To be very honest, the nuclear supply does not seem necessary.  The game is already way too much centralized around using ODs in the battle. Half of the time in battle I am spending just by dodging enemy ODs or timing my own. Yes, the supply might not be distributed in large masses, but still, it seems like adding more fuel to the fire, even if just by drops.

¯\_(ツ)_/¯

yupe the game is now starting to fail in so many area's , they keep adding but not repairing old tanks to keep up with the new styles. we have all these supply's but can't use them fast enough.

Well they said it was for now only, as the supply is very rare and giving them elsewhere (in bundles etc.) would make people buy a lot of its quantity which in turn would ruin the balance of the game. Thus, it is available to all the players, irrespective of whether they are a buyer or not on an equal bases. But yesterday I saw in the vlog that later on they are planning to release it by other means.

we'll  see  with in a month . they will end up having them added into our missions and our shop to purchase. see it wont be a balanced battles if one or more players end up having them and the battles will end up being over powered ( which they are now due to Gear scores ) . they will want other's to have them and this is how the money comes into play.

To get the 4 protection module faster. Simple. This month, going to reach 2000 Tankoins. The other 3000 when ? In 3-4-5 years ?

It's basically another layer for the P2W Onion.

Slid right past Level 21 of the challenge and realized that I’d won the Paladin’s Jammer Immunity augment, but since I don’t have a Paladin, there is no place in the garage for it to reside. Since there’s no place to put it, will everybody without a Paladin lose it?

Also, what’s up with the Nuclear Energy? Will it suddenly appear in Supplies?

No. It will appear to you when you obtain the Paladin hull. So, just wait for the "Early Access" period to get over and purchase the hull with crystals. You should see Jammer immunity in your garage then.

Yes, This supply should appear in your garage when you complete the last tier of the challenge.

Thx! Totally looking forward to the Paladin Experience! ?

Imagine non stop Mammoth OD, Titan OD, Viking OD. ?

Hopper double jumps aren't great. If you have lightweight Hopper, it will prob be OP, for normies, basically nothing.

Eh, so what? A guy will activate it once or twice and that's it. With BP the maximum number of the Nuclear Energy supplies you may get is 4. I see no reason to consider this as a P2W feature or balance-breaking.

They'll eventually make it available to purchase in the garage, shop, and earned through containers and missions.

 

As for the delay, we will have to wait and see if they add it. My hunch is telling me that they will botch it like alot of others they have done before.

No such plans

Better say "Maf talks like you!" or risk getting deleted.

He's a normal player mate what're you saying... he's a perfectly normal player with uh - um - extra powers. :ph34r:

Spoiler

And he has a halo in his avatar too, not that I'm jealous or anything...

I already reconsidered my thought of this, and now I think it is another lackluster useless item in game to add as filler in the Battle Pass. It will become so scarce, where it becomes a novelty item, rather an actually useful item. It is about as useful as Jammer.

I have noticed that challenge give most likely ultra container augments for the same turrets: Hammer, striker and smoky, other turrets come very rarely, no firebird pay2win augment, no isida, twins etc...i hope that they can create different augments for different tureet like fire or twins, not everytime Hammer... i would like to see pay2win augment for others too, maybe isida would be next, who knows?

Please come in challenge vampire isida

I must say the Silver Tier has worked out pretty well for me this month, as I had intended to by Magnum and Harpoon augment on the next sale... and just as we get a 30% sale Harpoon is available for free in the Silver Tier ? Pretty great timing, so I was able to get Magnum and Cyclone for Striker instead lol.

The silver tier changes are pretty nice, an epic garage augment in there which is a first, as well as a paint and a rare hull augment (although those are certainly not that hard to get these days, but still OK I guess). The amount of batteries however has been decreased a by lot (from 15 to only 5 in each battery tier), but I suppose we have to make some sacrifice for the new gains such as the epic augment.

I don't however like the nuclear energy supply, I do think if the developers decide to make this available at a later date as a purchasable item (even from bundles) it could lead to great imbalance, especially with the 3 second cooldown it has right now. Overdrive timing, and predicting when enemies will have overdrive in order to counter, are fundamental aspects of balance and if such a supply is made available in greater number through future bundles or other means, it will totally destroy balance.

Silver tier this month though is pretty great, I must say. The gold tier changes are interesting, nice to see the up front price falling to 700 tankoins. I honestly think however with some of the powerful Ultra Container augments available in the pass that a 1000 tankoin price tag was fine, because if things like Vampire Isida are offered it would destroy gameplay if everyone is walking around with such augments. As I always say when making this point though - part of the problem is that augments such as this are heavily imbalanced. But that probably won't change, so the best we can hope for is that they remain relatively rare.

So 700 tankoins for the pass is nice, but honestly since they have been giving out augments like EMP Gauss I was fine with a more expensive pass - because everyone having easy access to the most OP Ultra Container augments could turn out to be more of a curse than a blessing, when it comes to balanced gameplay.

The problem is that this supplie ends up very quickly making it special, but not as useful every day,and a little  useless, I would be ok if it were legendary augment chests that can select certain augments if it hits x number of stars, like for example

3000 Stars- From the current challenge
3500 Stars - EMP Augments(which was pre-selected by the devs)
4000 Stars-AP Augments (which was pre-selected by the devs)
4500 Stars+ Any kind of augment(which was pre-selected by the devs)  
Note: you can only open the chest 1 time, when the chest of the next challenge arrives, the previous one will be marked as "old" and your only choice will be the augment of 3000 stars

Hey hey, it feels more like old challenges are back! I stopped paying attention to challenges until I got HR for Hopper in the Silver Tier today. This is feeling a lot more like the old challenges before the tripled BP. Augments and paints in the Silver Tier. Keep it, will you? It's a lot nicer. (And give us back the Skin Container please?)

Same, actually, I saved the stars of the previous weekend event and claimed them when this challenge started to get a head-start. (Big brain moment)

I will however save the new supply as i don't wanna waste such rare in-game object, in the end I got harpoon and my favourite blunderbuss for hammer and badger paint ^^

I like the fact that developers added one paint to the silver tier of challenges. That's what I wanted ages ago. Now it is time for more Tankions please. I keep requesting more Tankions because players do not earn enough free Tankions from both weekly containers and challenges. Please add more Tankions. Other than that, challenges are well rewarding. Many thanks for the positive changes so far. Keep going.
