I'm here to make a feedback on this year April Fools special modes. Here they are! Positives 1. Longest April Fools with super golds ever yet 2. Good amount of modes and selection of maps 3. All fun activities in the mode for example Super Golds. Negatives 1. Some certain maps for example Noise had too much players in it. Amount of players in some maps is a problem for long time and it makes the maps unplayable most of the time because of chaos. Decreasing number of players in the battle always makes it more fun but also more enjoyable. 2. Talking about chaos people with bad augments or equipment have no chance to fight against people who have fully upgraded combos. 3. 90% of all super golds are taken by hoppers. Simply its because of overdrives turned on. I would also want to say that if players decide to play hopper and join them they still may struggle because they got no lifeguard on hopper. This is a big problem of the modes. 4. Salyut grenades are not preventing hopper to catch a gold box. I say this was a cool idea but when hopper can use the salyut grenade on another hopper and then jump for it anyway its kinda useless and most of the people will agree that it have just become another killing tool and not killing tool for hoppers (I personally using it just for kills to load overdrive or defend myself). Still when thrown it doesn't work all the time and it has a really low success because of a lifeguard or the hopper already took the gold box. Solution - the grenade must make multiple explosions in the air or have much bigger range and impact on the tank. 5. Nuclear energies also not helping the event. Simply just everyone nuking during April Fools event and that means even more jumping hoppers. Not fun. 6. Multiple hoppers teaming in the battle. Its just simply worth to be teaming and jumping for the golds. With more people you will clear the way the super golds and catch them fast since they are dropping instantly. Solution? I have no idea. At least turn off groups and turning off overdrives would also help a little. 7. Overdrives. If hoppers would be removed there will always be something that is gonna replace that for example hunter overdrive. So its really the best option to just turn off the overdrives in some modes to make people happy (not all of them). 8. Hoppers. Its overdrive is op for events like April Fools. I have came with an idea how to eliminate them from this event. First. Add everything into the super gold. 1000 crystals. Common key and even 10 rubies why not. Since 1000 crystals and keys are dropping really often in the mode. Not only you will get it most of the time but it would be sometimes extremely ineffective for hoppers that they would change on dictator for example (Still better dictator instead of hopper instantly catching a super gold). It would be also enjoyable to see more super golds dropping and make the randomizer even better. Second. Turn off overdrives. 9. Rank difference. Now there will have to be some MM changes. I don't even know how is possible but legend rank playing with major ranks is a big difference in ranks and equipment. It basically sometimes joins the the legend rank into small rank lobby and I think this should not be possible. It is a problem for a long time aswell and not only april fools modes. Need some changes in MM system. The end of feedback message for our Developers At the end of this feedback I would like to say that it would be cool if the last mode of april fools would be replaced by a new mode with all of the maps from the recent april fools modes and simply turn off the overdrives in it and bring back the Super Golds for 4 more day. Big part of the community was requesting this change and I think it would be really cool to do something like this as a Tanki Community. In my opinion April Fools in tanki is a really big event and it deserves more then 3 modes with pretty much just different maps. We need more options for all people. Last year one of the modes also changed. And it would be sad to wait another year to just enjoy fun in the game. There's still time to change and I believe there is a posibility it will happen. Created and Inspired by Tanki Community Video from tanki youtuber Jumper to see how it looks in the event mode.

Alright Im here to make a feedback again that I've collected. Im mainly gonna talk about the current ongoing mode. There is just ONE very big problem. To be more specific its the one map that is ruining the whole mode WHOLE/EVERY DAY. Yes the Yorkshire Halloween 2019 map. Im not scare to say that 80% of time I click on the event play button I join into that map and I know others have the same issue. The worst time with this map are probably hours before the server restart (like 4 hours straight before server restart there's literally no chance to join other map then Yorkshire Halloween 2019 map) obviously the problem is the amount of players in the map. Either its 36 or 40 on the map its a chaos and it destroying the whole Event MM. It is reasonable when I say people are sick of this map. What the community wants to change during this event? Maps problem Drastically decrease number of players (to like 20 or 16 players) on the Yorkshire Halloween 2019 map or removal of the map from the mode also helps ---) make it specially locked for Zombie Mode only (I still love to remind that in Halloween 2019 event when the Yorkshire Halloween map appeard for the first time the maximum of players per map was around 16-10 players). This is not the only map with problems that needs to change though. The Halloween 2018 map (with the ramps) decrease of players is also really necessary from 20 to 16 like on Halloween 2015 map. Reason is the Chaos. These maps are really similar to size and I never properly understood why is there difference in terms of players. Why 16 players? I've tried multiple times playing on Halloween 2015 map it felt really balanced multiple times in a row and nobody has a problem this map. Now the uncessary but useful changes to the small maps. The Sandal,Sandbox and Highland maps. These maps are really small and they feel kind of balanced and really fun though change would make them even better decreasing the amount of players from 12 to 10. They can feel really chaotic sometimes especially on Halloween Highland map since the map is the smallest out of them all. Mode setting problem Necessary change - grenades in this mode also became a big problem and its not good for a Gold Box event mode. Every single time there is a gold dropping atleast one or two grenades are thrown under the drop zone. Though this is a cool experiment I know a lot of people are complaining just because upgrades are on and the grenades doing so much damage. At this point I know the community would welcome disabling grenades off the mode. Other stuff community wants. The return of the old Lollipop skin box for a minigame or new skin (same applies for all the other minigames that own some type of Energy Boxes like Energy,Gingerbread or Shamrock) The return of Halloween maps into probattles during Halloween Events. Some kind of better Special Missions just for Halloween Exclusive - like do a Million Damage with turrets in the Halloween mode. Better rewards from missions exclusive for halloween like Pumpkin Grenades or new Halloween paints. Some Demonic Skin in the Elite pass instead of Skin Key. Doing this for a community with a hope to change the game for better believing Hazel will read this and make change for us. I apologize for any mistakes in the text. Your Tanki Community

