:blink: I gotta admit it's catchy, but... rather disturbing.

Do you have full uncropped screenshots?

Test servers are used for testing upcoming updates. The update that was being tested recently was the Personal Discounts and Test Drive update. You don't need the /addscore and /addcry commands to be able to thoroughly test the updates, so they were disabled. Also, only two servers open at once is enough to collect good test results, therefore using up resources to support more test servers is pointless. If you still think that test servers are opened just so that you can have fun using M4 equipment and infinite supplies, you are wrong. Closed.

It's not cheating, but it's just rude.... It's like pretending to be hurt in football just so that your team gets an advantage.

I.e. Using this strategy does very little to the probability.

If you're going to start a topic like this, I hope you at least plan to keep a statistic or something like that... Good luck.

Of course I know that the official info is the 50-50 chance, but in reality what they say may not be what it actually is. This news was a while ago. They may have changed the value later without releasing news about it.

I wanna test this thing: :ph34r:

Yay! I hope I'll finally get to test-drive the Orange paint soon...

It's most likely not something that would seem interesting/important to players, so no news are given out. Very few bugs and glitches are actually visible in-game. Many are subtle and hidden, such as Rico's shots occasionally not dealing damage.

Not even that. Tanki Online is an arcade with very little realism and resemblance of real-life warfare. Tanks are just a theme that the developers chose in order to be more appealing to the audience. Instead of tanks we could have go-carts or pac-man ghosts running around and popping each other with bubbles, darts and banana peels. The gameplay would be exactly the same.

So far all I've seen in this topic is "nerf this and nerf that" for every single gun. People are just saying to nerf whatever gun they find most annoying, which depends on the equipment they like to use. That's not how balance works. So far the only thing the replies in this topic are doing is giving the developers your personal opinions about game balance.

I am aware of that, but as Serene confirmed herself - when you only have two options and take over 1000 samples, the value you get should be pretty close to the actual probability. 40-60 is not at all 50-50.

That's the official information. As you can see - I actually did a test to check that and got different results (40-60).

It was fairly straightforward. Started from zero and in my head added +1 for every supply mission and -1 for every crystal mission. Got 237 in the end and did the maths. Only took about 20 minutes.

Just spent 1 000 000 crystals on changing missions on the test server. Results: 1150 missions 23 super missions 2 XT rewards (both Hornet) 456 crystal missions 694 supplies missions Analysis: according to these particular results, the chance of getting crystals is around 40%, while getting supplies is 60%. I'm not sure how close it is to the true value, but for a set of data with just two possible results 1000+ samples should be more than enough. The chance of getting super missions (not XT but 9999(9) in general) is 2%, but there is not enough data to call that value accurate. This was achieved using the strategy in the post above - changing only one slot, while the other two are occupied with non-XT-type missions.

Thanks for the translation! Added to first post, with a few changes:

Generalissimo kits might return in the future. Are you sure that you can't see the kits simply because you have all the items from them?

Yes. Heavier tanks have more mass and power, so pushing other players is their main tactic and advantage for taking the gold box. If you are using a light tank, you need to be smarter about taking gold boxes - jump on it from the top, climb on other tanks or try to catch gold boxes on the edges of larger maps, where the heavy tanks never go after the siren.
