Turret-Drones!


Recommended Posts

Hello Tankers.  After watching VLOG-374, I decided to post an idea I've been thinking about for a while:

I would like the current tanki online drones to be replaced by the drones of this project.

Drones with a turret attached to them, 14 different drones.

Each drone will have the same mechanics assigned to each turret, and just like the other equipment in the game, the drones will have modifications.

The names?  I simply thought of giving the same name as the turret, for example, Firebird drone, Isida drone, Railgun drone, etc.

I also thought that the existing parameters in the hulls could be applied to them, and all Mk7+ drones would have 1500 HP of armor.

The existing parameters in the turrets would be almost all the same in the drones, but the idea is to make them a support for the players so I think if the damage, the critical damage and the impact force were equivalent to 50% of the turret's power corresponding, they would be balanced.  For example:

Railgun Turret

Damage: 1340

Critical Damage: 1870

Impact Strength: 900

Electric Cannon Drone

Damage: 670

Damage-crit: 935

Impact strength: 450

The drone controls would work as follows: pressing space, the turret and the drone will fire at the target at the same time, but I thought two keys would be used, one to lock/unlock the turret and another to lock/unlock the drone and so in this case the player has the option of shooting only the drone or the turrets or both at the same time.

Drones can be destroyed.  If that happens they will have a 10 second cooldown to come back.

Drones and turrets of different mechanics can be combined.  For example: I can equip Thunder Turret and Vulcan Drone at the same time.

Declined

Quite critical on this, Developers plan to remove the existing 10 drones, just because it makes the concept of drones and supply usage a bit problematic and difficult to understand.

This will make the situation more complex, complex balance changes, complex controls and moreover that feeling of simple gameplay would be eliminated.

Furthermore, if they are just another bunch of turrets shooting the enemy, what extra effect does it have on the battlefield if turrets already do the same otherwise.

If we can equip 2 one or more drones, that means we have the ability to shoot with sort of 2 different turrets at the same time, which makes the overall environment more hard to comprehend.

This is a fairly decent Idea and I myself had some Ideas similar to this, but this would overall negate the simplicity on the battlefield that the players and Developers are trying to achieve.