Welcome back for our exciting showing of our new parkour montage! We are back , delivering the storm you all desire the most. We want to also say a huge THANK YOU to all those who participated up to this point and continuing! Could not of done it without each one of you, but without further ado... Hope you enjoy this montage my fellow parkourists ? As well give us feedback!

Dear Developers, I want to talk about the current punishment system in Tanki Online, especially the permanent bans for cheating and account sharing. Right now, once an account is blocked, it’s forever, but that feels unfair in a lot of cases. For example, some players move from one country to another, log in from a new place, and instantly get flagged for account sharing. They explain what happened, but nobody believes them, and their account is gone for good. Others might make a mistake one time, regret it, and they never get the chance to return. Other games already changed how they handle this. Fortnite announced that starting in April 2025, if someone cheats for the first time they only get a one-year ban. A second offense is when they make it permanent. They’re even reviewing old lifetime bans that have lasted more than a year. League of Legends usually gives 14 or 30 day bans and only makes it permanent if the player keeps repeating the same behavior. World of Warcraft often gives suspensions for months or even a year, with lifetime bans kept only for the worst repeat cases. Overwatch does something similar with seasonal or timed bans. Even CS:GO’s VAC bans are permanent but only stop you from joining VAC-protected servers, you can still use other parts of the game. The common point is that modern games give players a chance to learn from their mistakes instead of removing them forever after one issue. That’s why I think Tanki should also move to a time-based system. Something like one year for the first offense, two or three years for the second, and only then a lifetime ban if the player still keeps breaking rules. This would be more fair and would also help players who made an honest mistake, like logging in from a new country. Tanki has been around for a long time and people have put years of effort and money into their accounts. Losing all of that over one mistake feels too harsh. A system that gives people another chance would keep the game strong and keep players loyal. If Epic Games can modernize their system, I believe Tanki Online can too.

I started the game way back in 2011, off the playground recommendation of a school friend of mine - who has of course long since quit the game. I played for long enough to unlock Shaft at the mighty rank of WO4, and then quit because my Intel Celeron laptop could no longer handle the game. I popped in briefly over the years, watching Starladder and playing very occasionally, before a proper return in 2016. I joined my clan Happy Dragons in October 2016, and had a very happy/spammy few years with them, contributing to the third largest topic on the forum before getting our clan topic locked by SuperNick for being too active… Much love to the crest, it was an honour working under and alongside you, and thanks for the recs for my helper apps haha. As you can tell, I will probably mention a few names, apologies if you feel missed out, I’m writing this in one unhinged bout of word vomit and if I’ve forgotten you I swear it was unintentional - but I guess unhinged word vomit is unsurprising given my first ever position - Newspaper reporter. TTC wins and organising the AWC Tournament gave me the chance to join under the watchful eyes of Flex & Viksrall, alongside true legends of the forum like yis and twee, and I took the AWC under my wing, giving budding young writers a fresh place to start, fostering many people who would later become my colleagues. About a month later, I joined as a discord mod, back when it was still an unofficial position, spearheaded by Torben, Hex, Nives, and Optic (the unsung hero). - but more on that later. In 2019, I joined the eSports News team by accident - I thought I was just helping out with some proofreading, and then out of the blue Marcus announced that I had passed my candidacy (and immediately before he announced it I guessed the announcement was for someone else entirely!). I met so many amazing people there too; I created the public side of the server, ran the short-lived esports news show, and wrote/proofread hundreds of articles. I briefly tried out for Commentator, and somewhere out there is a 1v1 between Greg and someone else that Esmail & I commentated from back in 2019/20. I was one of the founding members of the proofreaders team, I sent the first message in the channel on 30/04/2020 - didn’t realise even that had been almost 5 years… There’s a very high chance that if you’re reading something in the game, I’ve contributed to it, especially the Katakana paint, which was originally planned to be called Hieroglyphics before it made it through me and that amazing team. I’ve been SM admin since Jan 2020, and have been honoured to take the mantle of the server over that time. So many people I’ve seen come and go, and I hope that you’ve all made friends or at least enjoyed your time under my tyrannical rule - but see #discord-news in the server for a proper goodbye there. Perhaps my favourite time of all was the year or so that I was an Event Helper. I loved every member of that team so much, and I will always remember all the calls we had, yapping constantly with each other, while knowing that we were bringing so much joy to the community as well. I worked my way up to admin, and even briefly ran the team solo, and fighting for my life in STG or Save the Princess (and later the joys of sitting in spec watching my colleagues struggling to do the same) was easily the peak of my long career. In what I’ve now been told is the sunset of my career, I’ve spent 18 months as a wiki editor, contributing my TTC-winning game knowledge to hit 469 edits, and leading the GT team - for which my greatest contribution was allowing Sabry to flourish to his full potential.

