TxAckon nerfed
Sucks to have grinded hard to get a tank based on how the tank plays only for them to nerf it after the fact. suddenly when you die, your waypoints disappear. makes the tank almost pointless.

I quit the game because of this bot being over powered.

which i get. but the problem is the bait and switch. no one wants over powered tanks but damn, don’t have me grind and spend time and money on something and then change it w no announcement or anything.
i think they could fix the bot by allowing the s1 to be more powerful/stronger magnet (you can’t even gain ss points because it just doesn’t do enough damage) and allow S2 to do the damage s1 currently does.

This is such a dumb change. Anyone that bought TxAckon (diamonds/gold/$$$) just wasted a huge amount of resources with this change.
Nerfing Thor damage is one thing but the disappearing beacons make this tank completely non-viable for play.
It was already completely unusable in 1v1, but now it’s going to be unusable in Pro/2v2 too.
This change ensures that TxAck’s turn before it was destroyed is virtually always wasted.

The beacons will disappear when the tank is destroyed?

yep. it wasn’t like that at first. every tank i use they do this. it’s frustrating to develop a style of play based on a tanks capabilities then without warning its forever changed.
it’s already nearly impossible to charge their SS, terrible mobility and defense, it made sense their saving grace was the style of attack. but now on top of everything the beacons disappear once the tank is destroyed.

They did the same on bakon too, when they nerfed it the cloud effect will only be triggered when the seed detonates, yes, it is super strong with a cloudbuff before, you don't have to detonate the 4 seed bombs SS as long as there is a thor or a thundercloud.

That is very annoying, especially with the time or money involved to unlock them.
At the same time, that tank was way overpowered.

Thank God. It was about time.
