I hate to join the ranks of the TO haters, but they do represent a large portion of the customer base, and this dude is spot on here.

I agree. I think the hammer is pretty powerful, but I know the hornet is a little weak. I will save for april fools

If you have a good m1 that you like, keep that, and save your crystals and get a good m2 kit. if not, consider the isida, hunter kit that is currently on sale, and will be going on sale for a good price after the server restarts for womens day. twins and thunder are both powerful m1s, and will be fairly effective as you go to higher ranks, although the twins were fairly severely nerfed when splash damage was added

I have 170k crystals. I have been saving for a kit that contains smoky in it, but I do not have enough rank for the atlas kit. I can get the fireworks kit tonight for 115k, and I am wondering if it would be a good idea to get that, or wait until april fools, when I have enough rank and over 20k crystals to spend on whatever I want. My current equipment, is firebird m1 with 39 upgrades using either m1 hornet, or m1 mammoth. I also have twins m1

Glaze all the way!

I had been having less critical errors. until I watched todays VLOG, then I got one as soon as a gold dropped.

I was also wondering about what kind of celebration events there were when the new turrets were introduced a few years ago/ what kind of festivities there will be this time around (if you can talk about it)

I know, it even says that in my OP. I would be happy with that, but I am at a disadvantage with only m1 hornet and mammoth.. m1 hornet just doesent have enough armor to be competitive against something like m2 freeze/m2 hornet (everybody and their brother seems to have something along those lines) My other option, is to wait for the Artillery turrets release, and after testing it on at least one alt acct, and possibly the test server, get that, or something else if they have a sale to celebrate the turrets release

Would I be wrong to assume there will be some sort of sale upon the release of the new turret? can someone who has been around when they released the other new turrets give me a little insight?

LOL! how long does it take for the forum to catch up with my actual rank? the forum is still showing that I am second leutenant, but ingame, I am first leutenant

I just ranked to First leutenant, and I feel like it is definately time for a m2. My current loadout is mammoth m1, and hornet m1, with twins m1 and firebird m1 (firebird has 39 MUS) I am still doing OK in battles, but I do see my DL suffer, and it is getting harder to find battles that have more m1s than m2s, which puts me at a disadvantage. I have 157k cry currently, and if I continue at the rate I am currently making crystals, I am on track to have enough crystals to buy the fireworks kit outright before it is removed. I will have enough crystals to buy it outright, but I will not buy it unless it is on sale (Women's day falls on the day the kits expire) I Just ranked today, so it will be some time before I am the rank for a kit containing the m2 smoky. I am willing to wait, but I am getting impatient...

Tonight be a good night to install TANKIX

PING isn't usually an issue, although it is sometimes. we do get lags a lot where all the players freeze up for several seconds, and then everything happens at once in a split second. I was under the impression, that the PING would be roughly the same for all players on the same server. am I wrong here?

This update should really be done 3 hours later and start at 5:00 UTC basically, you are kicking off your entire North American player base during peak playing hours.

Perfect balance will never be achieved. This game is no more balanced than it was 4 years ago when I started playing tanki, but now, different turrets are OP, and some old fav's are weak now

Dictator shaft for fast XP, and dictator firebird for golds. I don't think there is an m1 kit for either of those, but there is my opinion

At your rank, Get Siberian kit. still effective at even my rank. after siberian, save for northerner.

About 120k

How is firebird m2? should I get firebird, of freeze? I have both m1, and like them both, but use the firebird since it has 39 upgrades (noob master sergeant mistake) I do know that the m2 freeze is cheaper, but if I get firebird m2, it will most likely be in a kit.

Out of the three, I would say rico. Thuner is good also.

I think I will buy a m2 kit during mr/miss tanki day, then save for Tanki b day

I have m1 twins, and am also considering the Minotaur kit. twins can be pretty OP, but I will probably get the no splash damage alteration if I get twins m2. Consider the Northerner kit as well. for me, it will be whatever is available during the next sale.

OK. I didn't read the fine print when I read the sale news this morning. I was hoping to be able to buy any kit when they went on sale. turns out, that all the kits (except mountain) are out of my price range/ rank, and I am kinda ticked off about it... I got in the garage and saw the hunter and hammer kit and I was STOKED. then I realized what was happening with the sale. I have been saving to buy a kit during this sale for a while. so here are my options. Do I get the mountain kit (never used vulcan, but I haven't been a big fan of it) Or get m2 freeze and hornet, or do I wait for a different sale when I have a higher rank, and more crystals to spend and buy a more expensive kit. Edit: I have 111k crystals

I didn't see any special missions on Valentines day either...

How long will they be down?
