I was having big issues after last Flashplayer update, reverted to prievious version, lag stopped for a bit, but was having issues with irregular FPS drops, ping spikes and odd tank control, was advised to check if "mouse control button" was checkmarked, sure enough it was. I use a laptop and touchpad was causing the problems Un-checked "mouse control button" and problem solved It is on by default any time you clear your cache :excl:

I Love a lot of things in Tanki The removal of crystal boxes The random locations of Gold boxes The format battles Many changes to maps Smart cool downs Pro battle creation options Jumping from server to server without having to log in each time The friends system The openess the forum has achieved over the last two years These are all things that were implemented for the players and have been great improvements to the game

Why is this topic not pinned :rolleyes:

Maybe if you deal with lonesharks in Vagas

How did Mr.Dreyer come up with such a topic? A: B: C: D: E:

Oh, I missed the sarcasm there monkeyburn :p

would be reasonably fair if it was only Russia and the discount was around 30% but 56% is prefferential treatment no to mention countries like United Kingdom Denmark, Belgium and 20- 30 other countries can log onto to ru site and receive the same discount even though their disposable income is higher than that of North America. Want to bet places like Kingdom of Saudi Arabia and other places like that with 10x the disposable income can buy from the ru site and receive the the 56% more crystals as well . This is a shady way to give those who were aware of the difference to take advantage of the discount while players who were unaware are being soaked.

Was going to spend $40-$50 and get a of pile of crystals and MU all my equipment but that's not going to happen anymore after finding out about this double standard, I''ve decided to quit working on garage, play the occasional pro battle with my friends and find a game worthy of my money.

Its not Tanki stopping the transaction, its visa/mastercard owned by the US refusing to honour the transactions to russian banks, politics aside, we players have nothing to do with these problems, what is at issue is that they have this two value system in the first place. Predominantly the core players of this online game, as well as many others like it are lower and middle class families who are all in financial crunch around the world with shrinking disposable incomes, for the most part higher income class players are into console games and pay to play games. So stating that russian players are more of a financial crunch that that of families in other parts of the world who enjoy playing this game are in a better financial situation is ill thought out and not based on reality. From what I understand , access to the russian site is only an issue for US and Canada, all other countries have access, unless I hear otherwise from players in other countries to the contrary

Look at it this way , a Russian goes into a shop and buys a choclate bar for 1000 rubles, later on Englishman walks into the same shop and the shopkeeper sells the same choclate bar for 2099 rubles

He left my friends list :huh:

That is why he was banned

This sounds like the same type of thing that O.U.F.A did to aquire God_Mode

Yes, he is still there, and has gone off line then back on for a bit then off again, i cannot invite him to battle iether

Got an incomming request from BLANK :o

It is not a coincedence that Flashplayer just had an update on the 21st, I started seeing a lot of lag, trouble entering the game "loading forever" and "disconected by server" I uninstalled chrome, and Flashplayer as well as active x cleared cache, restarted windows, and installded previous version of Flashplayer, and re-installed Chrome. All issues I was having dissapeared.

Then why can players in Sweden, United kingdom, Denmark for example log onto battle-ru and pay by visa/MasterCard in rubles and get the 54% more crystals with only a 2.5%charge by their credit card company while it's declined by Tanki if accessed by accounts registered in Canada and the US?I see it is not an issue created by Tanki but from the banking system, and I can unerstand the ecconomic difficulties that are happening around the world, but is is starting to seem like most countries are able to purchase through the RU site getting the larger discounts, so why have two different quantities of game currency that mainly affects North American clients, this issue is created by Tanki. I would like to hear from players in other countries to see if they too have access to purchases at the Russian rate.

I have been talking with several players from the UK and other areas in Europe and they have been able to purchase through RU payment system, obviously Tanki is placing political economic sanctions on its North American players.Ideals like this show that even children pay the price for old men's arguments and foster the next generation to continue in the same manner.

I find the difference excedes the reality faced by many countries around the world. they get 54% more

I heard rumours that players within the Russian Federation were getting more crystals than players outside the Russian Federation. I was positive this was not the case :o Well I did some research, I contacted a Russian friend in the game and asked how many crystals he gets for 2099 rubles, the equivilant to 41.97 US which will give us 60000+60000 for free. His response was 105100+80000 free I was shocked. I then checked out the RU site and verified the numbers and it was completely true. That is 120000 for evryone outside the Russian Federation And 185100 for players in Russian Federation Thats 65000 more crystals for the same money If both players use Double Crystal Card players in Russian Federation get 130000 more crystals for the same money. I sent a letter to TankiOnline reguarding the matter and this is their response: Hello! We received your application. Once your issue is resolved, we will send you a written response to your e-mail. We apologize for keeping you waiting. Hello. Yes we have this difference and it won't be changed due the difference in economics of countries. If you disagree with this situation you can buy crystals paying in Roubles. Choose Ru localization and Visa button in payment section of the game. I proceeded as directed by TankiOnline to purchace through the RU site. To no avail, the purchase was refused by TankiOnline verified by my credit card company. I sent another letter to TankiOnline and this is their final response: Hello! Due to some economical reasons we can't change the price of crystals. If you don't want to buy crystals anymore, you still can earn them in battles, by inviting your friends and getting crystals for their achievements, by taking part in various contests and winning. Crystals can also be received in daily gifts. We hope for your understanding. I am appaulled by this ethno-national favoritism and am boycotting future financial support till there is a fair system of purchases based on worldwide exchange rates. Please share your thoughts on this policy and voice your oppinions. Please keep your posts civil and honest

My experiences with new freeze. close range damage is good, as it should be, hull does not slow down much, only when being hit, as soon as burst is over hull gets back to full speed, the annoying thing is turret seems to be frozen for a very long time, Too long in my oppinion, it seems to last for a good minute to minute and a half

Do you actually believe the stuff you write :blink:

I must say, I don't hand out praise in this game very often, but in this case I think the developers did something Great! It was easy to submit an application to be part of it, the selection of players was fair, the finals were given airtime on Twitch for all to enjoy, and everyone had a chance to win prizes. Of course there is always room for improvement, I hope all the players who were selected for the tournament recieved a special reward for being the lucky ones, also the finalists should all get T-shirts for their contributions to the tournament. It is a great way to promote TankiOnline by having kids around the world wearing T-shirts to school, or anywhere, gets visiblity of the game out to the people you wish to engage. I would also like to suggest that a possiblity for keeping the games momentum going would be to have the 4 best players from each of the communities of the players teams become the Tanki team in the next tourney against a new set of players selected in the next application selection winners. Keep up the good work, these are the kind of events Tanki needs. The final word, By swede1
