Now only way to enjoy playing is with sound OFF, and that's a stretch

when can you #YouHaveBeenJokersus.cava'd the swede, I want one :P Honoured to have you drop by our club.

I don't know about that. My nub account, I was able to make 900+ per hr of gameplay and often 30% of players there were alts as well, what will happen now is more alt accounts will flood and clean up battles even more, its a game of crystal hunting, if that is where the thrill is, that is where they will go. These changes are all smoke and mirrors, the fundamental balance has not changed at all.

I think they are trying to make everyone happy with hands tied behind their back. B) "You may give low ranks more crystals" "You may give medium ranks faster rank up" And "You may give high ranks stronger hulls" And we the players: low ranks spend more medium ranks spend faster And High ranks spend all over again

Dusting off my Mammoth as we speak :P

I knew you would love this one ;)

Hot off the press from Russian forum. :mellow: With the destruction of enemy tanks, fund battle crystals are added depending on the rank of the destroyed tank. The higher the rank, the more crystals will be added to the fund during its destruction. For the first 10 ranks the following changes: Rookie + 92% Soldier + 54% Corporal 37% Corporal 28% Master-Corporal 22% Sergeant 18% Staff Sergeant 15% Master Sergeant 13% First Sergeant 11% Sergeant Major 10% Further, increasing gradually falls to + 1% Generalissimo If you are over this rank, you will see absolutely no meaningful increase All this does is paint a pretty picture for new players into the game that the funds are great, They unfortunately have no clue of the real story, it will be a real shock when they start seeing the funds lowering at every rank increase and costs skyrocket.

Tiered no supply passes are what's needed. get low ranks involved in no supply games and higher funds across the board. Remove health supplies out of packages and from contest rewards and do not discount, as they are the biggest hindrance in drug wars, and are much too easy to acquire and use at will. Possibly even increase the time between uses more.

Token gesture, I don't think it will make any difference other than keep the low ranks interested long enough that they feel they have invested so much time into the game, there is a strong option to continue even when the fund vs cost balloons at Warrant officer 5 rank and M2 equipement. 95% of them will not have saved and followed a strict plan. It's the mid ranks that are way under funded.

Balance was almost perfect before Hammer / vulcan arrived. Only Mammoth was too slow. New turrets and paints threw balance off to what players were used to. Paint options now a big mess as well with so many options and paints with max 4 protections of which only 1 or 2 are of any value, 3 protections paints with 1 or 2 useful protections when you are now 9 turrets. FAIL Throw 20000 new options into a game at once and try to understand what pitfalls of balance are, is impossible to calculate. It took two years to finally get a reasonable balance to the original turrets, hulls, and paints. Now mixing in thousands of new variables haphazardly into the mix is a recipe for disaster.

the score multiplier only increases experience points so without pass you receive 10 exp for each kill with 25% you get 12.5 per kill, 50% -15 exp, and 100%- 20 exp approx. you get no added crystals in battle, only experience points towards tour ext rank.

"Lets" discuss SMP, implies discussion with the topic poster or a representative of the poster with the answers. Otherwise it should read, "Please discuss amongst yourselves"

That topic was a hit on top dynamite chat too xD " [3/1/2015 12:08:28 AM] Javid Nazim Mammadov: hey, did you find the bathroom? <<< [3/1/2015 12:13:59 AM] Swede1: the mods hid the bathroom, guess it's a bathroom for management only :| <<< [3/1/2015 12:17:55 AM] Blueink: so no more bathroom breaks between a game? <<< They didn't tell me where it is so I found out myself :D" Rofl Fyi the map was very helpful

"Eureka" !!! I have discovered what came first, the chicken or the egg?

Lol, just don't show this to Hazel, I don't think he could handle working on getting another old map back into the game just to have it sit in the resources void of players. Unless he made it pay out the most crystals in the game like sandbox, poly, island, hill, and kungur do.

Welcome to the New and Improved TANKI ONLINE I am swede1, your Dev for the Day. FYI, this is not a real Avatar As of today, from 02:00 UTC I have decided to make some changes you may enjoy. Every player will receive 300000 crystals, all items will be available for purchase in your garage, but you must use them today only, at which point they will disappear, this is your chance for that dream tank. Spend it wisely. From today forward, all battle funds will be increased by 50% for all ranks. Gold boxes will be 1000 crystals to the player who captures it; all the other players in that battle will receive 500 crystals. No Supply Passes will now be tiered, 1000 crystals for low ranks, 2500 crystals for mid ranks, and high ranks at 5000 crystals. I have selected 5 servers, each of these servers will feature a 1 of 5 maps that has lost popularity, and these maps will have funds increased by a further 25%. Spectator option to watch ongoing battles will be available for purchase on a monthly basis for 50000 crystals. It will also be awarded occasionally in daily gifts for one day spectator passes. No need to worry, the view is one minute behind actual gameplay so there is no chance of foul play. All forum members will now have an avatar of their choice. You can choose any combination of hull and turret as well as the paint of your choice with the option of a male or female Tanker commanding it. The forum will now have prize matches for members logged into the forum, you will see a “Prize match occurring now” just click on “JOIN” and you will be sent a link to your forum PM, just follow and it will take you to the battle. Games will be determined by your garage, M1s will battle against M1s, M2s against M2s, and M3s against M3s. You will be sent directly to the map, you can discuss with your randomly selected team-mates tactics for 10 minutes, you are free to enter garage during that time, but if you leave the battle you cannot re-enter and the next player on the list will get the spot. All players will receive prizes for participation; such as supplies, passes, or crystals, and battle fund of course, the winning team will share an additional 5000 crystals above the standard fund. I know many players enjoy the game chat to hang out, NOW you too can catch GOLD boxes, occasionally you may see a Gold box fall across the screen, click on it, and you will be sent to a link, where there will be a set of questions, answer them as quick as you can and hit enter, If you are the first to answer them all correctly in the fastest time, the GOLD is yours. I hope you have enjoyed having me as your Dev for the day, so go out and have fun. PS. Be sure to upvote if you wish to see these changes stay for good.

hey you asked :P

Ashes, ashes, all fall down.

I can understand your frustration, here is a post I made back when I was a Warrant officer 4 I was ready to through in the towel and quit the game. At the time I couldn't understand it at all, it didn't make sense to me either. The use of supplies is more prevalent as you move up through the ranks. Higher rank players get many more supplies than lower ranks as daily bonuses, and often we only use them when we need them, They also tend to start buying and suddenly have 100k to spend or win large amounts in contests. Also, once you start buying a "no supply pass" the supplies really start stocking up, so when your friend invites you to a drug war, you will have 1000s of reserves to have fun with. Once an opponent pulls the trigger, its game on and may the team with the most come out victorious., Don't worry it gets better. PS : Work on your friends list and save up for a NSP

That's just how he rolls :P

I must say Dmitry Nemtsev spends a huge amount of time on the Russian forum. Ops, almost forgot
