Tanki Online Increased Popularity?

[jego228 9]

So, some people say this game is dying, but from this time last year the website seems to be 5500th in the Alexa ranks compared to 3000th now. So unfounded accusations?

This is quite interesting; I invited some of my friends to this game lately.

Well, in Google Trends the search term "Tanki Online" is also doing quite well:

 

 

Although this isn't exactly a rocketing rise, it's still been pretty steady over the past year, and even that can be considered very successful since (as far as I know), Tanki's marketing was reduced a LOT until Tanki X is released, so the fact that there is still so much popularity is unexpected.

 

All the people with their "tanki is dying" cries are just seeing only what they want to see and not actual data :D

The ratings also give clues as to the amount of accounts regularly played on. On my main, I did not play until a day after ratings reset, and after getting like 10 xp and leaving a game, I was at about 650,000 for my xp rating. So that means atleast 650,000 accounts have been logged into, and played on in 1 day. Of course, people have alts, but thats still alot of accounts played on.

 

However, myspace is exactly 1k ranks above tankionline.com. And we all know how derelict myspace is

You think? Obviously for any search term, related terms such as this will follow the same graph pattern. What you didn't do is use Google Trends' comparison ability to see how popular each search term is compared to one another. And when you see the result the overall image suddenly becomes more clear:

 

 

 

 

 

 

I added World of Tanks in there too to compare the graphs and I find it interesting how the shape has been almost identical lately, which would suggest that the decline in players is caused not by "bad updates ruining the game", but because of other factors, such as more interesting games being released elsewhere.

It is probably possible for companies within this industry to skew the results of these trends, after all they are in the IT business.  Just as popular music trends number ones etc, are influenced by record companies buying their own records or selling in bulk to parasite companies.

Plz turnout turret. It makes people look noob when they don't. Espicially with low range turret such as Isida wich u always use.

[ELIZABETH1122 337]

I prefer not to turn my turret and I am unconcerned what people make of it.  That is entirely up to them.

The data i believe only shows registered players, not active players, however the game is getting a bit rusty that's why they're making a new version

It doesn't show any kind of players. It just shows the number of visits to the main page and all its domains, so that could even be just random people coming on the main page and leaving.

:O I seriously think this clashes with what the server load graph used to show. I mean, it used to keep dwindling and it was at an all-time low when it was removed. Perhaps it's due to all the unpredictable gold boxes, the 10x chances and the x5 funds the game keeps popping out every now and then.

 

Also, note that the graph's gone down since, say, mid-2015. 2015 was the times when you had 90% discounts on stuff.

 

I guess this just shows that people play this game because of discounts :P

Wow .. good to see Tanki's Popularity is increasing ...

The Truth!

[DanTheKiller1 2,889]

I think the fact that the Tanki official trailer has more views than csgo`s one makes this discussion even hotter

[iiHasTaPower 55]

It's true that tanki is decreasing of players day by day, but I like tanki more than WOT.
