UPDATE: Our guys are really close to finally solving this issue, was just informed. Just a bit more patience everyone! PS: As a way to compensate you for all the trouble we are planning to hold some 2x funds hehe. More info on that will be posted later.

HUGE!

Tankers! We’ve just released a number of new features for Tanki Online, as well as several small, but pretty handy changes and fixes. Here’s what’s waiting for you in-game right now. Daily Mission Chains This major improvement to daily missions allows you to get additional bonuses for completing assignments on a regular basis. To get a reward, you need to complete at least one daily mission every day for 7 days. Once you complete this chain, you’ll receive your bonus and proceed to the next 7-day chain, at the end of which will be a bigger reward. If you break the chain by not completing a mission, the chain will be broken and you’ll have to start over at the beginning of the current chain. If you skip 2 days in a row, you’ll have to go back to the beginning of the previous week. You can obtain the maximum possible bonus by completing 4 chains in a row, that is, by completing a mission every day for 28 days. A completed chain will reward you with crystals or supplies, the number of which will depend on your rank, and on the number of chains you have completing in a row. Improvements in Chats You can now choose whether your direct messages to specific tankers should be displayed publicly, or kept private. Clicking on a player’s nickname in chat will bring up a context menu that will allow you to select the type of message you want to send. You can choose the options “Write privately” or “Write publicly”. Alternatively, you can place “:” (for private messages) or “;” (for public messages) after the player’s nickname. You can distinguish private direct messages from public ones due to the difference in color — private messages are highlighted in a brighter green. Additionally, the nicknames of banned players in chats will be shown as regular text, without any highlighting. Default text for gifts from banned players Since the introduction of in-game gifts, some tankers have been abusing the custom messages feature to insult other players. This issue has been resolved with the update. If a player is banned, his custom gift messages will be replaced with a standard message. Changes in chat links mechanism In order to increase the level of account security in chats, we’ve changed the way links work in TO’s chats. Safe links (battles, links to TO Wiki, help.tankionline.com and so on) are available at a single click. Links that are in the blacklist will remain masked as before. In all other cases, you can click on a link, but will first see a message informing you that we cannot guarantee the security of the target destination, and that we highly recommend you do not enter your login or password on it. Suspicious battles for moderators Battles with 2 or more tankers playing from the same IP will be highlighted with a special color for the game’s moderators. This way, helpers will be able to quickly react to cases where a player is breaking the rules, and promptly deal with sabotage and power-levelling. Smaller changes and fixes The update has also brought several smaller improvements to Tanki: Dirty and Swash paints now have a different number of micro-upgrade steps The notification for cancelling early termination in DM battles has changed In addition to all that, our best minds keep doing their utmost to solve the issue of increased lags, poor game stability, and external interactions with the game’s servers. These will be solved as quickly as possible. That’s all tankers! Enter the game right now to check out the changes for yourselves. Good luck!

Our customer service had to stop refunding lost crystals. This was done to to a huge growth in the number of fake reports on lost funds. We are currently looking into the issue, doing our best to solve it. In the meantime, follow the advice and play shorter battles. I know it's a workaround, but it's the best thing you can do atm. We are doing our best, believe me. Should get better soon.

Tankers! V-LOG episode 81 looking sharp and reporting for duty! In this episode, you’ll be getting a full report on present and upcoming promotions, as well as some expert advice on how to dominate CTF on the Silence map. And while we’re on the topic of combat, we’ll also be announcing a rather unusual one. If you’re curious, you’ll have to watch the V-LOG, but if you want a hint, let’s just say it could involve “pretty”, but the only pretty thing about these tankers is that they deliver a “pretty solid beating” when you come up against them in the arena. So, jump right into this episode of the V-LOG. It’s waiting below. Question of the Week Send your videos here

You need to wait till you are invited to the closed test, or till the open test starts. We were facing certain technical difficulties with the game last week or so, but not it's better and we'll start sending out more invites soon. You might get lucky, who knows.

We are actually happy with how this things works and will be doing more activities related to pop culture stuff. So, expect a Ratman vs Hiperman event lol

Happy to hear you didn't face any lags. Sadly, not everyone's as lucky as you are. We are doing our best to solve these issues, lots of resources are now allocated at increasing server stability and decreasing the workload. Moving there slowly yet steadily, thanks for support. Man, I honestly have NO IDEA where this conclusion of yours comes from. We continue launching updates in TO, we hold promos and events, hell, I even think we are doing more things than we used to. As for starting from the beginning, etc., no specific info on that yet. I once said that there will either be a transition, or we'll be handing out some juicy goodies to those who moves to TX from TO. One of these two things will certainly happen.

Was planning one for the Iron Days today. Should be interesting... :ph34r:

Just took 50k from the "winner" and sent them to It_Is_Time_To_Win. I am really sorry for the inconvenience. We'll pay extra attention to picking the video next time. We might even rethink the whole idea of Video of The Week, because lately we've been facing more and more stolen videos. Once again, I am sorry.

Tankers! Anything with the number 80 on it can sound pretty ancient. But with 80 episodes under its belt, our V-LOG is as young and energetic as ever!

Additionally, we’ll be giving you a preview of what you can expect in this year’s traditional Iron Days sale! Of course, the episode also includes pro tips, video of the week, and other entertaining bits and pieces. So, stop reading and start watching this new V-LOG right now!

Tankers! As of today, Tanki Online includes a long-awaited feature for many players — the option to completely disable gold boxes in a PRO battle. Deactivated gold boxes means they will never appear on the map. This will be balanced out by a slight increase in battle fund growth. The update is mainly aimed at those who are not interested in gold boxes and want to focus exclusively on combat.

