thanks MrAmazingKiller

i have only heard of him from videos and the forum....never seen him in battle or in a server...a computer genius maybe able to find out who he is....you know like sci fi movies, if you see him in battle, i am thinking the computer genius could trace and find out which IP he is playing from, locate who uses that IP....maybe a computer genius whose dad is in the FBI or CIA or any other intel agencies of the world....but is it worth the effort to track him down and find his identity...so what if we find out who he is....its not like we get free crystals or any other prize for finding his identity...he is just another guy like you and me sitting somewhere using a tank that has been blessed with 99% protection from everything...remove that feature and he is just another dude...he is definitely a tanki staffer...my bet is on the CEO...Alex Karpovich

oh my....what happened to isida in the rebalance....this is awful...i had an upgraded M2 izzy...prior to rebalance...it was like a king...now its a joke...even with drugs...cos obviously if you drug, the other side drugs too and then you are under powered all over again...i had plans to buy this as my first M3....that's not going to happen now unless there is another rebalance to restore some of isida's lost glory..in fact, i am going to hold off playing isida altogether until another rebalance

the advice you guys gave me yesterday gave me my most epic result in my tanki history using m2 fire m2 hunter...thanks a lot

sale....bought m2 fire m2 hunter double funds....check this out

my best result so far in my tanki career came today after i bought m2 fire m2 hunter in the sale...battle fund 74464...and i came first....the other team had 1 kit buyer who was the leader with M2 mammoth n twins and was assisted by 3 other mammy twins, 2 freezes and thunders...we had a good mix of everything and played like a team....major drug war but we won against the big bullies...i was lucky...i was assisted by my good team but heh....m2 fire....798 kills vs 393 deaths....that is one epic battle i wont forget for long

HaloScorpion, Raphael2, DiSoRderLY....thank you guys for the timely advice...i bought M2 Fire with M2 Hunter today...results from the first battle...my friend "Smollet" was playing m2 fire with m2 hornet....so i guess post rebalance, hornet has got nerfed a bit which affects that combo...of course,this is only until i get to colonel....there is no question that M2 WASP is the best with firebird...IMO

i have always used wasp or hornet with it but the HP was always a bother even with drugs plus getting flipped way too easily....i have never played hunter till now but the extra HP is very tempting....it would be good if someone already has used M2 Hornet/Firebird as well as M2 Hunter/Firebird combo and shares their experience....i dont play DMs....just TDM and CTF style of play....mostly attacking

is M2 firebird better with M2 hornet or M2 hunter after latest rebalance....urgent advice needed before sale tomorrow...thanks

i dont hate WOs..some of them are really good...i am a major now...quite a low rank and i rose from WOs myself so i know the pain you feel at lower ranks....but there is 1 thing WOs can do to avoid the feeling that noone likes them...join battles that have lower rank limits....like for instance a WO1 should not go to a battle beyond WO4 or WO5....WO2 should not go beyond third lieutenant, WO3....first lieutenant and so on...playing within that range gives you a fighting chance to play well with weapons available at your rank and doesn't make you cannon fodder see example in the screenshot of a battle i just came from see the 2 WO2s....they shouldn't have entered this battle...the guy on my team died 10 times without a single kill and the guy on the other team died 14 times and got 1 kill...actually these 2 guys changed the battle around in my favor....the guy on my side would be an easy kill and come in the way of the enemy team's leader who has a M2 isida M2 hornet and give me a few precious moments to steal the flag from his base and get a few kills to my name...for that matter, i don't think the third lieutenant should have joined either...

i think you have a good policy....some stalkers are really irritating when they stick to you during the battle and then kill steal....

i get the feeling 50% discounts are going to be a rarity...although i have to say IMO it doesn't feel good to have bought more crystals with real money for a 50% discount just a few days back because of the promise for future sales and then giving us 25% discount...i think last year was more fun and festive

