Details: Event: July 2021 Challenge Part II Starts: Friday, July 16th at 02:00 UTC Ends: Sunday, August 1st at 02:00 UTC Duration: 16 days Tankers! The new Challenge starts tomorrow (Friday, Jul 16th). We remind you that we have implemented some changes to our Challenge activities. Silver tier More Containers, crystals and a day of premium account have been added to the prizes to the silver tier. All of them are available for free, including the last one - 100 Tankoins. Gold tier Gold tier prizes are available only for Battle Pass owners. The price of the pass was increased and so were prizes. Now you can get even more Tankoins as well as expensive and unique augments. We have also updated the last reward in the Gold tier. If you already had all the skins, previous challenges would give you crystals, but now you will get Tankoins. Top prizes of the Gold tier: New skin container Striker's «Missile launcher "Cyclone"» augment Ares's «Stun Immunity» augment Wasp's «EMP Immunity» augment Smoky's «Paralyzing Rounds» augment Animated and regular paints Fan There is also a new regular paint to snatch up: Beach Battle Pass As previously mentioned, to get prizes of the Gold tier you need to have Battle Pass. Despite its price increase to 1500 Tankoins, you can get up to 1000 Tankoins back if you complete all the steps of the challenge and if you have all the skins. Moreover, now you can get augments which were previously only available from Ultra Containers. We haven’t just increased the price of Battle Pass but increased the overall sum of prizes you may get out of it and changed the price to meet the rarity of items the Gold tier gives you. Stars As the prize pool of the both tiers got a buff we also increased the number of stars you need to get in order to complete the challenge to 4000 stars. Stars can be earned in 2 ways. The first is by finishing Matchmaking battles - when a battle finishes, players who were in it will receive a number of Stars based on their position on the final scoreboard, and whether their team won or lost (this does not apply to solo battle modes such as JGR and DM). The second way to earn stars is by completing Missions. For each daily mission you complete, you will receive 30, 50, or 70 stars, and for each weekly mission, you will receive 100, 150, or 200 stars. In addition, mobile players have a unique way to earn stars, called "micro-missions". These are easier missions in battle, such as dealing damage, capture a flag/ball/points, or killing enemy tanks, but in exchange, mobile players get no stars from their position on the scoreboard after finishing battles. How to complete the challenge faster You can always snatch a Stars Bundle from the Shop and give yourself a nice boost. Don’t let those cool top tier rewards slip through your fingers! And with Premium Pass you will receive twice as many stars for each battle! And as requested, we have returned the Premium Pass + Battle Pass bundle which will be available in the Showcase within 5 days from the start of the challenge. So, log into the game on Friday (July 16th) and start collecting those Stars!

In the «Arms race» mode, players will need to earn battle points with equipment that changes during the battle. How it works: Hull — always Viking; Equipment modification — Mk7; Maps: Desert, Stadium, Osa; Battle duration — 30 minutes, but... Let’s take a deeper look at how it works and why you will rarely be playing for 30 minutes. All players start with the same equipment — the Viking hull and Smoky turret. After destroying some number of tanks (you will see the number in the game interface), you get another turret. The order of turrets is the same as the order in which they were released. You will start with the first ever turret - Smoky, and work your way up to the newest — the legendary «Tesla» turret. Yes, it means that everyone will have a chance to check out the new turret and decide whether to buy it or not! Let us remind you the order of turrets: Smoky Firebird Twins Railgun Isida Thunder Ricochet Freeze Shaft Hammer Vulcan Striker Magnum Gauss Tesla And at the end you will find a surprise we have prepared for you!

You may try this tool https://winauth.github.io/winauth/index.html or Authenticator extension for Chromium-based browsers. I have tried both options.

Patch Update #653 - Released 2nd July 2021 Added the two-factor authentication feature in the «Security» section of the «Settings» menu. Fixes to the damage dealing system; Improvements to the anti-cheat system for Tesla; Improvements to the shot effects for Tesla.

