Just stop with all the new turrets and the "flying" hulls, and all the stupid stuff that is ruining this game.  How about fixing the Match Making algorithm that seldom creates a good competitive battle?  How about fixing the game so its stable and not freezing all the time.  You arent making the game more enjoyable.  You're just making it uneccessarily complex.

Cool to see you here buddy clanmate! I so agree wth you. Play classic pro battles, they really hit you with nostalgia right between the eyes. Goodbye MM, hello PRO battles!

Let me guess. Not long to wait means it will be in early access from Ultra Containers only for 6 months and will be available to purchase for Crystals in garage by 2023?

You got it all wrong. You can buy it from the shop for 300 dollars. The cheap special offer lasts for 6 months. Then it will become availabe in containers, and then after 6 months, it will be available in the garage at mid-2023.

In almost every vlog they make a point to state how “affordable” the offers are  ?

Lol Tesla should have been the weapon called scorpion. Wonder why this one is named like that.

Well, a scorpion jabs you with it's tail, which needs to arc over it's body to reach you. The missiles fly to their target in a similar manner. So I guess it's that.

To be honest, I do not really see an issue with this thing. Its splash damage is poor. The normal shots are balanced, and while the missiles are deadly... you CAN avoid them, it's difficult but you aren't "already dead". Whereas once a Shaft has its laser on you, you're toast unless the enemy forgets to let go of the spacebar. Not to mention, Scorpion's reload takes even longer than Shaft's, so. Personally, I'm looking forward to it. It seems fun, and with a protection module a heavy tank will survive a full launch. Idk about a medium hull, gonna be close - like with Shaft. And well, Shaft can still maul you up close; Scorpion has a blind spot in front of it, the missile launcher doesn't work in close range. It's not a bug, you guys. The rockets simply don't have enough time to turn around if you fire them at an enemy in front of you, so they'll just fly by and hit the ground as soon as they can.

Well yeah, hard to judge in advance, but I can only imagine it's potential in siege battles ?.

Who's ready for the 5th protection slot which will cost 50,000 tankcoins if we follow the same trend... This is just going to be an ultra container exclusive for like a month as was the same for tesla and paladin and it's going to be busted as all hell until the release it into normal containers/garage for everyone else to buy when they'll nerf it to near-unplayability. Unless it follows the same path that Paladin has, still being overpowered to this day...

Frankly, if we get to get it for free/1000tks in the next tanki fund or minigame thing, I wouldn´t really mind.

ik it's an imagination but due to charged attack that makes the projectile fly then curve and land on target if you understand what i mean...

Another turret that shoots into the sky so you cannot hide no matter what you do

I actually think the lesser you hide, the more you will keep moving and keep the battle spicy.

Maybe a tactic to escape from the rockets could be to sprint right towards the Scorpion user? We have seen that it has problems hitting the target in close quarters

I really do not understand where the need came from to introduce yet another weapon. At this moment the game's arsenal is being filled with farfetched mixtures of existing turrets and mechanics. Nothing new and refreshing. At least Tesla had unique properties.
