think about it guys

they removed drones and gave us less then what we paid for ( some of us who spend money for them ) and received crystals . and now there thinking of bringing them back into the game with Nano bots .. so now players have to rebuild up the nano drones.. to end up having them replaced with something else years later.

you got to wonder why Dev's enjoy wasting players ,along with Tanki money  to come up with  things to make players question there logic ? why bring in something we all ready had in a game , to replace it with a similar product. it makes no sense .. instead of removing drones why not add nano bots to them .

when nano bots were in tanki X lots of players decided to leave ... Oh wait did I just miss what there plans are .. in due time tanki will be ending maybe by Tanki's 15 th birthday or sooner.. is this there plan all along..? you got wonder..

Well this sounds like what they are going for. Removing a feature to "simplify the game" and then reintroduce it as a "new feature" with a premium price tag on it.

• Isida vampire effect --> OP augment
• Drone --> hull augment

And you bet some people actually buy this idea and spend big money on it, judging on how active the so call "Challenge Accepted" thing it. Do note that this still happens even if XT drones are also acting as a nerf. What if they are not?

What about armadillo ,since is price tag for update is already high and many are in mk7 slowly upgrading? , will they lose all the sum invested in microupgrades?

Agreed, but there is a trick known from George Orwell's "Nineteen Eighty-Four" . When they talk about "simplifying" the game, they really mean "complicating" it. They  said in one of the V-LOGs "We know that you guys are not fond of status effect augments..." and about week or 2 they create and add more status effect augments. So even if they will know about that "complicating everything cause of augments" they won't care and keep creating them. They forget what they say about week or more ago or the reason is simple: money money money $$$ 

That's what I said, when they talk about "simplifying the game" they really mean "complicating it"... 

We will find out after the update, now we can only presume how will it be.

About removing possibility to buy protection modules, you're ruining the game more instead of simplifying it. But it turns it is as I mentioned before...  New players will be easily crushed by the "older" ones with low or middle ranks with equiped protections and they won't stand a chance against them. Well, maybe those modules in low and middle level of upgrade won't be as effective as they are upgraded on for example 40% or more, but they still can change a lot. By that "update" you'll make the situation for newbies a lot worse and they'll leave as soon as they joined the game. And obtainable only from event or special offers?! Gosh greed is reaching ever higher levels!!!

Woah, information about Rating tab? It will be moved to the game?! I'll wait to find out how it will look like and how it will work... Now we can only presume as I said before whether the update will be positive or negative.

After they went to this atrocious format that someone thought to name it Matchmaking, 99% of the "updates" have been negative. So based on the trend we know what to expect!

I find that the Dev team is , creating a job, within a job ,to keep a job..

in other words why change the rating system ( where lots of players who all ready achieve those trophy's , end up now having to re-due them with the new trophy missions.

in my books all it needed to be done is to create new graphics to make the page look cool..

also remove the yellow elephant in the supplies , the speed container looks more like an elephant then a container .

see in the past they were changing the old maps , why did they stop ?

see the drones worked in most cases , but still needed to be improved .. or  just add nano bots to them . why remove them to make players buy into them again ..
