@Boef I just read the hot news about it. I am so delighted that hopper has been released in the garage. I will buy Hopper only when there is a 50% discount on hulls.

Thank you so much for releasing Hopper from the garage. Will Hopper remain in the garage forever?

I have completed just now my first set of daily missions and completed one weekly mission today. The size of free bonus stars for both daily and weekly missions are perfect. Players can not properly manage to complete challenges with ease, even without a premium account or stars pass for gold tier. I have to say that this mission update is the best that I have ever seen. That is all because of the stars rewards. I hope that stars for daily and weekly missions lasts permanently. On my first day streak today I have completed all three daily missions are I always do. I have earned a total of 150 stars. That is the quickest and best way to complete challenge levels fast. Before the update, players had to waste so much time playing, so earning stars were very long, tedious and difficult. It was very hard and time consuming to complete challenges in 15 days. Now it is fast and easy. I hope developers keeps the amount of stars this way. It is so much better because players who are rarely playing Tanki Online due to studying or work can now have a much great advantage and chance of completing challenges if they complete at least three daily missions every day. The only approach that I have with this update is the fact that developers did not increase the final Tankions reward for the silver tier to 1000 Tankions. If that's a little over the top, then 500 Tankions would be fair. However, there are ways to balance the amount of Tankions players earn at their ranks. Here is how that would work according to ranks: Below is a list of the reward is which would be suitable for each rank to earn a certain amount of Tankions when completing the Level 50 of the silver tier for challenges. See my balanced idea below: 1. Recruit ---------------------------- 10 Tankions 2. Private ---------------------------- 15 Tankions 3. Gefreiter -------------------------- 20 Tankions 4. Corporal -------------------------- 25 Tankions 5. Master Corporal ------------------ 30 Tankions 6. Sergeant -------------------------- 40 Tankions 7. Staff Sergeant -------------------- 50 Tankions 8. Master Sergeant ----------------- 60 Tankions 9. First Sergeant -------------------- 70 Tankions 10. Sergeant Major ----------------- 75 Tankions 11. Warrant Officer 1 --------------- 80 Tankions 12. Warrant Officer 2 --------------- 90 Tankions 13. Warrant Officer 3 ------------- 100 Tankions 14. Warrant Officer 4 ------------- 150 Tankions 15. Warrant Officer 5 ------------- 200 Tankions 16. Third Lieutenant -------------- 250 Tankions 17. Second Lieutenant ------------ 300 Tankions 18. First Lieutenant --------------- 350 Tankions 19. Captain ------------------------- 400 Tankions 20. Major --------------------------- 450 Tankions 21. Lieutenant Colonel ------------ 500 Tankions 22. Colonel ------------------------- 550 Tankions 23. Brigadier ----------------------- 600 Tankions 24. Major General ----------------- 650 Tankions 25. Lieutenant General ----------- 700 Tankions 26. General ------------------------ 750 Tankions 27. Marshal ------------------------ 800 Tankions 28. Fieldmarshal ------------------ 850 Tankions 29. Commander ------------------- 900 Tankions 30. Generalissimo ----------------- 950 Tankions 31. Legend ------------------------ 1000 Tankions That is it. If this is implemented as a small update improvement to the Tankions on the silver tier of challenges, players would earn a certain amount of Tankions suitable and available at their rank, only if they manage to complete Level 50 of the silver tier for challenges. Please developers accept my suggestion because it will be beneficial for all ranks, especially Legend ranks as well. Thank you.

I agree with the updated terms and agreements. Thanks for making Tanki Online better. Please keep going.

I will try my luck again on managing to earn Hopper from ultra containers. I hope to get this new hull, this time.

?

The shop will soon be disabled and closed from the Flash version soon. Expect that in a week or two.

@Viking4s I am off now to do my new daily and weekly missions for the first time. I will post feedback in the proper thread. ? This thread is only for discussing about the new Hopper hull.

@TheRealHZFJ Me too. I think that 1K (1000 Tankions) is a suitable amount. To make it more balanced out, how about having 1000 Tankions only for Legends. Each rank will have a different Tankions reward size on the silver tier. Recruits will get a base of 10 Tankions on the silver tier.