After this weekend, I have to say thank you. Thank you to everyone who purchased early access to Klassika. On the very first day, we reached the level of support needed to lift the restrictions on the project’s development. Yes, there were likes, views, discussions, and interest — but in the end, it all came down to money. That’s what determined whether the project would live or die. For the first time in my 12 years of work, I’ve seen players collectively ignore the cheapest offer. The number of players we have now isn’t just enough for a closed test — it’s enough for a large-scale closed test. After all these years, our dream of bringing back those very tanks has never felt more real.

Happy new years! Enjoyz~

Tankers! As the year comes to a close, it's a perfect time to reflect on all that we've achieved, experienced, and learned over the year . It's a moment to celebrate our successes and, of course, an opportunity to look ahead and make plans for the exciting year to come! One of the highlights of this time of year is the "Helper of the Year" award, which has become a cherished tradition within our community. Each year, our Helpers eagerly anticipate the moment when we announce the list, so without further ado, let's have a look at the Best Helpers of the Year! Helper of the Decade! Before going into the nominations for this year’s Best Helpers, we would like to share a message of gratitude for a specific member for reaching a very impressive milestone of 10 consecutive helpers of the year titles! rommeltanki — a name you would have seen in nearly every Helper of the Year topic for over a decade. There are no words sufficient to describe the sheer amount of value he has brought to the community, nor is there anything we could offer in return for his countless contributions. The achievements he has accumulated over the years are nearly impossible for anyone to recreate. He has not only created a name for himself, but has also become a symbol of the Helper team, even within his first few years with us. We truly cannot thank you enough for the trust, patience, and time you have devoted to helping the community, all while making the chat a safer place for players. We wish you a Happy New Year! The Administration! Administrators begin their journey as candidates with a genuine desire to help the game and community grow. Day after day, week after week, and month after month, they dedicate countless hours and energy, consistently striving to improve the experience for everyone. While it’s easy for players to assume that "Admins have it easy" or that they get whatever they want, the reality is far from that! Administrators are responsible for many different tasks. They handle numerous tasks that often go unseen and require a great deal of time and effort. On top of that, managing their respective helper groups demands not just leadership skills but also a deep understanding of human emotions and the ability to navigate complex situations with empathy. The truth is, the work of an Administrator is demanding and challenging, but it is also incredibly rewarding. We truly don’t have enough words to express our gratitude for the dedication and commitment you all bring. Your efforts make this community stronger, more enjoyable, and more vibrant. We’re deeply appreciative of everything you do, and we look forward to seeing you continue to thrive and contribute for many more years to come. Thank you for being such a crucial part of our game’s success! Marcus - The Community Manager is meant to be the bridge between the Developers and the players, but Marcus is so much more than that. Day after day, he goes above and beyond to make the community a better place — whether it’s by creating and improving the TankiSports website, maintaining the recruitment platform, developing new tools that help Helpers work more effectively, or simply being there as a listening ear for anyone who needs guidance or support. Much of what a Community Manager does happens behind the scenes and can easily go unnoticed, but it never goes unappreciated. We are truly thankful for your dedication, your care, and your constant efforts. The community is stronger because of you, Marcus. Spy - Anticipating and completing tasks before they're even asked for – that defines Spy perfectly. He is always eager to assist every day, helping all members of the community: the community manager, administrators, and players alike. No challenge is too great; he consistently finds solutions. Whenever and wherever help is required, Spy delves into the matter and provides support. He excels in his role as Head Admin, leading the team of forum moderators to maintain a pleasant, peaceful, and comfortable atmosphere on the forums. Every helper knows they can always rely on Spy for top-notch assistance. His unwavering dedication sets a gold standard for teamwork, and his positive attitude is infectious, inspiring others to contribute their best. Spy isn't just a problem-solver; he is a cornerstone of the community's spirit and efficiency. Beyond mere duty, he contributes with a genuine passion that strengthens the bonds within our team. His initiative and foresight prevent issues from arising, making the entire community run smoother. It is this exceptional proactive service and steadfast leadership. Mosad - Mosad has been a Helper for many years and joined the ranks of Head Admins over two years ago. Throughout this time, he has proven time and again that he is more than deserving of this position. He possesses excellent judgment and is able to set his emotions aside when making fair and well-thought-out decisions. Having Mosad on the team is always a blessing. He carries out his role flawlessly while also being a genuinely enjoyable person to work with — never too serious, yet always fully aware of what needs to be done. We