Yes, the defense Mod squad has been assembled and the conclusion: we shouldn 't complain because for one in the past they didn 't even have 40% let alone 50% discounts... Get your facts straight please. You can 't compare the past TO with the current one. At those times earning crystals was easier, equipment was cheaper and maybe most important: there was not such a thing as micro-upgrades. If there 's one thing that makes the life of a current Tanker even more expensive it 's micro-upgrades. And if others MU 'd their equipment and you didn 't than you will certainly have a harder time to earn those battle fund crystals. Facing OP Produkt kits is another factor that didn 't exist in the past TO. Don 't compare apples and oranges. In other words we need those big discounts a lot harder than the Tankers from the past. To make matters worse, we had the cutting down of the Daily Mission Rewards and I 'm no fool, I know that it happened. You can call it "mini-missions to make life easier for starting Tankers" or whatever: the fact is I 'm not a beginning Tanker and most of the time I now get with combined rewards, less crystals than I got from the former free Daily Gifts. And now the next blow: Tankers Day without anything special than Doubled Goldboxes. No sale on other things like micro-upgrades which I and many more higher ranked Tankers were expecting, and a cut down of 10% on the "standard" 50% discount on equipment on Tanker 's Day. Granted it 's still 40%, but you call that a good marketing strategy? The final blow is in the making. TO Unity and the account transfer: or more likely IMO the non transfer. Yes, Happy Tanker 's Day!

Yes, I wanted to MU too: we MU, I MU, they MU....but definitely not this sale. :( And micro-upgrades on New Years sale? Better not get your hopes to high, I 'm at least going to MU some steps even though it 's full price. At least they made the mistake? to make the first Daily Missions rewards extremely rewarding. Took full advantage of them knowing it wouldn 't last long. I think I need to try to look now at those earnings as MU crystals.

:D :D :D Wear it with pride! :P

Yes, one of the few that keeps true to himself. Respect. There are some mods, that if I would really speak my mind I would be banned for a looong time. Used to be guys who I admired when they were pre-mod and still owned an independent mind about TO. And than, assisted by a whole bunch of free crystals, suddenly everything TO does seems to be magic and wonderful to them. Loyalty is understandable and needed, but there 's no need to shut down on common sense and especially truth. Well, any Mod out there who think this is a great Tankers Day and cares to defend it? :P

Illuminati Crisis confirmed. After cutting down the rewards of the Daily Mission, in which they often become less than the free Daily Gifts we used to have, now this years Tankers Day. For two years it has been 50% sales on almost everything, now we get 40% and NO discount at all on supplies, passes and worse micro-upgrades/speed-ups. <_< No double battlefunds which are good for everyone, no the icing on the cake this year is one day of Doubled Goldboxes...wow! Even the sales on crystals is lousy compared to the 50% sales we used to have... :D Well, don 't care personally. They can give 90% discount on crystals: not interested.

I believe you, but it seems to be that the lower ranks get better rewards, as a percentage of your rank, than the higher ranks. So the lower ranks are probably still getting around 50% while the higher ranks get lower rewards. I also despise those low supply rewards (very often filled with speed boost and mines). The ones I get are about the same as you got in the picture. Double worthless: the number and kind of supplies. Ofcourse there 's sometimes a good reward, like they used to be. But that 's mostly one of the three Missions, so combined it 's still less.

First time that I even forgot to claim a Reward, that 's how "good and worthwhile" they are nowadays. <_< So only two missions today. The first being the best. 4 mines and 5 speed boosts! Hope I don 't forget to collect this great Reward as well! Can 't even complain about the second one: I had worse. On my other alt account I had one truly good mission with 1500 crystals reward. The other two "Rewards" were the repeating current version of TO 's interpretation about being fair towards it 's players... What often happens is that I get somewhat agitated and click away such a noob Reward to get a better one. First time for free, next time it does cost me...the free click gives me a noob supply mission so let 's try again.... and yes another speed boost reward....better click it away which costs me 750 crystals and... get a very low double armour and double damage Reward in return: but I definitely have to fight for it to get it so in the end what 's the use? And the other low supply reward is worthless as well so let 's hope there 's finally a nice crystal reward behind it... and what do you guess?....no, after clicking away that one I end up with another low supply reward.... so much for the 50% chance on a crystal Reward...guess I 'm a bit unlucky nowadays! The joke is that the above story now means that I 'm going to play for some lousy supplies and zero crystals, because I just clicked away that good 1500 crystal reward in the idle hope to get something worthwhile. You could argue that you shouldn 't click more reward changes than the one that 's for free every day, but that would leave me with Missions that combined are lower than I got with the free Daily Gifts. And don 't forget: Daily Gifts were free. The supplies you got were 100% yours for free. Now with the Rewards you got to fight for them and this will cost you some supplies as well. Thanks Tanki for your generosity, honesty, openness and the rewarding Daily Missions: The way you handled this sure promises a lot for the transfer of our accounts to TO Unity.

:D I was thinking about my desktop: don 't want to hurt other people though! (so now I will try to find a second-hand laptop)

Yes, if you like an allround gun which can play all gamemodes and Maps. Can defend, attack, snipe, support etc. but simple isn 't/can 't be the best choice if you are a more specialized player. Mount it on whatever hull you prefer: again it will do a good job. Smoky will do fine without DP, but it becomes a mass killer if you do use them. Only requires good aiming skills on heavy hulls, and well developed driving skills and good tipping technique on medium and especially light hulls. Personal opinion: most fun with light hulls. Totally depends on your game style. Can 't give you an answer.

100% agreed! like a real machinegun, that can only fire straight in short salvo 's. Prolonged firing will just mean shooting up in the sky. To make this possible, they consequently should shorten the spin up and spin down time, or Vulcan would be unusable. Would make it a "smarter" weapon as well, because you can 't just keep on firing till overheating. TO will not like this idea I think, because Vulcans together with Twins are afaik the largest repair kit consumers. 150 crystals each if undiscounted: so they are vital for the economy.

No, I don 't think they will make it available to more browsers in TO Flash (the current version) cause it 's hard or not programmable at all in those browsers. TO Unity on the other hand will be much more a Standalone client game, so you won 't use browsers anymore or at least a large group won 't use a browser anymore. In a Standalone client as Unity it 's much easier to implement mousecontrols and I guess even vastly improve it. As it is now, it 's much better to use keycontrols: if you are planning to play Tanki for a long time.

Good choice! :)

Nope, they were not announced. Really bad updates don 't get announced...just implemented.

Even if they couldn 't transfer the garage: a compensation is always possible. I feel it will go like @artty77 says: "The decision will be made, after testing the new game and the economy. Simply said - if the majority of the players, refuse to start from a scratch, and stay on the Flash, the developers will have to reconsider and grant us a transfer. If they get enough people on the Unity, who don 't care about all this, then, I 'm sorry guys, all the time you 've spent, as well as your hard earned money we 've payed, are staying within a slowly dying out Flash version."

Yeah, I know who you probably mean: is it that Trumpet_ftw guy? ^_^

:D

Oops, I though that you had access to these rank limits. :mellow:

If it 's allowed? Yes plz!

Just ignore the nub... -_-

...almost everything, that is

That Viking/Shaft at 1:10...first a Thunder shot, than a mine and finally a Shaft shot in it 's right side...poor guy! :D (with a nice explosion circle underneath the exploding hull)

^

...and most Tankers just keep ignoring the Big Elephant in the Room...the irony...till reality will set in... :P