+ An option

Hello, tankers! Account security is essential for any online game and any website, and Tanki Online is no exception. With tomorrow’s servers restart on July 2nd, an option to enable two-factor authentication will appear in the game. If you have never heard about this feature, don’t worry, just read this announcement till the end. The idea behind the two-factor authentication (2FA) feature is that in addition to your login and password, you also need to enter a one-time code to log in to your account. This code is generated real-time by a special app on your smartphone and the code changes every 30 seconds. Enabling this feature will secure your account from being hacked as your smartphone will be needed to enter your account. In order to use this feature you need to download an authenticator app to your smartphone. We recommend using one of the following apps: Google Authenticator, Microsoft Authenticator, LastPass Authenticator or Authy. An Authenticator is a smartphone app that lets you use two-factor authentication to secure your accounts by generating a one-time code that you need to enter to log in to your account. You will be able to enable two-factor authentication after tomorrow’s servers restart on July 2nd. To enable two-factor authentication you need to: Download one of the following apps: Google Authenticator, Microsoft Authenticator, LastPass Authenticator or Authy. Open Tanki Online, enter the Settings menu, choose «Security» and click on the «Enable» button. See here. Open the authenticator app you downloaded, click on «+» icon to add a new account, and scan the QR code from the Settings menu of the game; Enter a code from the authenticator app in the Settings menu of the game; Click on the «Activate» button. That’s it, now your account is secured! For a full guide (including screenshots) to explain what 2FA is and how it works, check out the wiki article: https://en.tankiwiki.com/Two-factor_authentication_(2FA) The game will ask for a one-time code in the following cases: When you log in to your account for the first time after you have enabled two-factor authentication; You enter your account from a new device; You have cleared your cache or cookie files in your browser (or the game client). We highly recommend that you enable two-factor authentication to secure your account from hackers. Important: You can enable the “Remember me” option and you won’t have to enter a one-time code each time you enter your account; If you have lost access to an authenticator app, the only option to return your account will be via our customer support department, whom you can contact by emailing help@tankionline.com. One more thing. We have seen so many messages from you about the bug with dealing damage and have implemented some fixes which will be also released tomorrow! Moreover, we have improved our anti-cheat system and shot effects for Tesla. Enter the game tomorrow to check out the new cool feature to secure your account with and share your feedback with us!

The new one starts tomorrow (Thursday, Jul 1st). We remind you that we have implemented some changes to our Challenge activities. Silver tier More Containers, crystals and a day of premium account have been added to the prizes to the silver tier. All of them are available for free, including the last one - 100 Tankoins. Gold tier Gold tier prizes are available only for Battle Pass owners. The price of the pass was increased and so were prizes. Now you can get even more Tankoins as well as expensive and unique augments. We have also updated the last reward in the Gold tier. If you already had all the skins, previous challenges would give you crystals, but now you will get Tankoins. Top prizes of the Gold tier: New skin container Firebird’s «Compact fuel tanks» augment Hunter’s «Stun Immunity» augment Dictator’s «Stun Immunity» augment Striker’s «Stunning Missiles» augment Animated and regular paints Campfire There is also a new regular paint to snatch up: Area 52 Battle Pass As previously mentioned, to get prizes of the Gold tier you need to have Battle Pass. Despite its price increase to 1500 Tankoins, you can get up to 1000 Tankoins back if you complete all the steps of the challenge and if you have all the skins. Moreover, now you can get augments which were previously only available from Ultra Containers. We haven’t just increased the price of Battle Pass but increased the overall sum of prizes you may get out of it and changed the price to meet the rarity of items the Gold tier gives you. Stars As the prize pool of the both tiers got a buff we also increased the number of stars you need to get in order to complete the challenge to 4000 stars. Stars can be earned in 2 ways. The first is by finishing Matchmaking battles - when a battle finishes, players who were in it will receive a number of Stars based on their position on the final scoreboard, and whether their team won or lost (this does not apply to solo battle modes such as JGR and DM). The second way to earn stars is by completing Missions. For each daily mission you complete, you will receive 30, 50, or 70 stars, and for each weekly mission, you will receive 100, 150, or 200 stars. In addition, mobile players have a unique way to earn stars, called "micro-missions". These are easier missions in battle, such as dealing damage, capture a flag/ball/points, or killing enemy tanks, but in exchange, mobile players get no stars from their position on the scoreboard after finishing battles. How to complete the challenge faster You can always snatch a Stars Bundle from the Shop and give yourself a nice boost. Don’t let those cool top tier rewards slip through your fingers! And with Premium Pass you will receive twice as many stars for each battle! And as requested, we have returned the Premium Pass + Battle Pass bundle which will be available in the Showcase within 5 days from the start of the challenge. So, log into the game on Thursday (July 1st) and start collecting those Stars!

