Need Guide on Updates - Playing this game after a year or so.

[CaptainKiller 67]

Hey, Moderators and people of the community!

It's been almost a year (or 2) since I last played the game - full sweat mode. Anyhow; I have noticed some changes, so I might need someone to please guide me on them. (or send me the link to the relevant thread). There are a lot of Questions I need to ask - so I am just merging it into a single thread.

Topics I need help on:

1. I have noticed there are no battery supplies - so what was the compensation process? and reason etc.
2. The number of drones has been reduced. I had no drone when I came back (obviously because I had those removed drones). How was it compensated? (if so)
3. I am seeing this new turret - the scorpion. Any guide to it, please?
4. The new missions? (Tutorial, Contracts, Trophies)
5. Sandbox map overhaul?
6. Did Pro Battles come back? Is it different (haven't tested it yet).
7. 4th Protection slot?
8. Why can't I use supplies without a drone?

 

Would be thankful to you all for your help!

1. Drones now consume extra supplies instead of batteries. Battery comp was 1 Battery/1 Of each supply.

2. Gimmick drones like lifeguard and another nonsense got removed and you were compensated 60% crystals you spent on upgrading your removed drones.

3. Scorpion is just railgun but better with slower reload. It has homing rockets too. In high-ranks scorpion is completely useless because of everyone using 50% protection from you. To hide from scorpion just look at the sky once a minute. If you see rockets coming for you then just stay near a wall.

4. Tutorial missions are... well... tutorial. Contracts we don't know what it'll be but from the looks of it you PAY something and receive a contract (mission) to complete. Trophies are augments that take insanely long to obtain. Nobody has them yet. Nobody knows what they do.

5.  They are changing graphics for maps, hulls etc.

6. Pro battles were always a thing as far as i remember. All they did is add a couple new modes and change UI.

7. Yes. Wait for in-game events to get it for 500-1000 tankoins instead of 5000.

8. Drones now boost your supplies. Brutus costs only 100k cry to fully upgrade and it'll boost your armor and damage by 50%

Check "Patch-Notes" in this forum every friday for new updates and watch some previous V-Logs to catch up

Yes, but I think it was free in HTML5 version earlier (but didn't tested it though).

Thanks for the response!

Could have been better to share the links of Threads/Announcements and these updates though. @Kimura's response can be considered a summary.
