"AlpacaKiller" starting a clan for llamas... Kinda fishy, don't you think?

This is a topic for screenshots ONLY from the tanki forum and chat. Please don't post humour from other websites.

You are choosing between completely different guns. Despite the fact that both are long range, the gameplay of one has almost nothing common with the gameplay of the other. With shaft you sit in one spot, see an enemy, shoot them and move to a different spot. The skill is in choosing the right enemy to shoot, dealing the right amount of damage and actually hitting the enemy tank despite the fact that you sometimes have to aim at a target that is only partially visible, may move at any moment and the aim cross is constantly wobbling. With railgun you have to be in full control of your tank, being able to move, turn your hull, turn your turret and shoot ALL at the same time. The gun is easy to learn, but extremely hard to master. The advantage is that with M1 railgun you can participate in PRO battles with XP format, which is a great opportunity to play interesting games, become more skilled and get lots of crystals. At the moment just play the two guns at M0 and upgrade the one you are most comfortable with.

Nice topic. Should be moved to off-topic discussion though, it's not really about the gameplay...

You shouldn't post separate topics with questions regarding what to buy. Instead, ask such questions in the existing topic "What to buy? Which is better?", otherwise your new topics will be closed and you may even get a ban for flooding if this continues. The effectiveness of the paint depends on how many guns from which you have protection are present in the battle. From what I noticed, there aren't that many twins on any map, however shafts are common on popular maps such as Serpuhov and Stadium. I would suggest Winter out of the two you are choosing from, but IMHO neither are good enough and you should save up to buy something better during new year sales.

Apart form the fact that your clan is posted in the completely wrong section, the actual topic violates numerous clan rules. I strongly suggest CAREFULLY reading the clan topic creation rules here, fixing all your mistakes and moving the clan to this thread.

It's not a short period of time. If you want to see crazy development - look at minecraft, where they add 10 new features every couple months. Tanki hasn't even seen any new hulls and guns in the last 3 years, the biggest gameplay changes were made by the new graphics, the rebalance and the recent change in the drugging system.

Well they changed it in the recent update.

Yeah, and they're definitely not gonna go to that one sniping spot to find you and give you the flag to reward you for sniping. I bet if you jump over a shaft and give him the flag in mid-air, he won't even notice and will continue standing there...

You can aim to buy Isida m2 ans play PRO battles with no crystal drops with generalissimos. If your team wins and you were an active player, constantly healing teammates whenever you ave the chance, then your reward will be much bigger because with higher ranks the fund increases at a faster rate and the lack of crystal drops increases the fund rate by 214% Don't bother getting a paint as the +-30% don't give you that much protection and it will be a waste of crystals once you get a 40%+ paint. I didn't use any paint until I was colonel. A good m2 gun is ricochet, although you'll have to wain a looong time before you get m3, however if I play comfortably on rico m2 against m3 hulls, then imagine what m2 will do against m1 hulls.

Capturing flags is the main task in CTF battles, so it makes sense that people get more points for it as it's what brings the team victory. I don't know about you, but most shaft snipers see in battles just shoot off random targets, rather than defending the flag or helping the attackers.

Exactly, which is why there needs to be a limit on the minimum rank of the players participating in this particular record. Here's a video of my friends and I getting ranked up on the new year map last Christmas. Doesn't beat the record, but might as well share it here :)

You shouldn't post new topics with questions about what to buy. There's a separate topic where you can ask all the questions and have them answered by experienced players. As for your question - you should get twins or ricochet as both of those guns allow you to deal lots of damage to many players, switching between targets quickly, which is important when attacking. Don't bother with a paint yet - it's a waste of crystals unless it's one of the top paints with at least 40% protection. The next sale will most likely be on Halloween and/or New Year.

Does it matter what rank they are? What if I get a video of 10 newbies getting "recruit" at once, will that count?

I would add to that the fact that you must be on a flat surface like the top of the bottom tank in the video. If you make a video of yourself freestanding at the bottom of the ramp on sandbox, it shouldn't count because the "corner" on the ground acts like a support.

Hunter is an "average" hull with balanced speed and armour. The reason it is first is so that the layer is then able to choose whether they want to be faster or more difficult to kill.

Definitely not. The record is held by an account called AbsolutePacifist - a player, who created an experiment with a goal of reaching marshal (the highest rank at the time) without a single kill. Before he got isida he player CTF maps and captured flags without killing anyone, which is where he got the XP from. After he got Isida, he only healed teammates and captured flags in battles, getting XP without kills. He played many long battles too, so it's possible that he gained 5000 - 10000 points in one battle with no kills. I'll see if I can find the topic. Found it. http://ru.tankiforum.com/index.php?showtopic=104935&hl=+absolutepacifist&page=1 Here's one of the screenshots (not necessarily his best score)

How is it moving towards WoT? They are two completely different games that will never have any drastic similarities except for the fact that both are multiplayer and both are about tanks.

This could be true if gold boxes still dropped the way they used to - exactly every time the fund gets up to 700(0) crystals and in the same spot every time. Now, the gold boxes drop in different locations, so skill and experience won't give you an advantage when the gold box drops on the other side of the map from where you are expecting it.

A good strategy for damaging freezes in that spot too.

Kind of, but not really... Skill should be measured in % of all potential gold boxes taken. A player that has seen 100 gold boxes and caught 90 is more skilled than one that has seen 3000 and caught 200. If the latter describes lukey0 or JackN1 then they simply invest a lot of time into the game, therefore end up encountering more gold boxes.

I strongly disagree. Have you ever been in a random generalissimos only battle?

A potato hopefully. Potatoes are love, potatoes are life.

Erm, micro-upgrades? How is Savanna not replaceable if you can buy Needle with similar, but more powerful protection?
