it is clearly above average but most skilled? Vacuums, unironically Sustained Nanobot Isida and some other non sense im forgetting about are definitely more skillful or whatever.

its literally just use railgun normally with a teammate in front. The "skill" part is 50 trillion conditions you need to meet to even get 1 pierce before hitting the enemy and that is just pure luck and cooperation from your team. Its like saying im skilled at opening epic keys because i got 3 exotics in 15 keys.

Tanki isn't competitive? Boy do I have news for you wait till you see anyone with "akuma" in their name.

speaking of side notes in case you have a mac is mac worth over windows? have a bunch of Apple ecosystem already. 

Seen Akuma/PRC/china equivalents every day, become numb to it, half of them leave the game after being close to death if they're not in a group.

As for mac's, if you want to game, would not recommend, if production/editing, maybe? Though if you are spending that sort of money, you can probably custom build something better with a desktop pc.

with only Striker-Vacuum missiles as an exception.

 

The goal is to kill as many as possible without dying, even once.

 

What does that first part mean exactly?

Also, just simply spawn into games with it, saves you from having to worry about switches, keep leaving till you get a good map, easier that way if you have time.

Forgot when you kill them they instantly prot up against you (not anymore... i wonder why) or start talking  in chinese or the most broken english imaginable. I'd go as far as to say they're a stain of Tanki Online in 2024. I have nothing against random chinese players i'm talking about everyone's beloved ones.

Yeah heard it's not the best for gaming but idc. my most resource intensive game is Minecraft if I had to guess. As long as it can run that i'm fine. Would want to do 3D modelling and just not lag when pushing Photoshop to the extremes. Also i'm in the Walled Garden already so might as well give in completely lol. Custom PC not interesting me due to having to travel a lot frequently so laptop is a must for me these days

That was my opinion, I never said it was the most skill-based augment, only that I consider it to be the most skill-based. There was no need to take my opinion so personally and get defensive about it. Just for that, I would have to say that when you have 50+ kills and zero deaths with rail hyperspace this takes a lot of skill. How many players do you know that can do that?

 

In the screens I showed in the last post I was at the back of the ally base, but this is not always the case and I have to move around a lot to get more kills. Timing the shots (due to the rail warmup time) with rail whilst moving fast and being able to aim accurately all while trying to predict when the enemy tanks will line-up is a skill that takes years to master.  You don't have to aim much with an isida do you?

 

The second paragraph of your message shows that you have no clue about the skill it takes to use rail hyperspace, people always say 'hiding behind a teammate is easy', This is typical of noobs that don't have the skill to kill as many as me with it.

Ah, I just meant that the new Striker vacuum missile augment takes a lot of skill to master, so it could be argued that it takes more skill to use than rail hyperspace, as trying to gauge the distance before remote detonating the rockets takes a lot of practice as they move incredibly fast. These are just opinions of mine and I wish people wouldn't take things so personally. 

Like Hypersomnia mentioned in his/her post about isida taking more skill than rail hyperspace. He/she could rightly say that I have no clue about isida, and I would have to say I agree with this.

dusted that ancient relic off. last used december 2023 or something.

Skylark TDM. x9 50% rail prots (cuz why not) in a 10v10.

enemy team filled with paladin + defender tryhards (cuz why not²)

680 score 28/14.

Like 10% of my kills were because i pierced my teammate. the second im about to shoot they just randomly move for no reason (what it has to do with skill?) i finally find teammate that doesnt move my rail shot decides to hit the ground mid way through (once again what it has to do with skill?). I finally hit the enemy it does 2000+ damage. 2k. damage this pathetic is a war crime obviously barely killed anyone.

Now what these conditions that are out of my control completely have to do with me being skilled with hyperspace? also when did i say its easy to use your teammate to use for piercing?

also for someone this rusty with hyperspace getting 1st place in a map this hostile for such augment is not helping the "Hyperspace is the most skilled" stock.

im talking about sustained nanobot isida. I get 1000+ score like nothing with that. I'd love for you to get even 300 in your matches. Its not like Isida gets stronger the more you use it, its still the same ol isida. so why im i telling you that there will be such a massive difference? hmm? It's because that augment is just as skilled as hyperspace if not more except it doesnt have 5000 out of control conditions on top to be useable. if you fail its your fault and not because 1 out of 5 different things decided to just randomly not work as intended

Time to nerf Vacuum Striker with the new change on the equipment system if someone joins the map and you have change either turret/hull you cant do nothing anymore and the new equipment change is so bad there was 0 point for that to change

Status effects still the worst addition to Tanki.  Is there any chance they can be removed?  Does anybody actually think the game is better off with them?

Just left a Siege battle where there were a couple of tesla's with AP+Stun, and two Gauss EMP.  Not fun guys.....

Edit: just left another Siege battle because there were two tesla pulsar spamming the point.  FUN

Status effects by themselves are OK addition. Not needed but if they're here well who cares. 
The thing that makes it the worst is them making augments that give status effects. The effects should've stayed as a rare thing (Tied to overdrives).

90% say tanki is better without EMP AP etc. the rest disagree.

Phoenix hulls shouldve been 500k points. Status immunity against EMP AP stun and JAMMER should've been way easier to access. Not to mention the powercreep moved on leaving status effect immunities absolutely trash with addition of Blaster Lifeguard etc.

Siege is my favorite mode but i have to admit its cancer as hell.  Everything becomes x50 times worse if youre playing SGE instead of TDM in SGE. Something that is already cancer in normal battles (pulsar tesla) turns into absolute show in SGE

Good changes!

Thank you so much for this update! I love the new changes for Gauss! Also thank you developers for your hard work on the minigame!

Tanki sucks at fixing XP/BP, couldn't fix 3 shots issue in years, and now they brought this rigid physics to hornet and wasp, well done...