truly hope to have you with us for many more years to come! Stealth- The Tanki Wiki serves as a central place for players to gather information about the game, and there is one person who ensures that the English Wiki team keeps it accurate and up to date — that person is Stealth! Stealth is a true professional who consistently strives to perform his duties to the highest standard. He joined the ranks of Helpers after the sudden closure of Tanki X, driven by a single goal: to support the English community using the skills he acquired as a Helper and Admin in Tanki X. Last year, Stealth also joined the ranks of Head Admins — a position he truly and fully deserves. Thank you for your dedication and hard work, Stealth! Jack- Jack returned to the game toward the end of 2020 — quite late by Tanki Online standards — but he came back with big ambitions and the determination to achieve them all. From proving his skills as a Helper and Admin, to competing in eSports, and even learning design to create stunning artworks for the game, Jack has consistently shown passion and dedication in everything he does. As a Chat Administrator, Jack ensures that the Chat Moderators team runs smoothly and that every violation is handled fairly and professionally. On top of that, he also manages the Broadcasting Team, making sure the English Community can enjoy eSports matches — no small task by any means. Anyone who has had the chance to work with or meet Jack knows what an incredible person he is. Thank you for everything you do, Jack! Yele- Anyone who has been playing the game long enough knows exactly who she is. To some, she may seem like the mighty Battle Admin, but everyone who has worked alongside her knows that her work ethic is truly out of this world. Day and night, Yele handles game violations, responds to players on a daily basis, and does everything in her power to keep the game fair and free from violators. Yele has been here for so many years, and there simply aren’t enough words to fully express our appreciation for her dedication and commitment. Thank you for everything you do! Vlad- As always, the face of the eSports community. Vlad does an outstanding job organizing and maintaining eSports tournaments, always making sure all participants follow the rules to ensure fair and enjoyable sportsmanship. We appreciate him for all his contributions to the eSports community. Elegante- We express our sincere gratitude for your excellent work and invaluable contribution to the development of esports. Elegante's professionalism, responsibility, and organizational skills make our team and tournaments more effective and enjoyable for all participants. Thanks to him, we can focus on achieving new victories and creating memorable moments. Elegante is a vital part of our team, and his dedication does not go unnoticed. We wish him continued success and new achievements! Dynasty - If you’ve been involved in the Parkour scene, Tanki’s Discord server, or the Forum, you’ve surely heard the name! Dynasty wears many hats. He leads the Social Media Team, demonstrating excellent management skills, and alongside Nat, ensures the Official Discord Server runs smoothly. But that’s not all — Dynasty is also the Parkour Clubs Manager, keeping rules in check and providing clubs with the support they need. On top of that, he serves as a Forum Moderator, keeping a watchful eye on the Forum day and night. Thank you for everything, Dynasty! natrolite - Nat is truly a man of the community. Everyone in the official Tanki Online Discord server knows him and loves him. He first became a Social Media Admin in 2021, and although he sadly stepped away in 2022, we were absolutely thrilled to welcome him back to our ranks this year. In addition to serving the community as a Discord Admin, Nat is also a Chat Moderator, helping players across multiple platforms. Thank you, Nat — it’s truly great to have you with us again! Lennard - Lennard has the important responsibility of bringing our V-LOGs to viewers in their preferred language, ensuring that everyone in the community is able to understand the latest news and developments of the game. As always, we would like to extend our deepest gratitude for the work he does in managing the team responsible for keeping the V-LOGs translated. NikmanGT - Being around Nikman is quite something. On one hand, he’s a funny guy who never misses an opportunity to crack a joke; on the other, he’s one of the most hardworking Helpers and Admins we have the honor of having in our community. NikmanGT serves as our proofreader Admin, making sure that all announcements are well written and free of mistakes. He is also one of the oldest and most experienced Forum Moderators, consistently guiding other moderators while doing an outstanding job keeping the Forum in order. On top of that, he joined the Game Translation team and has provided an insane work, translating a good part of the game into Hindi along with his colleagues, his work and experience deserved him to become a team leader in that position! We truly appreciate you and all the work you put in, and we hope you stay with us for many years to come! Sabry - When thinking of the word “passion,” Sabry is the first person who comes to mind. He channels his passion for coding into leading and supporting the largest team of Helpers: the Game Translators. With such a significant responsibility, there truly couldn’t be a better person for the role. Sabry has consistently demonstrated an outstanding ability to perform at an exceptional level, often exceeding all expectations we had. His dedication, skill, and commitment make a real difference every single day! Ghost - His nickname fits him perfectly, as he manages our Rent a Spec service from behind the scenes. He ensures that players receive high-quality footage of their greatest moments in the