  1. Noise? Does the paint actually make a sound when you use it? :blink:
  2. To be honest, it would be cool if paints had some other special effects besides some of them being animated. Something like particle effects, glitter, glow, dust, etc. In your case, perhaps it could be a paint that makes a cloud spawn above the tank and rain down on it the whole time (I've seen this in another game :D), but on second thought, it would be absolutely terrible for gameplay.
  3. In this case I strongly recommend that you check out some topics in the Welcome! section, as they will help you get to know how our forum works :) It's definitely very hard to compete against "buyers" (that's what people normally call "paypal-users" here, by the way) if you are a free player, but it's possible. You just have to be extremely careful about how you play, where you get your crystals and how you spend them. The three biggest tips for a free player are: Only play enough every day to complete the three daily missions. If you play more, you will waste supplies. Only spend crystals during 50% sales and unless the sale on micro-upgrades is 50/70, don't buy more than one step at a time. Don't upgrade more than two turrets and a hull. Choose your favourite equipment and stick with it. Try to do things like contests and participate in giveaways Do consider purchasing things like special offers. Offers for less than $5 will let you make a small helpful boost to your tank stats and help you get through the low ranks. And I feel like buying $15 worth of stuff is a fair amount for a F2P game. It's hard at low ranks due to rewards being quite small and items being cheap, meaning that $50 gives a huge advantage at Sergeant, compared to $50 at Legend.
  4. It's a good concept, but I'm not sure why you had to turn it into a rant topic about MM waiting times. I'm sure a lot of people would gladly pay for renting an XT Juggernaut skin, and there's plenty of ways to avoid "wasting" it, the easiest one being making the "timer" start counting only when you are actually Juggernaut, or just give it a limited number of uses, so for example the next 20 times you're Juggernaut, the skin will be XT.
  5. I use Wasp Hammer, so while the slow turret rotation has definitely been the cause of losing some fights, the benefit from reduced bullet spread outweighs it greatly, since it makes the turret incredibly versatile.
  6. Yes, exactly that. As a big fan of Hammer it's pretty bad news, but at the same time I've always known that the two alterations are way too OP together and need a nerf. Pretty sure Hammer suffers the most from this, since no other combination of alterations is equally effective, AFAIK.
  7. Yup, plot twist! :lol: Though it will be back to Alex Lynch in the next episode. I was just a temporary replacement. Thanks! Most people I meet actually say I have an American accent, which is very strange considering that I've never even been to the US. I try to speak British English, but I don't really like those heavy British accents, so I won't try to talk like that. It's not everyone's... cup of tea :ph34r: If you have any more comments about me, please use PM. This topic is about the actual content of the V-log ;)
  8. We already ended that discussion. In WW2 almost every army had instances of deserters being executed there and then. I'm talking about modern army rules.
  9. M1 and M2 alterations will be combined into a single slot. So all M1 and M2 alterations will all become one slot an you can only equip one of them at any time. I assume it's done for balance purposes, although that doesn't really make sense since alterations are not meant to make your turret more powerful. On the other hand, it's much harder to balance them if two alterations can be equipped at once. The perfect example is the two alterations for Hammer — without them the turret is mediocre at best, but with both alts it turns into one of the most powerful weapons. I'll miss being able to use both alterations on it :unsure:
  10. Under review When changing modules I definitely look at the pictures and never even notice the names. But I agree that the module names are misleading and should simply be named after the turret they protect from.

    Should Nives be the V-Log Host?

    Nives doesn't have the time or desire to do voice-over for the V-log, so your vote won't make a difference in that sense. As awesome and cool as he is, it would be quite difficult for players to understand his accent, especially if English is not their first language. If you don't like the new narrator (it's me, by the way :P), then don't worry - Alex Lynch, the normal narrator, will be back to voice the V-log in the next episode. Please discuss the V-log in the corresponding topic. Closed.

    Tanki Online mobile version

    Actually no. The servers are located in the Netherlands, so in Russia I was getting 60-80 ping even with good internet. I live in the UK now and I get around 12 ping on average.
  13. I'm very sceptical that any modern army would officially encourage friendly fire against cowards or deserters. It happened in WW2, sure. But I'm pretty sure nowadays it's banned.
  14. Those behind you? Your own friendly soldiers? What kind of barbaric army is that?

    Tanki World Records

    Only if the record is at least 90% of the 10-minute value, which yours isn't. Sounds too specific, but we'll think about it.
  16. Sorry, you need to think of another solution. Adding a feature that specifically encourages players to kill their teammates goes against all logic. There are plenty of more neutral solutions, such as making the player take fire damage if they hold the flag for too long, or making them take damage if they stay too close to the base with the flag.
  17. Under review Valid I changed your original idea of enabling friendly fire on the flag holder to simply making them automatically drop the flag. It's a much more effective and team-friendly solution.
  18. Wow, Hexed farming up a collection of "hub" topics in News section. Hmm

    Year you joined tanki/ Quit

    I have no life (liek dis if u cri evrytim)
  20. We had this in I&S a couple years ago and it was a complete mess. Pointless topics would be posted every day and it was very difficult to deal with them. Ever since the I&S section was changed, everything became a lot more organised. I know that it's inconvenient to have to wait for your topics to get approved, but we're doing our best to do it as soon as we can.
  21. Exactly. Imagine a Wasp with invincibility and insta-kill driving into the enemy base and killing everyone within seconds.
  22. I never said that I like or support the idea of tying ovedrives to specific hulls, I just explained developers' logic behind it.
  23. Topic merged I strongly recommend that you read the guide for posting ideas, since it explains exactly what the tags mean and what you should expect to happen to your topic after you posted it. You seem to misunderstand the meaning of "Under review", or perhaps it is my fault for not choosing more suitable wording. Basically, "under review" simply means that the idea is valid and developers may eventually look into it and implement it. However, there is no guarantee that it will be implemented, but at the same time I can't decline it if it makes sense and has a chance for implementation. I mean, we still occasionally get ideas from a few years ago getting implemented in new updates. Unfortunately developers simply don't have time to read, discuss and give a definitive answer for every single valid idea topic, so it's impossible to have an evaluation of every single valid topic. That being said, your post got me thinking that we should change the "under review" tag to something like "valid", which would have the same meaning, but would be less misleading. In turn, "under review" would mean that the idea's status is undecided and it's awaiting a decision. I'll discuss this with my team.
