    Join the experiment with crystal drops

    I would be OK with this. The appeal of crystals boxes is that you get instant gratification. It also allows a terribly losing team to get at least something. If boxes do go back, I would advise removing the drop point markers and just making there drop points random-ish. Maybe turn ALL crystal boxes into 1s and just put the other 90% into the fund, just so that people can have something. I really like these common Gold Drops. Also, it would be great if there were at least a couple of seconds before a Gold drop, so that people would have a moment to orient themselves.

    Wishing the Best to those who are leaving

    This is true. A single drugger can't take down a decent team. Yes, they can seriously dent them, but it takes a fair amount of druggers on team A and Noobs on team B to have a complete takeover. Still, I don't know why previous hit-the-ground druggers are in works over this. Just show some skill and study the cooldown mechanics. If you use a DP. you can use a 1st Aid right afterwards. So if you're being attacked, this might be a good choice of action. Also, fallen supplies last just as long as used supplies, so just find a drop zone and save on supplies. So if anything, I would say that this update was BENEFICIAL towards druggers. The re-design will take some getting use to, though....

    Open testing of Smart Cooldowns

    And then they will move on and get another job in some other gaming area. If Tanki falls apart, players will be hurt more than the devs.

    Open testing of Smart Cooldowns

    I noticed that when I'm full health, and I push "1", in consumes my First-Aid and shows the regeneration icon. Is this a bug, or actually part of the update?

    Drugs Update 'Smart' Cooldown

    I'm a drugger, but I don't actually mind the update THAT much. Sure, I won't be able to come out of the stocks with full drugs, but at least the drops will be worth a full minute! (Yay!) Like every other "game killing" update, I will adapt. I will learn to control drop zones and so that I'll be a ble to be in a states of "perma-drug", without using all the supplies I have! Using a 1st aid, a DP, a DA, and a N20 costs 300 crystals per use. Now, I can just use a DP and a 1st Aid later and save 100 crystals. Plus, as long as I control the zone, I will never run out of drugs! Super!
  6. Find drops that now last a FULL MINUTE? Yea. So now you can full drug, but you only have to spend on 1 at a time. The game itself gives you the other two. Of course, if you're backed up on a wall it would be kinda hard to actually get to a drop zone, but hopefully that won't happen TOO often...

    All in One Guide - In progress

    "Note - It is the cheapest turret after freeze" Isida is THE cheapest turret from M0-M3. Freeze is a cheaper M2, but Freeze is more expensive overall. "ur" makes it look unprofessional. Just say "your". It is better to simply put up the whole topic at once than to just put one small part up (that is, you are adding the other turrets,armors, and paints?) You could work on bits of it each day in a document file than copy paste it over, applying any links ands formats once you do that. Otherwise, good show. The quotes were a nice touch. :)

    Double post :/
  10. Dropped supplies will now last just as long as inventory supplies. So, just use N20, then find a DB/DA on the ground. Boom. Full drugging.

    fact about hulls and their stats

    Hunter was always my ultimate destination. Nice to see it's just as an all-rounder as I had previously assumed.

    Tanki Online Browser Logo

    I assumed it was just a "generic tank" , not akin to anything in game.

    Tanki Conversation - Username Insults

    I think that any name with coherent words, capitalization, and doesn't include 12 characters of seemingly useless numbers, is one of the best to have. So when Xxdark_uber_1337xX mocks your username, just realize it's a troll.
  14. I would assume he meant that a Hunter would be useful in a situation that Hunter is useful in, such as mid-field offense. Add Smokys, Railguns, and Ricochets. I would assume he meant that a Shaft would be useful in a map that Shaft was useful in, such as Brest or Stadium. Add Smokys, Railguns, and Ricochets. "It's" is not incorrect. "It" refers to the paint. The 's gives possession to the paint's best use.
  15. I wonder who that IAmNotGoldRockInDisguise character was.... seemed pretty sketch... Although, he's completely "write"!