game, supports smaller content creators, and helps those who cannot record the game at full graphics. Ghost does all of this quietly, working unseen like his namesake, yet everyone who has collaborated with him knows the enormous impact he has. Thank you for everything, Ghost! Mr_STIFFLER - He has an extremely important role to lead the team that test the games updates before they are released. Always squashing bugs left and right to make sure our players have a fun and smooth experience when playing the game. Thank you for your dedication and hard work keeping the game bug free. fjrenke - Every single eSports player recognizes his voice, as he is one of our greatest commentators! He joined the Broadcasting Team a long time ago and, when the team needed him most, he was there not only to help but to keep it alive alongside Jack. Being a commentator and broadcaster is no easy task, yet fjrenke rises to the challenge every single day. Thank you, fjrenke — English eSports broadcasts wouldn’t be possible without you! The Helpers of the Year! Super_Nickson - He is the lead moderator on the eSports Discord server, ensuring order and comfort for our eSports community members. He is responsible for enforcing the rules, resolving conflicts, and maintaining a positive atmosphere. He helps newcomers get acclimated, answers questions, and organizes the work of his respective department. His job requires patience, attentiveness, and the ability to find common ground with a variety of people. Thanks to our moderators, Discord servers have become a place where players can communicate, share experiences, and enjoy the game in a safe and friendly environment. Seraphina - If we had to choose one word to describe her, talent would be the perfect fit. Seraphina is an incredibly gifted artist who uses her skills and design expertise to support the community in countless ways. All the stunning thumbnails and visuals you see in eSports are created by her and her team. She not only creates outstanding work herself, but also ensures that her team of designers meets her exceptionally high standards. On top of that, Seraphina is the Admin of the Creative League — a group of talented tankers who transform Tanki images into true works of art, turning imagination into creativity. Thank you, Sera, for your hard work, passion, and dedication! Future - Future, the leader of the video department, plays a key role in creating engaging and professional content. He is responsible for collecting and processing video footage, editing fragments, adding graphic elements, and commentary. His work requires attention to detail, skill with video editing tools, and an understanding of the game's specifics. Thanks to his efforts, viewers get the opportunity to enjoy dynamic and spectacular moments, and esports events become even more engaging and accessible to a wider audience. Hans - Hans, aka Stefano, has proven himself to be an exceptionally reliable and dedicated member of the Proofreaders team ever since he joined. An absolute force, his activity level speaks for itself, backed by an impressive and well-earned 12/12 HOTM nominations, a clear reflection of his consistency and commitment throughout the year. There is hardly any text or announcement in the community these days that hasn’t been proofread by him. Beyond his strong work ethic and attention to detail, Hans brings a friendly and humorous presence to those around him, making collaboration both efficient and enjoyable. In Social Media, he wasted no time integrating into the community and becoming a pillar of the moderation team. The awe-inspiring dedication and effort you invest into the team left no second thoughts in our decision to acknowledge your contributions with this award nomination. We are truly grateful for the effort and positivity you bring to the community, and we congratulate you on your first well-deserved recognition as one of the Best Helpers of 2025. Bartson74 - Bartson74 has been one of the most prominent and efficient RU > EN Translators throughout the year, known for his ability to deliver accurate and high-quality translations promptly and well within demanding deadlines. His utmost professionalism ensures that important content is always handled with care and precision, making him a trusted and valued member of the team. In addition to his translation expertise, Bartson74’s excellent sense of humour fosters positivity and boosts morale for those working alongside him. Whether it’s being the star of photoshoots or the first to readily handle any task, his dedication and responsiveness have made a meaningful impact throughout the year. We would like to extend our sincere thanks and congratulations for your outstanding contributions by awarding you the prestigious Helper of the Year title for the second consecutive year. Dumbledore6969 - Dumbledore was originally a Helper and an Admin in the Polish community. Following the closure of the Polish community, he was welcomed into our community with open arms. Since then, Dumbledore has consistently proven that, despite the unfortunate turn of events, he is a hardworking individual with strong morals and a huge heart. Dumbledore is a veteran Helper within the Game Translation team. He has been part of the team ever since the Polish language was introduced, and his loyalty has never been in question. Through his continuous work, he earned a well-deserved promotion to Polish Team Leader. His attention to detail in translations is what makes him a high-quality translator. Beyond his role as an in-game Helper, Dumbledore saves lives in the real world on a daily basis — a truly remarkable person. Thank you for everything you do! chinufire - Chinu is the closest we have to a perfect Helper, and we simply would not have a list like this without his name on it. He is always there, always