The real April fools joke is where @Opex-Rah announced 4 years ago that there will never be hull alterations, leading me to decline a bunch of ideas for them. But now it's actually being implemented ?

So I went outside, got arrested, fined for violating quarantine, sent back home. I guess the new adventures and hobbies will have to wait until this whole thing blows over... I'm sure this will come as a massive shock to everyone, but looks like you guys will be stuck with the same old forum team for a while longer. Who would have thought ? Dark Lord Riddler has been dethroned, although somehow I have a feeling that this is not the end of his tyranny. ? moo

Tanki Online does have an anti-cheat system, but cheat developers find a way to get around it. Most of the serious hacks (like teleportation, flying and going through walls) have been blocked, but minor ones still get through. This is because it's very difficult for the anti-cheat to tell the difference between a jump hacker and a lagging player, so making the criteria more strict would result in large amounts of frustrated honest players who lag a little bit and get self-destructed or kicked from battle. Tanki developers continue improving the anti-cheat, but unfortunately there is nothing we, as players, can do to affect it. The most you can do yourself is record a video and report it on the Russian forum. Closed.

Actually he's Emperor Palpatine. Get your Sith lords right!

Don't click me

I was genuinely looking forward to it. this is big sad :c

nice potat

All hail the Supreme Leader @RIDDLER_8 (may his power be eternal)

Dear players In light of the ongoing pandemic and quarantine, together with the forum team we've decided that life is more meaningful than spending all day watching the forum. We wish to pursue other ventures in life, including indulging in new hobbies and learning new skills, all of which takes considerable amounts of time. Therefore it is with great sadness that I'm announcing departure of the whole forum team from the game. On behalf of the forum moderators I would like to thank all of the regular forum users for making the forum an interesting and friendly place; I would like to thank the other helpers for providing their assistance and being good company; I would like to thank the community managers for doing an excellent job at maintaining and improving the community; And I would like to thank the spammers and violators for making our job exciting and unpredictable. We enjoyed interacting with every single one of you and hope to meet you again in the future. Sincerely yours: @Maf @Ninja @Hate @Destrod @AV-Gamers @ControlledChaos @Leur @Thiedes @Mr.Nibbles Our time here has been an amazing experience and I regret none of it. I wish it would last longer, but unfortunately it doesn't seem to be the best course of action going forwards. We wish you all good luck and fun times in this game as well as in real life! --------------------------------------------------------------------------- Now for the good news ? I am excited to announce that the forum team's new replacement will be none other than @RIDDLER_8 — one of our most renowned forum users as of the past few years. I am confident he will carry on our duties and take great care of the community, as he is capable of far more than I ever could. With his limitless creativity and ultimate desire to transform the project according to his great vision, you are guaranteed to be in form some exciting times in the near future! With that in mind, I believe such a massive forum renaissance deserves a significant reform in the way it is managed, which is why RIDDLER_8 alone is getting the role of Supreme Leader — a well deserved title for someone of his status. I wish him great success in restoring balance in the community! Once again thanks everyone, and see you around :3

I don't even know what to believe anymore ?

I don't now, not sure if last year's announcement about daily word limits in chats was "something cool" ?

Don't forget that last year they did the same thing - announced an update on April Fools and after a couple days said that it was just a joke. Though in this case I'm definitely hoping it's real. Seems like a fun concept.

Because this will not replace the current Juggernaut version. They will both be available to play. But this new JAO version is only available in HTML5. It's probably called Alpha-Omega because of the cooperation needed between the two Juggernaut operators. I guess we'll find out when we test it day after tomorrow ?

This new mode is definitely quite the surprise. I'm curious to see how it will play out, especially with the voice chat and new special powers. This is a bit strange, considering that while controlling the turret you'll be able to see your teammates' health but not that of your own. Glad that something like this is finally coming to the game. A very long-awaited feature, and I hope it will be made available in other modes too. We've been lacking efficient communication ever since servers got split Juggernaut never needed to use supplies before. I'm interested whether it will have even higher damage/armour/speed than now, or it will start with lower stats and have to enable supplies to become more powerful. Not sure which option I'd prefer. Overall looking forward to testing it out, assuming this isn't just a massive april fools joke

I see you got that Internet Explorer syndrome? I literally added an edit line on that very post, saying I realise it got implemented ?

While walking around Dubai Media City, an interesting section of their mural caught my eye. Took the opportunity to make some relevant edits:

Topic merged Nice, you basically posted the exact same idea as the one you posted 2 years ago ?

As said above, you can contact myself or Ninja if you disagree with the decision to close a topic. It's entirely possible that we made a mistake, so if you explain it to us, we can reopen the topic and find a compromise. But in 99% of cases topics are locked for a valid reason.

I agree. There should always be at least one crystal kit available. However, keep in mind that with this new system it's quite pointless to expect exactly the one kit you want. A better option is to compromise, so, for example, if you wanted Hunter with Smoky, maybe you could buy a kit with similar equipment, like another medium range turret and medium hull.

Under review The system is intentionally made this way in order to balance the amount of stars players are receiving. By removing the link between teammates, you're allowing each player to obtain the maximum amount of stars in every battle, which could negatively affect the economy. The counterpoint to this, however, is the fact that even now you can conspire (or just get lucky) with your teammates and have the same score at the end of the battle, which could potentially give the whole team 3 stars each with minimal effort (70 battle points). So I'm not sure how this new system would actually compare to the one we have, but I definitely agree with the idea itself. It would help reduce these frustrating moments where you just managed to catch up to first place, but he makes a kill in the last second and "steals" your extra star.

This is just how the conversion was done. Developers said that since players like you have a significant temporary advantage, you will quickly progress through the ranks and gradually lose the advantage until everyone else also has Mk7s. It will take some time, but the system will balance itself. As this has been thoroughly discussed already, there is no point having this topic around. Closed.

No, x2.25 I know most schools are closed, but don't forget to study your maths! ?

Man I really hope I don't get this carnivorous thing. I've been vegan for 10 years now and would hate to break the streak!
