    Draft Discounts on Tanki Question

    There are some errors here: 1) the 30% discount on hulls triggers at the 6th hull bought, not the 5th. 2) discounts are NOT calculated this way. You apply a discount, then another discount on the RESULT of the previous discount. so by having a 10% discount and then a 50% one, a 100 crystal item will cost you not 40 but 45 crystals, cause you calculate the 50% on 90 crystals left from 10%.

    Let's Discuss Skins!

    Thank you for improving my potato english and including this important piece of info in the main page, but please correct a point i got extremely wrong: "An alternative is completing the unsuitable missions like "Kill 50 tanks" or "Earn 1000 XP" before starting to search for XT." Doing this actually reduces the chanche of getting XT by around 1/3 cause you might end up getting 2 of 6 types you would have excluded by having them in other slots. Sorry for but it was late last night and errors like those can go ahead unnoticed.

    Important info on how to get XT by Serene, translated from russian forum, source here: http://ru.tankiforum.com/index.php?showtopic=724786 Disclaimer: Obtaining an XT mission is hard and painfull, and dont think this guide will make it easy, because it will only maximize your chanches of getting XT. After a short analysis of the XT Missions issues and many topics regarding tankers being unable to get them while committing oblivious errors, i decided to write this text, so there you go. 0. Make sure that you are Generalissimo, because only Generalissimos can get super-missions. 1. You cant have two similar tasks at the same time. This means that if you have a "Destroy XX tanks" task, then you cant get another "Destroy 9999 tanks". Same with "Earn XXX experience" (except "Score XXX experience on XXX map / mode"). Pay attention! 2. XT missions requie you to kill 9999 tanks or earn 99999 experience points. this means that to maximize your chanches of getting an XT mission, you should keep 2 missions not regarding experience or kills like "collect boxes"; "finish first" or "collect experience on XXX map" and one slot dedicated to switching mission. An alternative is completing the inappropiate missions like "kill 100 tanks" or "Earn 1000 XP" before starting to search for XT. (wrong: this reduces your chanches) 3. If you have already an XT mission, DONT search for a second one unless you want an Halved chanche of getting it: you can only get the "other" supermission thus slashing in half the already low chanche of getting one. 4. The chanches of getting an XT missions are lower than 1%, so better get lady luck on your side before starting to change mission. 5. Do not scream at the monitor. It does not help
  4. we can talk about this till the end of the world, but this topis is, and will always be ignored by the developers.

    Kits

    the last weeks "late m3's" kits, like legend, vandal, nomad disappear from the garage after the users reach commander-generalissimo. is a "design choiche" tanki developers made. Meanwhile other "early m3's" kits like medic or jackhammer that are unlocked BEFORE are still avaible at generalissimo. really, i dont know what is going on. This feels just like discrimination against Generalissimos, who have to pay full prices instead of the kit discounts just because their rank is higher. You dont charge 70 cents for a coffe to a normal person, and 7 dollars to another wearing a suit and a top hat.

    Kits

    Generalissimos are not getting kits anymore. the good kits gets unaivable at marsha-fieldmarshall. design choiche. I know, it feels like a punch in the stomach, but hey, if they want to lose buyers who could have got crystals to get them, is their business.

    Hornet vs. Wasp - Which stands tall?

    i have both m3, and those hulls are REALLY different. The extra HP and stability (weight) of hornet makes it suitable for some beating, taking often an extra shot from a large amount of guns: Thunder, Railgun, smoky, ricochet... While wasp extra agility (more speed, lighter, sharp turns instead of slow drifts) relies only on the driving skills of the tanker behind it, cause you cant really take any serious amount of fire, and a shot while you are jumping or turning can often flip you. I suggest hornet for players who want a stable playstyle, and wasp only if you are willing to take a little beating while learning how to drive it. if you manage to master it, the only drawback you will have is the fact your aim can be knocked off easier than hornet, while being fair superior in speed and agility.
  8. isida is the only gun who, in the right hands and with a good amount of supplies, can self-sustain itself for an undefined amount of time.

    Ideas for Missions!

    frost paint was not really XP-themed, it was more of a celebration for winter and new year.

    Loading Time is too much :/

    tanki online on browsers suck. Chrome has random lag spikes, Firefox takes ages to load, and opera is glitchy. Standalone flashplayer is waay better.

    Multiple teams

    Big maps like lost temple or dusseldorf look like they are made for 4 teams battles! 4 teams would be pretty cool to have in tanki... but the current gamemodes do not fit with multiple teams. i had in mind a new gamemode made especially for multiple teams, here is it: Each team has 4 control-point like structures in their bases. the map has 4 special flag-like objects in 4 key points, that match the 4 points in bases. each team has to take those flags and bring them to the relative points in their bases. When a team gets 1 of those, the control point is active and it starts to produce points. the game can end on set time or amount of points. there might even be a variant where the winner team is the first to take all 4 flags to base.

    my mission is legit and it says M3. maybe cause now the developers are working on some m2's for the other ranks.

    Tanki Picture of the Day - Have any?

    just some hours after my last rankup, my nephew happened to use my computer while i was doing some important stuff. He developed a weird sense of humor those weeks, and at a certain point, i hear him saying "ooops, i accidentally wasted 14.000 crystals from your wallet" i dash to him at lightspeed, only to see that he won a little game of russian roulette: he made 17 changes in total... i know players who have spent a lot more whitout getting a special mission. looks like i will not kill him for today.

    Tanki Picture of the Day - Have any?

    After 5 years, a little tear came to my eye. Nothing to say, ecept a Thank you to every single player who ever played a battle with me!
  22. Really, Really, Really, Chicken, Really, Really good article. But there is an issue: a big slice of the tanki cake (or chicken, whatever you like the most) is occupied by the "pros" who think they are well... pro because they have a larger garage or are able once in a while to 360 noscope another tanker in an XP battle like they saw on youtube.
