I've been playing on this update for a while now, and I can safely say that yes, it is possible to play. However, the camera speed is jerky and unintuitive for me, especially when using a medium hull. Also, and more of a concern, I get horrible headaches. Not good.

A few words: Headache. Lag. Pain. Nausea. Missed Gold.

You and blackhawk were doing pretty well in that Arena CP for "unusable."

Is this true!?!??!?! IF so then Tanki is DEAD. Please, Yele, Semyon, SOMEONE tell me this isn't true!

If you have read the previous articles about the Unity version of the game, according to the plan, players will be able to transfer their account over to Unity along with their garage, rank etc.

As a player who exclusively uses keyboard controls, I got kind of used to this update, but it lags and I also get a headache that lasts quite a while. My controls have vertigo, almost. Like some have said, when used with M0 equipment, this update allows for more dynamic play, but when using anything past that, the precision required to place shots and time everything simply cannot tolerate this update because the camera drifts past the standard in-line-with-turret view for a moment, instead pointing in a slightly different direction. Either one wastes precious seconds waiting for the camera to return to normal while being a sitting duck for enemy fire, or they gamble with their shot, hoping it hits, but never having too much faith in their ability to pull off a shot so hampered by the controls meant to help. I think that if Mouse-Control users like this, then let this be a part of the game that is a part of the mouse-control option: if mouse controls are on, the updated camera speed will be on for the player's benefit. If mouse-controls are off, this setting will automatically be off, again for the benefit of the player base. Thank you devs for your work with Tanki, but take to heart what the vast majority of players say and remove this update! :D

I think it would be great if you reviewed some of the new kits, even the ones not used at high ranks.

This is screwed up....like my tank is high. It's tipsy. Please change it back to the old camera speed; I've had this problem before when playing Tanki on a computer I've never done it on before and it is simply abominable.

But not only do the burning times and damage increase, which fits with your theory, but so does the maximum temperature. Shooting for 7 seconds on Vulcan M0 should, according to your theory, heat a tank up as much as 7 seconds on M3. Obviously, it doesn't. (Check the wiki) M3s temperature threshold is far higher, which accounts for the increased self-damage. I can't see how this fits with your hypothesis, which accounts higher self-damage as being proportionate to shooting time before overheating.

I hope you do Stars, Stripes, Diamonds, Squares, assorted Polygons, Lines, and everything in between! If what I've seen here is representative of your other guides, I can't wait for guides for my rank! :wub:

Where's the "Stars?" (Brigadier-General guides)

Hammer. Get Hammer. It's amazing. Well, if you can get used to it. Glad to hear Hunter was good; I'll consider getting it at M2 instead of Viking.

Can we use other images as part of our paint? Not as the whole paint itself, but if I wanted to make a paint with crystals/GoldBoxes on it, I'd have a pretty hard time making some from scratch in MS Paint. Or if I wanted a paint with ranks on it or something, it would be well nigh impossible to make that without using the helpful forum topic with all the rank pics and putting them in my file. Just asking. Remember, not as the paint, but as part of the paint.

Thank you for the download link to the new Tankviewer; the only problem I had with the old version was that it was missing my main weapon (Hammer) and the new paints (I actually created my own Nano so I could see how it looked). A lot better now; thanks and best of luck to the contestants (including me :lol:).

Hilarious. Props to the late scythe for voluntarily going under the knife for the benefit of the paper. Well, he probably didn't know there was no anaesthetic....

"Hammer on Double Armour" Correction: Hammer on Double Damage

Yum....I feel the Railguns crunching beneath me as we speak....

Huh? Didn't get that first sentence. At all.

One wouldn't necessarily have to buy the speed-ups. For expedience's sake, of course, but with patience, this update still allows, in essence, a vanilla Freeze M3 at the bare minimum M2 rank (for an exorbitant price). I wonder how dueling with an M3/M3 combo would go over with my M1 friends....wish I had that many crystals! :D

So that someone can't get out of the way of your shots after you've fired. At least at M0-M2, the speed allows a skillful player on a light hull with nitro to avoid some shots quite well.

Once I was in an Atra CTF and there was only one enemy. One of our team (shaft-mammy) was protecting the 'ghosting' shaft-hornet of the other team so he could get his (very small) reward without being killed any more. The rest of us Hornets and Vikings climbed up on the Mammoth for fun, and I suddenly self-destructed. I spawned and drove back over, climbing back on the pile of tanks. I pushed some other tanks around (we were all driving on top of the pile) and I found that with sudden stops and running into them I could make them self-destruct! It was all in good fun and none of us were thinking about the reward (well, I wasn't) but it still is a glitch.

Nope. 'Nuff said. Especially Smoky reload time. :wub:

Smoky OP? No. Crits were decreased massively in the last balance, though admittedly regular damage got increased. However, I rarely see effective Smoky gameplay in battles at my rank anymore, though in higher levels it might be different. But this new reload time thing.... B)