Tankers! If you were in our offices right now, you might be wondering why we’re all wearing fancy, red spandex suits. No, it’s got nothing to do with the fact that some of us are a bit hard to look at (well, maybe just a little bit). The truth is, red hides chimichanga stains really well. What’s that you say? You too love chimichangas and red spandex? Well, then you’re going to love the two brand new, time-limited gifts we’ve prepared for you! Item 1: The “Red Suit” paint, with 40% protection against Vulcan and 30% against Isida. Both protections can be MUed to 50%. The paint is available from the rank of Colonel. Those who purchase it during the event, will get to keep it forever. The best thing about it? It’s not green and animated. Item 2: The “Chimichanga” gift — a fine example of Mexican cuisine, and also the favorite dish of the craziest super-hero ever. A word of advice… don’t drive your Firebird after eating Mexican food; the results could be… explosive. Excited? Then it’s time to get going, because these special in-game items will only be available till 02:00 UTC on March 4. If there’s someone on your naughty list, now’s the time to squeeze your tank into spandex and shoot ‘em right up main street. Cue the music!

Tankers! What’s that in the air? Is it a bird? Is it a plane? Is it a gold box? No… it’s… LOVE. That’s right, Valentine’s day is almost here, love is in the air, and as always, we’ve got a whole bunch of goodies coming at you! Starting from 02:00 UTC on Feb 14, till 02:00 UTC on Feb 15, we’ll be having a special holiday paint and themed billboards, Gold Boxes worth 3000 crystals, and 3 themed gifts. Valentine Card Price: 1 000 crystals Cupid Price: 2 000 crystals Golden Harpoon Price: 10 000 crystals And to make sure everyone is spreading the love, we will be rewarding the 10 tankers who receive themed Valentine’s Day gifts from the largest number of players! The prize for each of the winners, will be an amount of crystals equal to the total number of crystals spent on all the themed gifts sent to this person. Winners will be announced and rewarded on Monday, February 15. Additionally, there will be a 90% discount on the ‘In Love’ paint, as well as 25% bonus on top of every crystal purchase (DCC bonuses included). Here’s how that will work: Buying a 45 000 crystals pack (30 000 + 15 000 bonus) without a DCC you get:the 30 000 crystals you paid for the 15 000 crystals from the package bonus 11 250 crystals promo bonus (25% of 30 000+15 000) Total = 56 250 crystals Buying a 45 000 crystals pack (30 000 + 15 000 bonus) with a DCC you get: the 30 000 crystals you paid for the 15 000 crystals from the package bonus 45 000 crystals from Double Crystal Card 22 500 crystals promo bonus (25% of 30 000+15 000+45 000) Total = 112 500 crystals But the goodies don’t end there. In less than 2 weeks, starting February 23, we’ll be having our traditional 4-day Iron Days sale, packed with double battle funds, discounts on paints, hulls and turrets, and even more unique in-game gifts! This will be followed by Women’s Day on March 8, which will be celebrated with a 3-day sale on micro-upgrades. So, this Valentine’s Day, have fun playing TO and make sure you prepare for all the discounts and promotions coming during the Iron Days and Women’s Day celebrations!

Let's see if someone understand your joke :D

Tankers! Looks like another week has rushed by and it’s time to make way for a fresh new episode of the V-LOG! In episode 79, we’ll be telling you about the updated, overhauled and reworked new version of the early battle termination system. There’s also some great news about the upcoming Valentine’s Day celebrations and goodies. Additionally, Maksim, one of our Community Managers, will be sharing some important tips on how to keep your account out of harm’s way. Check out episode 79 of the V-LOG right now!

Tankers! We have just brought back the system for early battle termination — this time, reworked and improved. Players can now split the funds for battles with an obvious outcome a lot quicker than before, without having to wait till the end of the round. This is how it works: If the winning team has twice as many players as the losing team, or more, the standard timer will be replaced by a special one with less time on it. Once this special timer runs out, the battle will end. If the number of players in the losing team returns to being more than 50% of the opponent's, the early termination is cancelled and the battle continues as usual. Example: The system will get triggered in a battle where a team of 10 tankers is beating a team of 5 or less tankers. If the losing team gets a 6th player, the early battle termination will be cancelled. The updated system also works for DM battles. In this case, it will get triggered when there’s only one player left in the battle. As before, tankers will be able to enable or disable this system in PRO battles, inside the battle settings menu. Enter the game right now and check out the updated early battle termination, and of course, share your opinion on it in the Tanki forum! IMPORTANT: This update is not final — it might be adjusted or completely reworked based on the data we get from analyzing the game, or thanks to the feedback we receive from the community.

Yeah man, I am lazy. So lazy that I am writing this at 1 am on Friday. :mellow:

It's not job there, I moved to Moscow for family reasons and is still working with Tanki, just remotely. Actually, this whole thing means I'll spend the time I used for stand ups and voiceovers on working with you guys, doing more community-related stuff. Should be fun! Exactly, always works this way.

An outsource guy. I'm still here hehe, just not in the V-LOGs. Before thinking this way, go check out my first V-LOGs. Those were terrible, then it started getting better and better. Same with this guy, the more we work with him the better his acting will be. And of course, the visual part of the V-LOGs will be developing too. Because I'm still alive and with Tanki? Yes, certainly, just a bit later. Around Feb 14 and 23. I'm sure you'll get used to it. And believe me, I'd love to be back as the presenter but I can't, geographically. Unless they build a teleport or I make my own studio in Moscow hehe Come one man! First, you'll get used to it. Second, we'll be improving his acting, speed of delivery, etc, to make it perfect for you. Give us a chance, come on!
