You are right...I appologize to you, Devs! Y'all are awesome!

Looks like MAGNUM will be good for fast tanks since the knockback is very low...

"Test the upcoming shotgun turret!" Yeah...about that...

Server restart! Wooo!

How did you get on? What server are you going to?

Good idea...there could even be an application process to keep out trolls...last time I went on the Test server trolls were everywhere :/

Yep. Hopefully this time it works ;) I want to try out the Magnum... :P P.S. I KNOW IT IS NOT CALLED MAGNUM! Magnum sounds cooler though...

We cannot...yet. The test server is bugged for us too :/

WHAT?! They are human? :O JK XD Yeah...let's hope they fix it before I have to go to my 3rd period class XD

Don't worry guys! They will fix the test servers! Hopefully...

Why is the test server so buggy?!

No offense intended, but why dont y'all just come back? You only have a few anyway, and I have already started recruiting more for LA... We need you guys! If you want to re-join, post on our page and post on here that you have rejoined LA. Thank you! :D

Agreed. Would like your post, but I ran out of likes I can use for the day...who knew?

I already move to another position after I shoot... -_-

I agree STRONGLY! Granted, the new lazer update will help new players from quitting shaft (or will it?) early on because of the wobble, but then how will the bad players be weeded out from the good ones??? I pride myself on my shaft skills (with wobble) and if you get rid of wobble, you will be taking the skill out of Shaft. You will also be nerfing it, as the lazers now make Shaft weak compared to Railgun (since rails can poke out easier and don't have lazers or wobble). Please, please, PLEASE put Shatf back the way it was!!!! I have already noticed a small drop in fps (a large one with many shafts on a map-->I have a slow PC) and have noticed players who are good on other weps come to shaft and get obliterated since they are spotted so wuickly. LAST THING! Before the lazer, one could use Shaft as a deterent more effectively. For example, A rail gunner is below you, but neither one of you can shoot. You then can look straight and pretend to be in sniper mode and then shoot. He/she will think you have shot full power, and by the time it takes them to come up the hill, you have charged your shaft and destroy them. With the new lazer update, you cannot do this, which MAJORLY nerfs Shaft (as it is a tactic I use all the time). PLEASE consider my request, and remove the lazers. Tank you for your time XD P.S. LOVE the new night mode ;)

I STRONGLY disagree with your idea of causing pro battle to be the only way to have private battles... I am a relatively low rank, and I love participating in private battles, especially with my clan members. If I have to start paying 500 crystals for each training battle my clan takes part in, I would have to leave my clan, because I do not have the money to do this constantly. Your comment on how only "pro" players use it anyway are false. I have been participating in private battles sense Corporol. Also, private battles are supposed to be a fun way to interact with your friends, but if you make them pay 500 cry for each private battle, do you really think they would come? Most of them already don't join as is, and YOU WANT TO MAKE IT COST MONEY!?!?! My vote: A VERY strong "NO!"

Too epic. XD

If you guys want to discuss the new update to Shaft, you can come here! :D http://en.tankiforum.com/index.php?showtopic=233498

What are your thoughts regarding the lazer they may implement on the shaft? Is it a way to better balance the game or does it nerf Shaft too much? My opinion: It nerfs shaft too much. My explanation: Shaft is supposed to be a stealthy weapon, after all, it is a sniper (usually). If Shaft had a lazer on it, players would target shafts MUCH more, allowing them easier kills. There are already some major disadvantages to using shaft: once you are sighted in, someone can EASILY sneak up from behind and kill you AND shaft has a relatively low DPM when in arcade mode AND Shaft has a very slow turret traverse speed. Another disadvantage to the implementation of lazers on Shafts would be the lag increase. For many people, the lazers would not be a problem, but for people with old or low-end computers (like me), having lazers moving all across the battlefield would lower our FPS to almost nothing (I already have trouble getting 25 frames on Monte Carlo with only 4 or so people on the map and on large maps like Temple Ruin, I barely can get 5 frames with no one on). So please, do not implement lazers. Last thought: if you add lazers to Shaft, you would also need to add them to other long range weapons such as thunder, railgun, and even smoky so that it would be more fair...but then that would increase the problems stated above and would actually buff short range guns (in a way). I hope my thoughts have helped out the Tanki Community in some way. Thank you for your time. -Music_Cat

Hello. This is my first post on the forums, and hopefully people/staff will see it and take action to it. The issue is this: /vote ingame does not work/is not effective. I have been in many games where teamates will use their rail or shaft to topple players on their own team (mainly wasps like me and hornets). Then I (along with people on both teams) will /vote the player, and no staff will show up, even after 10 or more minutes. I realize that the staff probably have a lot on their plate, but there is no excuse. If the staff are overwhelmed, get more staff. Let it be known, I am not trying to bash the staff on Tanki Online! The staff I have seen (mainly on the forums) are awesome, and I absolutely LOVE Tanki Online! All I am saying is that there has to be a way to make in-game /votes more effective. I have reported probably over 15 players for disrupting/undermining the team, and they have NEVER been addressed. I hope this thread will help the Tanki Community to become even more awesome and keep the violators and hackers out. Thank you for your time. -Music_Cat
