great work but WAIT ... how could you have skipped the most annoying turret in the game, the one most likely to be powered by a brick on the space bar? TWINS. The mosquitoes of Tanki. Annoying even to other members of your team. Capable of making opponents and team members alike miss their railgun shots from a considerable distance. The most annoying sound in the game. Add three twins with spacebar brick to a tight map and nobody can see anything any more, blinded by multidirectional flying blue and green fireballs. Eagerly awaiting the sequel. EUPHO

He who hath ears, let him hear: "Noob" ..... translation in-game is "OMG YOU SHOT ME" "Drugger" ...... translation in-game is "WHAAAAAANNNNNNHHH" When somebody calls you either one, politely agree with them and keep killiing. Nothing infuriates them more. If you want to really honk them off, agree and then senselessly use a first aid kit right in their face.

There is no hope. Every team battle I join at this rank is infested, if not with organized raiders, then with teams of 2 and 3 drug monkeys on the phone with each other. Somebody told me just to get used to it, that it only gets worse the higher you rank. I suggested that maybe admin ought to just quit trying to promote fairness and rules and just go ahead and partner with Teamspeak and start posting game tips on creative ways to cheat in gangs. Thank goodness for daily missions, at least now I can score a few crystals without having to endure an hour of being spawnkilled by drugging Vik Ricos.

Please consider that every modification that is intended to level the playing field just adds one more wrinkle that can be exploited by drug monkey raiding party cheater teams who dont mind bending the rules concerning 'power leveling'. The white flag idea for instance is goofy ... you could join a battle as a mult and then immediately surrender. Your friends on the opposite team have one less player to worry about on your team. As to the current mod ... I predict certain maps will be seen as an easy mop-up for the raiders. On a related note, someone should look into the hack that allows one to join the majority team ... I have been in several battles lately where it went from 6-4 directly to 7-4 (for instance) while I was watching the leader board. If drugging, cheating and power leveling is the kind of behavior you wish to promote (perhaps it brings money into the coffers?) then forget the 'Rules' and start having cheating contests and award extra points to the best hackers. Sell hacks in the garage etc.

nothing was the matter at all, and yes what did. Why don't any of the characters on The Big Bang Theory play Tanki Online on TV?

Only if it is not mounted on a Wazp. Is Kevred's helmet really a pushbutton?

to add to what bash-o-matic said, another physical advantage to learning to drive backwards: you can reverse directions much faster than you can stop, turn around and drive back the way you came. Like for grabbing a flag real quick .... drive forward and grab it, immediately throw it into reverse without turning, and simultaneously hold down z or x to rotate your turret 180' as you are leaving so you can see. There's 2 important skills at work really. Driving backwards (which is very much like driving forwards except you have to swap the up and down arrow keys), and always turning your turret. I hardly ever use the C key any more, my turret is almost never centered.

That's the most ridiculous combo going in ANY direction. Reminds me of a chihuahua. :D

Trust me a video game is not a matter of worry for me - it's more like digust. I like your idea on merit but usually when I try another server there are no battles there either and when I make a new one, nobody comes to the party. I have had a bit more luck switching to a different language server set, like Brazil. The only problem is that in there I can't read any of the controls and just have to remember what they are in English. Sometimes I think that just about all the other players in Tanki now are part of a raid team. There are not too many mavericks left.

The answer to your previous question is "Not unless it is not". Do you need to speak with a Russian accent to pronounce "Alexandrovsk"?

Because there is no cat-flavored dog food. Is Isida "Is Uh Duh" or "Is See Duh"?

It's getting to the point that there are no more battles worth playing. At my current rank (Major) the game drops me into a server where I am consistently among the lowest ranks. The number of battles has sharply declined over the last 6 months to where some nights there are NO deathmatches at all on the 'preferred' server, and the team matches are dominated by covert squads of cheating drug monkeys just waiting for cannon fodder and exhibiting every form of cheat, hack and deception. If I open a new battle I sit in it alone for 15 out of the 30 minutes and then suddenly am overrun with raiders and find myself being blocked and pushed and having my shots spoiled by my teammates while the opposing team spawnkills me at every opportunity. The game is infested. If it was a restaurant the health department would shut it down. I don't see a solution unfortunately, but at least daily missions are now giving me an interesting and stimulating opportunity to recover part of my overall loss. If they back those out I will probably have to find me a new hobby.

for the same reason that flies tank. why do mults move?

Daily Missions are the greatest thing I have seen in Tanki since the Christmas map last year (bring it back please). Big shout out kudos to the developers for this excellent addition to the game. Make the drugger noobs work for their drugs, what a concept. I hope the dev team has some other tricks planned of this nature for the future ... any other merit-based opportunities to earn swag would be awesome. I would pay some crystals for an optional additional mission for instance. You could also add a few other facets of game play such as a mission for assists in TDM, or for passing a flag to a teammate in CTF etc. Thanks for all you do ... EUPHONIUM

Are you a boy or a girl? Should I buy Thunder? How old are you? BWAHAHAHAHAHA :lol: Keep on keepin on Dog ...... always with a refreshing POV. EUPHO

yeh specifically ... the first picture is the logo for 'tankionline' .... them a dot and the second picture is a 9-pin 'COM' port ..... so 'tankionline.com' ..... then a slash and a picture of a wasp. So the secret URL is 'tankionline.com/wasp'. Go there for next clue :) I found it interesting that this clue restricts the game to players with a Pro Pass ... you can't get back there in normal formats.

Bought M0, like it, it's strong and the turret rotation is awesome. 2 suggestions for improvement, both visual: 1. Hard to tell if opponent has been hit. If the enemy hull is sitting still it might twitch a little, that's the only clue. Contrast to Smoky or Thunder where you get a little fireball on the target that is visible for a long distance. 2. The puff of smoke is nice but could be puffier. In a heated battle sometimes I am not sure that I fired at all. Will probably buy up to M1 later after I get some M2's of other things.

Can't play Cologne map ... fps drops to near zero unless I am the only player in the map. This is the only map with the symptom. Casual conversations on chat discovered others with similar performance issue.