helpful, and always knows what to do. One wouldn’t go far in saying he is the “older brother” of our Social Media moderators. From his days in the Events team years ago, we knew this person was destined to become one of the most reliable and respectable assets any team could hope to have. There is not a shadow of a doubt that Chinu was going to receive this award, given all his contributions to the team and his perseverance during challenging times, making this one of the easiest nominations on the list. We extend our personal gratitude to you and sincerely thank you for all that you do, Chinu but-1. Mr.Skiil - Once again, Mr. Skiil has proven his ability to stand out as a Helper. Having been recognized multiple times as Helper of the Month, these achievements — among several other factors — have played a key role in him earning this title once again this year, alongside many other dedicated Helpers. In addition to being a YouTuber and a prominent figure in eSports, he is an exceptional Helper. He is consistently the first to step up and take on demanding tasks within his position, regardless of the responsibilities and commitments present in his personal life. His actions continually uphold his reputation, as he frequently completes the majority of requests, demonstrating both his dedication and respect for the role he holds. We sincerely appreciate his hard work throughout the year and congratulate him on being named one of this year’s nominees. Edu_Gamer - He is one of the greatest additions to the Game Translators team; his work is immeasurable, and he is always present for his team as a Portuguese Team Leader. With Edu_Gamer on your team, you can be sure that everything will be handled in good hands. Additionally, he has translated all V-LOGs into Portuguese, ensuring that Portuguese-speaking players stay fully informed. Edu_Gamer has also shown an uncanny ability to step into multiple roles simultaneously within Tanki. As a member of the Chat Moderators team, he is able to handle many of these tasks without any issue. He can manage multiple responsibilities, supporting candidates while mentoring them and handling his own reports. Edu is undoubtedly a cornerstone of the Social Media team as well — if we were to create a guide for a “Social Media Moderator,” it would likely be based on how he conducts himself and his work ethic. A mentor, a friend, a moderator, and a curator of a safe and vibrant community — there is simply little more one could ask for. Thank you, Edu_Gamer, for everything; you truly deserve this nomination! Helax - Once again, Helax has demonstrated outstanding dedication within the Rent-a-Spec team. The passion and care he brings to each request are nothing short of professional and welcoming. His strong work ethic, exceptional responsiveness, and ability to take full ownership of his responsibilities are truly inspiring. Having him on the team makes a tremendous difference, and we are incredibly grateful to see him nominated alongside his peers. Ever since he joined the Game Translators team, Helax has played a key role, translating more than half of the game into Czech. His consistent hard work and commitment led to a well-deserved promotion to Team Leader, and we are confident that he has the shoulders to handle the responsibilities that come with the role. Thank you for the kindness, effort, and dedication you have shown throughout the year. This token of appreciation recognizes the tireless commitment you have demonstrated in maintaining your status as Helper of the Year for a second consecutive year. Congratulations, Helax, and thank you! Positive - Like his name suggests, Positive brings a lot of good vibes to the Forum Moderators team! He has extensive knowledge of the game, which proves extremely valuable when moderating. Positive joined the Forum Moderators team at the beginning of the year, and throughout this time, he has proven that he is more than worthy of the position. Words cannot fully express how thankful we are for your dedication and positive impact on the team. Thank you for everything you do! Scientist - Yet again, Scientist has proven that his commitment and tireless attitude know no bounds. This former Administrator has demonstrated outstanding dedication as both a Proofreader and a highly skilled RU > EN Translator, which serves as yet another testament to his multitasking personality. His consistent delivery of high-quality proofreads and translations is matched by his genuine enthusiasm for contributing to the community whenever help is needed. Known for his sharp sense of humour and his hateful agony of GIFs, this medical genius brings a touch of perfection to every duty he performs, making even demanding tasks a pleasure to work on. His readiness to step in, combined with his professionalism and passion for community improvement, forges him into an invaluable asset. We sincerely thank you Scientist for your continued efforts and look forward to seeing you once again among the prestigious nominees for the Helper of the Year title. Squirrellover - Squirrellover is one of the most dependable and hard-working members of the Proofreaders team, consistently producing polished game announcements and V-LOGs with a keen eye for detail and rapt enthusiasm. His viewpoint on proofreading reflects a strong sense of responsibility, ensuring that every piece of content meets the highest standards of clarity, accuracy, and professionalism before reaching the community. Whether refining complex announcements or reviewing time-sensitive materials, squirrellover approaches each task with focus, precision, and a commitment to excellence that can be relied upon at all times. We sincerely appreciate the time and energy you have devoted to this role and are pleased to congratulate you on earning the title of one of the Best Helpers of 2025.

