    That is what we have the help site for.

    What do you regret doing in tanki?

    Exactly this. I chose to get more hulls, turrets and paints first. Goals from before MUs existed and I suppose I was a bit slow to adjust those goals... By the time I had most of them and could start MUing, micro-upgrades were made much more expensive. Then by the time I had a decent amount of MUs on my favorite gear, micro-upgrades were reduced in price again.

    Game and Team Balance

    I would like to nuance this a bit. While I agree with the second point being a fair measure, I do not agree with the first one, at least not entirely. It's also the reason I have my reservations about the CP scoring system. I don't think we should strive for perfect balance (team balance that is) in the first place. If we were to do that, then the incentive to try your hardest, improve your skills, grow your garage etc. will become far less. If there are all kinds of mechanics in place to penalize the winning team in favor of the losing team simply because the losing team is losing, then what's the point of really trying? In CP you try your hardest to get ahead of the other team and secure the win, only for it to be taken away in the last minute because the losing team can catch up so easily if even one little thing goes wrong in your team. That doesn't really seem fair to me either. So, instead of putting restrictions on the winning team, I'd rather see an improved way of distributing players over the teams. Something like a rating that takes into account battle performance as well aside from just rank. I don't even think wider rank brackets are a cause of imbalance between teams IF the ranks are evenly distributed. Whether it's fun for the low ranks is an entirely different discussion though. It'd also be great if equipment could be taken into account, but unfortunately that can easily be sabotaged. I also agree with @wolverine848, players in the losing team need an incentive to stay. Nowadays losing a game doesn't mean a bad crystal reward at the end (compared to score and compared to the winning team), but if one team is far stronger than the other team, players will leave. That makes the balance even worse, and that is where the idea to restrict the larger team's supplies for example comes in. Or giving the smaller team overdrive quicker. Little take home message: there are pros and cons for pretty much all possible measures to 'improve' balance and the question is how fixed do we really want to have the outcome of battles and how fair do we want to make it for winning and losing teams/players?

    March Challenge — Hornet Legacy

    Both the challenge and the gender war end with the server restart on the 29th. They do, both on the 29th with the server restart at 2:00 UTC The timer is correct, in the announcement the wrong date was stated.

    Complaint Book

    I'd like to remind everyone again to carefully read what is written in the first post of this topic: And what is stated in the game rules: 4.4. It is forbidden to publicly discuss the activities of Assistants of Administration in the Game’s Forums, Chats, official groups in social media. All complaints on the work of Assistants should be sent to an administrator of a respective assistants group;
  10. No, as it says 'leave this field empty for a random choice from the spectator'.
  11. If you're looking for solutions to fix technical issues you're having with the game, you'd best visit the help site. I find this a great solution to reduce/prevent issues: What is Standalone Flash Player? Also, when you're using the client or standalone flash, you might want to clean Internet Explorer's browser cache as well, since both the client and standalone use that for storage.

    Episode 206 of the V-LOG is live!

    Very agile indeed, but one of the disadvantages there is that they're more likely to make hot fixes instead of permanent fixes due to the short sprints. Making such hot fixes and solving bugs distracts from actually developing software a lot. You'd (obviously) want as little problems and bugs to occur after a release as possible, so you can keep up the programming/developing pace. And with visual bugs like these that won't affect performance, chances are very likely they'll just end up somewhere at the bottom of the backlog.
  13. Distribution of the rewards got delayed a bit unfortunately, because one of the winning entries in the contest was under investigation and that investigation had to be concluded first. The list of winners is updated and the rewards have now been sent!
  14. "A Handful of Happiness: How a Prickly Creature Softened a Prickly Heart Hardcover" by Massimo Vacchetta and Antonella Tomaselli. I usually prefer reading fiction over true stories, but I'm thoroughly enjoying this one.

    Women’s Faction wins Gender WAR

    At the moment of writing this, you'll need 619 stars or up and to have bought the Lady paint to get one of the animated paints. Since there's still a little over a week to go, that number will surely go up a bit more.
  16. Luckily you're paying attention! It's corrected.
  17. That is the deal you're getting with Paygarden unfortunately. Knowing that upfront, it's best to find a purchase that costs the same as the amount on the gift card. Instead, it was divided into all the possible gift cards that you can use to purchase items in TO via Paygarden. That way players can directly see which gift cards they can or cannot use. It's a glitch (if you can call it that) with a renamed user that hasn't logged into the forum since. Forum accounts don't get updated unless they're being logged into. E.g. group, rank and nickname changes will not be seen on the forum until a player logs into the forum.
  18. I can imagine it's incredibly annoying to face lags and other technical issues regularly, which is why we actually have a place that contains all the tips, advice and information on these topics, on our Help Site. If you feel there's something missing, or have any suggestions on how to improve that site, please do leave them here: ★ Tanki Online Help Site Hub ★
  19. If you have more than one account, and you want them linked to a Google account, you'll need more than one Google account aswell. The update affects mobile and PC players equally.
  20. Topic ownership changed from @Magenta.
  21. No, I'm afraid not. A gift card can only be used once, even if the value of your purchase is less than the value of the gift card: Note that this does not apply to Paysafecards.
  22. Did you post it in Instagram or Facebook? And have you used both hashtags in your post (#8March2019TO_EN and #8March)?
