I approve of this event

[Tekken 436]

Shock nanobot injection is joke 

Even if you gifted this augment to all the players for free nobody would play with it, its unfinished augment.

I dont know why I am gonna bother to write another wall of text when I know well that nothing will ever change in this game but here I go with another futile effort 

 

Whats wrong with this augment? 

• No assist point for boosting damage of allies. 
• Very weak healing from which you barely can get some points, now even critical healing is nerfed, meaning even if I tried to pair this with dictator or hornet to use critical healing to my advantage I would still do nothing.  
• Boosted dmg has lifetime only 1s after last tick applied forcing players to constantly heal and do nothing else in battle. 
• No additional benefits, stock isida has same dmg output + it has better healing = this augment is worse than stock.

Spoiler

In vlog you did mention this augment has only slightly reduced healing, in fact its -75 % healing redued, that seem like a joke, do you even know parameters of augment you are trying to sell to us? 

 

How this augment should look? 

 

First version - 

•  When player whos damage is getting boosted kills enemy player you will get assist kill points for that kill.  
• Healing reduced only by 20-25 %  Critical Healing reduced by 50 %  

Uses - overall good support for team in any situation. Either by healing or by boosting dmg. 

in a case you are lazy to program new assist points distribution for boosting dmg into game

 

Second version -

This version focuses on longer life-time of boosted dmg,  player will not get points for boosting dmg when enemy is killed, but  will be able to help more than 1 allied tank with boosting dmg at the same time or help with attacking enemy while damage is still boosted. 

• Boosted dmg after last healing tick will disappear after 3s. - This way player is not bound to constantly heal and follow player in order to provide boosted dmg.
• Boosted dmg after crit healing tick will have 6s life-time and cant be prolonged by normal healing untill it reaches life-time under 3s.  
• Critical healing reduced by 75 % 
• Normal healing reduced by 50 %

Uses - good synergy with agressive playstyle and meele range turrets, boosting 1-3 meele range players at the same time or help them attacking while their dmg is boosted. 

 

 

Third version - 

• Attacking player will disable his double dmg for the time he is attacked, double dmg will be active 1s after last tick of dmg. 
• Healing ally player will boost his dmg ( same like now)
• Healing and critical healing (same like now)

Uses - let this augment be more attack focused instead of trying to figure out what exactly would be good for supportive role to be benefitial both for team and player providing support. This way it will be strong for attack with the option for occasional little boost when needed. Not as strong as freeze but could work very well. 

 

Fourth version -

Combination of Second and Third version even more attack focused.

• Attacking player will disable his double dmg for the time he is attacked, double dmg will be active 1s after last tick of dmg.
• Boosted dmg after last healing tick will disappear after 3s. 
• Boosted dmg after crit healing tick will have 6s life-time and cant be prolonged by normal healing untill it reaches life-time under 3s.  
• Healing reduced by 99 %
• Critical healing reduced by 99 % 
• Energy consumption when healing +200 % 
• Energy consumption when idle +100 % 

 

 Uses - a very good offensive augment that could rival vampire nanobots

So we're copy and pasting events and reducing the amount of missions. WE ARE COOKED

[someonejustsaid 8]

I genuinely think we should get new creative events. As taspen said, the copy/pasting of events should be tackled.
In addition to this well known issue, what I don't appreciate is the duplicate augments to receive. Aside from the new augments, most of players have the other augments. basically there will be checkpoints with no rewads which doesn't make sense to me. Having keys instead is fair as an idea.

It's not that easy to come up with new event ideas  

We usually re-use the same event type 3 times.

We will have some new types of events this year.

[D3DPRO 12]

Why did they edit the number of missions? I opened the event website and counted 26 missions, then a few hours later they edited it down to 20.

Why not ask your player base for ideas, or does getting them involved go against TO doctrine.

There are so many ideas for so many aspects of TO, and they all get ignored. Push the boat out and start incorporating some of the ideas players come up with.

Some of them are actually not that bad.

Is it possible, at atleast, to update the bundles and avoid the usual repetitive ones?

Maybe encourage the community to pool in some event ideas, and use that. Definitely better than a recycled event.

 

Oh and btw we gotta drop a BAG just to get the new augment. Coming by almost 3 million crystals is pretty hard just saying.

Previous missions were wrong, my bad.

Anyone may send their ideas to us, but we haven't received any event ideas from players yet. 

I mean, website event ideas, such ideas like Tankopoly, Office, and so on. Not ideas about in-game events.

@Marcus you might wanna tell the devs to check the shop in all regions, I can not enter the shop whatsoever... It always tells me "Unkown error RunTimeException: Service class not registered in OSGi"
I want to buy the Event pass...

Thanks, we are already on it, working on a hotfix

"In exchange for a slight reduction in healing speed"

Lol. 

 

 

They better be speaking from the future where it already has improvements to make it worth intentionally picking. The augment in its current state is pointless. I get significantly more frustrated trying to make it work than any satisfaction I can possibly get from it

It's fun to watch you learn how tanki actually works beyond the +1/-1's.

[POWER-OF-ONE 217]

@Jeers4U

@TheCongoSpider knows how the game works just as we do. He does not however give out his opinions in the way we do, maybe he should, his choice.

He explains to others the sometimes complicated wording used by the devs to explain their patch notes, which goes way over the heads of most players.

He also breaks down any updates pertaining to garage changes, the +1/-1 you referred to.

In a nutshell----

                  

Each to their own. 

