Nooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooo they closed testing! The new site needs a code! Why, Seymon, why?

Come on devs. I know tanks in real life accelerate slowly, but this is just out of the ball park. Not even close. Take a look at an M1 Abrams tank. It does not, I repeat, does NOT, start out like it's underwater. I'm probably gonna get banned for this, but Tanki, this is just pathetic. Why would you even bother trying this out?

Well, the main thing I found out is that acceleration is incredibly, incredibly slow.

This is really weird. I made a new account for my self on test 7. It was called test7_Unstoppable. When I logged on, it was randomly a major and had a zillion friends. Any idea how this happened? I'm gonna make another account to see what happens... Same thing what the crap. Mammy M2 lol.

I know this all, I've done open testing before, but I'm telling you, they aren't working. Log on and try it yourself.

Sigh... It didn't work.

Can any forum mods tell me what happened to the chat commands please?

Anyone? Why aren't chat commands up? I want to get Smoky M3.

What the heck!!!! The chat commands aren't working! Hellllllllp!!!!!

Why is my test account unable to do anything? It seems to be permanently lagging or something... Now when I got to main test server site, it tells me only 8 is up and running, rather than 4, which you told me to go to... And if anyone wants to test battle, I'm test7_Lag101. At least it's working.

Excellent job. This is a useful, well done set of charts. I agree that TO seems to be trying to make people buy crystals in the upper ranks, but I like Railgun/Hornet, and that combo is below average price on M2-3. It's almost like TO is introducing ideas not for better gameplay, but simply to generate more profit. Before the rebalancing, everything was very cheap. Afterwards, the price on everything skyrocketed, so more people are buying crystals who otherwise would have saved up on they're own. If the micro-upgrades come into existence, it will cause even more people to buy crystals. Who knows what they'll think of next? Kip Had to fix a few typos.

The devs should do this for turrets, and more often!!

I know exactly what you mean. There was a Dictator M2 with Rail M1 on Blue Silence and he kept randomly drugging and charging. The whole Red team used up their drugs trying to keep him out, but he must have had hundreds of each. There probably isn't much anyone can really do.

... Where's your proof about the room?

XD (facepalm) That Youtube video was ridiculous

On Silence there's a ledge where Reds can camp with a lot of mines covering the entrance. I blew up like 10 Isidas trying to get me and shot 6 more. The Blue team was getting so pissed off. Eventually they got an M1 Ricochet to come and kill me XD.

Are you sure about the pre-RB Hornet? I'm pretty sure they were faster than Wasp M3's.

I use Railgun and Firebird M1. I like medium-large maps, but Combe is fine. I only battle in TDM, CTF, or CP. The problem with Wasp is that Railgun recoil can flip it over on a ramp, so I usually use the Hornet. Another problem is that Wasp can get spun around easily by high-recoil weapons, like Railgun, Thunder, Twins, and Ricochet.

The problem with Thunder is that the damage diminishes ridiculously with range, so it's best at medium range...

O_o I need a tank like that. What paint is that?

Er, that Firebird is M1...

I kind of think the MU's are a joke. I mean, they just did an RB a while ago, and now they're going to unbalance it again except in a different way. Basically, the people who pay money for crystals are going to have a monster advantage over the ones like me who don't. People who don't pay for crystals can't really afford to keep clicking the "Try Again" button, or the "Speed Up" button over and over, because they know they can't just get more instantly. Tanki Online is trying to half-force you into buying crystals, because they know you aren't going to leave your PC sitting there for 25 hours while it upgrades when you can pay money and click the button. You guys can tell me that I don't have to buy MU's, but that still won't change the fact that people who do buy them are going to kick everyone else's ***'s all over the map. Even if I do only max one MU, the chances get ridiculously small when you get close to the end. In testing, I burnt through 100,000 crystals maxing my Railgun's damage. If they do pass these into the game, they need to speed the slider WAY up. OK, rant is over, but I still hope they cancel these.

I completely agree with that. Railgun is the best weapon. Twins are second in a tie with upgraded Smokies (used to use Smoky to good effect before RB, not so much afterwards...).

I kinda of agree with you on those points. The micro grades are terrible on the testing server. Burnt through 200,000 crystals filling my Twins. I'm not sure what exactly you mean by that...

I like Hornet for the speed and agility, but I'd have to say the Viking is the best overall hull. Remember, Hornet is a light tank, and Viking is a medium, so it depends on what type of battle tactics you operate with. Personally, I like Hornet better but my kdr's are better with Viking (this is with a Railgun).
