Didn't listen. ← Just reacted differently. Add to the filter so we can filter out pro battles. At least show minimum and maximum rank range for the battle. eg, → Indicate the mode as in Summer, Winter, Night by the way of icons. Custom names need to return too.

Parkour.

When I click on EN1 to EN10, I find that sometimes the lists will be empty, void of life, which is a sad indictment in terms of player retention after players hit

Thanks. I have lots of them. I would have been playing for 2 years come the end of this month and I've seen a slow but steady progression of tanki devs trying to listen more to us and learning from past mistakes. I'm not sure the EN community carries much weight though. It's still very much a Russian game and I'm sure they will always come first in terms of game direction.

Sorting > Map Name > Battle Type > Duration > Time Remaining Do not sort Pro battles. Just indicate them normally. Add a space for custom name Add ranks allowed in the battle. May be even add a Sun, Moon, Snowflake for the modes Summer, Winter and Night. Highlight all games. Even the games where there is no space to join. If you take the highlight off games with no space then the layout looks blotchy. The numbers tell us when there is space. During battle creation, add a checkbox for parkour and xp battles. Add these to the list and display an icon in the same way for Pro Battles. Keep the filter and add to it. I would appreciate feedback from devs/staff/players.

Kill stealing has nothing to do with this. This system has nothing to do with the number of kills. It's based on score and time in game. You need a kick system if there is multing going on in your games. Maybe someone will suggest one!

They are entitled to their opinion. Even though I think the update is GENIUS, tanki should still listen to the concerns of shaft users here. Players paid for their turrets and micro-upgraded them for a reason. Some people spent lots of money without knowing their camouflage days were numbered.

I've been using 15.0.0.223 for firefox for a little while and it's been ok so far. HTH someone.

I love the night mode and it's a brilliant move by tanki. Let me say it again, BRILLIANT! Not sure about the Shaft laser though. From a non-Shaft player perspective I think it's a 10 out of 10, 5 star move by tanki but I'm sure if my only gun was a shaft I'd be moaning a bit.

Informative! It won't surprise you to know that I have a massive spreadsheet that helps me buy micro upgrades. It imports all the data from the wiki pages and then you have all the information on the main spreadsheet page necessary to help you micro upgrade. That said, it's purely designed for days when we have 50% of mu's and their speed-ups. Eg: You want to MU your M3 Dictator - How would I go about doing that? My spreadsheet tells me to micro upgrade these parameters normally without using speed-ups. Protection 5/25 Top_speed 2/11 Turning_speed 5/25 Weight 7/25 Power 5/25 The next step would be to wait for sales but you need patience for that because 50% off of both Mu's and their speed-ups are becoming rarer. On this day, make use of the whole day by upgrading early as you can without buying speed-ups but only do this when the Speed-Up time is a lot less than a day. If you have the crystals, it's then time to go click crazy! Micro Upgrade all you can including speed-ups but leave the most expensive speed-up 'til last. In the above case, it would be Top Speed at 12,225crys. I generally don't buy that last one and I let it time out. Once timed-out, I unwrap my shiny m4 and enter a battle only to flip upside-down or something cos I'm a big noob :lol: Doing it this way, I'd save just shy of 200,000 crystals than if I was to buy each upgrade in turn without their speed-ups. Obviously, if you can take advantage of x2 double crystal cards and 50% of paypal or visa at the same time then potential savings can be enormous. As Kirby2008 points out though, some of the mu's you can buy don't give you a huge advantage for the price but sometimes, a small advantage is all you need to be victorious!

Thanks Kirby2008 for the interview. :D @AbsoluteZero @Canadian_Eh

A lot of thought has already gone into a kick system here.

Turret Names Disperser, Diffuser or Bert.

50% off all hulls in the game — from 9pm UTC on Nov 27, till 9pm UTC on Nov 28 Good FREE speed-ups on all micro-upgrades — from 9pm UTC on Nov 28, till 9pm UTC on Nov 29 Without 50% on the micro upgrades, this is a practically worthless offer. TRIPLE Battle Funds for 2 days — from 2am UTC on Nov 29, till 2am UTC on Dec 1 And triple mults! Congrats on the award.

^^ Ali714717 saboteur-like score for that rank. He did you no favours.

Mutual admiration society!

First game since the update. I joined very late and was up against a strong side but I went to help someone on my friends list. Even though a beating was always on the cards, L.ALEXSANDR running around aimlessly in his wasp and green paint didn't help the cause. :( With this update, I got 64 crystals more than usual. Kick system please!

Continue to listen to them and try to address their concerns, even if you don't agree with them. The message I'm getting lately is Tanki is listening and wanting honest negative feedback. If there are that many negatives then try to do right by them instead of discouraging them. That said, I like what I've read in the update with the exception of 30 minute battles. Some battles only really get going after 30 minutes!

I didn't think of it. Not sure who did but it was canadian_eh who mentioned it to me.

Not necessarily. Battle funds have been boosted because there are no crystal drops, correct? More chance of a gold box, correct? Combined, you will find an increase of battle sabatage to acquire gold boxes and increased battlefunds. The more these two things increase the more worthwhile it is to have organised cheating. The question is which has the biggest increase and I don't think you thought it through. I was on my first game yesterday in Massacre. It was a good battle fund, several thousand and we had about 5 v 5 in a 20 player battle, my side was leading. Within a minute it was 10 v 3 and I was one of those 3. Artificially boost one side with mults in order to get on to the other side and then quickly withdraw your mults to avoid getting reported. 3 v 10 = no chance and they secure the battle fund. The temptation is too great now. Bigger battlefunds mean more mults and sabotage. Yes, the players who are scoring should get the value of the crystals that would normally fall.

Mults and saboteurs are there and I'm sick of them. The number has not lessened after the update in my opinion. I prefer the longer battles. I don't know if you have a better account but can you honestly say there are no mults in generalisimo battles? I'm certainly not arguing for a return for 50 or 100 crystal boxes because that was ridiculous but tanki has to take note when I say putting it back to the normal crystal drops is more preferable to what we currently have which is mults joining to spoil games so their buddies can grab the fund others have worked so hard for. But I would not advocate the old way or this new experimental way. I'd like to see no crystal drops but that value instead being automatically distributed to the players who are contributing. This way, players on losing sides are at least getting something for their efforts and players there solely for crystals have to work for them. We'll never get away from mults and saboteurs without a proper kick system but this experiment was the wrong one. I hope they do more to test the best way of doing things. If they don't then they're extremely short-sighted.

What to do with the value of crystals normally dropped in the game? Current experiment raises the battle fund. Instead, automatically give the crystals to those who are contributing in the battle in real-time.

Bigger battlefunds mean more mults and saboteurs. Too many game spoilers now ensuring their pals on the other team win the battle fund. This is a bigger problem to me than the crystal grabbers.
