    Episode 57 of the V-LOG talks about the new Tanki

    It depends. It 's very hard to say whether an upgrade is worth it or not. Certainly a graphics card can be costly, but if the other components of your PC are not outdated you can give an enormous boost by adding a new one. Certainly if you are playing Tanki now with 2GB of RAM and you have a low fps it could be worth to get this to 4 GB. It 's not only Tanki that will benefit, but the whole system becomes faster. 2 GB is often slowing the computer down, certainly if you got some programs on the background running. Another reason to get lags and stuff. So always try to enter a Tanki server with only programs like anti-virus and others running that you really need. I quite often "clean" computers and I 'm always amazed at the amount of programs people allow to start up every time. My computer is so slow...duh! ;) Often those programs are not used at all, but still they are running, silently sipping the juice out of your processor/RAM. With 4 GB this at least becomes a lot less noticable because of the extra "working space" your PC gets. RAM really is cheap so it 's worth the try IMO.

    Nou, ik ben zojuist verwijderd van het Dutch forum vanwege een downvote. Een volwassener reactie was op zijn plaats geweest denk ik, maar @robbie56 jij bent de baas hier en als dat jou keus is dan is het maar zo. Van wat kritiek wordt je trouwens niet slechter hoor, krijg ik ook regelmatig en vaak leer ik ook er ook nog wat van. http://en.tankiforum.com/index.php?showtopic=268969&page=1&do=findComment&comment=4954810

    Sounds like a very good advice...so just don 't do it... :P

    Nope, I only downvote posts that are clearly asking to be downvoted. So I indeed didn 't read it: instead I heard that post asking for a -1. A request that was quickly granted! :) (to be clear for others that may read this: I 'm not talking about the first brilliant post that I upvoted also)

    Thanks for the downvote! :) (doesn 't make much sense though to give the next post from an upvote because it is a confirmation of my post afaik.) Reading your post I guess that TO Unity will contain much blue colouring in it. Imagine blue Goldboxes: you need some time to get used to that!

    It could be a Smoky that while enjoying the company of friends and some drinks, just took "bottoms up!" too literally.

    While I personally prefer gameplay with Thunder above Hammer, Jackhammer (as it is now) will be the better choice if you want to get good results.

    Still this noob is going to try Rico M3 with a Hornet M3. I guess that Hunter M3 is a better choice, I 'm using this OP combo on an alt. account, but Hornet is just stable enough and Hornet is great IMO when using hit and run attacks. I would go for the Titan. Just for the reason you can still move around a bit. Not much of a reason is it? :D

    Episode 57 of the V-LOG talks about the new Tanki

    Those aren 't huge game requirements at all. Most Tankers will have something like that and a lot will even have better equipment. If 4GB RAM would be a bottleneck on an older system, it is very cheap to upgrade this. In most computers it is possible to add more RAM. Use a program like Speccy (just Google and download it from the trusted site FileHippo) which kind of RAM is in your computer and if there is an empty slot, which will mean you can add a stick of RAM. Make sure you add exactly the same kind and amount of RAM or you could also replace the old one entirely with a new stick with more RAM on it. Warning: this is real basic info and you better inform yourself much more about this subject or go to a computerstore if it doesn 't make any sense to you! Adding RAM is the best and cheapest upgrade, certainly if your computer is lacking enough of it. The processor Intel Core i3 is adviced in combination with the integrated in the processor itself Intel HD Graphics 4000. If you happen to have an older processor you can most likely still make the game run smoothly by adding a dedicated seperate graphics card. (good chance there is already one, certainly in a desktop: again you can use Speccy to see exactly what it is) These are also often much better in performance compared to the "lousy" Intel HD Graphics 4000. And you don 't need that expensive graphic card. A cheap one will already outperform those integrated HD Grapics 4000! Here is a list of the graphics card hierarchy: http://www.tomshardware.com/reviews/gaming-graphics-card-review,3107-7.html Anything above the Intel HD graphics 4000 (the third almost empty column from the left) is better: as you can see that 's quite a list! :) I bet Flash puts more strain on our systems than Unity will do. Tanki really took Flash to it 's utter limits, that 's IMO why we have to wait so long before entering a battle. Especially on larger crowded Maps there are a lot of calcutions and data transfers that first have to be made. Unity games, also more graphic detailed ones, run smoothly and start almost immediately on my computer. No, in my opinion Unity games are "lighter" and so will Tanki Unity be.

    We would have quite a job on our hands for Bronze...no, don 't count me in... ;) And luckily we are quite safe from flooding Rico players: they even have a double amount of flooding to do if they want to climb a place on this list! :P

    It 's actually the number 4 on the Turrets and Hulls topic: 1. Thunder (5945 posts) 2. Shaft (5005 posts) 3. Railgun (4435 posts) 4. Smoky (4000 posts) 5. Ricochet (3115 posts) 6. Firebird (3070 posts) 7. Wasp (2930 posts) 8. Hunter (2685 posts) Turrets are clearly being more discussed/discussable. The most discussed hull being the nr. 7 Wasp with 2930 posts. Not bad for such a small hull and such a small turret! ;)

    Don 't we all have moments like that? I know I do and it 's good to think over how to improve your attitude. An excellent article/story like this can make you do so: plenty of serious content, enlightened with just the right amount of "pony". Well done!

    Pizza rank: you just have to endure it till Generalissimo. Good luck! ;) (thankfully your post came on the next page, so that page is still only filled with pretty Fieldmarshal ranks!) A buf on Smoky would be very nice, but knowing Tanki they rather buf nub equipment that 's already OP... Like they did with nerfing the Hornet: well, it 's still too popular! (maybe Hornet 's popularity has more to do with price and rank availability than anything else TO, but lets not discuss that... <_< ) So next time I do expect another buf for medium and heavy hulls. If so light hulls (Wasp included as a victim of Hornet 's popularity) will stay the same: effectively getting nerfed again.

    Absolutely. Thunders slower reload and the possibility to shoot them off-aim makes them vulnerable to Smoky. Rico instead is a turret that too often turns my sweet and beautiful Smoky dreams at night, into horrid nightmares! ;) That 's why I also often dream about Clay... btw: a whole page filled with that pretty Fieldmarshall rank..simply an awesome sight! :D