    [Issue 26] Poem: A View

    Dat plot twist, doh!
  17. Friends, if you have not yet installed the application "Tanks Online" in the social network VKontakte, it's time to do it! After all, the next five days, from the first to the fifth of September when logging in through the app every day you will receive three times the crystal gift! It's very simple: install our app VKontakte and every day, from Monday to Friday, enter the game through it. You will receive a triple crystal bonus, even if that day is already taken your daily gift by going to the main page of the game. Date of installation of the application does not matter, the important fact of authorization through it. Instructions for installing the application(was a link) Offer valid from 05:00 (GMT) Monday, September 1, 05:00 (GMT) Saturday, September 6. Enter the game through the app every day, do not leave gifts without recipient! This is the Russian to English translation from the Russian main topic. So it only gives the 3x bonus when you log in on those days, correct?

    New campaign against Mults and Saboteurs.

    I support this, 100%. I've wanted to be able to report people that break game/chat rules, but it's always seemed like an awful lot of "paper work"... Kinda like REAL police reports. I do use the /vote command actively. Of course, if it was an abalible option for my rank, I would play Pro-Battles with no boxes in order to deter cyrstal grabbers, but, alas, even on Server 1 there is only, like, 2 Pro-Battles on and they have nothing checked so it's just a regular battle that costs 500.

    Tips On Using The Z,X,C Buttons?

    Fast Foot Forward When going against someone, it is not only important to turn your turret, but it might be more viable to turn your hull as well. Let's take using Wasp/Rail into account. The turret on Wasp is weighted on the back, so if you turn your tank to move backwards with your turret turned 90 degrees, you can attack your enemy while showing the lowest amount of your own tank to their guns. This also applies to Dictator and Mammoth, although Mammoth works better when facing forward. C Button My opinion on using the "C" key is that it isn't a necessary key, but can be used to define where your tank is pointed. Hands Separate Now, being able to control your tank and your turret as if they were two separate entities takes a lot of practice but is key to being able to take down stronger opponents. Seeing how you use Hornet, most other tanks will be stronger but slower. In order to fight off, let's say, a Viking/Ricochet, you might find your self needing to retreat AND attack at the same time. So you would try and dodge with your Hornet while keeping your Rail on the Viking with your turret so that you can attack him all the same. Through my experience, I would say that this method greatly increases mortality ranks among low HP tanks. Third Person Grace In Tanki, you have the ability to change your POV from the high top-down view and to the the low rear angle, plus everything in between. For example, if I don't use camera controls when coming up to a large rock, I won't be able to the see the Shaft waiting on the other side, waiting to let go of space bar and murder me to the spawn. In this case, camera controls are key. Now this is how turret control comes into play. If you stay glued to the neutral facing direction of the tank, you have the point of view of the whatever is directly in front of you and what ever is about 45 degrees to both of your sides. If you turn your turret to the left, you can now see everything to the far left of you. You suddenly have multiple perspectives to play around with. In another example, you are being chased by an enemy and you come up to a relatively thin wall. You take cover behind the wall and make your tank become parallel with the wall. Your enemy drives to the opposite side of the wall and stops. Now, with your new turret spinning abilities, you mind think it wise to tun your turret towards the wall, so that when/if your enemy pops out, you will be able to shoot at him quickly. In some cases, it might be better to put your turret to neutral! Why is this? Your POV is now changed to see what's in front of you and whatever is about 45 degrees to any side, or in this case, where your enemy is on the other side of the wall! This mixed with camera controls allows you to base your movements and actions before your enemy is even in firing range! Two is Better Than One If you turn your tank and turret in the same direction at the same time, your turret will turn at the speed of the tank's rotation plus the speed of the turret's. This means faster turning, which means faster reflexes. Simple.

    the Problem With Tanki

    Dependent cooldown of supplies. It will be impossible to use all supplies at the same time; http://en.tankiwiki.com/Development_Plans Nuff' said.

    I've honestly never found Twins to be boring... I might also be one of the only Twin-Dics that I've ever seen above M0.
