  1. Everything else on the scorecard was normal. I would have, had I seen it in time. I looked for that player in the next battle, but he had left.
  2. Yesterday, on the scorecard at the end of the battle, I saw a white dot where the person's rank should be, no name, but the player scored in 4th place out of 8 positions. What's that all about? No screenshot. I had already clicked-in to stay for the next battle. I was looking over my score and the team's score. I glanced at the enemy's standings and saw the white dot with no rank or name. The next battle started loading before I could get a screenshot.

    Are you suggesting that the prices on Tanki have been adjusted because it's supporting the development of Tanki X?

    Poll about computers

    I'm a little more sporadic. It depends on what I'm doing and how long I'll be on. If I'm working on a long term project that requires a lot of web surfing and I know I'll be on for several hours, I'll create a file for it and reboot once during the day and again in the evening, just to keep the signal fresh. If I'm working short term or just messing around, not doing anything important, like playing games, I'll let it go into sleep mode by itself but turn it off at supper time. If I want to use the computer in the evening, I know I'll have a fresh signal. When I got my first computer in 2002, I was pretty much in the dark about computers. I didn't know what dot com, dot gov or dot anything meant. A web was something a spider spun and a browser was someone walking through the store looking but not buying. I bought a book titled Computers for Dummies and started reading. It mentioned that a computer should be shut down at least 4 times a day, because over a short period of time, the signal begins to deteriorate rather quickly. The computer needed to be shut down to refresh the signal. I did that religiously for years. Since then computers have become more sophisticated and reliable, so they don't need to be shut down that often any more. It was a hard habit to break. A couple years ago, I read if you leave your computer on for long periods of time without using it, you're leaving the computer open for hackers, keyloggers, viruses sent out in bulk, and a few other nasty Trojans. True? Not true? I don't know. I have a good antivirus and anti-everything-else, so I shouldn't be too concerned. But I shut it down anyway if I won't be using it for an hour or more.

    New Supply: Flashbang Mine

    @deadtoyou.....When you made this suggestion, did you put yourself in the pursuing tank? Suppose this was implemented into the game. You are pursuing an enemy flag bearer and he detonates a flashbang. Is this something you would be happy with or curse the day you suggested it? Personally, I'm against it. I don't like the idea of being blinded, even partially, when playing this type of game. I know it's just a couple of seconds, but that would also blind me from seeing any other enemy and render me helpless to defend myself. It's just as bad as having a bad lag where your tank doesn't respond for a few seconds while being bombarded by the enemy. For 2 seconds, I would be out of touch with my environment and a sitting duck.

    Does paint affect which player you attack?

    Yeah, me too. I was referring to 's profile.

    In-game "Disasters"

    It wouldn't be total annihilation of a team, but would affect those within close range. The gas would disperse, but the effects would last a short time, like Firebird afterburn. Kinda like Firebird going into enemy base and throwing napalm on several team members. Firebird dies, but the effects remain. (Gas disperses but the effects remain).

    Does paint affect which player you attack?

    Yeah, especially when you drug yourself. Can you honestly say the same thing without drugging? Try playing a few battles and keep your fingers and other body parts away from the numbers.
  9. As proposed by OP, those who have teamed up cannot damage nor destroy each other. As you put it, it sounds like one team is playing TDM and the other is playing DM. Two different battle modes in the same battle. If both teams team up, then it's no longer DM but TDM.

    Similar to the Firebird after effects?
  11. Still sounds like TDM. What's the difference between TDM and DMT?

    Tanki Online theories

    There's a few ways this could be played. One idea I have is to start out in Esplande with the usual Red and Blue teams. After a specified time or if one team completely quits (for sake of discussion let's say red is the losing team), that triggers the breached wall. Gameplay: Blue and Red battle it out on Esplande. At the end of 15 minutes Blue is winning, but the clock doesn't end the Esplande battle. A timer signals the end of 15 minutes, making the wall penetrable for the winning team. (I'm not sure which wall in Esplande you want to be breached). However, they have to break down the wall with weapons while still battling Red. When the wall is passable, what's left of Blue will pass through to Silence, but Red cannot pass through and the battle is over for them. They collect their winnings and go home. Blue does not collect winnings. We are now in Silence, where another Red team is waiting. Those who died while trying to break through the wall can now respawn in Silence (no pun intended). The battle continues, as above. When the conditions are met for the Silence wall to be breached (as above), the winning team will go through to Massacre. The battle continues, as above. This time, when conditions are met, instead of penetrating a wall, the battle ends. All collect their winnings and go home. If Blue loses the second skirmish, they collect their winnings from the first and second battle and go home. Then Red advances through to Massacre. However, if Blue manages to win all three skirmishes, they will collect their winnings for all three. Blue has lost the second skirmish and the signal has gone off for the winning team (in this case Red) to breach the wall. They will still have to battle Blue while trying to penetrate the wall. Red goes through and Blue collects their winnings and goes home. Those on Red who have died trying to breach the wall, can now respawn in Massacre, where they face a new Blue team. This is the final battle. Whoever wins is declared the Superior team and collects not only their share of the battle fund, but also a bonus. The bonus could be extra crystals in the battle fund or a gold rain. Those who leave any battle forfeits their share of the battle fund, as in any other battle, and cannot rejoin until the wall has been breached. They can fill any empty space on either team in the next skirmish. However, if anyone leaves during the final battle, they cannot rejoin and collects nothing. During a battle, if space is open, any player can fill that slot, except for someone who has left. This prevents players quitting a losing team to join a winning team during the same skirmish. This battle mode can be very long, especially for those who stay for all three skirmishes.

    What conditions have to be met for the wall to be considered breached?

    Non-Buyer here. So, you think because I'm wearing the default paint, that I'm a noob? Paint is a big sign that says, "This is how I waste my money. I have nothing better to do with it than to buy this useless paint." Some players are Non-Buyers because they have more important things to do with their money, like every day needs to survive. And this makes me a noob? How Dare you!!!

    Doesn't matter to me in the least. The enemy is the enemy, no matter what color the tank is wearing. In DM I try to look for a tank being attacked and come in for the kill. A kill is a kill no matter what color the tank is wearing. The paint is the least of my worries.
