The update basically only affects fast turning turrets in close combat situations, which is over half of the Tanki population. Here's Tankis next update https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=BU5oZ1Nk4-0

it's a half baked idea as usual, search my posts on the topic, just another incomplete idea that could be good if it was presented in a professional manner, now it's just an other work around players have to do in order to play, but I find you guys never follow through on completing any ideas you start and they all end up as a mediocre update with tons of incomplete options.

The effect is exponential to the Turret/ hull modification, there is no noticeable change to views by tanks of M0 modifications while M3 modifications with their faster rotation speeds throws off traditional aiming while preforming any complex maneuvers required in advanced gameplay tactics. It is definitely an advantage to lower modification turrets using advanced tactics, using M0 mod several hrs and was rocking an 8.0 D/L easily in every battle, to the point that my M0 Rail felt like an M3 when I was using nitro, While in M3 battles my D/L was hurting dearly, and after playing one hr I was having vision issues focusing on stationary objects, even going to bed I had sensations of spinning. About a yr ago we were playing around with camera speeds using "control, shift, K" in clan and upping rates but it gave little to no advantage to players with good FPS while it did give better visuals to players with poor connections (laggers)

There is already a flourishing topic in Ideas and suggestions, go read it there!!

Attach a Lazer to tank so everyone knows exactly where you are :p

I guess most players are too young to have done anything crazy in their lives, or just sit behind a monitor 24/7

Has Tanki gotten worse? I think overall the answer is yes. The game was a success from the start, gamers were looking for a great mmo pc game and Tanki started making a profit in less than six months. Development was continuous and player base increased and the game matured. unfortunately Tanki decided profit was more important than gameplay and turned their focus on revenue. the last 2 years have been dedicated to nerfing game economics in the hopes of forcing the free to play element of the game to become impossible. This has hurt Tankis reputation irreparably,at one time players would recommend the game to friends and promote the game, but with the events of the last two years no players would recommend anyone to start playing this game. The game has become a pay to win game. Until Tanki comes clean and takes responsibility for its mistakes and shows the players they are serious about recapturing the original essence of the game, I believe the future of the game will continue to have serious player confidence issues. That's not to say it's all bad, I have felt many things are betterhttp://en.tankiforum.com/index.php?showtopic=263510&page=2&do=findComment&comment=4670947 but they are overshadowed by the many poor choices made to the game.

Dial-up in 1994, that horrible noise when you picked up the phone by mistake.

@beaku first post in forum http://en.tankiforum.com/index.php?showtopic=214823&page=86&do=findComment&comment=3319890 Posted 30 Dec 2013 - 14:42 I have an idea regarding the physics of the maps. Each map should have a different physics. For example if there is ice then it will be difficult to slow down. Also if a tank is on a slope it should roll down if it is not accelerating. If the map is sandy then the tank will slow down because of sand. Also there should be more frequent contests to earn crystals as it is very difficult to do so in battles. For example players having ranks from Master sergeant to Warrant officer to have to play against heavily upgraded hulls and turrets of lieutenants and captains so it also becomes very difficult to capture a flag or grab a gold box. Also these contests should be divided in groups depending on ranks so every rank player has an equal chance of winning. A true Tanker right from the start Good luck

You're a crazy man, don't try this at home kids, eragon33 is a Profesional.

I worked a summer as a roadie for a band. The craziest night I ever had, we were booked for an open air concert, had no idea where we were going, we got loaded up and headed out. Following the guys out into the country into the mountains down endless dirt roads about 70k from nearest house, then up a trail to the top of a mountain. As we neared the top you could see light through the trees and we came into this huge clearing , with a massive stage lighting and tents, bonfires, roasted pig and beef bbqs, and open bar. Motorcycles as far as the eye could see. it was a private biker gang festival :O had to be 2000 or more serious dudes in leather, I was freaking, but it turned out to be the wildest party I've ever been to and about 20 bands played that night. This song always reminds me of that night. Here's one of my all time favorite songs from my days as a roadie https://youtu.be/GVgMzKMgNxw

I used to use pay pal and MasterCard / visa Till I found out about the massive discounts given to RU community I no longer buy, as it is unavailable in my Country, but I did verify that it did work in other countries, maybe it still does. I would recommend anyone considering purchases to use MasterCard / visa and try to pay through RU localization http://tankionline.com/battle-ru.html instead of http://tankionline.com/battle-en.html This was recommended by help@tankionline, reference: http://en.tankiforum.com/index.php?showtopic=264025&do=findComment&comment=4662092 You will receive 54% more crystals that way. My recommendation, if it works go for it, if it doesn't, hold off on purchases till they address the problem and come up with a fair solution . :) as the problem is being discussed by top staff at Tanki.

Good one, added to first post ;)

A friend wrote this about friend etiquette: Quote "I know loyalty and helping other players out is a valuable lesson to learn, but people seem to forget that the game itself is meant to be played for fun sometimes too" This a good point. Understanding the rules of engagement when playing against friends in battle comes into play here. It is possible to play against friends and not hurt their feelings, if certain criteria is met. Make sure your friend is ok with it. Personally I have been on both sides of this scenario and it can get complicated. I have been un-friended a couple times and I have un-friended a few people who constantly join against me in random battles. I always opt for Bros before Foes

Well you don't count, you are a legend, they keep you in their friends list for status, plus you're not that great of a player xD

Why so few people follow Friend etiquette? It's simple, if you are searching for battles, and you see a friend in need, then you help him out. If you have a friend on both sides unbeknownst to each other, its best to stay out, unless many friends are in the battle, then you should join the losing side to help. Have any other etiquette rules to share? If you have had friends come and help, share your pics! Don't vent on players who have betrayed you in this topic. Other good rules of friend etiquette :

Say hi to the guys at permkra, lol

Yes Tanki is thinking about their lower rank players, for M0 through M2 players, the game is fairly balanced, the costs are not too large and MUs are not a big concern. For any players in M3 ranks the game is a nightmare, your earnings in battle are way out of whack with reality, when each turret, and hull costs 600-900k each, any Tanker that wishes to continue in the game and get the full experience of gameplay they must spend on average $600/per yr over two yrs to become M4, or Cheat!

If you are going to buy during the promotions days, take advantage of this deal, 1.4 million crystals through the battle-ru servers on June 5th if you are lucky enough to get DCC. For 52+/- euros/57+/- US with Mastercard if you wish to donate to Tanki. We North Americans will miss out, so have a nice party everyone else.

Guess we will find out shortly how this update pans out. will it be fun and more profitable than playing the way we have been lately, grinding nonstop CP battles like mindless zombies turning into a pack of rabid dogs at the sound of the gold box notification? Will the buyers have advantage and steal the missions from the average tanker, or will Tanki become an endless game of powerleveling in the almighty quest of meager funds in the futile attempt to acquire enough equipment to compete once you enter the M3 stage of your carreer only to be poisoned by the MU plague that has spread throughout the game. My feeling is that it should be called "Mission Impossible" Tankis theory of relativity "Time vs Reward" has fallen more than the ruble in the last two years and this is a trend that will continue, I am afraid to say. Another chapter in the fairytale of wishful thinking. The only place you will find a satisfactory reward is in your dreams. Good night and sweet dreams

I would love to see you put your money where your mouth is, and disclose exactly how many players have done that. I'm sure that info is only a few clicks of a mouse. Im sure there is a treasure trove of MU stats that players would love to hear about. IE: how many fully MUed M4 turrets hulls and paints are there in the game?