Prizes are issued

Hello, tankers! We have some legendary news for you! With the servers’ restart on June 18th, the new “Tesla” turret will be released! If you watched the V-LOG then you’ve already seen how it works, but for those that haven’t it’s explained below. How it works Tesla is a melee-range turret with two shooting modes: Chain lightning Ball lightning In the first mode — a lightning “chain” attacks the nearest target. On contact with a target it looks for the next nearest target to make a new “link” in the chain. Teammates and enemies alike can both extend the chain. Electricity goes through all the links in the chain and deals damage to opponents. The damage dealt depends on the number of targets and is divided amongst all the enemy tanks. The critical damage is the same for all targets. This mode doesn’t consume fuel, so it doesn’t need to recharge and you just need to press and hold the fire button. The second mode — features a lightning ball. If you press the fire button and release it, a ball of lightning will appear. This lightning ball deals damage when a target is hit and explodes when a tank or any object is hit. In this mode the turret consumes fuel and needs to recharge. You can use the lightning ball as a “link” in the chain, as well as tanks of teammates and opponents. This way you can increase the length of your chain lightning and deal damage to more enemies. Tesla provides new opportunities on the battlefield and becomes an important member of any team. Early access As for now, you can get the new turret out of the updated Ultra Containers. You may find them in the Shop or get them as a reward for completing super missions. Hurry up to be the first to check out the new turret!

Details: Event: June 2021 Challenge Part II Starts: Wednesday, June 16th at 02:00 UTC Ends: Thursday, July 1st at 02:00 UTC Duration: 15 days Tankers! The new Challenge starts tomorrow (Wednesday, Jun 16th). We remind you that we have implemented some changes to our Challenge activities. Silver tier More Containers, crystals and a day of premium account have been added to the prizes to the silver tier. All of them are available for free, including the last one - 100 Tankoins. Gold tier Gold tier prizes are available only for Battle Pass owners. The price of the pass was increased and so were prizes. Now you can get even more Tankoins as well as expensive and unique augments. We have also updated the last reward in the Gold tier. If you already had all the skins, previous challenges would give you crystals, but now you will get Tankoins. Top prizes of the Gold tier: New skin container Twins' «Heavy plasmagun» augment Vulcan's «Rubberized rounds» augment Mammoth's «Cold Immunity» augment Titan's «EMP Immunity» augment Animated and regular paints Lightning storm There is also a new regular paint to snatch up: Oasis Battle Pass As previously mentioned, to get prizes of the Gold tier you need to have Battle Pass. Despite its price increase to 1500 Tankoins, you can get up to 1000 Tankoins back if you complete all the steps of the challenge and if you have all the skins. Moreover, now you can get augments which were previously only available from Ultra Containers. We haven’t just increased the price of Battle Pass but increased the overall sum of prizes you may get out of it and changed the price to meet the rarity of items the Gold tier gives you. Stars As the prize pool of the both tiers got a buff we also increased the number of stars you need to get in order to complete the challenge to 4000 stars. Stars can be earned in 2 ways. The first is by finishing Matchmaking battles - when a battle finishes, players who were in it will receive a number of Stars based on their position on the final scoreboard, and whether their team won or lost (this does not apply to solo battle modes such as JGR and DM). The second way to earn stars is by completing Missions. For each daily mission you complete, you will receive 30, 50, or 70 stars, and for each weekly mission, you will receive 100, 150, or 200 stars. In addition, mobile players have a unique way to earn stars, called "micro-missions". These are easier missions in battle, such as dealing damage, capture a flag/ball/points, or killing enemy tanks, but in exchange, mobile players get no stars from their position on the scoreboard after finishing battles. How to complete the challenge faster You can always snatch a Stars Bundle from the Shop and give yourself a nice boost. Don’t let those cool top tier rewards slip through your fingers! And with Premium Pass you will receive twice as many stars for each battle! And as requested, we have returned the Premium Pass + Battle Pass bundle which will be available in the Showcase within 5 days from the start of the challenge. So, log into the game on Wednesday (June 16th) and start collecting those Stars!
