51 00:02:57,520 --> 00:03:02,440 They haven’t been released yet, but we had an open testing this week. 52 00:03:02,440 --> 00:03:08,260 Check out some of the top Tanki YouTubers and hear what they had to say about it. 53 00:03:08,260 --> 00:03:12,040 These tests are important not just to nail any bugs, 54 00:03:12,040 --> 00:03:16,260 but also to set the initial balance of the mechanic. 55 00:03:16,260 --> 00:03:21,640 As a result of the test, we’ve already made several tweaks and improvements. 56 00:03:21,640 --> 00:03:23,020 Let’s have a look. 57 00:03:23,020 --> 00:03:24,200 But, once again: 58 00:03:24,200 --> 00:03:28,100 What you’re seeing is only on the test server. 59 00:03:28,100 --> 00:03:30,460 It is NOT in the game yet. 60 00:03:30,460 --> 00:03:32,200 Let's start with Titan. 61 00:03:32,200 --> 00:03:36,500 Its generator now projects a dome that it is visible from afar. 62 00:03:36,500 --> 00:03:41,140 It will also be color-coded - blue or red depending in the team, 63 00:03:41,140 --> 00:03:43,320 or gray in solo fights. 64 00:03:43,320 --> 00:03:47,900 Dictator’s ability, which is the overdrive we already have in the game, 65 00:03:47,900 --> 00:03:51,120 now has a noticeably larger active radius. 66 00:03:51,129 --> 00:03:56,919 It’s no longer necessary to be very close to the tank to get the repairs, 67 00:03:56,920 --> 00:04:00,300 full supplies set and mine activated. 68 00:04:00,300 --> 00:04:04,980 The most anticipated Overdrive, Viking, has also changed. 69 00:04:04,980 --> 00:04:10,219 If you remember, it originally increased the turret’s damage and firing rate. 70 00:04:10,219 --> 00:04:14,180 The active time of the ability has been decreased. 71 00:04:14,180 --> 00:04:18,310 However the overdrive now works with Alterations, 72 00:04:18,310 --> 00:04:22,260 provided they do NOT affect damage or firing rate. 73 00:04:22,260 --> 00:04:26,880 For example, combining Magnum’s Mortar and Viking’s overdrive 74 00:04:26,880 --> 00:04:31,320 makes it possible to mine a big area really fast. 75 00:04:31,320 --> 00:04:35,140 If the alteration DOES affect the damage or firing rate 76 00:04:35,140 --> 00:04:38,500 as in the case of Smokey’s Autocannon, for example 77 00:04:38,500 --> 00:04:45,000 the ability will function in the same way as it would with a regular overdriven turret. 78 00:04:45,000 --> 00:04:49,940 Mammoth’s overdrive still grants this beast invulnerability and death touch 79 00:04:49,940 --> 00:04:54,760 But now, the overdrive actually makes your mammoth go FASTER... 80 00:04:54,760 --> 00:04:56,630 and much more fun! 81 00:04:56,630 --> 00:04:57,980 Wasp’s Bomb. 82 00:04:57,980 --> 00:05:01,400 In previous iterations, it dealt a lot of damage, 83 00:05:01,400 --> 00:05:05,440 but it was possible to defend against it by using double armor 84 00:05:05,440 --> 00:05:09,820 or seeking protection underneath Titan’s overdrive dome. 85 00:05:09,820 --> 00:05:11,220 Not anymore. 86 00:05:11,220 --> 00:05:14,480 The bomb’s damage has been increased significantly, 87 00:05:14,480 --> 00:05:17,580 AND detonation time has been decreased. 88 00:05:17,580 --> 00:05:22,600 Now, if the enemy doesn’t react instantly… bye bye! 89 00:05:22,600 --> 00:05:24,840 From discussions about the recent test, 90 00:05:24,840 --> 00:05:26,820 we’ve noticed that our reviewers 91 00:05:26,820 --> 00:05:31,180 missed some of the important functions of certain overdrives. 92 00:05:31,180 --> 00:05:33,280 One example is Hunter. 93 00:05:33,280 --> 00:05:37,940 Most of our reviewers thought that it just turns off supplies. 94 00:05:37,940 --> 00:05:43,360 But in reality, Hunter will be a big headache to other hulls using overdrives. 95 00:05:43,360 --> 00:05:48,600 It neutralizes Titan's generator, defuses Wasp’s bomb, 96 00:05:48,600 --> 00:05:53,700 stuns the mad Mammoth and jams Viking’s increased firing rate. 97 00:05:53,700 --> 00:05:58,680 This brings the effectiveness of these abilities down to a minimum. 98 00:05:58,680 --> 00:06:03,400 Titan's dome is an excellent remedy against a quick-firing Viking. 99 00:06:03,400 --> 00:06:08,960 Find protection under the dome, take minimal damage and destroy your attacker. 100 00:06:08,960 --> 00:06:15,280 As for Hornet, it gives the whole team a radar and the ability to see the enemy’s hitpoints. 101 00:06:15,280 --> 00:06:21,260 These are both handy skills, but Hornet’s overdrive gives you an even bigger advantage. 102 00:06:21,260 --> 00:06:26,740 When active, it completely ignores the enemy’s protection modules, 103 00:06:26,750 --> 00:06:30,300 double armor, and even Titan's dome. 104 00:06:30,300 --> 00:06:32,640 The enemy takes FULL damage. 105 00:06:32,640 --> 00:06:34,480 No escaping it! 106 00:06:34,480 --> 00:06:36,640 One final point for today. 107 00:06:36,640 --> 00:06:43,240 Remember that the primary tactical difference between overdrives is their recharge time. 108 00:06:43,240 --> 00:06:45,400 Some will recharge faster. 109 00:06:45,400 --> 00:06:48,860 Others, such as Viking, will recharge slower. 110 00:06:48,860 --> 00:06:51,740 The release is just around the corner now!