Good morning, I wanted to write this post. In 2012, at the age of 9, I started playing because of my father. I loved the game. Every day I would come home from school to play with him after work for at least a couple of hours, for 5 years. Then, unfortunately, my father passed away, and I stopped playing. Playing no longer made sense to me. I found great peace with this game. Today, 7 years later, I started playing again. Today, I find many emotions. I play and I return to that place, to when I was 9 years old. Even though my father was a quiet and perhaps distant person, that moment was a moment of connection. Today my daughter is named Olivia, after the olive tree, because of the peace she brings me. Olivia is one year old, and in the future, I will play with her as my father did with me. This post is for all of us who have lost a loved one along the way. I want to thank you for keeping the community alive after so many years. P.S. My father wasn't a camper, haha, he loved the Firebird, I continue with that tradition. VaVyLoN

And then I suppose I have to ping a few people, but I'll leave it to the comments to keep the post clear To the amazing Newspaper team To eSports All the amazing Event Helpers, organisers (Poot @Pout, jutska @jutska, emra @emrakul, @Legendarni, as well as annoyingly named @chinufire & @chinufire1 - and most of all nat, my beautiful co admin @natrolite Obviously all of the many people who have in the SM team, far too many of you to @ all of you but NB to luci, sabry, hugo, niko, Edu, Zack (sorry it went down how it did man), and aqw, as well as all the Elves and everyone else. I will also be hosting my final rankup / community photoshoot this Friday, 14th March at 18:00 UTC - all welcome, tho priority will go to friends I'm afraid.

Crisis and Armadillo again? These have been in tanki funds for last 3 years. To the point majority of players buying the fund will already have both of these. It's fair to keep them there for new players who don't own them, but at least give compensation to players who already have this. Otherwise every tanki fund will have 2 wasted tiers that most players don't benefit from. At least give 50k - 100k crystals, or 100 rubies or even 1k supplies. Just something so that it doesn't feel like a waste.

Hello fellow parkourists! Welcome back for our exciting showing of our new parkour montage! We have had a bit of a identity crisis and found our old selves again to give you the quality you deserve. Creative, New, Fresh, Big ideas all brought together to create perfection at it's finest.. Along this journey of years many members have come and gone and new potential arises and we try to take advantage of that and give people the opportunity they could not get else where to make names for themselves. One of these names was MR.S_H_K_S_B_E_R he was there since our first video! Along this way a very dear member to our club's heart unfortunately passed away a few years back and felt that it was wrong to not honor his name and show appreciation for getting to know him along this journey. We miss you buddy

This sounds like people are going to do all the work and get 0 score for it, because someone waited barely any time and just stole everything.

i think someone forgot to nerf something. no idea what it could be ?

2 months of waiting for some decent patch notes and this is all we got , looks like lack of balance will be real reason why players will leave this game for good. Where is promised change of hover hulls physics? Its been already like 5 months since you have announced that in a vlog. Where is promised supplies/drones change you have promised in the end of 2024/early in 2025 Long range meta highly favoured by devs, devs ignoring camping issue in game and all the reasonabe balance of long range turrets Inconsistency with the balance of Healing in game Freeze effect being overkill with the ability to disable double dmg Juggernaut is absolute weakling constantly killed by first viking OD/ tornado salvo no reason or fun to play it Sorry for another yapping from my side but from normal player perspective this game has become boring and repetitive, last year was not fun at all, perhaps we got one or two unique events, rest of those were just repetitive events with the worse rewards than previous years, completely lack of balance and no sight of new ideas, I actually do care about game and I would like to see it in a good healthy state but this seem to be far from truth, especially with the less and less frequent patch notes that does not change anything for the sake of real balance. Its either time to take things seriously or pack things up and end it here

It took me 1500 keys to get first legendary augment on a fresh account. I don't like how it works. The point was to create an adequate progression for a new player, not a paygate. I'll keep the logic, but I'll change it so only one rare augment required, not the whole rare augments drop table.

Did Hazel not say we were getting a night time version of the Chrismtas HD map last year? The day time version of the new year HD map is so lifeless. Can Tanki at least add the old night time Christmas maps? Not having any night time map with fun lighting makes it feel like any other event. Where is the Christmas/New Years cheer?