@Jeers4U and me battle constantly with the system (and It's bot mods) because it is totally broken and inherently unfair.

@TheCongoSpider battles with facts and figures which in some cases seem ridiculous.

As for the Isida augment - it gives up It's primary function in order to enhance another team members function. 

In order to see it work as intended you need two players able to exploit it's mechanics, which basically takes skill and timing. Choosing the right target at the right moment will most likely yield favourable results in battle. This of course is way easier said than done.

With the myriad of ways you can get destroyed in seconds in battle, I doubt very much that this augment will get used very much by anyone.

It needs something more//enhanced to warrant using it, because in It's current form there is no real advantage gained for the Isida user itself. At the end of the battle, what has the player using Isida gained in regards to rep points, experience, crystals and completing missions, not a lot.

(I know. Perhaps I should have used the wording 'voice your opinion' instead. I have nothing but mad respect for Congo's efforts. I would never get that level of involved in an online game. They always disappoint in the end.)

You already gave the same augments last time.  Isida Shock Nanobot Injection, Railgun «Excalibur» Rounds...
There are hundreds of augments in this game. 

it makes 0 sense to give the same augments again.

This is laziness.

[WieLKo-PoLski 342]

Regarding the mentioned above repetetiveness and making creative events, I'd like to point out one certain thing - contests. Shortage of contests.

I don't mean here those events like mini-games, Sakura Blossoms, Team Contracts, funds etc. Real contests, where creativity and imagination counts or to do a small task (not paid one) to participate in a draw or to get a small prize. And what's imporant, for fun. How many contests there were since 2023 excluding the V-LOG ones? I've counted a few of them only, for example Masters of Parkour 2023 and Parkour Survival in 2025.

What happened with all the Mine Art contests, what happened with all the card contests, tank painting and Gold Boxes selfies?! I'm negatively suprised that no one mentions this. Like, no one really want that back?!

Recently on Jumper's Discord server there was a small contest for the Valentines called "Valentine mission", where to get a 1 day of Premium we had to get exactly 14 kills with Isida and have Valentine-themed paint equipped (or to do 14 kills and change into Isida and sum valentine-themed paint and pray to not get caught hahah) and take screenshot of it and post it into specific channel. He claim that he sent "a total of 90 premium days". Huge W and respect for him for deciding to organize such "mission" and to sacrifise all of his YT TO points to send prizes for participants, moreover, he even had to "borrow" some points from Taspens to give the prize for several participants.  Of course there were complaints how it's so easy and such mission should be harder. So what? Many players decided to participate, even though for many, 90 participants might be seen as not much, but imagine if game itself organize it.

I'd guarantee if Tanki itself hold a contest similar to that (small prize for everyone who take part in it or a task to complete to participate in a draw with bigger prizes) hundreds or even thousands of players would take part in them and enjoy participating and playing TO a bit more. And that’s my point!  Well, if I have any ideas of contests to hold, yes, have sum ideas:

1. Team mine art contest

In a pair or group of max 3 players create mine artwork related to the event which is currently taken place (If in Valentine then something Valentine-themed, if it takes place in Christmas then something Christmas-related etc.) when having equipped event-themed paint (all participants have to have such paint equipped). TOP 5 best artworks get grand prizes, and rest of groups participate in draw, which picks like 10 winning groups. Example of prizes for each player in group:

1st place get like 100.000 crystals, 1200 Rubies and 100 Epic Keys,

2nd receive 80.000 crystals, 1000 Rubies and 80 Epic Keys,

3rd place get 60.000 crystals, 800 Rubies and 60 Epic Keys,

4th place - 40.000 crystals, 600 Rubies and 40 Epic Keys,

5th place - 30.000 crystals, 500 Rubies and 30 Epic Keys,

Prize from draw: 15.000 crystals and 200 Rubies + 15 Epic Keys

Of course prizes are debatable thing, but that above is just an example. It may be different. But something like that might be really interesting. Alternatively, there can be also an art contest for those who prefer to do it alone, without anybody's help with similar prizes.

2. "Gold Box Catch Of The *event name*"

In this contest to participate you need to record a video of you catching a Gold Box in a creative way and post it in a form which requires you to put your in-game name, link to the video uploaded on YT (Unlisted or Public). It can have a paint requirement or not, that is up to organizer. Here maybe like TOP 10 most creative video entries sent get grand prizes (Crystals and Epic Keys) and the rest of entries participate in a draw. Example:

1st place - 30.000 crystals, 30 Epic Keys

2nd place - 28.000 crystals, 28 Epic Keys

3rd place - 26.000 crystals, 26 Epic Keys

4th place - 23.000 crystals, 23 Epic Keys

5th place - 20.000 crystals, 20 Epic Keys

6th-10 place - 10.000 crystals, 10 Epic Keys

Prize from draw - 5.000 crystals and 5 Epic Keys

It doesn't have to be each new event (Lunar New Year, Valentines, Tanki Birthday, Halloween, Day Of The Dead etc.), it can be only for big events like for example Halloween or Christmas.

Something like this as new ideas of contests in the fututre. I’m pretty sure players gonna like it and many would like to participate in them. And please, spare me the comments that "AI work will win and ruin fun", I think there is software that detects the use of AI in work and if really Tanki Online can't afford it, then that's shameful and pure comedy.

@Marcus And what about giving us some other Augment or another Prize (Rubies, Epic Containers, Legendary Containers) instead of the Augments we already have in the Garage?

Because it makes no sense to participate in events were we get nothing in return for some prize levels!