Playep: I see Trust_No_One is on your friend list...he was on my friend list until yesterday when he started to act smart and ganged up on me with his other friends 3 v 1....then he apologized and joined another battle and left mid way and joined the other team and started to only target me...when i felt he was stalking all the games i was moving to and trying to disturb my gameplay, i took him of the list...just be aware

congrats buddy...we played earlier today Silence CTF

i read some posts previously on the forum including guides that said you should ideally only stick to playing within your rank group and not join high rank battles....in this case, these guys joined and ganged up on us... Anyways...i am thinking of changing my nickname to firestarter....i just love this bird...another battle today to encourage firebirders..the opposite team left 15 mins into the battle...again high rankers....we ended up playing amateur parkour on highland trying to get my firebird as high as possible....check out the results for my 1 wasp 1 firebird...cant wait for the sale to get my M2 fire

who said low ranks cannot fight and win against high ranks - especially when i used m1 wasp m1 firebird and then changed equipment to m1 wasp m2 isida...no drugs....check out the result..oh and we were 3, they were 4...sweet

I have always been a firebird user....for me this update works very well since it balances the very 2 turrets that were a bother for me....thunder and freeze. I just joined a losing TDM and turned things around for my losing team....suddenly all the other players on the other team started to change equipment to firebird....not a clever plan...we won and i was top of the table ....what i love the most about this update as far as firebird is concerned...the afterburn....i have a feeling that there will be some reduction to this parameter soon....it does make my gameplay a little too OP for others....i have to play a lot to take advantage of this to gain crystals, rating and rankups while it lasts Check out this battle result below after the update - I used M1 Firebird M1 Viking in a 8 v 10 TDM and won top of the table....Firebird has been crowned King of turrets after this balance....until its nerfed in the future again

this was just too tempting and today I just switched over from being a non-buyer to a buyer for the first time....good thing I also got a double bonus crystal card as well....i hope the promised sale is a huge discount!

I bought NooBest just now

I hope Firebird will win the 50% discount

Ranked up to Major today exactly a month after I made captain! M2 Firebird....come to papa!

Just missed 50 kills in 15mins by a whisker....this is with M1 Firebird M1 Hornet....next sale, I am getting M2 Firebird M2 Hornet...can't wait to watch the fireworks then

This is a place where we can contribute our individual strategies/tips when we encounter druggers/kit buyers (irrespective of our own turret/hull combo). I am not a buyer and I was on the losing side of all the battles I have fought today because of some druggers/kit buyers..obviously this causes a lot of frustration especially when you have been playing for so long and then someone joins to spoil all the fun. Tanki survives on the real money spent by druggers/kit buyers but I hope this is a place where we can collectively pool our strategies/tips so we can fight against these tankers who have so much advantage with them. I guess we need tips for the following scenarios but feel free to chip in if you have come across others: 1. Buyer(s)/Drugger(s) join the opposite losing side when the battle fund is over 1k/2k crystals. 2. Buyer(s)/Drugger(s) join the winning team (yours) when the battle fund is over 1k/2k crystals and drug constantly to increase the score 3. Buyer(s)/Drugger(s) start the battle on your team till the battle fund is over 1k/2k crystals and then leave and join the opposite team and fight against you 4. Buyer(s)/Drugger(s) join the battle on your team and leave after a few minutes and then return on the opposite side with turret/hull/paint that negates the effects of your team's top scorer 5. Buyer(s)/Drugger(s) join the opposite losing side when the battle fund is over 1k/2k crystals and place dozens of mines all over the enemy base and flag area and then camp and wait for your teammates to leave out of frustration

Smoky M0 and Hunter M0 have some current micro update parameters requiring just 1 crystal for the first step. So, this sale means, that would be 0.5? I have never seen 0.5 crystals so far in Tanki life

If M1 Firebird M1 Hornet can do this in this company of ranks, cant even imagine the fun when I get M2 Firebird M2 Hornet next sale
