Looks like someone's (*Ahem*... Me!) suggested update on paints was finally considered. Nice! http://en.tankiforum.com/index.php?showtopic=289785&do=findComment&comment=5071170

what about Italian tankers? their share is nearly as big as the german one and most of the work has already been done by isso and yele. by the way, congratulations to the polish tankers!

...ever heard about automatic conversions when you make a purchase in foreign currency?

Anyone can buy tons of supplies without effort. Last 3 months i played i earned something close to 800.000 crystals. Just daily routine and daily missions, no no-lifing and such. i was able to purchase 2 m3 guns, 1 m3 hull, paints save up for a ton of microupgrades and some passes. In this game, you can earn with some effort more than 10.000 crystals daily. You can get 100.000-150.000 crystals (the cost of a 1500 supply pack) in less than 2-3 weeks. If you follow a correct and enjoyable gameplay style, those supplies can last for months, if not more. I mean... That was me the first days of august and some days ago. I played like COSTANTLY USING SUPPLIES and i was not able to use even HALF of them in 3 months of playing... TL;DR If you whine about not being able to afford supplies, you are unable to mantain a stable economy\gameplay style regarding your account.

Things that usually end up in a Table Turn\ Decide the Fate of a match: -Gold drops and suddently someone caps 2 flags or takes all the points. I've won/lost countless battles this way. Quick tip: If the fund is big and the game is close, Skip the gold. Otherwise, if you are winning/losing by much or the fund is low, Go for the gold. -Suddently fatal erros make 10 peoples rejoin the game the team with less fatal errors ends up capping a flag/taking some points. Quick tip: reduce the game resolution with the + - Keys \ Play in smaller maps. -One team gets 1-2 "mults", players with m0 equipment or who do not play. If the the other team is skilled enough, the fate of the game is oblivious. -Suddently a takeover team joins an empity team A random team cant do anything against an organized one who can use supplies. Takeovers usually work. Quick tip: if you are on the losing team and your score is low, quit. -One team is made up of Low rankers\Extremely unskilled\Supplies-less players, while the other is well Equipped\Skilled The result is oblivious. Quick tip: same as above. -One team is able to capture 2-3 flags in a row \ Uses too many supplies \ Keeps all the points for some minutes The enemy team usually gives up. Quick tip: if you are the leading player who makes the team win, slow down so your game does not stop and the fund keeps growing.

V-log got reuploaded. (in english channel this time)

Playing daily, no test drives for me yet.

Thunder-Dictator, Viking-Ricochet, Smoky-Wasp, Hornet-Fire, Shaft-Mammoth... ther are many good looking combos out here, as well as weird ones.

remember the 90% sale on mines? that is just 150.000 crystals for 30.000 mines.

that is a modified barda map. enlarged borders and extra props

you edited it and sniped me. is gubakha

not tribute. Edit: jackpot!

lost temple is waaaay bigger than this map. comeon, it was popular some years ago.

maaaaaybe cross? oblivious bridges and towers. Guess mine now:

I feel a precise story would only limit the future evolution and expansion of the game. Atleast in my opinion, dont place rails if you dont know if you will be able to follow them. The arcade simplicity of tanki online is one of the key points of the game.

@@dogm45 use the cartonish filter on fracture-painted tanks. it looks awesome!

You are right, but you cant bash the poor helpers who, atleast for now, cant do anything to ban him because is not their fault if the rules are outdated. You dont get results by ranting over and over, you get result by calmly proving your point.

Fist gold box with hornet XT

i think the definition of "mult and saboteurs" and the way you should report them are outdated and inadeguate. High rank players using m1-m0 combinations for a lot of time and having horrible d/l like the case above are clear examples of mults and should be regarded as those without the need of a video. Just some pictures spaced 5 minutes apart should be enough, clearly showing a chat with you saying "please change equipment or i will report you for sabotage".

in polygon CP speed is not really an issue, so i would go with viking, unless the game is a pro-battle with mu's turned off. Regarding ricochet, yes. you should avoid wasting too many shots because of the reload factor. if you are working with ricochets, send no more than a shot or two to test the bounces, and unload your clip only if you are sure to hit something. If you remain with your clip empity your dps goes down drastically, making you an easy prey for every gun out here.

if MU's are on, Rico-Viking for life. if they are off, Rico-Hunter is exponentially better. Nice article, really well made and full of useful info.

I have enjoyed your articles for years, Hog. You were the best reporter in the english community and i wish you good luck with your life!

epic contest. i like it

Yesterday: Hornet XT mission completed. Today, after some switching, 80.000 crystals and 2 supplies supermissions.... Viking XT! Then i changed a little more but i got only a crystals supermission that i also changed. No XT guns were seen, effectively wasting another 50.000 crystals