The mission changes are positive. There are still some room available for improvements though. Please try your best of luck on coming up with the very best ideas possible.

@Ap3xA1pha This blue paint for this challenge does look similar to the Far North and Badger-Badger paints. I guess to make it more different it would be better to have it shaded in green.

@Viking4s I guess you are correct. When we had M0 to M3, the first modification was M0. The best thing to do for the first MK modification is to call it MK0. The second MK modification should be called MK1.

Me too. I was about to say that I seen a paint similar to this surf one.

@Ap3xA1pha Yeah, I do understand the importance of coherent writing.

@cool12345 Who cares. That does not matter if Hopper has 90% chances winning on your team.

@AV-Gamers I have completed challenges before. Quite a lot of them. Me too, likes the changes in challenges and missions. That is a positive change. Now, what must change it the number of Tankions in the silver tier. That needs to increase so that free players can benefit on spending Tankions to buy stuff in the shop.

I do like the update.

@Ap3xA1pha No. That video above is an 8-bit game. That can even run on a 1990s Acorn Archimedes ARM processor running the RISC OS 3.11 operating system. I used this kind of gaming PC when I was at Linwood School in the United Kingdom. Please read the following links: Acorn computers: https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Acorn_Computers RISC OS: https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/RISC_OS Linwood School Campus: https://linwood.bournemouth.sch.uk/linwood/ ========================================================================================================================= Tanki Online needs a fairly powerful computer to run the HTML5 version of the game. However, HTML5 is being optimized and fine tuned to work on lower specification laptops with at least 2GB of RAM. That is laptops between 2003 to 2005.

@r_tix640 - @r_tix640 I am not asking for a freeze clone. What I am asking for is a freezing overdrive that has a freezing effect that would be much stronger than freeze. The freezing mechanics and physics would have to be reworked in a suitable way so that it behaves and looks different to the freezing effect of the Freeze turret. One idea of mine, how about the overdrive dropping snowflakes on the enemy tanks when activating it? Something like this, for instance. Let it snow, let it snow, let it snow.

@Ap3xA1pha A 15 day challenge puts too much stress on players that does not play Tanki Online long enough. Me too. I agree that monthly missions like in 2019 was suitable. For that developers would be required to double the rewards for each level in both the silver and gold tiers. Tankions on the silver tier would be taken into consideration too. That would also requires doubling if not more if that's not enough.

@Ap3xA1pha Yes, it is true and everything must be powerful and have a good performance. All the components in my PC are top perfect. That is the reason why playing Tanki Online and Universe Sandbox on my PC works so well and so fast.

Its not Ted's Big Day Out for Children in Need. That's in November in the UK. But... What are the cool news, announcements and updates coming out on this Friday's V-Log 273? I just can wait to hear the hot news.

Me too. I would like a brand new unique hovering hull that is medium weight. Preferably a freezing solid overdrive would be very ideal. The only thing that would be an opposite to Hopper's overdrive is the freezing overdrive of the new hull.

@wolverine848 No. Don't get rid of the 1st weekly mission. That is a bad idea. I prefer your second option but make it in the top 3 places in any team 15x. @MetalRaze The amount of stars could be reduced to 2000 stars or increase the number of stars earned in daily and weekly missions, plus stars earned in matchmaking battles.

@wolverine848 Your idea is great, but I prefer that the stun effect for Hopper remains in its overdrive. The reason behind that is because the stun effect makes Hopper's overdrive more unique. I like it that way, so please keep the stun effect for Hopper's overdrive. The best suggestion that you said secondly is to introduce another medium weight hull. Preferably, I would suggest a hovering hull that stays on the ground like Ares, but instead hovers higher from the ground. This new hull would be cool with an overdrive that freezes enemies solid, rather than burning them. That would be the opposite to Hopper's burning and stun overdrive. This new hull would have an overdrive that freezes enemy tanks solid and causes the tanks engines to stall for 5 to 10 seconds, and then the enemies would restart their engines, but remain both damaged by the overdrive and a lack of moving around until the enemies gets killed.
