esports eSports Tanki Fund

Don't think so. It is the best bundle ever in TO history: 5 augments, armadillo module, Crisis drone, 30 UC, 30 regular containers, skin container and a chance to get 7200 TK. And only for 990 TK. I don't believe a nerf will be done to crisis any time soon. Data need to be collected before major nerfs occur.

They say that, but is it really true? When you get to the high ranks, you will notice a common trend of Drones being used, aka "the meta."

 

Notice how Drones except the first 4 unlocks, costs the exact same in upgrade price, but are clearly weaker in comparison to the higher rank Drones.

The general reason higher rank players would want to use the lower rank Drones, is because they are running out of Supplies, and need to save.

Other reasons include they enjoy maining Drones, or that they can't afford upgrading a new Drone because they have invested in a Drone prior to leveling up. 

 

Edit: As for the "data" they collect. It is really seeing who and how many has what. Newer items are overpowered, by design. To get people to spend money for them. Tanki does not care about the balance until everyone gets it.

 

Currently Tanki is in the burst damage era which sorta succeeded the status era. Everything does way too much damage these days, and what was revealed in the previous V-LOG, is that tanks that die to critical damage, will have a tank that remains on the ground for 5 whole seconds with the Heavyweight function enabled. 

I actually find the "burst damage era" for more annoying than the status effect era. At least I could equip Augments to stop statuses. But with every Turret receiving these new OP Augments, 4 Module slots won't save me. But nope, people complained and this is what we have now.

Ranting because I'm frustrated. 

 

 

We will just need to be patient and wait and see how the fund will affect the change.

I am writing about legends meta.

You still see booster even after the nerf, you still see trickster on small hulls, you still see saboteur (probably maxed out before the nerf), you see defender on big hulls, you see crisis of course, sometime you encounter a blaster drone and you may also find an occasional lifeguard drone. The thing is that even though hyperion is at legend rank, you almost never see him in battles although it is cheaper in supply costs than crisis..

I agree with you ,
but about the supplies we (f2p) playing 2-5 matches per day so it'll not affect ,Second  the game is dead since 2k16 
-They add the 1k crystals on 98% chance getting it , so you can't get drones neither supplies , so they know what they doing,

I literally agree. Ever since we reached Level 12 (swarm) all the pages have just been us f2p celebrating crisis/ armadillo and the buyers telling us a) it'll ruin the game b)'balance'

c) 'not enough supplies' d) 'can't even use it' e) 'i know legends who have 5k gs'

 

While some of you defo have pure intentions , (e.g the guy who showed us the supplies used after an hour) (e,g the guy who told us about Crisis' hidden speed boost effects) 

(e,g that Deer guy who said he didn't mind us all having it), it's clear to see most of you are just riling us up.

The fund is reaching armadillo and crisis. You cannot change that. it is what it is. you can say what you want, reality is i've never seen the buyers who dominate with paladin and crisis and armadillo and the current OP aug complain about it. 

If you're genuinely giving us advice, thank you  

if not and you're just salty, cry more.

skill + good gear will always beat no skill + good gear

@davis.3d Except that I can’t see anyone who is telling you that. But if you want to bankrupt your crystals/supply balance, go right ahead…no one can stop you.

Mate, if you can scroll up the last 5 pages and say you HAVEN'T seen anyone say "You'll run out of supplies" and "I know legends who have 5k GS due to crisis" , then I'll just conclude that you're an illiterate. 

And I'm not even one of the players who needs to worry about drugs. I have over 25k of each and I won't even use it till it's like 18/20 (basically for the next 6 months). Oh, and I only play 4 games a day.

No one is ‘salty’, ‘angry’ or ‘crying’ that you will be getting Crisis or Armadillo. All I see is common sense advice.

Hyperions not visible? 

A) Hyperion is Generalissimo

B) Hyperion is actually quite common. It is considered a meta Drone.

You listed a bunch of individuals who are ‘supportive’ but apparently everyone else is against the idea of F2P having Crisis/Armadillo…

To be honest, I wasn't any of the adjectives you mentioned, but I was, how can I put it, 'annoyed' when I had the thought of people obtaining good items. 
Now, I don't care. What's coming with the result of the fund is more important.

Then I'm afraid to tell you that your ability to deduce one's tone and emotion from what they type, using simple comprehension skills learned in year 4, is arse.

Sound like you’re too excited about having these new toys to play with, but when everyone is telling you that it’ll leave you bankrupt if you’re not careful, you’re interpreting that as them not wanting you to have it.

In a world of @LambSauce's , be a @yellowghetto. While initially annoyed at the thought of the mass player base obtaining crisis and armadillo, he maturely buried his emotions and accepted the game's impending fate.

Moral of the story, don't cry like Lambsauce. You come across as a 12 year old. 

Calm down, no one is trying to stop you from having fun.

Just read said previous discussion on this thread.

Do I think Crisis will be nerfed? Good chance, let’s hope it won’t.

Do I think Tanki will make a new Exotic Drone? No. It sounds really stupid. But don’t underestimate Opex. I’m not saying it as a good thing but who knows what that guy is thinking or if he thinks at all

Not really, it just sounds like this common sense advice is flying over your head because you’re too excited about having these new toys to play with, but when everyone is telling you that it’ll leave you bankrupt if you’re not careful, you’re interpreting that as them not wanting you to have it.

Except I've already made mental note of all the good advice given, such as to use Crisis sporadically, not to use it anyway till it's nearly maxed and to not main it until your garage is already maxed. So how am I letting advice 'fly over my head'?

And also, I'm not accusing anyone who's giving genuine advice of being salty or angry. I literally thanked them all for the advice.

I'm just ridiculing some people in chat who are actually being salty and not offering any constructive advice.

Whatever happened, happened

@davis.3d and @LambSauce  kindly stop with the provocation posts. Ignore the user or mention any of the mods if you think the other person is breaking the rules.

Any further disrespect will result in forum punishments.

Finally you made it clear that you’re talking about in-game chat and not the forum. Have a nice day.

[GODMODESALVO999 122]

This world has gone soft fr. We can no longer have slightly heated but civilized debates in a forum without being perceived as 'provocative'.  

[YANUKFIN 493]

LOL. All those players who entered the fund who do not have at least 20K of each supply (5/10K batteries is a must) and the means to replenish will soon find out what crisis is all about.

And it will get nerfed along with helios, this is a given.

TO is designed to eat away at your wallet and supplies.

The developers know how to manipulate the gullible, they have had years of practice and are experts in the nefarious art of making cash, by all and any means at their disposal.

Whoever thinks that buyers will be "CRYING"  are deluded.

Giving advice is easy, acting on it is another thing altogether.

Enjoy your new toys while you can, it will be short lived.

TO é projetado para consumir sua carteira e suprimentos.

Os manipuladores sabem que os crédulos têm anos de prática e são especialistas em ganhar dinheiro, por todos e quaisquer meios à sua disposição.

As for the nerfing, that is surely inevitable. Truthfully I don't even think Helios will need a nerf cos literally everyone will max prot against it.

Crisis will definitely be nerfed and i see a new OP Drone being introduced in the next year.
