Patch Update #676 - Released 21st January 2022

 

• Added a new augment into Ultra Containers — Freeze’s «Magnetic Mix» augment

  • Note: Critical shots apply the «EMP» status effect, but damage is decreased by 50%.

• Removed Gold Boxes sets and Premium Pass from maximum item rarity categories

  • Note: This change will increase your chances to get more interesting items from Ultra Containers as the category’s chance remains constant, but chances of getting unique items inside the category are increased;

• Completely removed Shards from the browser version of the game

  • Note: The only way to get shards now is by watching ads in the mobile version of the game.

• Removed rank limits for PRO battles

  • Note: Now everyone can make a battle available from Sergeant to Legend ranks. That’s one more step closer to the new system of PRO battles we previously announced.

• Added push notifications to the mobile version of the game

  • Added an option to opt-out of receiving notifications by category in the Settings

• Freeze

  • «Toxic mix» augment

    • Decreased critical damage by 45%

• Tesla

  • Decreased ball lightning damage to values of ordinary damage (from 810-1620 to 405-810)

  • Increased damage boost from Berserk (Viking’s overdrive) from +150% to +400%

• Hammer

  • Decreased reload duration between shots from 2.5-1.8s to 2.3-1.7s

• Twins

  • «Tectonic Plasma» augment

    • Decreased the «Stun» status effect duration  from 0.5s to 0.4s

• Smoky

  • «Paralyzing Rounds» augment

    • The «Stun» status effect duration decreased from 3s to 2s

  • Every shot is counted for Critical shot counter, not only the ones that deals damage

    • Note: This change possibly boosts the turret's power. Make 2-3 shots to a wall before shooting an opponent, and your chances to deal critical damage will be higher.

  • «Sorted Ammunition» augment

    • Every 4th shot is critical whether previous shots dealt damage or not

• Striker

  • «Stunning Missiles» augment

    • Decreased the «Stun» status effect duration from 0.5s to 0.4s

    • Removed decrease of reloading duration after salvo

• Ares

  • Increased Overdrive shot delay from 0.7s to 1s

  • Increased Overdrive speed from 9m/s to 18m/s

  • Increased Overdrive damage/Healing radius from 6m to 8m

• Fixed the list of possible rewards from containers

  • Note: Take into account that if a prize is not available for your rank, you will not see it in the list

• Fixed the bug with getting Mk1 equipment from containers even if a player already owns higher modifications of the item

• Fixed the bug with the client's crashing after one rejects an incoming clan application and returns to the list of outgoing clan invitations

• Fixed the bug with the Clan license purchase page's not reacting to the «Enter» keyboard button

• Fixed the bug with the client's crashing when one opens a clan tab with many members

• Added a limit to the amount of incoming clan applications. 

  • Incoming clan applications expire after a set time period now.

  • Note: This should protect some clans from being attacked with spammed incoming applications

• Increased Showcase update price to 130 Tankoins

• Removed cards with the following items from the Shop Showcase: Premium Pass, Containers, Gold Boxes, Stars, Crystals, and sets of supplies

• Premium paint is no longer a perk of Premium Pass and has been added to Containers under the EPIC category

• The «Go back» button in a browser now works as the «Go back» button in the game client

I thought you would fix the container decrease prizes issue. You had a week to read all the negative comments, but you are too arrogant to fix it.

I'm going to copy paste what I said in ultra weekend post:
 

2 of the worst patch notes in history of this game back to back and its only been January. Way to go Alternativa...

EMP Freeze...no need to say anything. After all...why not copy and paste Jammer Freeze and lower the damage? Thats essentially all the work Alternativa has put into it and now they are asking 200 euros from you for that... again.... like with every other status effect augment.

Then premium...Why would anyone even consider buying premium now? One cont per day? People already just do their dailies to get 3 conts then go off or go pro battles. 2x funds and 1,5x xp? Same story with people barely playing MM after their dailies are over and its even worse if your garage is maxed out / your desired combo is maxed out. Also it seems Alternativa is fine with giving the premium paint away like its nothing. The fact premium is removed from showcase is just sad. 360 euros for...well essentially 360 conts and some boosts is just a joke knowing it was like 120 euros before. Its even sader knowing that... in some countries in Europe...this is minimum wage per month....just let that sink in.

130 Tankoins for changing showcase....well we know why this decision was made.

Even after the absolute disaster that was 2021 in Tanki.... I tried to be positive as new year came because hey...there is no way it cant get worse, right? Well oh boy....

How could they!?!??!???!?!? THIS IS NOT WHAT I PAID FOR!!!!!!1!1!!!

That's an interesting change, an artificial boost to Paralyzing Rounds' downtime.

So... kits only. Alright.

Took long enough for these nerfs to happen. Toxic Mix Freeze should have had 45% critical damage from the start, and it was problematic since they first buff freeze's crit damage. Similarly, Tesla has been getting free extra kills once every seven seconds because of the ball. FINALLY they nerfed it.

Overall, a relatively safe patch. Unfortunately that there's no Thunder buff though.

I believe that's typical to TO lately. Not to face the reality (I am not referring to the moderators that are doing their best)

Ok, but put them into normal containers then. So there will be something in the exotic section too, now it feels like a blank.

Please use this topic for discussion about new update. Thank you.

for the record I only commented on the post due to the fact it was placed in the wrong section at the time . also I had no clue when this posting was to be added into the forum.

 

• Completely removed Shards from the browser version of the game

  • Note: The only way to get shards now is by watching ads in the mobile version of the game.

• this is truly unfair to players who do not own a cell phone or don't want to have tanki added to there phones due to the cost of having to update it every time tanki changes they game.

•  

[Cor7y 13,862]

No container changes... even after reading all the comments about it? Seriously?!

[Russty 368]

So you can now get premium paint without having premium account? Not sure why, but that doesn't sit right with me.

[Marekos1111 3,091]

Interesting changes, seems like Ares will become OP.

It already is a nice tank, od buff, it aint big thing, people were going to my ares ball like flies to crap before the buff

[Let 1,398]

Hmmm So interesting updates.

I liked the Ares overdrive boost, it really would be op.

As well as clan-related updates.

As for freeze(toxic mix augment) , it is subject to testing, because this augment was very strong.

It is unfortunate that showcase has increased the price, because I have sold the premium many times.

As for the ranks, the pros and cons are equal, probably everyone will agree. A particularly good upgrade for events or similar activities, but I don't know how acceptable it is for battles.

 

Totally it's good updates.

I like the changes to Ares, it's an underrated hull in my opinion.

Naaaaaa Dont touch Vulcan mate. 

Vulcan is my Baby xdd. but truly vulcan don't need nerf bytheway

So, in a nutshell:

Yet another p2w augment for Freeze,

Yet another buff for Smoky, which is already doing fine in its current state

No change to the container update or rank up compensation, this means that you do not give a damn about your players feedback (wow what a surprise)

and Thunder is still sitting in the dust with no buffs on the horizon.

 

Good.

 

[yellowghetto 3,206]

OP Freeze, OP Twins like Viking OD, more useless Container changes, Ares got trashed, Tesla got trashed. Thanks guys. 

 

Another trash update. 0.5/10.

You get a 0.5 for nerfing Stunning Missiles.

 

[UnknownSinister 233]

Either Tanki Devs (and the CM) are completely blind to 18-19 pages of negative feedbacks 

Or they don't give a crap about the players' opinions. 

I believe it is the latter reason since you clowns are killing an already dead game. 

Enjoy the circus!

Surprised they fix this issue. Thought they were gonna just leave it there so they can scam buyers out of more money.
