clever use of older weapons. Tesla is still an amazing turret, and it was finally released in the garage for crystals to everyone, along with brand new augments. 

[RIDDLER_8 5,552]

This bug is bad and must be fixed.

What if you have to hold to create the ball when not in range to hit an enemy or another ball? I think that would make it more intuitive. It should take a good amount of energy of course. This would remove the need for taping the spacebar, you just hold to create a ball or to electrify a tank or a ball.

I think only balls should be mediums for conduction of electricity and there should be the same range from balls to balls tanks and balls to tanks for conduction to take place. Electrifiying a ball and killing someone that's behind you when that tank is very far from the ball is OP. If you hit a tank, friend or enemy, there shouln't be any conduction.

I think balls should be neutral, these shouldn't damage enemies, maybe a small hiccup when touching other tanks before desintegrating, no self damage as well. Enemies can use your balls. Balls should desintegrate when touching a prop without splash.

Last, I think the balls should look more like spheres. I think that would make it more intuitive, more visible, and we can call them spheres instead of balls, which is not healthy for those with dirty minds.

Been thinking of calling them sparks. Because that's what they basically are.

When are we having discounts on turrets?

[numericable 2,375]

I hope Tesla will get some shot effect and free to play ones in normal containers, not ultra. I currently own ALL shot effect except for 3 of them which are for ricochet: violet, aqua, green except for those 3, i have all other f2p qhot effect thank to shard update, in february i had only 15-20 :D

Probably next one will be the start of September, tankers day.

Ok, the balance is skewed towards Tesla. I may not play for a while
