    War Herald, Issue #3

    I vote @RIDDLER_8 for faction leader. TRAITOR
  2. Yeah I played it with data for about a month and was really surprised how little it uses. As said above, if you have most things saved in your cache, the gameplay itself uses very little.

    Are Alt-Accounts Killing Tanki?

    Actually it looks a lot more promising than that. I'm sure devs will be able to do it in a third of that time!

    Are Alt-Accounts Killing Tanki?

    Not just efficiency. There will be multiple factors that determine who gets matched.
  5. Topic merged Guy above beat you to it :ph34r:
  6. Valid I agree that there should be better awareness of the rules, but I doubt players would read them in that format.
  7. They talked about it a few times during streams. The goal is to keep the game somewhat the same as it is now, keeping the original concept and gameplay style, but adapting it to better compete against newer, more advanced games and catering to the current population of gamers. That involves adding features such as Matchmaking and changing the game's economy to be more friendly towards new players. The game has been losing popularity and players since 2014, so devs want to change it in a way that old active players stay, but new ones also come and get into the game.

    Tanki World Records

    Why does it say 39 in the video's title?

    That's the reason MM is being added. Alts will be matched against other alts and newbies against newbies. That way it should be more fair to new players.
  10. Yeah. Until developers release an official statement that this will or will not be implemented, it's under review.

    let's discuss video of the week

    Meh, not much to discuss here. VotW is decided by devs to eliminate any chance of rigged voting (e.g. youtubers asking their viewers to vote for them). The length of the video is as long as necessary to show the objective of the video. The main complaint I see about it from players is something along the lines of "This week's video sucks! Do something better!", which really annoys me since players don't understand that the videos are submitted by other players, therefore if the video is bad then no one submitted anything better, and it's not the developers' fault.
  12. Well, for a start I think you misunderstand how updates work. Tanki doesn't need to physically shut down in order to do a lot of updates at once. Sure, if devs do decide to add a lot of things at once then the game will have some longer maintenance (usually 4-6 hours), but it doesn't need to shut down for multiple days. With the way developers release updates now, it's actually quite nice to have new exciting things being added fairly often while at the same time not changing too much at a time and giving us time to adjust to the changes. If they were to instead not release anything for a year and then make some kind of massive update, not only would it get negative feedback due to players disliking such massive changes, but they would lose a LOT of players throughout that year of development, because players simply get bored and leave. The game survives on updates. If changes weren't being made, people would get bored of playing the same thing over and over and they would leave. And the worst thing is that in this case it's hard for devs to even understand why people are leaving. If a bad update is released then there is clear evidence of people disliking it based on their feedback in chat and on the forum. The cause of problem is clear and so is the solution. But if players get bored, they don't announce "hey, I'm bored and I will leave the game soon". They just leave. And that makes it hard for devs because players are leaving and there is no obvious cause for it. I don't know if you were here in 2015, but in that year barely any updates were released. And that's also the year when they game had its biggest loss in the player base - people got bored and left. So to conclude, it's much better to release updates in small batches often, than in a big batch all at once.
  13. I actually did record the specific paint names at first, but after a while decided that it's pointless information, since I don't think it really matters. There weren't any strange patterns with the paints anyway, I think only one or two appeared more than once. You don't even include specific paint names in your reports, so why does it matter? As for the validity of the information, I don't see how the YT data is any less reliable than what you get here. After all, anyone can just come and lie that they got much better rewards than they really did (to make others jealous, perhaps). As for the youtube data - there's literal video evidence of the openings, so there's no way it could have been faked. I can even give you the links to the videos I used. The only reason why the YT data might be a bit inaccurate is that someone is more likely to upload the video of their container opening if they got good stuff from it, so it's possible that YT data will show more epic and legendary rewards than normal. Personally, I'd rather see you merge the data since any potential errors won't make THAT much of a difference. You said it yourself - we're not NASA, so an error in our calculations won't result in some catastrophic failure of a spacecraft. But since you're experienced with this kind of stuff, I'll leave the decision up to you.

    Weather mode

    Topic merged Rain in games is usually just a nuisance. It either requires many hours of development in order to make it realistic and non-intrusive (which is done only by top-tier games), or it's cheap and low quality, which results in it being annoying and ugly. IMHO, this tanki doesn't need rain.
  16. But... how do you put 20 boxes into one identical box?
  17. Topic merged Lowering the price of weak turrets is not the way to go about solving this problem. All turrets should have equal power, so instead, if they are actually weak, Freeze and Firebird need to be buffed somehow in order to compete with all other equipment.
  18. Topic merged Already suggested before. And planned for a future update.
