ping is ok, it's just the matter of fps, many other tankers complain about it too, maybe it's Rio's 'feature' ? btw. w7 is also here :D

Tanki Team - after 'sooner battle ending update' (or whatever its name is) the game became SO LAGGY that it is now unplayable - 2 fps on i7 machine in minimum window is RIDICULOUS!!! In comparison - Crysis 3 in fullHD goes on this computer at arond 70 fps. You REALLY NEED YOUR CODE TO BECAME MORE OPTIMISED. Btw. I play in Flash standalone player without any other apps running if that info migh help. Looking forward to next - more optimised updates :)

try this one: http://en.tankiwiki.com/Running_Tanki_Online_using_Standalone_Flash_Player it helped a lot when my i7 machine rendered barely 15fps on Firefox (DISASTER!) now it's around 50-60 and pings went down too for about 5-10 good luck

The predictable drops were a bad idea - tanker focus on the spots where crys are supposed to drop. I think developers should remove predictable drop spots (every one of them) OR at least these spots should appear shortly (1-2 secs) before box appears in the sky. I also hold that (depending on game intensity) 10 - 20 crystal boxes shoule be brought back so lower ranks are still able to get some crys. Without free crystals tanki community would decrease shortly. Anyway - every change made so far results in slower downloads, more lags and less fps. Maybe standalone version would fix that - flash is soo slow. Best wishes dev team :) What about narrowing the spread of ranks taking part in a battle, to f.ex. 4, so every tanker would have chance to fight with more less equal opponents.