Dear Tankers! The most wonderful time of the year is just around the corner! The air is filled with holiday magic, homes are glowing with festive lights, and the season brings that special feeling of warmth and joy. The Tanki Online team would like to warmly congratulate you on the upcoming holidays — Christmas and the New Year! This year has been bright and full of action: exciting events, major updates, intense battles, and countless memorable moments. You became an essential part of everything that happened, and we kept working hard to make the game even better for you. A new year means new goals, new victories, and new opportunities. Together, we’re ready to reach new heights! May 2026 bring you inspiration, joyful discoveries, cozy moments with loved ones, and lots of reasons to smile. We wish you health, happiness, good luck, and success both in the game and in real life! Merry Christmas and Happy New Year!

Something big is coming...

I think I downloaded the wrong game

Ah yeah, no balance changes, because what would those be needed for..

WINNERS https://docs.google.com/spreadsheets/d/e/2PACX-1vRJrbxAsv1FF7d-F0CElatVBhSeiCYpN0IymRCXRcC28xsOzbSz1fY4CBJxzRVMdUuTLIEdLnJdTZQy/pubhtml?gid=0&single=true https://tankionline.com/en/?p=50757

In the vlog 379, at 4:51 until 4:58, Hazel clearly says ''No, these augments will not be sold. Never!'' but what happens today is that the old pheonix are clearly being sold, starting off with the striker augment ''Missile launcher «Brass Knuckles». Why did you break your promise and why even nerfing the phoenix augment from the start and making them now almost the same as having no augments enabled with minor random buff? How is it going to motivate the actual or even new players to grind a dead augment that takes forever to obtain and that isn't even close rewarding for their hard work?

Now there's basically no incentive to damage a tank if you know you're not guaranteed to kill them. Before you would damage them (e.g with long range turret) and hope you get assist but now there's no point. This just heavily incentivises kill-stealing with long reload turrets rather than helping to kill them

Aurora vibe!

May I ask why? What motivation to deliver flags for attacking players is now left? Even 20 points was ridiculous reward for most likely failed attempt to deliver flag, now its 5 !? So you have eventually turned Assault mode into TDM and defending side as a winner from the start of match. If you think players will deliver flag then you certainly did not play your own game, why should players voluntarily make primary target of themselves with high chances of failure for such a laughable reward ? This is what I have problem with, you forced us legend players to play with boring and stupid bots and then took last motivation to play with them -> reducing points for killing or assist kill from 20 to 5 and from 5 to 1 for assits. Now you have taken all the motivation for attacking players to consider delivering flags.. good job, next time I suggest you to reduce points for killing jugg from 60 to 5. And for siege reduce 50 points per cap to 5. so we dont have any motivation to play any mode besides TDM.. thanks

Special artwork for @Sarah

Collaboration with @Spektrix

I’ve tried learning Photoshop many times in the past, but I could never quite get the hang of it and eventually gave up. A few months ago I decided to give it another shot but this time putting in real effort to improve. With each new artwork, I’ve learned something different and managed to improve bit by bit. Of course, I still consider myself a beginner compared to the other incredibly talented members of the team, but I’m proud of how far I’ve come. To celebrate my promotion, I wanted to make something special - so I created another artwork, which you can find below!

If you don't bring in more DC skins, why add a stinking Skin Container everywhere? This is ridiculous.... I literally have all Skins from the Skin Containers... Many players were expecting more DC skins in the Mini-Game...

why 5000 reputation points.... 3000 was fine

We need an extreme and urgent nerf to this new Tesla augment.... This would be an exotic category and EVERYONE is getting this augment. Every game we enter has 3 or 4 players with this Tesla augment. And the worst part is that they all use the most ABSURD hulls ever invented. Before, the problem was the floating, broken hulls, much stronger than normal hulls. Now they've added this senseless augment and along with the floating hulls, they are killing our hulls with everything full mk7, defense drone, in 1 second... IT'S IMPOSSIBLE TO PLAY. BORING matches, they end in 3 minutes, the entire enemy team or your team leaves, because they only die, respawn and die in 1 second. Congratulations, you ruined the game.

Do you remember how everyone was complaining about stealing kills in deathmatch? Ever since pretty much getting rid of assists, literally every game mode is now only about stealing kills. Crazy that that was not adjusted with this update. Railgun Master especially is unplayable with this; you do everything, and see only the ones who land the kills shine on the scoreboard. It's completely flawed.

Vodka*

The developers have lost their conscience, they only have money in their eyes, they destroy the game again and again, for the sake of profit they even change the game parameters at will, arbitrarily destroy the equipment that others have spent a lot of time and energy to obtain, and play the players in the palm of their hands, they don't care about the feelings of the players at all, for them, making money is the only purpose
