Patch Update #732 - Released 21st July 2023

 

• Added a new augment for Gauss to Ultra Containers — «Hyperspeed Shells»

  • (Note) The shell damage is reduced by 50% at close range. The greater the distance, the more damage you deal, allowing you to deliver up to 300% of the regular shell damage at the maximum distance. Shells fly faster, however critical damage is completely removed.

• The standard skin for Gauss has now been updated to an HD version.

  • (Note) Salvo reloading time is now visually indicated by steam coming out of the turret. The turret is ready to shoot again once the steam stops venting.

• Added new augments for Gauss that are available for crystals

  • «Faster Horizontal Tracking» —  increases the turret rotation speed and the vertical aiming angle.

  • «Hacked Aiming Processor» — significantly increases the time that you stay locked onto the target after it moves out of your sight.

  • «Large Caliber» — increases the damage of standard shots, but the projectiles travel much slower.

• Updated Skin Containers

  • Added the Freeze XT Skin

  • Added the Railgun GT Skin

  • Amount of Tankoins obtainable from Skin Containers has been reduced from 3990 to 1001.

• Minor text improvements

It only took 4 years.

As if there are not enough Magnum, Rail, Gauss campers already, who literally never leave spawn the entire game. Let's make them even more effective .

Better call this Camper Online. Not Tanki Online.

Edit: Don't forget Scorpion. They said (when it came in game for the first time) that this is against campers. What ? Scorpion is a camper turret. Not against campers.

This game IS already called Camper Online, since like a few years ago. If you ever been to CTF MM recently, then you will know.

People even managed to camp in CP nowadays

almost every game has its own camper style players, those of whom would never change their playing style in one game to another.

I camp in this game but i don't camp in anothers lol reason is because with another games you have fun attacking and you don't get oneshotted by everything that moves. don't know why ppl here freaking out its already obvious why everyone camps in this game.

I hope this augment will be something worthwhile. If the speed penalty is anything beyond 25% it's gonna be unusable.

The firing rate is being reduced, not the projectile speed.

Oh I see. I might actually grab it during the 30% discount just in case they decide to push it to containers down the line.

Except, most games find a way or two to not make this too common or effective. E.g., The score distribution and game design make it such that camping from afar is not as rewarding as playing the objective.

Here, it is the exact opposite. Devs actually keep providing tools to make camping more and more effective. Guess what? The most effective way to play CP in a big map is not by capping points, but by sitting in spawn camping the entire game. How ironic.

We don't see tanks equipped with flamethrowers or UFOs that the Russians referred to as "tanks" in real life either. When a game is clearly an arcade-style game, using "this is not how reality works" to justify certain decision simply make no sense.

It's nice to have some variety for Gauss outside of Super Solenoids and the status augments.

 

Faster Horizontal Tracking seems to give it melee turret rotation and the increased auto-aim angle also helps it lock on to targets out of the reach of Stock Gauss.

Hacked Aiming Processor has a 10-second grace period which is overkill for actually attacking a target with but it's nice to have be able to have a mini-radar on someone if you ever need it. 

Large Calibre is just SBE for Gauss where it turns it into a Thunder damage-wise. Nothing major, though now that it has Thunder damage, Booster will be above fit for it when maxed.

Yeah, only take them 4 yrs to finally stop copying and pasting... Well, at least we have more options.

Now, wait another 4 years for another less popular turret to get the same treatment. Let's hope the Devs managed to do so for every turret before the end of the world.

You don't see tanks flying either or firing at the enemy while sitting on top of a house like a vulture whacked out on meth, but strangely this happens all the time.

+ Finally some new augments which aren't status effects & paid

- Can't wait to see players with Ares xt/gauss xt/hyperspeed/crisis sitting on their base & one-tapping enemies

The crystal augment is basically base Thunder. Nothing special about it. Not even a DPS increase. Regret paying 170k for it.
